QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 01:08 AM) Sorry to let you down, but I think we all know Rice will still take the Catholic Blue again. Barely beat my Meteors...

QUOTE(cgaudin @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 04:19 PM) That cat has been overrated all year. Bring back the head-shake smiley!

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 04:00 PM) I asked this in the game thread: who's more overrated right now, McCarthy or Anderson? QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 04:10 PM) If I was in KW's position the first pitcher I would get rid of is Vasquez. I give up on wondering why people want Javy gone before garcia... QUOTE(Heads22 @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 04:50 PM) If you don't like it, leave.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Sep 8, 2006 -> 01:04 PM) vercitility That's a new one for me.

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 01:44 PM) I am whiter than the whitest white man. Since you called out sf1, and rightfully so...aren't you a big old-school hip-hop fan?

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 8, 2006 -> 11:44 AM) The amount of people who would rather keep Garcia over Vazquez is appalling. Yes. Yes, it is. I question if they watch the games.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 09:43 PM) The Indians just hit some good pitches tonight, and got lucky with a couple of balls not hit well. The Sox hit into some tough luck. And that's all Ozzie's fault. Do you honestly think Buehrle would have given up those runs if jerry manuel was still the manager??

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 09:37 PM) Buerhle was as bad as ever tonight. Ozzie's fault

Well, since we're just speculating... I think he had a Snicker's bar, a bottle of lemon-lime Gatorade, and a Flinstone's vitamin.

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 04:01 PM) Catholicism totally does. Let me just get this one straight... What you're saying is that Catholicism is a "stupid religion" that encourages "poor people to have tons of kids"???

QUOTE(MichiganBorn @ Sep 7, 2006 -> 01:52 PM) I figure if I don't have anything intelligent to say I shouldn't post. A foreign concept on soxtalk...

Rather quiet when we play well...

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Sep 6, 2006 -> 01:48 PM) Meh. Stingrays are generally docile creatures. One of the most deadly poisons a spider can carry is housed in the body of a daddy long legs. Of course we have no problem messing with them. True. Maybe it wasn't as anywhere near as crazy as the other things he's famous for doing, but he was still doing something fairly dangerous. Diving with sting rays isn't an everyday thing.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 6, 2006 -> 01:45 PM) If they did their Homework,they would have known that move was coming 3 weeks ago... Yep. All information about his knee was bad, and readily available for a while now. I only would have taken him as a late-round gamble, but he usually went way higher than I would have taken him in earlier drafts.

QUOTE(Steff @ Sep 6, 2006 -> 08:34 AM) Totally his eyes and mouth and holy head of hair! You think those droopy eyes are his?

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 11:17 PM) I'd like to see him "pick" on Pods or Garcia the same way. Why would you want to hear Ozzie issue challenges to either for next year if it's most likely that neither will be on the team next year??? QUOTE(BHAMBARONS @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 11:27 PM) When is somebody going to do something with his uncontrollable mouth. If he feels this way fine discuss it in private with Brian not air it out to the media. Am I missing the part where Ozzie dissed Brian's mom? And for the record, I like Anderson and am very glad to see him finally picking it up with the bat. His glove has been outstanding. I want to see him start almost every game now too. But you're being ridiculous if you can't admit that he was atrocious at the plate for the first half, looked lost, and did need to sit down at times for the benefit of the team and himself. Unfortunately, the only guy available was Mackowiak. Now Ozzie seems set in his ways...

He's the exact same manager who managed this team to a championship and we all luved last year, minus the excellent pitching...

They're sometimes giving out some very nice free stuff in downtown...

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 03:02 PM) But seriously, I really have no tv shows that I actually watch week after week. Me either. The last for me was the first season of Arrested Development. I'll probably catch The Office whenever I can.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 02:16 PM) What exactly are you disagreeing with? I said it was instinctive, I didn't say it's right. I also mentioned in tells a lot about the dad's agression, and not in a positive way. I was disagreeing with your trying to find a positive in the father's actions. I understand where you were going with the whole "fatherly instincts" idea, but I think that would be more about protecting than aggressive retaliation. I think the retaliation would have more to do with problems with aggression, as you stated in the post I quoted, than fatherly instincts. You just can't go around beating up every kid your child's age who gets into a fight with your own child. That action put lots more people in danger because it insighted a big brawl.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 01:33 PM) Why? If you score alot of points, this fake indian chief will do a gay little dance for you. Yes that makes sense. Naming a city after the area where the tribe lived is very much the same as a college student dressing up in "ceremonial" garb doing a fake gymnastics-based routine at halftime of a game. Why dont we just have all the cheeleaders take communion every time the team scores, would that be ok with you? lol Although you'll probably get the argument that the ridiculous dance is "authentic," I agree with what you're saying. And the supposed sentimental attachment to a silly mascot is far too exaggerated...

QUOTE(Texsox @ Sep 5, 2006 -> 01:55 PM) I didn't think the hit was bad, the other kid popped right back up. The dad's hit was worse. I think it was instinctive, but I think it tells a lot about the agression in the father. He took off in a split second. Hits like that are a dime a dozen . . . I'm gonna have to disagree..."instincts" or not, you have to recognize that you're a 36-or-whatever adult about to knock the crap out of a 13-year-old boy, and that's just not the right reaction for the action that occurred. It was a late and not-very-violent hit in football with full pads, not someone taking a gun or a knife out on the kid.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 11:30 PM) And last year I felt he was a piss poor manager as well. Not great by any stretch, but "piss poor" is an exaggeration...

QUOTE(chimpy2121 @ Sep 4, 2006 -> 02:32 PM) Yes Actually, it doesn't really matter for me because we only have one TV to watch it on. Tailgating starts in 30 minutes I was there for Wide Left at the Orange Bowl rooting for FSU. Great atmosphere, regardless of how the outcome felt...

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Sep 3, 2006 -> 12:09 AM) From my understanding, no NCAA violations were broken, as the public was locked out of the event. I thought I heard that it would be a violation for pictures to be taken? And supposedly Rose is going to visit all of the schools in his top 5...
