Thanks guys
I got a real treat last night, I got to feel the baby kick for the first time last night. She is now exactly 6 months in and 3 months to go based on our due date.
Awesome news, and congrats on 5 years!

ESPN Insider's Rumor Central has "White Sox still interested in Griffey". Anyone who has access, can you let us know if it has any new info? Thanks in advance.
I can guarantee that all they did was reference this article from yesterday:

I saw up to the 6th at home until I had to go to work. I went to the front of the pro shop to have them put the game on real fast so I could check the score, and I saw Gooch's oppo-field blast. Awesome.
70 wins? Schweeeeeeeeet.
I hate checks. I'm going to have to start using them when we start paying for certain utilities for our apartment this year though. I usually use my debit if I have to make a big purchase.

Expect the worst, hope for the best. I think that is his philosophy and I am sticking with that too.
The Sox don't do this often; I'm going to choose to enjoy this.

You do know there have been teams that lost a double digit lead in August? Ask the Angels about that when the Mariners came from way behind to beat them in a play-in game.
Do you honestly think this team is not going to make the playoffs? Sure it's possible that we don't. But are you really that cynical?

A healthy Griffey is 1000 times more marketable than Frank. Frank was amazing in his hay-day, but if Griffey gets rolling again (and it looks like he is and gets back in a major market)....he will once again be one of the more marketable players in all of baseball.
Frank was never really that. He was pretty damn amazing in the 90's, but marketablity wise (aside from Big Hurt Baseball the video game) he doesn't even come close to KGJ.
Though I own probably every product ever produced with Frank's mug on it, and there's a fare amount of it, Frank could never compare to Griffey in that department. Griffey would be a huge draw. It'd be awesome to have 2 of the greatest hitters of the '90s on this team.
