QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ May 3, 2005 -> 11:05 PM) I'm not saying he is a great player, but I don't understand how a player that is ripped on by everyone and is considered to be overrated by everyone can actually be overrated. In order to be overrated it makes sense that you would have to be thought of highly in the first place. Get ready for the double-team...

QUOTE(qwerty @ May 3, 2005 -> 09:55 PM) Please pacers beat the s*** out of the celtics... Why? I hate both teams almost equally, but probably the pacers a little more...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 3, 2005 -> 09:52 PM) We are on the road this weekend. We leave town after the KC series. We come home next Thursday against Baltimore, and we have sold over 20K tickets for each game already. That series will probably go over 120k if the Sox do anything on this road trip. Yeah, that's what I meant. :banghead

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ May 3, 2005 -> 08:51 PM) Ouch. I've been watching Glavine, and he's been unfortunate to say the least. I'm in soxtalk league 3 (12 teams). There are a lot of starters available that I'd like to either own or take a chance on. You can't say the same for any position on offense...the cupboard is completely dry outside of some Rockies sleepers. Guys that I would pick up right now if I had room: John Patterson Matt Morris (ignoring 04 splits) Joel Pineiro (ignoring 04 splits) Erik Bedard Guys that I'd be willing to take a chance on: Ryan Franklin 1.17 WHIP Victor Santos 1.01 WHIP Aaron Heilman 1.16 WHIP Joe Blanton 1.15 WHIP David Bush 1.21 WHIP Yeah, I was dropping him and adding that santos guy when I posted. His were the only numbers that look decent from what's available...Half the guys from that 2nd list are available. 16-team league...currently in 2nd, and fading...but it's just for fun... benitez :banghead Oh yeah...thanx.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 3, 2005 -> 09:48 PM) He IS wrong on this. The Sox just had their best April Attendance mark since 1994. There are more people coming out to the park. He is just too damned lazy to do some research. Yeah, maybe if it was the weekend... Seriously though, make-or-break this weekend. No excuses. Let's get out there and support this damn team.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ May 3, 2005 -> 09:43 PM) Actually he took note of the condition and took note of who they were playing. He said, "I understand it's 42 degrees in Chicago and that they are playing the KC Royals, but god, show up. You have a 1st place team and something exciting to watch." I agree with him. We finally have a winning team which so many people complained as the main reason why they haven't showed up to games, and they are drawing less than last year so far. People show up. I didn't show up today, but I plan on showing up tommorow and the following game. Like I said, 60+games. Yeah, I agree... At least he did state the weather and team. Nobody likes to hear it. Neither do I. It's not like there's anything else to do in bridgeport...

I tend to look at the bright side during bad situations... Hopefully more DJ home run calls!!!!!!!!

I said it before... Iguchi is f***in' badass... Drafted him 14th round in a 16-league team and 16th round in a 12-teamer

attendance :banghead

I guess dropping fogg and picking up glavine to start tonight was a horrible idea too... s***

QUOTE(fathom @ May 3, 2005 -> 07:26 PM) The funny thing is that I wanted to just have a nice game tonight, like Sunday, without anything to complain about. Then, they go and do that s*** in the first inning, and totally pisses me off. It's not tough for people on the board to find something to complain about... Buehrle sucks!

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 3, 2005 -> 07:03 PM) I guess the argument there is how can Gordon be more valuable if he's not starting? And Sleepy, yes Howard was the 3rd option on his team, because well you expect that coming out of high school. But if you have a look at his post all - star stats, he would have been a worth ROY in my eyes. Frankly, he didn't pretty welll to just average double digits with Steve Francis on his team. By the way, in what place was the magic at the all-star break and where were they at the end of the season? Those post-all-star numbers don't seem to have helped much. But yeah, there's not much to argue. I just think the voting was right. Howard will probably be a star too anyways...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 3, 2005 -> 02:17 PM) I still think Howard should have taken 2nd place. A bunch of single-digit games...barely averaged double digit boards...barely...20th in the league in blocks isn't exactly eye-catching...3rd/4th option on the team... He'll be good, but he isn't there yet. Ben won a lot more games for the Bulls than howard did for the magic. His 4th quarters stand out a lot more than anything howard did. They got it right.

He'll be back...

QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ May 3, 2005 -> 01:36 PM) How about John Patterson, Erik Bedard, Scott Kazmir, etc? Are all of these dudes taken? I want Patterson, but I have three guys on the DL, and only one DL spot. I'm kinda pissed that there's only one DL spot in soxtalk leagues. It doesn't make much sense. All taken. I'm open for other suggestions.

QUOTE(danman31 @ May 3, 2005 -> 04:06 PM) Damnit, Mr. Automatic Turnover is only going to help the Wizards by not playing. My favorite Scottie quote from his announcing so far, "I don't like anything about his game," when speaking of Kwame. PIP Great, more minutes for etan thomas to dominate tyson...

QUOTE(T R U @ May 2, 2005 -> 05:59 PM) Arrested Development sucks a fat one, hopefully they can that stupid ass show The first season was good, which may be why it won all those awards... Nice jersey...

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 2, 2005 -> 09:55 PM) That's never a good idea. Actually, he was 1-1 with a 2.45 era and 14 k's before tonight. He's been serviceable, but now I have to search the waivers... Not much is available in a 16-team league. :banghead

QUOTE(The Critic @ May 2, 2005 -> 07:50 PM) This is one area at which this site gets "PWN3D" ( as the kids today like to say ) by WSI. I also recommend the 75% off teacher coupons... Someone might as well post all the codes... Edit: s***, they're already pinned. Nice work.

I guess starting josh fogg in fantasy tonight wasn't a good idea...

They've been beating us a lot worse than we beat them... Food for thought...

Anybody else gettin' worried that we might lose this series?

QUOTE(rangercal @ May 2, 2005 -> 08:35 PM) Red Kerr: "If washington scores 10 pts, the bulls need to score 30 to tie." No s***! RED! I broke out the ol' calculator. Damn, he's good...

QUOTE(rangercal @ May 2, 2005 -> 08:30 PM) bulls are showings signs of life Tom dore : "the lead was 28, its down to 20" We cut it to 20 going into the 4th!!!
