November 30, 200520 yr that's why i said one of the best weeks, not the best, because obviously that would be when they won the World Series. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Point taken.. sorry with this news and the fact that after being laid off a month a ago I start work tommorow.. one of the best days in my short life.

November 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Nov 30, 2005 -> 01:36 PM) Do you think last season's trouble trying to find someone to pull the trigger on a deal may change his philosophy a little? Obviously he wanted something more significant and was unable to do so, on the other hand he did win a World's championship. It would be interesting to see if it does have an effect on how he operates this season. I don't think it will. I mean he's still going to go after deals before everyone else usually does because that's always been his philosophy. I'm pretty sure this is our team though on Opening Day.

November 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Nov 30, 2005 -> 12:30 PM) People just think of the 3-4-5.. DYE Paulie Thome.. Can anyother team be able to match that? hmm i love the lineup and all but arod/sheff/matsui is still better...we are still a defensive/pitching team thome certainly should help tho but its not like we will have #1 offense
November 30, 200520 yr Definitely $12 Million per year: Under teams of the contract, Konerko will earn $12 million each season. http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/local/c...ll=chi-news-hed

Does anyone think Paulie could hit 50 with Thome back there?

November 30, 200520 yr I couldn't be happier! This news made my day. .. Wow, it's the top story on msnbc.com (under In the News) and also on yahoo.com. Huge News!!
November 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Nov 30, 2005 -> 07:08 PM) 65/5? We overpaid. No way is Konerko worth $13 million a year, objectively. But with the money bins that medicore relief pitchers arae building today, in the context of the inflated FA market this year we may have actually underpaid. My god. What an assbag.
November 30, 200520 yr THANK YOU KW! I must go to a talk, but I'll be back later to purchase my new #14 Jersey.

November 30, 200520 yr Wooooohooo!! i haven't been this happy since October 26th, 2005. And we all know what happend that day
November 30, 200520 yr Great move...now if they want to find a CF go for it. Otherwise I'm quite happy with this team. The only thing I could see is moving El Duque and picking up a different reliever (just due to the salary of Duque). This way the Sox could have some flexibility around the trade deadline. I knew Paulie would come back and 5/60 is more than fair for both sides.
November 30, 200520 yr i was on a message board and all i saw was Konerko off of Free agent market i got really nervous, went into the forum, and saw the complete title "Back with the Sox" i just lifted up both my arms and said YEAAAAHHHH i didn't realize how much i wanted paulie back until that moment probably

November 30, 200520 yr The only thing we have to worry about now is the fact that it's been a while since a team's repeated championships....
