The Grinder

Thank you sir, much appreciated!

So I'm going to game Sunday, been 10 yrs I know a lot has changed, but a few questions if someone would please answer Can I use my Discover card for parking? Really is there a need to carry cash at all? I would assume all the vendors take credit cards correct? Thanks!

Both of them???

Officer Karkovice.....not just another pretty face?

Agreed, I'm in too. How many shares will my $100 get??

Really as much as its sad to say but probably the only way to eliminate JR is when he passes away....

I'll keep out of the political thing but WSI had more leftys than a southpaw convention ?

Bingo I got same impression that it was all an ego trip

Wasnt that hot outside, not that you cant get dehydrated on a cooler day. Took us what 5 pitchers for a one hitter? And the cubs lost to boot! hate to see what the attendance totals were though when compared to GRF to Wrigley

Me and a friend were at Hawks game in the 80's, we come out and someone had busted my side window out and stole a radar detector. We live 100 miles away and this had to be the coldest night of the year. So we wrapped our heads with some blankets and whatever we could find in my car and drove to the nearest PD. So we were stopped at a traffic light and right next to us was a squad car, we looked over at the cop looked at us all wrapped up and the window out. He just shook his head and drove off ?

Yea going w your gut has to net results. I know Lord knows my "gut" has been wrong at times. IIRC in 2005 Ozzie went against stats and went w his instinicts

Hoping next yr RR not managing here, be nice to get a top notch manager in there and let him begin to mold a contender.

I agree and disagree w RR, yes theres plenty of validity in stats but what wrong w going with yr gut? Makes me wonder how the managers from many yrs ago ever won the WS And I'm not defending Ricky, yes he not our guy moving forward

I can imagine how the local media spins the headline: The criminal White Sox pitchers in jail again

You know I can understand the logic of having a moderated site. Look at the comments you see on You Tube as example which is why I dont bother posting on there. But WSI took it too far, I like playing here much better

Thanks for the verification, I believe u are correct Sir. I remember you from WSI, Farwest and Michelle were living in Ontario correct?

I guess free speech doesn't fly on WSI....

I thought George from Elmhurst orginally owned it but as the years went by it appeared Jim who lived in San Jose had taken it over but I had no proof of that. It did have some neat stuff on it regardless of the upper crust. There was a mod name Brian IIRC that I had some words with, maybe he was alright but seemed to be on an ego trip once he got appointed moderator. Always loved Lips contributions. Either here or there

I was there from 2001 till 2016, approx 3K posts and then was banned for life for a controversial remark I made on a PM, I admit I had some culpability in the remark but didnt deserve a lifetime ban. After that I just said the hell with them, I think the real reason was I had a different viewpoint on a sensitive topic. I would still go there from time to time to see the posts from what ever few members were left. Proof once again if you have enough rope you can hang yourself.......

As close as I am to Dubuque (or Dyersville) never made the journey over there as of yet. And Ive had 30 years to do so ? But I did like the movie as cheesy as it got at times.....

Of course a condenscending cub fan had to say it: Think the Sox can sell out for this? Jackass

Aggressive as in what? Pursuing 37 yr old has beens?

Covey kind of reminds me of Danny Wright from what 2002? God help us.....

5 yrs to build? Really? I'm getting a little sick & tired of looking at the foundation Stone Pony. When are the 1st floor joists gonna get laid??

Let the Ryan Goins era begin!! Who??? Great another marginal player called up......like we need another AAAA player on this team
