QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 10:25 AM) All signs point to one Eddie Harris: I was looking for that quote yesterday, great great movie.

FYI, Paulie is now killing it, althought I did vote for DLEE 4 times.

Cub fans are not smart enough to automate that s***, and they give up easily, we will own every position on the team.

hot streak will end when they stop feasting on last place teams. Look at who they have faced during their streak. Right before they starting winning, they got beat by minny. Then played the NL west. Next they have to actually play us, baltimore, boston and NYY.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 09:52 AM) I know Randar keeps on saying that Rogo will be promoted to Charlotte once the first half of the season ends for Birmingham and once Rogo is promoted to Charlotte Daigle will be promoted to Bham. that sure seems like the logical move, s***, Daigle has more bombs that the big leaguers, this guy is insance right now. And if he really wants a real shot at the show, he needs to bear down when he gets moved up and keep it up. He controls his own destiny at this point.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 12:03 AM) If I some how make it to the cell early tomorrow I'll throw you my slurve. You will cry, I gaurantee it. Nothin beats my knuckler, nothing.

I wont be able to make the game on Sunday night, I have 2 lower box available. Section 115 row 19

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 08:47 AM) I can understand that one... Most still call it 35th and Shields. I still do, thats for sure.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 06:15 PM) If you put homosexuality down everybody will bash you. On the same token though, it's ok to put God and religion down these days. I just don't get our society. Call me what you want. Call me a homophob. I don't care. I agree with carl on that. It is not right. Actually, if you watched the election this year, there are alot more Conservative god-fearing people around than liberals.

Kenny, you post here???

flooding as we speak

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 04:40 PM) Ahhh. Sam is corporate now but he kept some of his long tenure accounts on. He takes a bit longer to respond sometimes since he's usually not in his office. But usually always the same day or he calls us at home. My old one was Julie, she was tha s***

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 04:37 PM) Yikes.. days..? If I don't get an email back within a few hours I call. needless to say I miss my old rep, she was the queen of 10 minute response time.

proceed with the flooding

I usually bank on Joe taking about 2-5 days responding to my e-mails, I wish I worked there, I would have it down to 5 minutes flat.

QUOTE(SHAFTR @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 04:09 AM) Well, there are some facts backing up the Homosexuality/Nature debate. An overwhelming amount of testimonials from homosexuals seems to say they always remember feeling the way they do. Second off, a look at Identical Twins and Fraternal Twins found some convincing evidence. When one identical twin was found to be gay, there was a 50% chance the other was as well. With Fraternal twins, that # is much lower. Everett has proven time and time again that he is an idiot. I don't have a problem unless he becomes an idiot with an agenda. What are they going to say? My parents never loved me and i felt unaccepted in my teenage years so I flocked to being gay as a way of acceptance? Of course people are going to say that they were born a certain way, it absolves you of any real responsibility for how you are. The nature vs nurture debate will continue for ages and no side can win the battle. I did my graduate school research revolving around the topic. Carl is not an idiot, its his opinion. He was asked a question on gays, and he presented how he feels. He didnt go out of his way to campaign against gays, he answered a question with how he feels. ALOT of people think that being gay is wrong, and it doesnt mean that they are wrong in their opinion, there is no right in the situation. We cannot criticize Carl for being relgious or being ridgid in his beliefs. As much as ESPN wants to make us think that he was wrong, a majority of the US would probably agree on several issues with Carl. I dont think we have the right to look at him in a negative light for answering an interview honestly, and in correlation with his beliefs.

QUOTE(Benson&Rexage @ Jun 14, 2005 -> 01:39 PM) "Macho Man" Randy Savage His real name is Randy Poffo. Attended Downers Grove North high school, set state records in baseball and was drafted shortly there after. In 1971, as a junior catcher, he batted .500 at Downers Grove North High School, then hit .521 as a senior. And upon graduation, he was signed by the St. Louis Cardinals organization as a switch-hitting catcher. Upon graduating high school, he earned a professional baseball contract and spent minor league stints as a catcher in the St. Louis Cardinals, Cincinnati Reds, and Chicago White Sox organizations during the early 1970’s. Despite once placing among his league’s leaders in home runs and runs batted in, he never made it to the big leagues; and in November 1973, at just 175 pounds, Randy Poffo made his pro wrestling debut against Paul Christy. I believe he was third in AAA in hr's when he finally moved to wrestling. Oh, and want a tale of toughness, one of his career derailing injuries was a torn rotator cuff, so he switched hands and taught himself to be left-handed and made it to AA with the sox as a firstbaseman before being released.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 03:53 PM) Exactly what I said. The way the story is told.. Freddy coming to the Sox was a long time in the works and they wanted Olivo so the Sox needed a catcher to replace him. John and Jim remember all this better than I.. they were with the guys more than Jen and I were that night. We were too busy laughing at Wille pimpin in the lobby. From what I understand of the situation, Freddy's name came up extremely early in Ozzie's tenure.

I dont drink clear liquor. Gives me a wicked hangover. Stick to the browns-Bourbon-ky whiskey, scotch, tequila etc.

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 01:12 PM) So there was truth to the Chavez talk. haha damn, I wish we would've gotten him. I would have traded the Barons for him.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 02:08 PM) "QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 12:44 PM) No kidding he has no input on final decisions, but where do you think the idea for the makeup of the team came from?" I'm not Kenny, or Ozzie, or Jerry... so everything I post here is my opinion. Looks like the "argument" started when you didn't like my opinion of the way I think things are done. Your answer was the GM, and that Ozzie just manages right? You said that is came from the horses mouth, I assumed you werent talking about a real horse. FWIW, your opinion looked to me like the GM makes all of the calls, makeup, players, philosophy, and Ozzie just manages what he is given. If that is your opinion, then yeah I disagree. But then you agreed with Jim, which was what I believed. Am I wrong?

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 01:54 PM) I bet the season ticket holders wanted to pay just face value for any left overs and the Sox weren't feeling it. Are you sure the money goes to charity? I got several notices about buying extra tickets for the series in the mail. If season ticket holders complain about it now, its their own fault, cause I saw the letters.

QUOTE(Steff @ Jun 16, 2005 -> 12:45 PM) The GM. The manager manages what he is given. End of story. No need to curse steff....jeez. This is the quote that I read, it was on my screen. My comment was the Ozzie had some input on the makeup of the team. This was your answer. To me it looks like Ozzie just manages and KW puts together the team. If you agree with what Jim said, thats exactly what I was saying, so you agree with me. So im not sure why the argument ensued.
