Bring back Take Me Out to the Ballgame.

Shouldn't she really have an account of her own?

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 04:33 PM) Why is smoking such a no/no? That kind of confused me. I don't smoke, but going to parties and bars regularly, I'm around it. I also just got back from the oral surgeon. Another dry socket. I only got the bottoms taken out, and even though it took three months, both became infected and got dry socket. It's incredible, it truly is. My surgeon said that he hadn't seen somebody get dry socket in both bottom sides in sixteen years and never in his practice has he seen someone get a dry socket 2-3 months after the surgery was completed. Just goes to show you how impacted my wisdom teeth were. Be thankful, my man (Heads), you lucked out. It think it's because of tar particles and stuff. The soreness started to get a little worse, but then it was time for my next Combunox and I'm feeling frisky again.

Yay, you're still alive!

Just to show that Soxishness is extending....covering a playoff baseball game here in NE Iowa....when a batter strikes out I started hearing people say "He Gone."

Novocaine just started to wear off. Got some soreness, but not bad at all.

I have trouble with drooling....but the Combunox had me with a nice buzz going in. The nitrous took like a minute to work but it was that feeling like if where someone is talking to you right after you are waking up. "Yup. Uh huh." My dentist is one of two in town. He's known us for a while, so I asked him "you gonna give me a blow by blow?" and he said sure. He asked if I felt the nitrous and I said "I'm feeling good about Iowa State athletics" and he said it's working. I'm trying to figure out when the horrendous part is supposed to be. Are you getting more pulled today or what?

I mean in all seriousness that it was a peaceful and calming experience. Might have been the nitrous. If you know the dentist, ask him/her their thoughts on the Bulss signing Wallace or something.

3 of mine were below the gum and the other one was poking out at the corner. Maybe my dentist is just good, or yours suck?

All four at once. The only pain was one shot he said by each top one that would hurt a little. The lowers weren't bad at all. I came in expecting the worst...to where I didn't care....to now where I feel sleepy. I was done in 20 minutes...

Well, that went about as well as possible. About an hour before, I took my first painkillers. At that point I felt lighter and all in all pretty good. I went there and laid down and I took nitrous. That's neat stuff. I felt all tingely. I asked him to give me a play by play and he told me what he was doing, which was neat. I thought it was cool to listen to. He'd be like "I'm using a scalpel to make an incision.....I can see the tooth....now I'm gonna use this thing that sounds like a drill to section the tooth." The best part was when he said "That went about as perfectly as we could have hoped." About halfway through I asked him his thoughts on Iowa State basketball, or as I said it, "whaf fah fur foffs ahn iafa sfafe basfeffafal." It was kinda neat. Since it didn't hurt, it was interesting. Now for the being lazy.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jul 11, 2006 -> 10:42 AM) Thanks jackass, now there is water on my keyboard. It's the painkillers that I just started for wisdom teeth. I'm on Combunox, which is the stuff Rush was hooked on. Now, he's roughly the size on an oxen, so I think it's a little a lot for me...but I'm currently feeling cautiously optomistic about life, ISU football and the issues with nuclear weapons and missiles in North Korea.

He should veto bears. Damn Godless killing machines anyways.ssss

The reason I'm fine with Ortiz as a DH is because even though he doesn't play the field, he has a massive effect on the outcome of Red Sox games. Not saying Thome and Dye don't, but the Red Sox would be third in the East without him.

AL Most Valuable Player: David Ortiz AL Cy Young Award Winner: Roy Halladay AL Rookie of the Year: Francisco Liriano AL Manager of the Year: Jim Leyland AL Comeback Player of the Year: Jim Thome AL Biggest Surprise: Detroit Tigers AL Biggest Disappointment: Cleveland Indians AL Game of the Year: Yesterday's Red Sox/White Sox game NL Most Valuable Player: Albert Pujols NL Cy Young Award Winner: Brandon Webb NL Rookie of the Year: Dan Uggla NL Manager of the Year: Joe Girardi NL Comeback Player of the Year: Nomar Garciaparra NL Biggest Surprise: Cincinatti Reds NL Biggest Disappointment: Atlanta Braves NL Game of the Year: Haven't seen enough. White Sox specific categories: Best Hitter: Jim Thome Best Pitcher: Bobby Jenks Most Valuable Player: Jermaine Dye Biggest Surprise: Thornton Biggest Disappointment: Javy Vazquez Game of the Year: 19 innings Favorite Moment: Gooch's GS after the fight.

I must be the only one who could care less about Liriano pitching for the AL to win.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 10:22 PM) Good points by everyone on BA, i was surprised that I didnt get ripped apart for my comments on AROW and bA> Someone else said it best, but we aren't losing games because we have Brian instead of Aaron.

Damn you Acosta.

Brian is hitting .333 in July. I think that's picking it up.

Jenks did pitch 3 innings yesterday. It makes sense for him not to throw.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 01:09 PM) B+ POSITIVES - Unbelievable offensive explosion this year, Jermaine Dye and Jim Thome have appearantly decided to join the ranks of the elite in the AL offensively (nothing new for Thome) and Joe Crede has been just ricockulous on both O and D. - Classic AJ is back and it's made this team so much better. - Contreras has gone a long way to prove that the second half of last year was a fluke. Awesome. - Brian Anderson has shown me so much in CF this year, I never liked him as a prospect and seriously questioned his defense, considering how some people talked about him. He has proven to be one of the best defensive players in baseball for the half season, simply unbelievable. - Even with all their flaws this team has still managed to stay only 2 game back of a team that is winning at a ridiculous pace. NEGATIVES - Reliance on Thome at the beginning of the year could have crippled this team. - Inconsistent bullpen for a good portion of the season thus far, though the pen has been pretty solid of late. - Horrid starting pitching considering the expectations. - Fundamentals have been pretty sloppy as well, this team can't bunt for s*** it seems and the baserunning has been subpar. ^^

Yay. Do the same with all of them.

Why would SF sell their best pitcher while still in the NL west race?

We have 3 legit team MVP's. That's rather neat.
