Sad his body couldn't handle it. Right now though, the Center position IS Dwight, followed by Horford, who would be joined by Bynum/Bogut/Noah if that trio could stay healty. Meanwhile, Rome Wasn't Built in One Day was genius by Steve Porter.

Gray, Marquez, Harrell. Gray would be nice, Harrell was awesome at the OAK game I went to last year, and Marquez? Nah, don't need him.

QUOTE (FlySox87 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 11:51 PM) Translate it any way you like. I'm not here to judge, but it is my belief that we will all stand before God one day. If you want to go before Him having never believed in Him, then I sincerely wish you the best of luck. I'm not big into the whole "force the infidels to convert" idea; it's kind of stupid, violent and intolerant if you ask me. So, you're free to believe whatever you want to believe. Doesn't change my personal belief that we will all be judged eventually. Good enough for me, it was that "that's pleasant" that sounded as if it dripped with sarcasm to me. Now that there is a lengthy, thought out descriptor, then I'll retract that statement.

QUOTE (FlySox87 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 11:37 PM) And you're an atheist. That's pleasant. You're free to face God with any reputation you like; it's not my place to change you or convert you or anything like that. So good luck. Wow. That was thinly veiled spite.

Damn.

QUOTE (soxfan72 @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 11:01 PM) The FAIL is strong with this post. Been a Sox fan for 38 years pal. As far as the Tea Party is concerned, not interested in your libtard comments either. Have a nice day.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 10:51 PM) You fail to see any sadness in the fact that the US has an agreement with Mexico and the US failed to honor that agreement? At the end of the day, I take my word seriously. If I tell you that we have an agreement, that means something. As an United States citizen I am ashamed that we told 170 countries that we would abide by a treaty and we failed to do it. Not only that, but after we were told we were in the wrong, we didnt even change our actions, we just went on our way acting like it doesnt matter, that somehow vengeance is more important then our word. That makes me sad, it makes me sad because we are supposed to be a country where there is liberty and justice for all. And that means we treat the worst of society with the same respect and decency we treat the best of society. I wonder what the people of the great state of Texas would say if an American civilian was denied rights in Mexico and executed. Would we merely say "Well Mexico has that right" or would we expect more? Would we expect that our citizen be given the rights and treatment that Mexico agreed to give them when they signed the treaty? So today I am sad, not because of the death, but because we were so hellbent on killing this man that we had to break our word to do it. And unlike you, I dont believe Mr. Leal will be going to hell, I dont believe hes going anywhere. Dead is dead. This post is masterful.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 07:45 PM) I can't believe people took him seriously. Seriously. I just want the Federal Government to be like "Well, fine. Go for it."

Anyone got a link to the "Who in the f*** is Hector Santiago" pic?

Wow bad call by the ump.

Sweet Jesus Lexi.

I feel like Dunn needs a bigger bat.

Viciedo has no spot.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 07:05 PM) My god this organization is brain dead. Our attendance is way down and our offense sucks so lets keep a hitting phenom down in AAA for no good reason. SMH Makes sense.

I want the Braves scouts.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 04:37 PM) Jenks, Texas didnt violate any US law, the US will be in violation of the treaty. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/lookout/perry-...-165615922.html I just think its interesting that you have Obama, George Bush, etc saying that the states should agree to follow the treaty. You have 1 state, Texas, who is basically saying they arent going to do it, unless Congress makes them. The question is, will Perry back down. Its not just liberal v conservative, this is basically Texas v the US. I really want someone to call Rick Perry's secession bluff.

Humber will make the Twins fools.

Sergio is awesome. I still need to get my Santos shirt.

I could see this causing a massive sequence of events. Quentin gets traded for Beachy. Spot needs to be cleared for Dayan, so E-Jax gets traded. Beachy plugged into rotation. In the offseason, Danks and Floyd get traded to shore up on prospects. Buehrle resigned (I just can't see any way this doesn't happen, just like Paulie). 2011 Rotation of: Humber-Buehrle-Peavy-Sale-Beachy.

QUOTE (knightni @ Jul 7, 2011 -> 05:36 PM) In the defense of most of that, the Soxtalk voting contingent didn't kick in until after '04 and Dye was up against Derek Jeter in '09. Longoria?
