QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 29, 2005 -> 09:20 AM) im not sure we couldnt at least get the deal considered again if we wanted to take his whole contract. Desperate times call for desperate measures. KW and JR have to want the best team available for the playoffs. Come on JR, Win or Die Trying.

Did he have elbow or shoulder surgery with the cubs? Either way, he hasnt been close to the same as he was before his surgery since it was performed. I remember when the White Sox went to Atlanta, I think in 01, They lost I believe 3-2 to Greg maddux. Remlinger came in for the 7th, and just flat out dominated everyone who stepped in the box.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 29, 2005 -> 09:01 AM) If you look at my total posts, I have not even come close to 1 billion posts. I don't see how it is possible that I have posted that even close to 50 billion times along with the other sane individual. by the way, Griffey isnt coming to Chicago! /insert rimshot

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Aug 29, 2005 -> 08:17 AM) Well Thomas Jones is Thomas Jones, he's not in the top half of starting RB's in the league, hence why they drafted Benson. And yeah he could be good enough to be the 2nd coming of Tomlinson, no-one's seen him in a NFL game yet so it's a bit early to be maing judgements, but Tomlinson was the #5 pick, Benson #4. With Ron Turner going with a power running game, Benson will probably be the starter by mid - season I'd think. Jones is quite injury prone, so that can't be ruled out either. If Thomas stays healthy(which is a big IF for any running back, and a little moreso for Jones) I predict a big year from him. He almost made 1000 last year and he missed alot of time.

You guys are crazy if you think that Benson is just going to push Thomas Jones to the backburner. I think Jones is going to be getting 80 percent of the snaps for the first half of the year, and Benson will be eased into getting 40 percent of the snaps towards the end of the year. Benson clearly hurt his value to the team by missing so much time, and unless he is the second coming of Tomlinson(doubtful), I see no reason to expect so much from him so soon. To all of you fantasy footballers who drafted Jones as a serviceable RB, I wouldnt be hasty to dump him right now. I actually think he molded himself very well to the offense. Not to mention that he is fast and strong, and as quick as a waterbug. It will be nice to spell Jones with a powerback like Benson, but I think it will be a little while.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 05:51 PM) How much clearer can he be? Some of you are living in some serious denial, he's not coming get over it! QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 28, 2005 -> 07:22 PM) kill me now, God. I cant wait until its over. Then I can stop listening to you two whine about everyone talking about it. Seriously, if you dont want to think that its possible, than stay away from the thread. You have made your point, you both dont believe its happening, I heard it the 1st 50 billion times.

I have read Kodee Kennings stories many times. But I thought it was more of a deliberate hoax, i never thought any of the stories were actually written by a little girl whose father was in Iraq. Its a shame that everyone was duped, and apologies were necessary.

Im going to Soldier Field to see the Rolling Stones when they are coming into town. ** **tentatively, if my Dad happens to catch on with a girlfriend by that time, my ticket is forfeited. I understand though.

Dont forget about the Fry Guys! And who is the Duck girl, I cant remember her either

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 04:12 PM) Felix is going to run through this line up of ours ANyone else share this fear? :banghead this thought shouldnt be typed

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 04:08 PM) Wow! Talk about overexaggerating. If you really would be upset if the Sox traded Matt Smith for Nomar, is that a personal attack? Im not sure you should be pretend-hitting me with a chair. I live vicariously through smileys. it wasnt so much an overexageration as it was a point. I dont really think Nomar's positives outweigh his negatives anymore. Of course, anyone can have a comeback in their career. i just dont think Nomar is worth much at this point, and the Cubs should have to live with his contract.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 03:22 PM) I usually hate Curt, but this time is different. I applaud him for these comments. Can i ask why?

QUOTE(sayitaintso @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) What if the one player was timo? timo may catch alot of s*** on this board, but Timo has played more games in the past 2 years than Nomar has. I would be pissed if the Sox traded Matt Smith for nomar, much less Timo Perez

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 03:23 PM) Oh, I don't know. Because we'd be able to offer a very solid package, and there are no ill effects from a trade due to the teams only playing 6 games against each other during interleague play. Not like it's KC or Minnesota where they are trading us a guy that is not only hurting themselves by helping an opponent, but also by helping that opponent that is playing them 19 times during the year. You say that like the teams would never make a trade. I don't see Nomar coming here...way too much of a risk, and there is just no need for him with his pricetag being as high as it inevitably is. I don't want him at all. The Cubs would be lucky to get a bucket of balls for Nomar at this point. he is the biggest health questionmark in the league right now. Unless Nomar has another .330 year next year with 30+ homeruns and 100+ RBI, I really dont see him signing any huge contracts anymore. If the White Sox attempted to acquire Nomar for one player, I would be pissed. If the White Sox offered a package for Nomar, I would be furious.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 02:53 PM) Shouldn't Timo play Enis? I dont think Jeb grasps the relationships between the White Sox players like we do. he just put a face in there that was recognizable.

Boy I can tell where this discussion is going now....

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 02:32 PM) And you know this how? because underneath the article, it says "Posted by jeb". her little group of "Bat-lings" get to post things if she deems it funny enough.

Did you get butt implants? this feels so firm....

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 11:19 AM) no reply. How can he possibly reply? he has to know that his article and poll are absolutely ludicrous and baseless. He listed former flame-throwers and Duaner Sanchez, and tried to tell us that these are the best of the best.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 26, 2005 -> 10:55 AM) the comparison of the headshot had me laugh outloud She sure avoids talking about games when the Twins lose.

That was one hell of an effort from the starting staff these past 3 games. I love our pitching!

QUOTE(Steff @ Aug 25, 2005 -> 02:53 PM) He can go 40 easy. He pitch in the high 30's a week or so ago. K'd him. i agree, Didnt he go 3 innings in that extra inning fiasco against the Twins last week?

Jenks' hook is f***ing awesome

We need to give Geoff Blum a huge hand. That guy has caught a ton of s*** for not being Ken Griffey Jr at the deadline, and he has been nothing short of solid for his short stay with the Sox. His defense has been superb, and now his bat is starting to come around.

I wish I could explain what happened, but i am listening to the game. rooney and farmer are not happy, they said Michael Ryan hit a ball in foul territory off Konerko, and it was called fair
