QUOTE(quickman @ Jul 15, 2005 -> 01:55 PM) JR was a key leader in the 93 strike/hold out. Glavine I believe is the main leader for active players for the players union. It was 1994...and Steff is right. It was Schilling.

ONLY LOSERS GO TO GAMES ALONE!!!! YOU'RE NOT A LOSER ARE YOU???? Actually, I have. One time the park was so empty, I pretended they were playing the game just for me!

Why would Gardenhire start Boone in the 3-hole?? He hasn't hit well all year. Why put that pressure on him? Oh well...Good for us.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jul 14, 2005 -> 10:46 AM) If somehow you think you can divorce baseball from math (and hence; statistics), then you're gonna run into some problems along the way. My mistake for thinking it was too obvious for green.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 11:15 AM) http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=100...23an5M&refer=us For some odd reason the tax revenues are increasing at a rate way higher than projected, even after everyone said tax cuts wouldn't raise revenues and create jobs... And for a little fun with numbers, a look at tax revenues before and after the tax cuts. http://www.poorandstupid.com/2005_07_10_ch...111027505546464 I was told, when joining Soxtalk, that there'd be NO math.

QUOTE(Wong & Owens @ Jul 14, 2005 -> 07:53 AM) Baldwin had an outstanding 1st half in 2000. I think he had 10 or 11 wins by the ASB. Our top three pitchers in the first half of 2000 were, in order, Baldwin, Eldred, Sirotka... Due to injury, we started Jim Parque in the playoffs against Seattle. :puke

That's him... If he's healthy, he's a solid hitter. But where would he play? He's a DH/1B With Gload coming up, that doesn't give him any place to play. But he could be a good insurance option. Again, if he is 100%

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 04:53 PM) I was there buddy, in the pavilion, 15th row. Great Show except for Bowie cutting itshort due to illness. I was just gonna ask if you heard Prick's 2001 album, The Wreckard. I didnt even know there was another album until I did some research lately. It is STRANGE. Some really good stuff, some stuff way out there. I have a few Lucky Pierre songs on my Ipod as well. I didnt know Reznor was a part of that band, I only thought he appreciated it and brought Kevin McMahon into Nothing records because of his appreciation. Yeah he was involved in Lucky Pierre. I was in the pavillion box seats. Great Show I liked the Wreckard, not as much as the earlier stuff. You're right...it's way out there.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 03:49 PM) I like that, i never thought of it that way. Are you a fan of Prick? I never understood why they didnt do as well as they could have. Yes. I think they sounded too much like other bands coming out at that time, to the masses. The lead singer(only member) was part of Trent Reznor's first band, Lucky Pierre. They were part of one the best concerts I ever attended. Prick Nine Inch Nails David Bowie At the World Music Center It was Incredible!

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 02:51 PM) It seemed like a lot of people weren't getting it, so I had to clear the air. Actually, I was implying he is a Big Bust.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 02:06 PM) I have grown away from that stuff nowadays, but I am still a huge NIN fan. I will still throw the Wax Trax stuff in every now and then for a glimpse into my high school angry days. What do you think of the recent NIN music(Fragile and With Teeth)? I really enjoy Trent's new stuff. There is a maturity there, that wasn't there before. It's less about him and more about the music as whole. Very organic.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 01:58 PM) 1000 homo dj's, the KLF, early ministry. Good hard industrial and alternative sounds. You are talking my language. Some of the best of that Genre. Great stuff! KMFDM, Thrill Kill Kult, Rev Co...

QUOTE(Steff @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 09:54 AM) LMAO.. they didn't think he was gonna make it past Anyway's so I got the "might want to come get him" call. We all went to the hotel and played cards all night. As wasted as he was he still won over $500. Lucky bastard.. . I got a new purse out of the deal though.. ::cough::and a loving husband, too::cough:: But I'm sure the purse was REALLY nice!

QUOTE(Finkelstein @ Jul 13, 2005 -> 09:03 AM) Anyone have, or been to, any good bachelor parties that they would like to share? Please keep it clean, as he has made it clear that "live entertainment" is NOT an option. LaGrange, IL has a ceramic art store. You can choose and paint your own coffee mugs!!
