QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 06:48 PM) Over at WSI, a guy posted one of his articles from 2001, and, in describing the Mariners -- he called Ichiro a "glorified Triple-A hitter"... I found that a little funny. Yep, and that Mariners team won 116 games. They picked them to finish in 3rd place.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 04:18 PM) I still don't think Willie will be traded. Nor do I. I don't see us getting anything of value for the team for WH. Also, I still see Willie being an asset to have on the bench.

Awesome stuff Mike! Hope everything goes well for you and your wife.

Wow...Only one word can describe that: traveshamockery.

If Borchard turns it around, we're going to have a nice stock of OFers to work with here.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 11:39 AM) One other writer picked us to win as well, but I can't remember who. Was it the NBC people that gave us the good write up?

Have a good one Cotts! Good luck in the '05 season!

QUOTE(CrimsonWeltall @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 01:56 AM) The Zona and OSU fans didn't seem to root for UWM over the Illini. During the second game, it seemed like Illini fans favored OSU over Zona, but not by a great deal. You guys wanted the whole place to be orange Saturday.

Awesome article, gotta love the Buerhle mon.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Mar 25, 2005 -> 12:47 AM) LOL! What the fans dont want is a lying, cheating, roid pumping whiny b**** like him holding the most prestigious of baseballs records. Exactly. Bonds brought this all on himself. I guarantee if a player like Griffey never got injured, and continued to hit HRs at that pace, everyone would be behind it. Bonds' persona and the roids, etc. make it very hard to root for him.

Because the media and fans don't want a black man with the HR record....

Zona wins a solid game 79-78.

The latter 3 choices are each pulling 30% of the vote on ESPN's poll. I thought it was an interesting question.

I enjoyed the show. As a Sox fan, when you hear of a show or somebody planning on talking about Chicago baseball, you expect the majority of the show to about the team on the Northside. It's usually "Cubs this, Cubs that, and oh yeah the Sox did this." You guys did a good job keeping it balanced on the show, and it seemed you guys gave the Sox their fair share of love. It was also cool hearing all of our questions getting answered.

We gotta hear that Aussie accent!

My question!

SoxTalk plug!

I guess this is as good of a place as any. Kind of cool...Dane Fife is going to coach my hometown IPFW Mastadons. http://iuhoosiers.com/mensbasketball/news/...bk03-24-05.html

QUOTE(Goldmember @ Mar 24, 2005 -> 06:56 PM) plus read an article about uwm/pearl. he made the very obvious yet good point that most likely uwm will be backed by most zona/okie state fans cause they'd rather play uwm than illini... Also, UWM does travel well, and they are actually closer to Chicago than the Illini are.

Wow RIP Morty!

Have a good one man!

Like they were saying on PTI yesterday, basically all the students and players were between the ages of 2-6 when it happened. So it better not be all about Pearl.

Questions for Merkin: After seeing him in the early games of spring training, what kind of numbers do you see Iguchi producing for the Sox? Also, what do you think of Willie Harris' future with the Sox?

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 23, 2005 -> 09:00 PM) That's what I got out of it, greasy, but with all of the things I've been hearing out of Carlos today, you'd think that he'd killed someone. Geez -- I certainly never any of this when Carlos was here... Yeah....I don't really get it. I think Carlos had the best offensive year for anyone in a White Sox uniform last year, that's including Konerko. The majority liked him before the trade, went psycho the day we traded him, and now he's the worst thing ever. Maybe it's just the uniform, but who knows. I don't have anything against Caballo, and I hope he continues to do well. It must be said that I am happy with the team we got now though. I see that trade as equating to Pods, Viz, and everyone else we acquired after that.
