Man, finally I am back. First though, I shall tell you the story of why I was exiled from this board.. I got suspended 10 months ago for a personal attack on a poster that I dont think anyone in this world likes, (Dougly), and not being able to read the board because of that I had to reset all my cookies to view it. Well, I dont know if any of you have ever realized how much it sucks seeing something that you just HAVE to say something about and not being able to. Well I got back on the first name I ever had on this board and started making a few posts here and there, tryin to keep it down, and got caught. Which was about 2 months or so after the suspension, which led to the ban, which has lasted since that time till now. Now that I got out why I was banned in the first place. (Tryin to avoid all the "What did you do?" questions.) I just wanna say that I know it was a mistake to do that and I should have just waited out the suspension, but, im the kind of person who sees something they have to let their opinion out about and I gotta do it now. It was the wrong desicion and I paid for it. I have a lot of people that I am friends with now over the internet because of this site, people that I talk to at least everyday on AIM who I wouldnt even KNOW if I didnt ever come to this site. It sucked having to read the board the past few months and just feeling crappy cause you cant post on it. Even though I could have just made a new name and posted if I wanted to, it wouldnt be the same if I had to hide and pretend to be someone else and not get to discuss things about how I really felt so people wouldnt know who I was. I had talked to Jason about being let back on and everytime I did I felt bad like I was bothering him and eventually I just gave up because I didnt wanna feel I was annoying him about it. I am just glad that I was given another chance. Now I know that there are people on the board who dont like me, and thats fine, cuz I know im a jackass. Sometimes. And it would have probably been easy for them to say "f*** that I dont want him back on here." and that would have been the end of that but obviously they could put that aside and let me have another chance and thats also something else that I am appreciative for in this whole process. Im seriously not the type of person who is out to just piss everyone off and cause problems. I dont even think I was that bad of a poster, seriously I wasnt even aware so many people hated my ass haha. Either way, not being able to post on here for almost a year sucked, its not really something that I want to experiance again. I know I am now on Soxtalk Parole, but you dont really need to worry im not gonna be a douche. I just want to get back to postin on the board and talking with my friends like I had been doin from early 2003 till late 2005 before I f***ed it up and got the boot. Im not gonna let that happen again. So again, thanks to those who made it possible for me to come back (Jason, Kalapse, and Whichever Admins decided that they could tolerate me one more time.) I do appreciate it and I am happy that I am now back. Thanks, Carl

QUOTE(Randar68 @ Jul 21, 2005 -> 11:41 AM) And take walks at a high rate. I dont see why he couldnt hit for a higher average eventually this kid is young and skipped to AA.. I think he is gonna be real good

Duque and Contreras worry me, ide really like us to add a starter here before the deadline... We definatly need one, and also a bat

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 21, 2005 -> 11:35 AM) Link Not saying I agree or disagree with the list, but it's interesting. Folks, Chris Young is catching on -- ranked as our highest prospect on the list at 28th, and here's the comments on him: If you don't feel like scrolling through the list, the Sox have five players on there -- Young, Anderson, McCarthy, Gio, and Sweeney. Sweeney comes in at 94, and everyone else is lower (meaning better, according to Roto). They act like a .265 average is pathetic.. That doesnt bother me at all if hes gonna hit HR's, Doubles, Play good defense, and steal some bases...

I would like my name to be changed to Von Doom, thank you very much

QUOTE(Soxnbears01 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 04:11 PM) guys watch this video, hilarious http://www.depotboy.com/downloads/maestrosmoves.wmv apparently, you can recruit 7 INCH players, watch them him in action, he's the HB whoa wtf... haha

Just wanna point out to the guy who said there was no way we would score 3 runs, we have scored 4 since then.. and still threatening COME ON GOOCH!!!!!!!!!!! edit: D'OH

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 04:06 PM) have a little faith guys Thats hard to get around here

QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:53 PM) Just an off day. It happens. On July 20th it might happen to us for only the 31st time... pretty damn good, IMO. Should be everyones opinion, not just yours.. We just didnt have it today (so far but Kong just walked) but theres no reason to get down.. I really think we need a bat, get it done KW

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:12 PM) No where to play him. I do like Lawton as well though. He can play OF or DH giving people rests where they need them.. who knows, im sure we could find a way

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:11 PM) While I agree that we need some offensive help and it is showing today, I'm not blaming our poor performance today entirely on our offense. Nate Robertson ain't bad. He's actually pretty good. Gotta give him some credit. I wouldnt mind trying to pick up Lawton from the Pirates... the guy draws walks and has some pop, not to mention he is a LH bat..

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:09 PM) Holy f*** are these at bats pathetic. LOL @ you.. one more baybeeeeee

Widger with a bomb.. only need one to tie now... still impossible?

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 03:01 PM) Oddly we were near the league lead last year in runs scored also. Scoring runs is a bad stat. You can score 10 runs one game, and then score 1 for a few nights and look like a good average. Still shows that we are capeable of scoring runs..

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 02:56 PM) I never expect our pathetic offense to score 3 or more runs in a game. When it actually happens, I'm pleasantly surprised. Thats kinda odd seeing how were 10th in the league in runs and 6th in the AL... it is possible no matter how you wanna look at it.. like I said its been done

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 02:54 PM) I'm going to remember this post. uh oh, last time Rowand pulled one of those we came back and won..

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 02:53 PM) We're going to have to score 3 runs to win this game. That ain't happening. so with 4 innings left to play you dont think we can score 3 runs?.. Thats not a very good way to look at situations like this, especially when its been done numerous times this year

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 02:51 PM) Thanks for s***ting your pants in front of another big crowd, guys. Losing 5 out of 6 at home is awful. Relax man, its only the top of the 6th and its been proven we are real good at coming back and winning

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jul 20, 2005 -> 12:13 AM) TRU, is Vincent Young good in this game or what? It's funny... just run the option, no need to juke, stiff arm, or nothing. He just runs around people. And if they try to tackle him, he plows. My friends get so pissed. Just like real life though.. I mean just look at the Michigan game, he won that game with his legs.. Hes a brute

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) He has a partially torn rotator cuff. Proof Kinda risky, no?

LETS GO SOX!!!

Im worried about his arm.. isnt he damaged?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 19, 2005 -> 04:12 PM) Welcome back s*** head. Yes, I appreciate that I have some NCAA talkin to catch up on

Good move for the Rockets, I know a lot of people down here were a little confused at why they picked Head (I liked the pick) they thought they should have taken Simien but now with Swift in the mix it should make their team a whole lot better..
