Murcie...you a smart man.

not bad Porz, not bad...

That thunder gets f***ing loud when you live wwithin a half mile of a radio tower, 1/4 of a water tower that is the next tallest thing, and a couple of blocks from stadium lites and the hospital that get struck regularly...

I've heard them probably about once or twice a year...once though I was outside in my driveway because I wanted to see how humid it felt...I look up...there's a goddamn funnel cloud forming over my house...so being the genius i am...i go in the house to get my dad to come out and look at it...it was freaky...

I'm sure we can set something up for that. I'm also planning on Sox Fans Bowl Pix III .... I need to get the webpage updated with the new bowls and such...I think more people are likely to do the bowl one cause they only need to make their picks once... I'll talk to Jas as far as what we'll do with the those things...maybe murc's board...unless he don't want them.

We had ungodly lightning and rain....best thing to have during a storm is like a Uniden scanner...scan the fire/emergency frequency...you can hear spotter chatter...

Get that motherf***er Porzio win numba one. KC losing...Minny winning

It was f***ed up yesterday...there was a tornado northwest of town, it pulled back up into a funnel/wall cloud going over Oelwein....we were under a tornado warning for quite a while...then the stuff headed south towards Cedar Rapids (which, if any of you know, is a big city by Iowa standards -2nd largest at about 175,000) I was watching...they got hit by an F2 Tornado...speeds downtown from 72 to 100 mph winds...no one was hurt...it was really cool watching it on tv when stuff started going nuts.

s***...the starting pitcher changed like three times since i wrote this?

E-mail me...either alex@soxnet.net or alex@futuresox.com and I'll resize it...

I think what Murcie means is that there are 2 official Soxtalk leagues....they are baseball leagues.... Football is seperate...there's no official football league....WSC has one, but Murc says that the baseball leagues will be the only official Soxtalk sports leagues? Did I get that right?

Actually I think it does.... My coolness in my town and on here are two different things....greatly different.

I was impressed with his last start... I think we could get another strong start out of him...because I do not wasnt to see Wright starting again for a long while.... I'd like to see, if we fall out of contention, the Sox trying Rauch out again, too.

Frankly, it doesn't matta to me.

Good times...

No...just implied oral consent...

Like how soooo near?

Come on Seattle! You've f***ed us over enough in the past...get one for us today...

You mean the f***ed-up middle one?

Left Oelwein at 10 AM, drove down to Cedar Rapids. We left CR at 11:30 on a Tri-State Tours bus, and we watched the movies Shanghai Knights and Ferris Buellers Day Off en route to Chicago. Once we got to the suburbs, it seemed like it took forever to even get near downtown. For someone who has only been there a few times, the area was huge. We got on the Dan Ryan and we neared the Cell about 3:40. Our bus driver didn't take the right turn, as she tried to go into the wrong parking lot. The bus was too short for a bridge, so we had to go around the park. It took a half hour and a trip thru Chinatown to get back to where we were supposed to enter under the sign by the Dan Ryan. We got in and we were escorted to the patio area where we took part in a buffet. The lines were horrible and so was the wait. $30 for a buffet, and most people only got a burger and hot dogs. That ain't going to happen again. We finally got to our seats about 10 minutes before the game started, otherwise I would have had some closeups of the players. I sat Sec. 110, row 9, seat 9. I got a nice view of the field, but it was hard to see to home plate over a lot of heads and people walking down the aisle. Frankly, I was a little a scared when it wass bottom 7 and we didn't have a hit. The park went crazt when Konerko hit his single, and the place went bezerk when Graffy went deep. When it got towards the eighth I went to the fan deck. The view was spectacluar, but it was really crowded. I prefered the lower deck and I got some kick-ass pictures from there. I went back and taped the final out of the game, and then sat back for the fireworks. They were spectacular and i took some video of those which turned out well. We got out of the park at about 9:30 and back in CR at about 1:45 am. I got home at 2:50 and started watching hilites of the game until about 3:45 when I fell asleep. It was a good day.

5-4 KC Mabry goes deep.
