Cingular looks like the best coverage, but I dont think they have an in network plan where its free to other users in the network. Everyone else has that plan.

pretty pathetic help from the soxtalk community

I fully expect to be residing in cali within the next 3 years, with a transfer, I shoul dbe set. Never one for the cold weather though, im guessing I will be in San Diego.

I could hit El Duque, sit on the breaking pitch and wallop it. Not tough, he wont through a 2 strike fastball to save his life.

tough to be southside from Northbrook, but welcome all the same.

SF woudl be a great city to move to. Unfortunatley it is 10 times more expensive than chicago.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 01:17 PM) How many f***ing times can Homer be in debt to the mob? They just rehash the same f***ing plot over and over. Continuously repeating the same lame ass plot and using the same annoying celebrity guest voices over and over is not ingeniousness, it's laziness and utter stupidity. Formula for every Simpsons plot: 1.) Homer does something stupid 2.) Marge gets pissed. Sometimes leaves him 3.) Homer thinks of ways to get her back on his good side. 4.) A celebrity shows up 5.) A bunch of stupid s*** happens 6.) Marge takes him back after seeing just how much he loves her. This is the same plot structure they have had since the show began. Homer is stupid, thats why he is funny. ONly onle episode was he smart.

wow, thats addictive.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 12:33 PM) I was looking over an episode list of The Simpsons and found that the last time the show was even remotely funny was at the beginning of Season 11 which was Oct. of '99, 6 f***ing years ago, that was also 130 episodes ago. Also I'm being extremely lenient with this as well, I think the first maybe 6 episodes of that season were kind of funny. It's sad when a show overstays it's welcome by 6 years and 130 episodes. I disagree, I think the Simpsons gets funnier every year. The plots are genius, and the turns are hilarious. Its the same type of comedy that makes Family guy so funny. On another note, it seems to me that family guy is just doing the same thing over and over. someone says, "oh its not as werid as the time I did x with x" then they fade into a flashback of someone doing something ridiculous with a historical figure or celebrity. I admit its funny, but you cant just keep doing that every episode.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 12:14 PM) I've had Cingular (started as Cellular One) since 1998. Have had great service - but I make sure to get Nokia phones as the other ones I have tried have been sub-par. the only problem is that I need a blackberry or other handheld as I get e-mails from work.

reckless posting no doubt

QUOTE(Greg The Bull Luzinski @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 12:52 PM) I agree 100% about Everett depite Hawk salivating over his clutch hitting. But who do we DH then, much like most people on this board, everybody in the organization seems to hate Gload. Ozuna might not be a bad choice. Borchard and Anderson are stuck on the end of the bench as defensive replacements. They are just like the scrolling background in a Flintstone's cartoon to Ozzie. Kong DH, Gload 1B or vice versa. I feel more comfortable with Gload taking hacks than Carl at this point, and KOng showed the he can hit as a DH.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 12:03 PM) I understand the frustration with Duque, but let's give some credit to Ana. That is a solid ball club who handed it to Mark B. and Garland as well. MB has been garbage lately as well. Look at his game on friday. 2 leads, lost them both. Something is wrong with Mark, and he needs to figure it out pronto.

Funny that years ago everyone hated Shaq. Look what aging can do to superstars. He is nothing but awesome for doing his part. Beats the measly 50k that was donated by some stars.

I see no reason to play Carl, none at all. He has bottomed out this month, and looks damn near lost from the left side of the plate.

QUOTE(Whitesoxfan56 @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:44 AM) Your best bet is to get Nextel/Sprint. Some people love it and some dont like it that much. I love it. I get service everywere, and have never had any "big" problems with it. Ofcorse you are going to have the minor problems, but the biggest problem that I have had was it took 2 mins to send a text message...thats not that big of a deal to me and it only did it for a few days. I have also have US Cellular and it just sucks...i never got any service. Thats what I already have, and had for 6 years or so. The bills seem a bit high, and I hear nothing but good things about the other two big players.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 10:15 AM) As for saying there are plenty of QB's that don't make it in the 1st round, yeah over history that's been the case, but it hasn't been the norm. From what the last about 5 years the year just after the Smith, McNown fiasco etc. the QB's selected have generally been very good. What part of 4 first round QB's winning the super bowl since 1970 didnt look clear? That means that the rest of the superbowl champion QB's were not first rounders. Which means its the norm for a first round QB to NOT be successful. Rex is done, and its the smart move. He wont be back this season, and if he is, he wont play. Orton is your QB of the future, and Rex is maybe a backup, maybe a player for another team. But if your player breaks down 3 years in a row, you get rid of him, thats it.

0-1 0-1 0-1 all three games

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:35 AM) They get Tracy and then sign Kong for DH and make a shot at Furcal and move over Uribe to 3rd and we have something. Im all for making Kong the DH, and trying to get overbay. BUt that scenario is just as good IMO.

I have been a loyal Spring PCS customer for around 6 years, and now that my contracts are up, I have been looking at other options. Here in the city I heard alot about Cingular and T-mobile. I am curious to know other's experiences with different services, and what you have, and why you have it.

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:25 AM) I think you can be a major fan of one team and have a semi-rooting interest in other, no matter what sport. Yeah, sorry if i came off strong, i had just gotten back from a bad class thats cool. Im just wondering how some people are saying USC is my team, yet they have no connection to them , and didnt like them 4 years ago. Thats the only problem I have with it. All of the teams I root for I have personal connections with, and I guess I just dont see the other side of the argument.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:10 AM) Most people on here know how I feel. I think Contreras will get traded in the offseason. and I think that is a huge mistake. He has been the most solid starter in the second half. Why would you trade away your best pitcher lately?

QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 11:05 AM) Right, that's why the Sox will keep him ... depth. so we should pay for a 6th starter?

QUOTE(AssHatSoxFan @ Sep 12, 2005 -> 10:38 AM) CLE doesn't play Boston at all their schedule shakes out like this the rest of the way 7 KC, 6 CHW, 3 OAK, 3 TB it down to how we play Cle, to determine who wins this division.
