QUOTE(Kalapse @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 01:18 PM) Why can't we get fair value? For some reason I don't think the 1 year rental tag will hamper Garland's value all that much. It just seems like the market on pitchers is so f***ed that someone will end up giving us a good package for Garland. If they can get more, then get more. What do I know? I'm no GM. I'm just saying I'd love Blalock...or Tejada...

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 01:16 PM) Fred Taylor is a bum...I traded him and Keenan McCardell for Marvin Harrison after week 5. Id say it worked out pretty good for me. that trade shouldn't even be allowed. Is this for money? Is so, I'd be crying bulls*** in that league. McCardell and Taylor suck, and Marvin is on the hottest offensive team in the NFL. I am in the championship game in both my leagues. Two wins would mean over $1000 in winnings. I also finished both leagues in first. I rule.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 01:13 PM) Why not get fair value for Garland instead of just dumping him because "we have too many pitchers." If we're not getting a great deal for Garland we could use BMac out of the pen as the long man and go with an absolutely studly starting rotation. I'd rather hold onto Garland and either move him mid-season or take the draft picks than move him for a trade I don't feel we get the better of. The problem is that he can walk after this year. so we won't get fair market value. If we walk away with Blalock, I'm happy.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 01:09 PM) All-Star selections will always carry wheight in people's minds because the All-Star game means something to a lot of people. IMO, All-Star selections don't mean a whole hell of a lot but that's just because I disagree with a lot of the selections. Most people tend to agree with the selections. He may be better than Crede but the trade rumors are not Crede for Blalock which would be a no doubter. The rumors are Garland and Crede for Blalock and Wilkerson/a spect (not Danks or Diamond). I'm not so sure that's a slam dunk. I don't know...why not get rid of a guy who we aren't going to have after this year. We have 6 starters. Someone has to go. McCarthy is ready...and ready to be awesome. If we get Blalock, I'll be ecstatic.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 01:05 PM) well there IS a reason that when considering a player for the hall of fame, the amount of all start selections is brought up. Especially when introducing a player. It carries weight. Regardless, he is still a better player than Crede, home, away , offensively, defensively, he is a better player i'm with you Rock...I would love Blalock, and if we could trade Crede, Garland, and then get Blalock and a prospect or 2, that would be awesome. Imagine our 3-6...Thome, Kong, Blalock, Dye...best in baseball...we win world series...give us the trophy now.

QUOTE(Steff @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 12:19 PM) I was wearing a lighter hooded jacket underneath. LMAO.. the odds. I drank hot chocolate like it was going out of style. Problem is that it was too cold so it didn't stay hot for long. I had 2 pairs of gloves on and those hand warmers.. nothing was helping. Humans aren't made to be out in that weather. It was 101 degrees COLDER then body temp... I love the Bears, but I wouldn't go to that game with free tix. I like watching them on TV. The Sox are the ones you need to watch up close and personal. you are brave.

Another thing, maybe they saw how well Sox WS Champ stuff was selling, and decided they needed to make one of these for us. Nice work White Sox consumers!

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Dec 19, 2005 -> 11:53 AM) How do you know? I can't find anything on that ad that says this. What about the postgame stuff? Edit - I think I see the link now. If its 7 discs, it has to be every game. You can fit 2 games per DVD, if not more. I can't wait.

Got both of mine...haven't figured out how I want to display them.

Sounds like it will be all the playoff games. Booya!

anyone who was saying that Grossman would be the same as Orton, was a moron. I have been calling for Grossman for 3 weeks. And he didn't dissappoint. Thank God. Now we have a chance at a championship.

Watching Game 1 here on Comcast HD. However, they are not showing the HD coverage. What the? That's crap. I wonder if this will just be the ESPN games. Anyone have a clue?

I'm all for sending Crede and Garland to Texas...but can we actually expect Texas to trade a guy who is signed for 3 more years, for two guys who can walk after this season? Doesn't seem likely to me.

Howard gave a great speech...and on yahoo they are continuging the coverage...howard and the gang are headed there for a party...and Cheryl Crow is going ot perform...how awesome.

Staind is there...about to sing the Beetle Juice song.

Amen brother

"This handheld, portable radio lets you listen and record your favorite Sirius radio programs on the go. You can even download your favorite MP3s for even more listening enjoyment." If this doesn't get the signal on the go, this is false advertising.

QUOTE(Steff @ Dec 15, 2005 -> 02:12 PM) Yes.. and my cd player is portable also.. but it doesn't receive radio transmissions. Oh, it doesn't get the signal unless its plugged in or something? That is dumb. I'm not an mp3 person, so this would be of no interest to me, especially at this price.

QUOTE(Steff @ Dec 15, 2005 -> 01:53 PM) And I'm telling you I have been on the phone with Sirius and every electronics source all morning looking to buy it. They are telling me that it's not portable. It's recordable... This says portable.... Linky

Steff, Stern showed the portable unit last night. It looks like an ipod. It can store hours of Sirius programming, and its an MP3 player. That's all I know.

QUOTE(Rex Kickass @ Dec 15, 2005 -> 11:40 AM) There are enough other people doing things similar to what he's done - and MOST people who listen to radio aren't so strongly attached to any personality to follow them to a paid service. XM thought they could do it with Opie and Anthony and that turned out to be a bomb. If I was CBS/Infinity, I would have made Howard Stern sit out his show from the day he announced the switch until next month. It leads me to believe that his show will be back on regular radio - sooner than later. No one does what Howard does. They may try, but its not good. And comparing Opie and Anthony to Howard, shows me you are clueless.

QUOTE(nvxplorer @ Dec 15, 2005 -> 01:38 PM) I got the MLB official DVD the other day. It’s very good as well. Where can I order this Comcast DVD? Just go to the Sox Website...and you can purchase it through MLB.

Stern was on Best Damn Sports Show last night...he was excellent as always. He showed that new portable unit to the audience. Tomorrow should be pretty cool. I hope he causes a hugh scene in Manhatten and traffic shuts down. That would rock. Jackie on today was awesome. That guy was a riot. Love Artie too. My favorite moment....hmmm...that's tough. I enjoyed the day they beat the girl with a fish, for the first time. Every time he comes up with this stuff, I'm stunned. My favorite parts of the day was always the news. And Howard has been a bright spot of my day for 10 years now. Love you Howard...my Sirius is just waiting to listen to you.

QUOTE(Steff @ Dec 15, 2005 -> 09:35 AM) But, but, but... Jim.. you're trying to rationalize with someone who wanted to shoot Kenny execution style for letting Frank go 2 weeks ago. Execution style is the only style.

QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ Dec 15, 2005 -> 08:58 AM) I LOVE THAT DEAL ! EVEN IF THE SOX DON'T WANT WILKERSON AND LIKE B. ANDERSON, THEN THEY CAN EASILY MOVE WILKERSON FOR SOME GOOD BULLPEN HELP. HE IS A PLAYER THAT WOULD BE IN DEMAND. THAT WOULD BE GREAT FOR THE SOX. I'm with you...love Crede...but we wouldn't lose defensively with Blalock and we would have him for years...where is crede could be gone soon...especially with Bor-ass as his agent.
