Boozer will be booed heavily in Cleveland for the rest of his career, basically he went against his word, said he would resign in Cleveland for the rest of his career. Personally I think he's crazy, missing out on a chance to play with LeBron James for the majority of his playing days.

Federer always had amazing talent, it was always going to be the mental side of his game to determine whether or not he was going to be a GOOD player or a GREAT player.

I had the double header on today, unfortunately we only get Sunday Night and Wednesday Night Baseball down here. :fyou

Become good friends with Billy Koch?

Federer got a cow from the Swiss, 1st time he won Wimbledon, this year he got a large horn. Agassi was a great returner, probably the best, I always like Jonas Bjorkman's returns too when he was in the top 10 in the late 90's, great doubles player now.

Happy Happy Birthday!

Jesus is gettin crucified by the official scorer now.

I wouldn't say Matt Morris has had the best season at all, he's lost 3 to 5 MPH on his fastball and it's been showing on his performances this year. Carl Pavano will get the most money I still feel for any FA pitcher this offseason besides Pedro.

You think Texas will do the same? Imagine Loaiza and Ho Park on their books. :puke

From the Daily Southtown, However, Loaiza thinks the market has been set with Garcia's deal. "Them signing him is a big break for me," Loaiza said. "Every year, when (Garcia's) contract has been up, my contract's up. I'd let him sign first in the winter, then I'd sign, because it's normally the same range of numbers. "Now, with my two years of All-Star (invitations), being a 20-game winner last year and hopefully I get 18 (wins) this year, there will probably be more money for me." Williams didn't seem very eager to get something done with Loaiza.

Ed Wade - Refuses to fire Larry Bowa Arizona GM - Traded 7 players including Lyle Overbay for Richie Sexson Bill Bavasi - Signing Scott Spiezio and Raul Ibanex wasn't the right thing to do. Signed Rich Aurilla for Carlos Guillen.

Let's hope Shoe can pitch well in his retrurn from the DL against his own team. I think our bats will heat up tonight as well, Washburn hasn't been on fire at all lately by any means.

I think it would be cool if we had some different experts answering questions every week, I think it would get a bit boring if the same ppl were answering the questions every week, bring some variety into it. We hav some really great posetrs on here who know their stuff like Rex, Wite, YASNY and Dasox, so finding enough ppl to do it certainly won't be a problem if they're willing to do it. But I'm sure Jason, Dan, Alex and Wite will probably sort of all that out.

Something tells me he'll be traded for Ramon Hernandez and a cap filler, they were pretty hot for him in the Brian Giles deal.

Happy B-Day B-Mac, we all hope you keep pitching well and evenutally make it one day with the White Sox.

Orlando Magic general manager John Weisbrod reportedly received written death threats at his home about trading two-time NBA scoring champion Tracy McGrady. Florida Today reported Wednesday that Weisbrod received two such threats since mid-June, and was forced to check into a hotel under an alias for two nights last week. On June 17, one week before the NBA draft, Weisbrod found a threatening note taped to the front door of his home. He said he called Magic assistant general manager Scott Herring and went ahead with plans to take draft prospect Emeka Okafor to dinner. Nearly two weeks later, on the day the Magic announced McGrady's trade to Houston, a death threat was scribbled on the glass door of the house with a grease marker, Weisbrod said. "I get harassing correspondence all the time, but when it starts happening at your house, that raises the bar to a different level," said Weisbrod, a 35-year-old divorced father of one. Weisbrod said the Magic notified the Orange County Sheriff's Office of the threats last week, but filed no official report because he wanted to keep the incidents "out of the public eye." Sheriff's officials took the June 17 note to analyze for fingerprints and study the handwriting, he said. McGrady, an all-star in each of the four years he played in Orlando, was sent to Houston with three others in exchange for point guard Steve Francis, shooting guard Cuttino Mobley and center/forward Kelvin Cato. The deal was announced June 30. McGrady averaged 28.1 points for the Magic, and quickly became the team's most popular player. But he told team owner Rich DeVos he wanted to be traded, and the Magic didn't want to be left without compensation if McGrady opted out of his seven-year, $93 million contract after next season.

This on Anderson from BA, From one Anderson to another, White Sox first-rounder Brian Anderson has made a seamless transition at Double-A Birmingham. Anderson, who was promoted to the Southern League on July 1, is hitting .350-1-6 in his first five games for the Barons. He hit .319-8-46 in 254 at-bats at high Class A Winston-Salem this season, garnering all-star honors.

I suppose, we'll definitely pin a topic on top for questions every1 here at SoxTalk can ask I guess, and also have links on WhiteSoxCentral and FutureSox.

Excellent idea there by witesoxfan. I'm sure a lot of questions will be asked and it should be a really good segment.

Let's go El Caballo! Clutch Hit needed.
