What happened to all of the choke avatars and guarantees that we'd miss the playoffs?

It isn't likely, but Duque over Viz seemed like a very obvious choice for me.

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:42 PM) If there's a tribetalk, they probably need all the choke avatars. lol Soxtalk should have them patented by now.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 06:46 PM) Nope all of them. Makes me appreciate my Jordan red road jersey, NBA Top 50 edition. Original or replica? I remember the gold logo. I was never tempted to buy an authentic jersey because of the outrageous prices... I just have a Jordan replica. Road red Champion from '96 which will probably always be my favorite pro basketball uniform.

I've played Trivial Pursuit.

I will also appreciate it if this thread can be used in case anyone finds any deals, discounts, etc. that they can share. Yes, I'm a cheap bastard, and although I really, really like the shirts worn after the game in which they clinched, I'm still considering waiting for any sort of discount I can get. That shirt is the only thing I'm considering...although multiple World Series shirts would be purchased immediately...

QUOTE(whitesoxjr27 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:57 PM) i used to eat and smoke too. guess that made me moronic trash. Nope. There's more about you that contributes to that.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:55 PM) Just because some people find it annoying that means you have to have government intervention? What I meant by "But in my personal opinion" was that I was giving my personal opinion...I find smokers in restaurants annoying... But in regards to what you said, I think that the government should have a right to do so if they can provide valid proof that it is harmful to non-smokers. There needs to at least be better ways to seperate smoking and non-smoking areas than by posting a sign. The damn smoking is still going to travel around the whole restaurant, especially if you're in the non-smoking area in certain restaurants right next to the smoking area.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:40 PM) I also heard some very derogatory names thrown around in the backround while doing the interviews. Do tell.

QUOTE(whitesoxjr27 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:45 PM) i agree with nuke 100%. i started smoking at 15 or 16 i dont recall which one. i quit smoking on aug 9th 2005. i'm 27 now. i enjoyed smoking. i will miss it 20 years from now. if you dont like cigarettes dont go into bars. wanna start a smoke free bar go for it. bars and cigarettes just fit together. goverment needs to stop sticking its noise where it does not belong. if i was a bar owner and they banned smoking in my bar and i started losing tons of money cause people who smoke cant come into my bar. i would go off on someone. Well, sure... But in my personal opinion, people who are eating with one hand while smoking and holding a cig in the other look like absolute moronic trash. It should definitely be banned in restaurants. That's just annoying as hell.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:43 PM) I think the Bulls have done a better job than most of updating their uniforms and still maintaining the class of the uniform. All I have to do is look at the fashion atrocities that Dallas, Golden State, La Clips, Denver, Washington and countless others have thrown onto their team, and I know that the Bulls are always gonna look better. Only now they are trying to play better. I agree with you 100%.

QUOTE(BDavisFutureHOF @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 12:11 PM) P.S. --> I am a cheap bastard

QUOTE(OilCan @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:21 PM) *YAWN*....Basic stuff...next!

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:10 PM) I think the old Bulls one(before last year) were the best ones. I don't like the new shiny mesh they used and I don't like the Bull on the back. Were the black ones the only shiny ones? I was under that impression since I didn't really notice it with the red ones.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 01:01 PM) Yeah, but no one is forced to do anything in that scenario, really. I hate the smell of cigarette smoke, but I just think that smokers are kind of being piled on right now. Need a new tax? Tax cigarettes. But then make them stand outside and smoke, as if they were dogs taking a s***. I dunno.... Well, it isn't exactly the most healthy thing to do for your body to begin with...

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 12:29 PM) Anyone else think Jose kinda holds a beer like a pansy? lol I think his hands are just really big... Did I just say that?

The Bulls better not even think of making any changes... I'm not a big fan of the newer style of the black alternates (wider over the shoulders and no piping), and I'm iffy on the Bulls logo they put on the back recently. Even though it's a biased opinion, I think the Bulls uniform is the nicest in the NBA...much better than the celtics uniform, and head and shoulders above the rest...

You chat crew guys are such losers...

Aw, good stuff.

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 04:08 PM) $25 isn't awful, it's not good, but it's not awful. Oh, I know, but personally, I'm a thrifty shopper. I just hate the idea of buying them now while knowing they'll be on clearance for $10 next month.

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 03:59 PM) i love love love love love love love this one I hate, hate, hate, hate, hate, the prices.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 02:09 AM) And i think those that think ozzie is a good game manager don't understand the game of basebal very well. And if you want to talk forest-trees: Lou Piniella. Teach me please.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 12:29 AM) Pods is 6 for 20 since july 23rd. He sucks. I still say he was great those 1st 2 months. I liked a healthy, confident Pods early on.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 12:26 AM) I'm just thankful they totally underachieved during the first part of the season. Who knows how far out we'd be if they played anywhere close to their abilities. I don't think there's any argument about which team has more talent. It's even more fun to think about the possibilities for next year...

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 12:20 AM) How is that Pods' fault that his teammates can't get him over? For pussying out on stealing 2nd, 3rd, and home.
