I didn't see anyone telling you the answer if it was indeed a serious question. DePloderer is from Great Britain so I assume he meant the Sunday LONDON Times. I see no reason for an admin to call you out about your posts. That is just wrong. Sometimes I'm amazed that people think the ignorant are stupid. Ignorance is lack of knowledge not stupidity. If you were trying to be funny, try using green font and nevermind my rant.

You are a blasphemer !! Listen to the original by Steam or don't listen at all.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Oct 9, 2005 -> 08:43 PM) Exactly Dikta wasnt even a good coach.... but yet gets treated like he is a saint around here.... If we are going to parade around celebrating guys it should be Payton and Halas. Parade around dead guys ?? Ewwww !!!

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 9, 2005 -> 03:14 PM) He is making fun of Felix for saying that he would give PK 18 million a while back. Might not get to $18 mill but I wouldn't bet against 4-5 yrs at $15 mill. annually. If we could offer Mags that kinda contract we can offer it to Paulie.

I liked it. Given your excited state I'll forgive the over extended tangents. I was stuck listening to the game on ESPN radio in Cali. You think ESPN TV sucks . Try this out. Around the 7th inning they cut away from the Sox game to go to the Angels PRE game show . NOt the game the PRE game. The actual game was still like 45-60 minutes from starting ! Talk about pissed off.

QUOTE(BuehrleBabe @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 09:44 PM) LOL I like that one, but my dad would possibly have a heart attack seeing his two daughters wearing a shirt with that on it Meaning no disrespect to your dad but when this happens once every 88 years you should throw caution to the wind. If the search engines were back on , I posted something in April or May asking the exact same thing you did. At that time I really felt this was going to be our year. In the midst of our celebratory mood let me apologize that you wer not greeted properly. Welcome to Soxtalk

Did Reynolds actually play at the Cell ? When did he retire ?

Was That the Bears out there ?? 2 touchdowns 2 extra pts against a safety. What a pummeling . Just remember in 59' the Sox won 11-0 in the 1st game against the Dodgers. The Yankees won game 3 last yr 19-8 led the series 3-0 at that point and Boston still came back. That being said Boston's pitching isn't as good as last year so let's keep the mo'.

Yea Pat Kelly. He played with Melton and Carlos May and Dick Allen and Jim Kaat probably Bucky Dent ,Terry Forster and Goose Goosage . Had some real talented players on that 73" team. Don't know if my memory is right of who was on the that team . I liked those red pinstriped uni's . RIP Pat and God bless your family.

I'd like to make it to Tin Horn Flats for some of the games against Boston. Unfortunately I work Tuesday and I can only make night games if there are any. Feel free to use my list at the bottom of my message to contact any other So Cal Sox fans. If you make anything definite for Tin Horn Flats that I can make I will be there. Also pin the message.

I never considered myself superstitious but my true colors showed as we lost game after game and the lead shrunk so fast. Thoroughly disappointed by the "choke" avatars, I joined the Rally Crede group to show my support. But even then I didn't think I was being superstitious . I was just supporting the group of fans here who wanted a more positive approach. In the key game of the season where the "Rally Crede" kicked in the Sox were behind 2-0. I had recently picked up one of those mini-bats that are given away on Bat day. It said Cleveland Indian's on it. After Joe hit his 1st homerun to tie the game I jumped up grabbed the mini bat and burned off the words Cleveland Indians hoping to silence their bats. Needless to say, as we all know, Crede's 2nd homer gave the Sox the much needed win. Although the Sox lost the next game against the Indians and the 1st 2 games with Detroit ,the Indian's bat's did indeed fall silent against Tampa Bay. We won the next 2 games and the division was ours !

QUOTE(YASNY @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 11:36 PM) Fearing a choke is one thing. Believing it is going to happen is another. That's saying nothing about "bragging" that it will happen by putting up that avatar. Piss poor excuse for a fan, if you ask me. And if you don't ask me, consider it said anyway. I'm sure we all had that fear. Let's face it , we owe Tampa Bay a share of the playoff money. As far as the choke avatar goes, I'm in agreement with you Yas. You and I both have been around to see more disappointing seasons then most of the guys here but would never consider "expecting" a choke. Diff'rent strokes I guess.

MMMM Prune juice.

Hey JC , JC you're alright by me hanna ho hanna hey Superstar. From the rock opera Jesus Christ Superstar if anyone cares.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Sep 24, 2005 -> 10:37 AM) Fathom, I started a WC Help thread for scores of Boston and NYY if you wanna join me and post there Where is that thread?? Toronto up on Yankees 7-3 in the 3rd.

QUOTE(Whitesoxfan56 @ Sep 24, 2005 -> 10:22 AM) I am a big aaron supporter, but the way he has been hitting and the jumps he has gotten on ball in the past few games, tells me that he isnt all there. maybe a break would help him out. I was thinking about having anderson or borch playing CF, but the reason that I put willie is because of his speed. we won games at the beginning of the year with speed and small ball, and with willie in the lineup that gives us another speedster in the lineup Since I 2nd guessed you I'll give you a chance to 2nd guess me. Here is my lineup. LF Pods.. He's still hitting good even if he's not stealing bases. 2B Iguchi.. can't argue with what he's done all yr. in this spot. RF Dye.. Closest thing we've got to a true #3 hitter. Power, speed, B.A. 1B Konerko.. best power source. CF Rowand.. best on team with 2 outs and RISP. DH Everett.. has killed Mays in limited AB's 3B Crede .. moved up 1 spot because of his hot streak. C AJ SS Uribe

Sox management's new philosphy is to dump big salaries such as Maggs and CLee in order to free up more money for good but less pricey players. However that philosophy is only good if you have sumone like Pk to fall back on. We need at least one guy capable of hitting 40 Hr's and that guy is PK. Sign him before the season ends. Resigning him now will be a positive in the midst of the whirlwind we are in now.

Willie hasnt played CF all yr. Why would u want him in the lineup over Aaron anyway ? Good effort . At least you had the guts to be the 1st one to actually post a lineup.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Sep 24, 2005 -> 09:42 AM) There is a group of people hear who everytime someone complains, from Ozzie to Marriotti, it's always STFU. Kong and his kontract? STFU. Ozzie and fans booing? STFU. Gooch batting 2 instead of 3? STFU. I LMAO that people somehow think players 1. Are not human, with human emotions. 2. Can be so easily distracted. 3. Should only talk to the person directly. Of course the posters don't follow that in their own lives. Anything but going to the press , that just makes a bad situation worse. Wouldn't you agree?

Willie Mays is a pitcher now ?? Damn he's as old as El Duque . We should kick some ass no matter what the lineup is today.

Thanks for that. Always nice to know the man behind the player especially when he succeeds while overcoming obstacles. He is a credit to Cuba and to the will and perserverance of the human spirit.

Hell I wish OG would move Dye to the 3 spot. He's the closest thing we have to what you want in that position , speed, power, average. Since Aaron is the best on the team at hitting with RISP with 2 outs move him to 5th, that way in the first inning he could be up there with 2 men on and 2 outs. We were playing our best ball jumping out to early leads.
