There's no beer in the bleachers?!?! Dammit, I am driving 6 hours to go to the game on Friday. I bought bleacher tickets online. If I cannot get a beer I will be pissed.

I have been to: Old Comiskey: went several times as a kid, but didn't really look at stadiums the same way I do now New Comiskey: only went once, in 1990, I moved out of Chicago shortly after, but I will be back Friday!(first time at the Cell) Wrigley Field: I lived a lot closer as a kid so I went here more often County Stadium (Milwaukee): was 11, don't remember much, eccept the city smelled like beer Busch Stadium: i now live less than a mile from here, go 6-8 times a year, just to see some baseball; smells like beer here too Turner Field: visited once, don't remember much, I was drunk Bank One Ballpark: seemed very phony like most everything else in Phoenix Fenway Park: froze my ass off on Easter Sunday 2003, actually bought a $60 Red Sox sweatshirt(it was either that, or leave) Nomar hit a walkoff HR Tropicana Field: didn't see a game, it was fan appreciation day, I got to go onto the field and into the dugout & clubhouse which was cool. they have that new fake grass turf, interesting to see that up close Kauffman Stadium: closest place for me to see the Sox, I'll be back in July!

QUOTE(Steff @ May 31, 2005 -> 11:24 AM) Why is the Hermanson decision even an option...? He told Ozzy he couldn't go in.. :headshake Well there is another thread discussing whether this was the case or if Ozzie was misunderstood and was referring to Herm Schneider saying Frank couldn't go. Have you talked to Dustin?

QUOTE(soxman35 @ May 30, 2005 -> 08:14 PM) i made a bet saying he will win over 20 games this season what u think Just curious, when did you make that bet? I'm guessing not before the season started. I'm thinking probably closer to 7-0 or 8-0.

I thought having Crede bunt with Ozuna on the bench in the 9th was pretty dumb, though all ended well. I voted for Everett/Iguchi.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ May 30, 2005 -> 11:57 PM) If they hadn't lost to Ohio State they would have won the Championship. Or UNC.

QUOTE(Frankensteiner @ May 30, 2005 -> 08:14 PM) Dude, two of those aren't even real choices. Marte did his job, the defense failed.

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 30, 2005 -> 02:04 PM) They just went back on the record books and found out two of shingo's saves were indeed not saves... therefore he only has 228 to sasaki's 229. That's the plot of the great Japanese movie, "Mr. 230".

Doesn't Shingo have a no-trade clause in his contract? I think I read that on here somewhere.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 30, 2005 -> 01:19 AM) MLB Minnesota Twins Team Stats: .267 team AVG (ranked 25th in MLB) .335 team OBP (ranked 23rd in MLB) .402 team SLG (ranked 24th in MLB) Big difference. Check those rankings.

Anybody know when Duque is supposed to pitch?

When Frank is back, does anybody see him batting behind PK protecting him? I think Frank will hit 3rd.

It's Shingo time!

Wilco-Via Chicago

4?

Anybody know if the Bears are wearing those orange uniforms this season?

QUOTE(tonyho7476 @ May 25, 2005 -> 12:06 PM) I think its dumb...and why did he end up on the 'L'? Maybe cause "el" sounds like hell?

QUOTE(Steff @ May 25, 2005 -> 11:20 AM) It died. Let's eat!

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ May 24, 2005 -> 05:27 PM) Interesting. Thats a bit longer than one would expect. I'm guessing they will wait for the road NL games to be over with before activating him. I don't really have a problem with this because I think more AAA at bats will make it that much easier for him to come up and have success right off the bat. Still maybe my numbers are off, but June 13th seems like it would be over the 20 day maximum rehab stint. What do you mean maximum? Is this a league rule?

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 24, 2005 -> 02:57 PM) :puke Why is Lew Ford punching himself in the face?

Has Ozuna done anything besides pinch run since he got hit?

While PP does have a higher average than both Uribe & Crede, he isn't exactly tearing the cover off the ball. I don't want to give up 2 prospects & a roster player to get him, we need to give Pablo a few more starts to see what he can do before we make a move for PP.

Ok, I have a nerd question. Yoda was supposed to be several hundred years old right? Is this because of his race(whatever that is), or does it have something to do with the force?

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ May 23, 2005 -> 11:54 PM) A team's gotta learn from its mistakes. If we keep saying, "it's only one loss, we can't keep this pace up, we're still in first," we might end up in the same position we were in last year. A .689 winning% for a full season is 112 games. We will not win 112 games.
