I think it has effected my son, too. He hit his head playing this weekend and said "D'OH!" true. I laugh at them too. They're funny.

She had a donger. :haha

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Feb 20, 2005 -> 02:44 PM) And how many arm surgeries have they had in their careers? What about Schillings ankle? That is a big deal. I think he will be healthy, yet there's always a lil chance.

A few things...El Duque for 100 innings is still good for 100 innings. That is a positive and if he gives us what he gave the Yankees last year, then it will be nice to have. Plus he has a ton post season experience, which not too many guys on the Sox really have. Dealing with the Tigers (they were mentioned a little earlier in the thread), they have Jason Johnson as their second starter. There's a guy who couldn't cut it for the Orioles. Bonderman is the guy who kills me too. Numbers similar to Garland, yet Bonderman gets his cock rubbed by everybody, and Garland just gets ripped apart. Garland is our fifth starter, not our first. Everyone is allowed to go off "what ifs?" except us and the Twins. The Twins have been the best, and deserve it. The White Sox don't get to use the what ifs the Indians and Tigers do: What if Bonderman is awesome? What if he's not? What if all the Tribe pitchers have career years again? What if they all go back sucking (Elarton? Haha. Westbrook took awhile) What if Aaron Boone never fully heals, who knows if he will ever get back to where he was? What if Ronnie Belliard sucks again? He wasn't exactly an AS when he was on the Rockies. You just don't hear it for the Sox, it is always assumed they will suck, be worse, and so on. I do not care what everybody writes right now. All I know is I like the team we have here, and I am excited going into the season.

Haha, thanks guys. What a crazy night. We got trashed off Naty Light then keg beer. We were drunk by the time we went out. Then played some beer pong and got even worse. Eventually I got jacked in the face by some jackasses who were just looking to cause trouble. I am not sober yet...

Teamo Supremo!

Question...our is still weekly right?

QUOTE(Goldmember @ Feb 15, 2005 -> 07:33 PM) uploaded it elsewhere= I really like that one.

Damn.

I will probably see one game at the Cell this year, maybe two. I also plan on seeing the Sox when they come to Comerica later in the season (say August or September).

My fav.

I liked it better as Sports Bar.

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Feb 12, 2005 -> 03:30 AM) Same here Steve. Along with HotSosChick, Steff, RPS, and a short list of others. What ever happened to people like BJ Marte and some of the older posters? Dunno, everyone has kinda stopped. Jas posts less, I know I do, I don't see many of anyone who were around but SS, DB, Fanof14, and some others. Steff is only here during the day, and some people have changed their names to make them hard to tell who they are. How much easier a year and a half ago was.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 12, 2005 -> 03:30 AM) Gees thanks Steve, u deserve a bombing now. Oh, you and me are basically twins on here...shush!

QUOTE(shagar69 @ Feb 12, 2005 -> 03:12 AM) what mall, and what bus would take me there, lol, sorry, i dont know s*** Um, I don't go to UI...I go to Michigan State, so I don't know the area well. Try any mall, they all have a hat store. My favroite is the 1983 ones, I wear the one with red and just the word Sox everywhere. If you can get to a mall, your set. I'd PM AsshatSoxFan, WhiteSoxFan99, IshMookie, and Orange Krush if you need to find out where a mall is by UI. They can help ya as they seem to be firmilar.

QUOTE(GASHWOUND @ Feb 12, 2005 -> 03:10 AM) Well, some people actually have lives... But when i think of soxtalk there are certain posters that come to mind automatically and Heather is one of them...it feels normal when she's around Ouch. But, I do agree...she, Jas, cw, and a few others were this site when I joined.

I have a puppy + I am drunk = that pisses me off!!!

Ya are never round no more Heather. I am not around as much, but ya guys have just disappeared.

Wouldn't surprise me personally.

I got mine at Hat World in malls. I have four of them...I love them...try the mall.

QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 03:39 PM) I agree. I think both Mark and Freddy are number 2s, but Freddy has #1 ability. What? Yeah, its confusing to me too. An ace is someone like Schilling or Randy Johnson, something we do not have. I agree 100%...they're better number ones than most teams number ones. An ace would be Santana, Halladay, Schilling etc. Loaiza two years ago was an ace to me...just shut people down.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 02:46 PM) No one really knows who is the better hitter since gload has been blocked from coming up nearly his entire minor league career. Last year was a kinda small sample size but i know i wouldn't be suprised to see him hit in the .280-.300 range over an entire hitter. He has proven he can hit every where he has been in the minors unlike our lead-off hitter. I'm not sold yet, but we may need a new 1B next year, so he can prove it again this year. I think he may not be best suited to play everyday.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 02:38 PM) I would rather have a guy give up more walks than hits any time. A .55 point batting average differential is huge. Santana gives up more home runs but slightly. Not signifigant enough to matter. Santana was one of only two starts this year i believe to have a whip under one ( 0.92). Hallday's was 1.00 exactly. Santana in 2004 held batters to .191 average, .249 obp, .315 slg, and 564 ops. Halladay in 2003 held batters to .247 average, .275 obp, .389 slg, and 664 ops. You look at the career numbers only thing halladay really has an edge on is complete games. Another thing santana has going for him is being left handed. Sanatan's cy young season was much better than hallday's. Not takking anything away from halladay but last year from sanatana was unreal. Oh, I was just saying you could compare them somewhat. If I was starting a team today, I would take Santana over Halladay (from their Cy Young seasons). I just feel Halladay would go out there and be more dominate, even while Santana may have been more impressive.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Feb 10, 2005 -> 02:36 PM) Skew numbers? I presented the facts as they are. Gload in 1 season, pretty much did better than almost every season of Everett's career. You can skew it however you want to, but the fact is, if you do not give Gload a chance, its purely $$, not performance. Because Gload considerably outperformed Everett last season. SB 4000 AB to 300 AB...Everett's best season: 464 AB, .325 avg, 25 HR, 108 RBI, .398 OBP, .571 SLG, 86 R, 50 BB, 27/34 SB...so you're saying that will never touch Gload. Do you need more numbers? Or are you done?
