The Bones

If it ain't broken, don't fix it.

I agree with you I miss the classic matchups, but it is also fun not knowing what to expect each week. It seems that each week something happens that you've never seen before.

I don't know if anyone on here follows boxing. But, now that I'm at school I get Showtime and the Holyfield-Toney fight was on so I thought I'd give it a try. I'd never really watched a boxing match before, but it was pretty interesting. Toney ended up winning in the 9th round when he knocked down Holyfield and Holyfield's corner threw in the towel. Could possible be it for Evander, he's 41 yrs. old now. Cool thing was that Toney showed respect for Evander after the fight. I didn't know boxers could be gracious winners. I just knew what I'd heard about boxers like Tyson. Overall, I enjoyed a change of pace tonight after a tough day of sports for me. Best thing is I wasn't really cheering for anyone, so I couldn't be let down. I just enjoyed watching the fight for entertainment.

just got upset by Wisconsin, if you wanna call it an upset. The streak is over.

How about the Old Navy commercial with the damn annoying song and the annoying girl who has the most annoying look on her face and then the guys in that commercial are douchebags. Worst thing is, it's on almost every commercial break. You know what I'm talking about?

We should just keep having polls because you know someone isn't gonna be happy when it gets renamed.

Glad to help out. I'm looking forward to it. I've been in a few baseball and football fantasy leagues before but never basketball.

I like them a lot better than the old ones. Ugh!

It's me. Manute Bol's Ballers are gonna dominate baby!

I joined and my team name is Manute Bol's Ballers. a couple of questions Who is everyone else that's in the league and what's their team names? How long does the draft take?

Everyone says the UD is too steep, but it's really not that bad. I've sat up there a few times, 3 to be exact, and it gives you a different perspective. I think it's better to be right on top of things than have it not as steep and be further away horizontally from the field. U.S. Cellular is a great place to watch BASEBALL. Too bad more people are more interested is watching plants grow on a wall.

Yes, I believe you mean "Feliz Cumpleanos!" I didn't even catch that the first time I read it.

Here it is... Desperate man just wants escape from Cub Nation October 10, 2003 Kids: Is Dad psycho or something? Wife: Your father is not psycho. He just wants to watch the Red Sox and Yankees, and he can't get the game on Comcast cable. Psycho, with cell phone on ear: Well, the Cubs are winning 57,000 to 0, and for some strange reason I can't get the Boston-Yankees game on the cable! Wife: I just told them. Kids: But we want to watch the Red Sox! The Red Sox aren't on? No Nomar? Wife: Only the Cubs game. The other game isn't on. Psycho: Wait! Wait! Kids: No Red Sox? Psycho, dialing Comcast cable: I SAID DON'T WORRY!!! This is America. And in America, American League fans can watch the American League Championship Series. Even in Illinois. DON'T WORRY, KIDS! Comcast cable phone message: Press 1 if you wish to add to your service. Press 2 if you wish to order new service, and press 3 if you wish to report . . . Kids: We want the Red Sox! Red Sox! Psycho: I'm trying! I'm trying! Wait! Please be quiet or I'll lose my temper! Kids: He's psycho. After two hours of excruciating elevator music Wednesday night, followed by, "Due to the heavy volume of calls, your call will be answered in the order it is received," my wife told me my brother was on the other phone. Cubs fan brother No. 1: You see that? You see how hard Sammy hit that? Wasn't he a White Sox once? Psycho, now with cell phones clamped to either side of his head: I saw it. Don't burn me. Wait! I'm trying to get Comcast. I can't get the Boston-Yankees game. Cubs fan brother No. 2: Hey, you can't get the Boston game? And you're a Sox fan? Are you upset? You should get a satellite dish. Go Cubs. Na-na-na-na, hey-hey, goodbye. Psycho: Stop it! My ears are getting hot from these phones. My ears are hot! Comcast cable: Hello, sir? Me, like a weakling, in a small voice: Please help me. I'd like to watch the American League Championship Series game between the Boston Red Sox and the New York Yankees. And I've got the flu. Please help. Comcast: Well, it's on FX. Do you see it? Is it there? Me: No, but there are three Bravo channels. I guess we could watch "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" three times--not that anything's wrong that. But can I tell you something? Comcast: What is it, sir? Me: I'd rather watch Boston and the Yankees? You know? Baseball? Comcast: Do you live in the western suburbs? Me: Yes. The western suburbs of Cook County. Many White Sox fans--American League fans--live here. Comcast: Well, I've just checked, and FX is not available in your area. Kids: He just kicked the couch! Mom? Did you see? He just kicked it. Wife: Stay away from him! Psycho: Let me talk to your supervisor! Comcast: Someone will call you back. Psycho, sounding exactly like Ben Kingsley's psychotically evil character in "Sexy Beast": No! No! No, no, no, no, no, no, no! Cubs fan brother No. 1 back on cell: Hey, did you get the Boston game yet? The Cubs are killing them! Na-na-na-na, hey-hey, goodbye. Psycho with two phones again: Don't burn me, you $%@&*! Not now! Comcast: Pardon me, sir?! Me: No, not you. Please. Not you. My brother. Not you. Please let me talk to a supervisor. Please? Comcast supervisor: Sir, I'm sorry, but you won't be able to watch the Yankees-Red Sox game. The channel, FX, isn't carried in your area. We're upgrading service in your area, and soon you'll have more channels, and . . . Psycho: When? Comcast: In 2004. Psycho: So I can watch "Queer Eye" but not the Red Sox and the Yankees? There are thousands of people who can't watch the ballgame!!! Comcast supervisor: Sir, there's nothing we can do. The upgrade will be complete in 2004. Psycho: I'm going to write about this outrage! And I'm going to get a dish! You hear me?! Comcast supervisor: Sorry. Psycho: I HATE LIFE! Wife: Go upstairs, children, quietly. Quickly now . . . Psycho, hanging up the phone, speaking dramatically, to no one: I'm not a psycho. I'm an innocent American League fan, trapped in cable hell. Disembodied voice: You're not a psycho? Just listen to yourself. Psycho: I'm not psycho. I'll feel better, with a dish. Disembodied voice: Do you promise? Psycho: Yes. I'm a White Sox fan trapped in Cub Nation, and a dish will set me free. Disembodied voice: Are you sure about that? ---------- [email protected] Email: [email protected] Copyright © 2003, The Chicago Tribune

Haven't heard that one before.

C'mon I know there's more college football fans out there. You still have time to post your picks. I'm gonna need more competition or I'll dominate every week. Not that I won't anyways.

I played drums in high school, but I'm not a musician.

I forgot to post my picks last week. Gonna have to make up for it this week. Browns Patriots Dolphins Colts Buccaneers Titans Chiefs Eagles Bears Ravens Broncos Bills Seahawks Rams

I still can't see the ones you posted yesterday.

I've been cheering for the Marlins since July or August when I saw them on ESPN and realized they were a fun team to watch. I'm not stopping now. And I do think they have what it takes to beat the Cubs...heart.

Looks like wsfan99 took the night off, so I'll cover for him. Shakira

I think you might want to have less stuff on the shirt. With all that on it the shirt looks kind of cluttered IMO. Either get rid of the baseball or the Sox logo. Then, just have Soxtalk.com on the front with Go Pale Hose and either of the two pictures on the back. Also, I like the jerseys. Maybe we could work something out with those. I really like the all black one and the gray one with black sleeves.
