Look at those factors on both sides. Such as Anderson getting a lot of his ABs early only against lefties. When there was any mediocre righty that everyone could light up, Rob was put in. CC or Johan? Brian. Or how mutiple hit games or multiple games with a hit meant being benched (sometimes more than a game). Being called out in the media or the manager constantly jokes that you'll be in Charlotte soon. Yeah, that's what a developing player needs who's already a headcase at the plate.

Sox ruined my photoshop right after I created it

At first I thought 'cool' for the 05 connection, but then I thought 'Why?'. All this because Ozzie has some vendetta? Anderson is better in center and could probably be better on offense if he got regular playing time. I wouldn't have hated getting Rowand to play left, but only if we had gotten Rollins as well to lead off

They do Gameday for Spring Training now? Badass. Meanwhile Floyd's Sox hat is one of the worst photoshops I've ever seen

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Mar 6, 2007 -> 07:51 PM) As a fellow human? Yes. As a Sox fan? No. Updated for the Vazquez deal: http://img260.imageshack.us/img260/5161/so...actsheetwf9.jpg Badass. Okay, I am a moron, so a few questions. I know TO is team option, BO? And what is the service number? Also, I a friend of mine uses the Google spreadsheet which seems pretty nice since it hosts it online. Just a recc in case if it'd be pain in the ass to do screen captures everytime . Prob can't colorcode it though (well not sure). EDIT: Nevermind, realized that service is number of years in the majors, duh.

Yeah, mlb.tv increased the quality, but you have to pay extra for that and all those other new features they keep repping. And I think they raised the price between early in the offseason and just recently, since I was watching it earlier. You'd think they could at least give a spring training free preview, you know, let people see the pq and how their computers run things, morons. And I don't think it's official yet, probably likely, but that site in the first post jumped the gun a little

QUOTE(retro1983hat @ Mar 6, 2007 -> 10:54 AM) Am I the only one that finds it odd that an American Idol reject and winner of Best SUPPORTING Actress gets an official day from the city, including the need to close down streets? Maybe this is to show the Olympic people we can throw a party, but this feels like we are welcoming home someone to Dirtbox, KY, not Chicago. I agree, I was almost shocked when I heard that, felt like I lived in some small town in Nebraska

I'm not the biggest fan but I think he could win around 70 games and he would be fine for the following year. If anything, I'd say it would have to be from doing something really really stupid, possibly worse than just comments.

bye bye contract

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Feb 24, 2007 -> 08:32 PM) Frank has not always been nice to the media, but I have never once heard that he was a bad teammate. I love the man and always will, he will always be my favorite player in a White Sox uni and favorite baseball player ever. Can't wait till he is enshrined in Cooperstown. I'm sure most people would hate the media if they were in the player position too. Stupid media perceives the player's personality to the public based on how the player treats them, when there's no way of knowing unless you actually know the player. When I was a kid I was worried about meeting Frank since all I heard about what a douchebag he was and he's actually one of the nicest guy's I've met, and have multiple autos/pics just from him hanging out before games. I can't say the same for other players we used to have

Agree on too over the top. Especially with Roy and his brother just starting to trash the bar, bit lame. Karen was funny though, I had her tagged as the office slut

Is it for sure that they be one service, and not just keep the 2 separate services? It seems like that would complicate things a lot more (just one service)

I thought this one was great, one of the better recent ones

rumor that Anna Nicole Smith is dead

I don't like her, but she's not new or anything, so I don't see any type of hammer coming soon

Still a good deal considering they are down from over $100. And the employee event was a few weeks ago, the coupon (this one was 40%) was online for everyone to use

hello Oscar, how was your gaycation

feel good episode of the year LOL @ Michael thinking the cleaning crew arranged his toys. Also loved the Marv Albert shot. And of course, the big thing of Jim at the end, looks like everyone from Stanford might be gone soon

I heard that Ronaldo may go to NY soon. When Beckham came a few years ago, didn't over 60,000 show for an exhibition? I know it was a mad house around there. The league isn't as bad to watch as some make it out to be, I saw the Fire live a few times and they play a good game. The league just needed this name recognition. Also, now ESPN is going to do the MLS games in HD. It appears things are starting to look good, we'll see QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Jan 12, 2007 -> 12:38 AM) The best player doesn't always dominate...especially with Beckham being a midfielder. There is no doubt he'll score a few goals, but he won't be the superstar everyone thinks he will. He's already showing signs of slowing (much of the English media called him out for it too) and 50 millions dollars isn't really motivation to work harder. his contract is full of incentives, he'll have plenty of motivation

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Jan 11, 2007 -> 10:30 PM) Something I just now thought about. They didn't address the Michael/Jan issue at all this week. We last saw Jan getting all hot for Michael and he had not yet told her about the photo getting out. I would have thought there would be a continuation of that, or at least some mention. Maybe that's next week? If you haven't already and want to see some good stuff go to NBC: The Office and check out the deleted scenes from last week's episode. It seems like this has happened a lot on this show, I would watch them back to back on that site that was linked to in this post to catchup, and it was more noticeable on how a lot of things don't get carried over. It'll probably be talked about later, but something about the next week they must try to avoid or something

Next week's preview: Well the target can't be Dwight if he quit, so this implies he's still in the office, but you never know

What the hell?? This can't last Great episode though, but damn, damn you Andy

definately get the warranty with any laptop. best decision i've made, replacement battery and power cords galore with a phone call.
