QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ May 17, 2005 -> 12:12 PM) ^^^^^^ And I, huge dork, liked the Quantom Leap series finale--but I like EVERYTHING about that show. That one had me in tears - I loved that show.

4/16 VS Mariners - win 2-1 5/15 VS Orioles - loss 6-2

While I am a big fan of Konerko's, I can't take another at bat of his. :puke I keep hoping he'll pull out of this, but...I don't know.

QUOTE(BobDylan @ May 16, 2005 -> 03:04 PM) I have to warn everyone every year that I'm no cup of tea after a White Sox loss. Brian has finally figured out that if the Sox lose, just stay away for about a half hour and then I am fine. He is the same way when Ricky is knocked out of a race or the Mariners lose (not so much the Royals as he has come to expect them to lose lol).

QUOTE(Steff @ May 16, 2005 -> 02:59 PM) If you can't find one.. buy a white one from the tux place and have it dyed the color you want. They'll do that (sell the vest)? Cool! I will ask about that when we go in this week to pick out the tuxes.

Does anyone know of a store that rents off the wall color vests for for tuxes (either with the tux or by itself)? Brian is looking to get a bright green (lime, green apple, something like that) vest for his tux for the wedding. We found a possibility, but it is for prom season (we are going in to ask about it this week). Everywhere we have looked has been hunter green (which is what the groomsmen, ushers and dads will be wearing), but can't find a stand out green for him. Thanks all!

On network tv I follow Family Guy (and American Dad until it goes over to Adult Swim). On cable I follow: Good Eats, Deadliest Catch, Myth Busters, Iron Chef, Cold Case Files and American Justice. I am sure there are a couple others, but that is what comes to mind.

I read that a few minutes ago. The Good Lord only knows what other things she did to those kids. I pray for the brother that has to live with this the rest of his life.

QUOTE(Steff @ May 16, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) I'm stuck in the weekend still. Too much drinking and not enough sleep. :sleep Brian was telling me the same thing lol (he was downing those apple pucker and smirnoff drinks on Saturday lol)

I think so. The one thing is odd is that they will wait until he is better to put him to death. I think I understand why, it just sounds odd.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 16, 2005 -> 02:07 PM) The problem is that we have no first basemen on this roster. Pauly is our 1B until Gload gets back. That sucks - I thought he was back already (oops lol).

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ May 16, 2005 -> 02:01 PM) That's just wrong... Why is that wrong? They said something like that on Friday's post game show (I think it was Friday - it was the only post game show I caught this weekend).

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 16, 2005 -> 11:26 AM) I dont know why you put that in Green. I have just about had enough of Pauly and his "new" stance and the plate. He is in a contract year, and cannot make contact with the ball. Something is wrong with him, and if I was KW, I would be either shopping him around, or definately NOT working on signing him. Paul's approach at the plate is not only worrisome, but lacks true commitment to the way this team is trying to play baseball. K's and dp's do not fit into our offensive approach. I would be fine if he did not see the field in the next few games. I agree with this 110% (keeping in mind that I am a huge PK fan when I say I agree that he needs to be benched for a little while at least).

I was at the game with Brian and his family (a group of 12 total). Keep in mind Brian is not a Sox fan (I think I am starting to get him to cheer for the Sox as I can hear the game in the garage occasionally and he seems to be saying quite a few positive things about the team). During the game he looked around and said that he thought it was packed - that took a lot to come from him lol. I don't know what the attendance was yesterday as FMIL made us leave in the beginning of the 8th (she was driving his sister and us so we had to go when she said so lol).

Is there an available stat on inherited runners that were allowed to score?

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 16, 2005 -> 07:27 AM) I think Konerko will wake up when Frank is back in the lineup. The last week or two he'll have a game where it looks like he is breaking out and then a few games or so where he is 0-fer again. He's got to get it together soon.

I had about an hr to myself this weekend (watching Family Guy and American Dad) and now I am absolutely exhausted... We had a rehearsal dinner on Friday, the wedding Saturday (and being a DD was tough - I think I was the only one at the reception who didn't drink...that is, outside of a friend who is due any day now). On Sunday, we had to be up early because his niece was receiving an award for an essay she wrote about her dad at a ceremony outside of the Cell. All of Brian's niece and nephews were there and there is one that is a holy terror (read: everyone outside of Brian is afraid to discipline the kid). That and the Sox looking bad made for a long game. After that we went to dinner at Bourbon Street (115th and Kedzieish lol) with his mom and sister...more stressful conversation, joy. I am so damned tired right now the coffee I am drinking isn't doing a thing for me and I forgot my yogurt at home . I am hoping my trip to the gym after work will help to charge me up for the week.

QUOTE(The Critic @ May 16, 2005 -> 03:17 AM) You know, I wanted to be able to get into Arrested Development, just because I've seen so many people talk about how much they like it, but I just don't enjoy it. Something about the pace of the show or something, I don't know what it is, but I'm just bored by it. That makes two of us.

While at the game yesterday, I was less than happy when I saw Cotts was the one brought in...not that it matter much considering the trouble the Sox had stringing two hits together yesterday.

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ May 14, 2005 -> 10:00 AM) Screw my friends tonight, I'm staying home to watch this beauty. I wish I could say the same - I am stuck going to a wedding reception (Brian is a groomsman so I can't get out of this one). That means I miss the race and the game me ->

This is a thing of beauty:

Happy bday Bea! lol

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 13, 2005 -> 12:25 PM) I am going Sunday and can't wait. Ditto!

Paul Konerko?! That is some kind of extra strength crack they have there.

We have PS2 at home at love it. My brother has XBox. I can't say I was overly impressed by it, but to each their own.
