He could have injured his arm, ruined his career, and jeopardized the well-being of all African Elephants. African Elephants are in fine shape. The number of African Elephants tripled in the 6 months from Jan to June 2006. Edited June 27, 2007 by Balta1701 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chiguy79 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Breaking News... Â Mark Buerhle reportedly has signed a 7-year / $140mm extension with the White Sox. Buerhle immediately stated that he would have accepted the original 4yr/$50mm extension originally discussed but he made the White Sox up their offer so he could donate the additional $90mm to the Save the Prairie Dog organization. "I just think they are so cute" said Buerhle. Buerhle also required that a Prairie Dog habitat be maintained in the Sox Bullpen and that 25% of the "SoxSplit" raffle go towards the organization.

They have to be protected by armed guards, many of whom have died trying to protect them. Â Mark Buehrle pays the salaries of those armed guards.

dagotony06 Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 On sportscenter, Tim Kurkjian was on and just said, Buehrle is off the trading block, because KW wasn't getting anywhere near the talent that he was looking for in trades. Says that they are gonna try to work out an extension, but it may take awhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Remember when Clemens was going to go down for Steroids reportedly and the rumor caught like wild fire...basically came from Forums such as this one and media outlets everywhere ran with it. Â The main question I have is whether anyone else reporting things has new sources or whether they are essentially basing things off the SunTimes and Score.

Both FoxSports and SI claim they have their own sources. If it were coming from Cowley, they would just say, "The Chi ST reports..." or something like that. Â So now it's Cowley, 670, Rosenthal, and SI vs the Trib and AM 1000. And even the Trib is reporting about Hahn making a trip to Tampa. Â Whatever's going on, I can't believe it's as simple as the quotes from Buehrle's agent made it sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greg The Bull Luzinski Posted June 27, 2007 Share Posted June 27, 2007 Slightly off topic, but since the pregame will coming on the Score soon, I wonder if they will mention it in the pregame. Maybe even Farmio and the mute will say something about it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
