QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 09:30 AM) I thought it was just OK. There were no memorable lines like in episodes past. f*** James Woods!!

Let's win another series, boys. It all starts with game 1!

QUOTE(sin city sox fan @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 01:23 PM) I'm all for giving BA a chance to succeed.....I've supported him quite a bit on here and am not ready to run him out of town (as many people have suggested). However, if time shows that he needs more seasoning in AAA, Duffy could be a more adequate replacement than any other options currently available (I don't like Mack or Ozuna in CF as I think we need something better there defensively). I don't even know if Chris Duffy is that solid defensively (maybe thats why he lost his job early in the year?)....however, I just thought it might be a cheap alternative to keep an eye on if a move needs to be made. Making a change just to "make a change" is not always a good idea.

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 01:04 PM) I READ THAT ARTICLE!!!! The article indeed states that the Chicago Fire wanted BLUE seats because BLUE doesnt appear as empty on TV. This topic on the other site would get dozens banned for talking about blue seats/attendance. Dude, you got issues

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 12:18 PM) I remember someone from the Tribune, whom I wont name, saying the very same things. Said my Media Watches were biased themselves, the numbers prove nothing, the numbers could be wrong (despite my challenging them to check out my numbers-Got No Reply), im just jealous of the Tribune, Trib doesnt strong-arm anyone, Trib doesnt support the Cubs (despite reports of Andy McPhail and Jim Hendry Cussing Out and Verbally Abusing Trib Reporter Paul Sullivan) Trib is a legitimate news source, Why is everyone else enamored with the Cubs then, Southtown is Pro-Sox why arent you mentioning them, Why arent you including small newspapers like the Bridgeport News or the Jonesville Gazette those papers have as much "influence". I laughed and laughed and laughed and laughed. Was this "someone" 6' tall and named Harvey?

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 11:46 AM) Thats WHY its called the Chicago NewsMedia Watch. Not the Suburban NewsMedia Watch. Those papers cater to the suburbs of Chicago. the Tribune Entertainment Corporation has much more CLOUT than the 3 papers combined. This is the CHICAGO newsmedia watch. Not the NATIONAL NEWSMEDIA WATCH. Now you're concerned with details... Funny.

I was able the see it early in it's initial run in 2004 at the Shubert Theatre with Hank Azaria, David Hyde-Pirece and Tim Curry. It's a wonderful show, crisp and funny. Since I saw the show early in its conception, I saw two musical numbers/scenes that have been cut from show since that time. One was called "Burn Her!", which was a 20s style dance number during the Witch trial scene. Very funny, it inclused digs at the show "Wicked" Another was right before the cow launching. The castle turned around and the actress who playes the Lady of the Lake came out dressed as the cow and sang a French-style ballad called "Adieu" . A side note, My college buddy Jeff played Patsy in the current tour that you just saw.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 11:14 AM) Here we go again... Hangar had a huge thread on WSI about the seats change. He is convinced the team dragged its feet, despite the fact that people showed him threads about temperatures for setting chemicals, etc. Now we'll end up with the same discussion here. That's why I sort of avoided that topic in my response. Did you know the Tribune Company owns all the grean seats in the midwest?!? Conspiracy...

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 10:42 AM) He was a hitting coach and a 1B coach in our organization about 10 years ago. Papa Jack! Ron Jackson QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 11:03 AM) Didn't the Sox want to trade for his kid???? Michael? He already has his one glove.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 11, 2006 -> 08:56 PM) If he was more than a mediocre coach, the 80's Bears win 3 Super Bowls, but that's a different argument. Dude, you really need to start doing some research and checking facts before you keep making these blanket statements. :headshake

Sometimes green is not needed, Guys. This is obviously a joke...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2006 -> 09:53 AM) The Club level sucks at seating The Club level also sucks at hitting when runners are on 3rd with 1 out!

I was shocked this wasn't a thread about how the CLub Level "Sucked and was Overrated"

QUOTE(The Critic @ Jun 11, 2006 -> 10:15 AM) Of course, Hangar will tell you that Google only catalogues negative Sox references....

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 11, 2006 -> 08:48 PM) √ Greg Walker √ Juan Uribe √ Joe Crede √ Hawk/DJ and Farmer/Singleton You're about 8% through the organization now, keep up the good work! Bravo! I've come to realize if its a thread started by Shoota its a knee-jerk, reactionary, negative one without any facts or reasoning to support it. They are amusing to read though!

We're all still waiting...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 06:30 PM) I am still wanting to see your answers for these two posts... With the first one, I want to see all of the numbers that you have complied so far. I guess you have back to 2002 so far, right? I'd still like to see them all and dig into the trends involved. To me I would guess that if this were a true conspiracy, there would be more of an effort to put down the Sox when they are doing better, mostly through either writing more Cub stories, or less Sox stories. For the second quote, I still want to see how you can explain the contractiction of your accounting methods. ::sits next to SS2k5 on the couch:: I'm waiting too, Hanger... Plushie Patrol!!

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 03:37 PM) I never said that ........... Did you tell them to stop?

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 08:01 AM) Ahem...after seeing coverage on this all over the place, I would like to go on record as to saying: I DON'T GIVE A f*** ABOUT BRAD AND ANGELINA AND THEIR DAMN BABY!!! What about the "Baby Brangelina" title that confused you to enter this thread?

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 10:12 AM) My question to all of you is ......................... Would anyone be interested in a Patio Party? this website would get a discount on admission. I will lead this if enough of you want to go. How come I feel this would be like a time-share seminar? Come to a patio-party, but first you'll have to listen to a lecture on the evils of the Chicago media before you get to drink or eat.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 08:28 AM) Ah now it all adds up. Its obvious the guy has been "stalking" Crede for a while now if he has created a whole new category to give him ammo to go after the guy. Another agenda, another stalker, :headshake I agree Mike... You know I am getting sick and tired of these reactionary posts to specific situations and their subsequent trashing of good players on our team. First the Thome post , now Crede. Their history and stats speak for themselves. to Shoota: Crede is one of the BEST defensive 3rd baseman in the game. Period. You have NO facts to back up your claim except your twisted agenda.

QUOTE(tealeafreaderii @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 11:56 PM) this is just a rumor from Murphy on 670... but he said... that BMac for eyre and Howry is a possibility... Thats just Murph trying to pull a reverse Garland/Kartchner trade... Not biting

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 10:42 PM) With a runner on 3rd and 1 out on the season Jim Thome is 5-9 w/ one 2B, two HRs, 13 RBIs, two BBs and a 1.833 OPS. How is that not good enough for you?

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 10:19 PM) Like last night, Absolut, Dye, and Jenks come up HUGE!! Unlike last night, our starting pitcher and Thome are solid. Like last night, it's a huge 4-3 win over the Tigers. Tigers=0-5 against us. Let's make it 0-6 and a 0.5 game lead for the good guys in the Central tomorrow night. :headshake

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 7, 2006 -> 01:09 PM) Well if were up to me, Bus Driver Bob's theme song would be a lot less catchy Wait... You haven't had the full on assault on the senses that is also known as THE WIGGLES!!!
