QUOTE(ChiSoxFan @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 06:00 PM) I think too many publications have fallen in love with stats too much. I mentioned this in another thread about a week ago, but ESPN has embraced that "biggest name available" philosophy, meaning if you don't get that huge "name", your offseason wasn't worth a damn. Nevermind that the Angels & Marlins blew that theory to hell, it's all about the name. The Sox lost 2 "names", thus they've regressed. I'd say you hit the nail on the head with that post. "Experts" do tend to go with the "named" players....but they're as much experts as you and me.

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 05:42 PM) chill! i made a mistake. im not that dumb, i know harolds a bench coach, my bad ....that's a big mistake, especially if you knew he was the bench coach...LOL

Must have cookie

QUOTE(Man Of Steel @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 05:21 PM) My friend emailed it to me excellent...just excellent

QUOTE(Melissa1334 @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 05:16 PM) jeez, sorry. next time i will be more careful with my jokes that's what green is for mainly next time use green font.

QUOTE(Wanne @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 04:49 PM) Maybe now Jim...but I know he started out as a Midwestern boy and went to Notre Dame under Pat Murphy (ASU current HC). Didn't he start out in the Milwaukee system before he went for his first stint with the DBacks. I just like the guy...woulda loved to have had him on the Sox. that dude has the ugliest batting stance the the MLB.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 04:51 PM) Here...have this. Can we stop now? I'm just SO burnt on Maggs/Money talk. Its SO beyond the realm of funny; its downright annoying. Ugh.

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 04:50 PM) Perhaps he just read the first post and commented. Sometimes I don't read the entire thread before replying. i'm the same way...but i don't read the big posts that are like 4 paragraphs if the thread is too long. If it's just a small post i'll glimpse at it

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 04:42 PM) Yes, that's exactly what I meant. EDIT: It's important to note the conotation Melissa was giving it, comparing Wills to Maggs. she did say it was a joke though.... you replied long after that was clear.

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 04:35 PM) Of course it did. Money has something to do with everything. In this case.. the job and the move up was more important though which is what I think Addison meant. That's what i thought he meant....but i thought i would say that the money at least means something...after he said it meant nothing. LOL....money has everything to do with everything....or at least it does to me.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Feb 3, 2005 -> 04:25 PM) Meh. His die-hard act got real old after a couple seasons. Good luck in TB. ...and c'mon Melissa. This has NOTHING to do with $$. Its a stepping-stone, its a career move. Money? Please. How does it not??? He will be making more money with that job...sure it's a good career move and a stepping-stone...but the money has atleast SOMETHING to do with this.

wasn't there already a poll with this exact topic??

i'm getting there

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Feb 2, 2005 -> 06:38 PM) No. Absolutely not. I don't want anyone to help this guy. i wonder why, his current sig sucks ass....

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Feb 2, 2005 -> 04:01 PM) Ha, poor Indiana. This will help the Illini now that one of the top scorers in the Big Ten is gone for the year. Plus Illinois still has a game at Iowa which was going to be tough just got a whole lot easier. i don't think he'll be gone for just a year..

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Feb 2, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) Awesome sig, and I actually got it to work! Thanks a lot! no problem..at all.

GMAFB....oh my god... Everytime there is a new reality show coming out....someone has to make something similar to it. those stupid love island shows....the trump/benefactor shows..the makeover shows...the house shows....etc.. last reality show i watched was like 2 years ago...can't stand them..

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Feb 2, 2005 -> 02:30 PM) If you don't like what I post.. don't read it..People hate reading the truth.. as you do. It's not the truth....it's your "opinion" I like to read people's opinions.....some I like and some I dont. You seem to keep posting opinions I don't like...though some of your threads/posts make sense. I don't like reading the same thing about KW from you all the time. It's repetitive, and gets boring.

here it is...a day later

and he's only twelve........It's almost impossible for him not to do something like this again......God...he's only TWELVE. I have a feeling I'll be seeing him in the news again 5+ years from now.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Feb 2, 2005 -> 02:06 PM) Aaron Boone comeback player of the year? Don't you have to be good before the injury to be eligable? Now Magglio Ordonez and Frank Thomas could be considered...but i'm with you....Aaron Boone??????????????????

You see KW the way you see him......everyone else sees him as they see him. Who cares that they see him differently than you.....move on and quit posting the same s*** every week and in every topic....we get the point that you don't like KW. Exactly how many minds have you changed on KW in your 3 months on this board....i bet it's less than 1%. It's getting boring and old.....

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 1, 2005 -> 10:10 PM) Alba is in the avatar and my guess is he wishes alba won the hot chick contest. correct......and to answer whitesox91403's question completely...It's alba in her upcoming role in the movie Sin City. I downloaded the trailer and took this little bit and made it my avatar...

I assume that's Iguchi on the left....it looks like his face is made of clay in that pic
