Usually makes me chuckle...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 8, 2006 -> 01:21 PM) Yes but this does reflect poorly onto all Sox fans. Turning it into a 3-page argument and bringing up his age (which shouldn't matter) is unnecessary and just keeps pushing this topic to the top of the forum. (Although the banter is a little bit entertaining. ) My only suggestion is that it all be in one thread instead of a daily one that clutters up the board...at least until we all get tired of them...

Naming every thread (insert player's name)talk might get old quick.

I would recommend choosing from the song list from the Chicago Bulls Greatest Hits album. I believe there is a 2nd edition now too. I had (can't find it) the first one and it was a lot of the songs played at the stadium, songs associated with the Bulls, and player introductions along with sound clips from moments in Bulls history.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Jun 5, 2006 -> 12:41 PM) That makes a lot of sense, but as you said, Isaiah has proven that he is not the sharpest GM. It would be amazingly dumb to trade Frye for another SG-in-a-PG's-body, but who would have thought that he'd already have 5 highly paid shoot-first guards players on the roster? Does anybody remember rumors of him getting offers for Frye but frye being basically untouchable? Trying to remember but maybe my mind is failing me... But yeah, it would be awesome if he trotted out an all-SG lineup...Maybe he doesn't like anybody being too much taller than him?? Anything to keep me fantasizing about Oden...

QUOTE(LVSoxFan @ Jun 5, 2006 -> 12:25 PM) -Another shade of 2004. Does everybody remember that in 2005 Frank barely played? And yet, without his huge bat, we were killing. I wonder if introducing a slugger again (Thome) has somehow upset the chemistry resulting in yes, better averages but not the complete team concept we had in 2005. Just a thought. Didn't we play well when he played? Trying to remember but I think I recall us playing better with him than without him...or maybe I'm wrong...

Weren't they not looking to trade Frye last year? I know I'll get an "Isiah is dumb" response, and they're supposedly interested in Ben, but what are the chances really? I would think they'd try to unload The Greatest PG in the World or francis before they try to aquire another guard.

They have me as a fan!

QUOTE(mmmmmbeeer @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 10:40 PM) Seriously, probably 80% of our losses have revolved around one of the following: 1.) BA can't hit 2.) Mackowiak can't field 3.) Uribe's O or D 4.) Bullpen Bullpen is number one.

QUOTE(DePloderer @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 03:10 AM) Shuffles out of the room with his head down. Awww. I really liked the idea. And we looked s***ty again tonight even without your banner...

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 10:27 PM) Anderson's defense has taken on a Chuck Norris like mythology on this site. Greatest defensive center-fielder of all time...

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 10:20 PM) Do you BA naysayers f***ing get it yet? Brian took himself out of the game with his horrid bat...A hit in a key situation was needed, and any sane person would have zero confidence in him to get a hit...besides, the bullpen continues to be our glaring problem...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 04:57 PM) Why is it everytime I see Anderson's name in there I smile? Piss break every at-bat? I have a very good feeling about Garland and Brian tonight...or maybe I'm just jinxing them...

QUOTE(henry wiggins @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 12:13 PM) With all due respect, the words of undercover cops who worked there, reported 2nd or 3rd or 4th hand, are not credible evidence. http://www.geocities.com/inquisitive79/fal....html#authority Cops in Chicago tend to not be very fond of certain neighborhoods, and cops may very well have personal views that color (no pun intended) what they relate. Got any pics of bullet holes in UD seats? Got any news reports mentioning such bullet holes? Another feature of the race/class aspect of all this is that we city residents tend to get really annoyed when the stereotypes, generalizations, and canards are put about by people who don't live in the city and have not spent any real time in the areas that they say are so horrible. I'm a lifelong resident of the south side, and I can't begin to explain the context and background for some of this to people who grew up in or live now in suburbs or outside of the Chicago area. Welcome and keep up the great posts. You certainly can't believe everything you hear, and experience definitely trumps hearsay...

Poor Deplorer...I still luv his work...

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 09:27 PM) He's chillin with Chris Young, in a trade we're going to curse for a long time could have used BMac as fifth starter, kept Viz and had Young for CF. McCarthy doing as well as or better than Javier (arguably our 2nd most consistent starter) is a nice thought...I have my doubts...

QUOTE(greg775 @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 09:24 PM) I just want to know what happened after the 11-0 win? Did Cleveland sack up or did we somehow turn comatose? Welcome back to the pennant race, Tribe assholes. A little from column A...a lot from column B...

Remember when Ozzie was saying McCarthy could be the closer early on? I don't buy that he can't be effective in the pen because he's meant to be a starter...I really wanna see him step up...

QUOTE(rudylaw @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 09:16 PM) K Keeping runs off the board is Mission:Impossible for our bullpen? Is that what we're doing?

Remember when we beat cleveland 11-0 at cleveland??

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 09:03 PM) Why isn't anyone looking at the pile of s*** we call a minor league system and questioning where the pitching help is? I thought that was your job?

QUOTE(Brian @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 08:58 PM) These two girls on the Spelling Bee have ice water in their veins. Can they pitch in relief?

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 1, 2006 -> 08:53 PM) When the kid says he doesn't feel comfortable in the pen because he can't get a feel for his offspeed pitches, and he's not a flame thrower....maybe he's not a good fit for the bullpen. He needs to nut up...he was lookin' good at the start...
