QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 05:43 PM) Did I strike a nerve? Do you have to resort to name calling? It is a fact that homosexual behavior is not the norm, it is a fact that it has been frowned upon by societies around the world, and it is a fact that religions consider it a sin. You are the one who is being intolerant. I didn't start this conversation. I responded to another person's post in a civil manner. While that person disagrees with me, that person responded in a civil manner. No names were called, except by you. I'm not pushing an agenda here. But apparenty no one who disagrees with your agenda should be allowed to post here if you had your way. :puke

QUOTE(South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 11, 2005 -> 03:26 PM) Homosexual activity is abnormal. That is a fact. In addition to being abnormal, most societies and civilizations in the history of the world consider(ed) homosexuality to be undesirable. That is a fact. Most major religions in the world consider homosexual activity immoral. Because of all the facts stated above, many people believe that homosexual behavior is "wrong." You throwing around the word "fact" like some sort of right wing nut job standing on the pulpit makes me :puke Abnormal? That's your opinion. Major religions? Name three. Why don't you push this agenda on some GOP board instead of here. This kind of intolerance and the need to toss around bogus "facts" and labels like "abnormal" makes me double :puke :puke

I've always liked Morrissey. Until now.

Maybe this is why Shingo was released?

Morrisey's article on an offhanded remark made by Ozzie. I emailed him and said I think he should be a little more old school and let remarks like this slide. Morrissey column

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 09:25 PM) I actually love her blog. She has lego pictures of baseball situations that are freakin hilarious. I agree. I'm a subversive troll on her website who writes in their Twins "chick" speak about how disappointing and pointless this season is. It's quite fun, you should try it. She's witty but she's blown the b**** sox thing out of proportion. It's a rivalry and girls, er, ladies, have a hard time grasping smack talk. It's "mean." whatever. enjoy the ice fishing this winter, Batgirl. And bring your hubby along for company. I'm going to be holed-up watching the WS replay over and over again weeping tears of joy to be the first in my family since my great granfather to witness a Sox championship.

I feel just like I did in '83 when we had such awesome pitching. That was a great year and this is too. I still feel that team should've won it all and I feel that this team has everything it takes to win it all. No team is without weaknesses, but when your strengths are pitching and guts (aka, an uncanny ability to win tight games), then you've got a big edge. Stef, I envy you. Mmm...fenway franks. Have a blast.

QUOTE(Balance @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 01:08 PM) mlb.com had that last out right up against the wall in center. Was it really that deep? he caught it at the track and ran into the wall. Aaron recorded the first out of the series and the last with great catches!

suhhhhhh-weeeeet!!!

wow, we just caught a break from this crew? The tide is changing!! Juan, please come back from wherever you're hiding.

which is more scary back to back? Sheffield/A-Rod Ortiz/Manny

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:17 PM) Our team BA for the month of August is now .230. I cant wait until we stop facing everyones number 1 pitcher. better now than in September, though. Glad we're getting it out of the way...

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 12:12 PM) the freakin pitch speed in the 8th inning is sponsored. Come on!! I was thinking the same thing!

damn I love the Sox pitching

Oh for the double play...

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:55 AM) God damn, now I know why I hate game threads. This is a f***ing crybaby fest in here. OH WE SUCK, BENCH EVERYONE!!!! Jesus Christ people do you enjoy this at all? God if I freaked out this bad over every stinking pitch, I would never watch any baseball... Go do something that makes you HAPPY. take an Ambien. In fact, take the whole bottle.

I honestly have no idea what Uribe is doing at the plate. He's swinging at outside breaking balls that are 1-2 feet off the plate!

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 11:38 AM) what slide??? bad choice of words on my part -- I'm referring to the slump, not a slide in the standings, obviously.

I like Greg Walker, but I haven't seen a different approach from the Sox hitters since this slide began. Long swings and pop ups. I hold him partly to blame.

I never thought it was possible, but Uribe looks worse than Olivo did when he first came up and tried to hit the curve ball. My god...this is really, really bad.

Juan, that ball bounced before it hit the catcher's glove. You piece of s***. I thought smart ball meant that if the lead off batter got on you tried to move him into scoring position?

Let's go Freddy. By the way, did you see the quote from an unamed Sox player calling A-Rod's play on Monday night "bush"? I'm so glad that plunked that tool.

Bring me Leo

QUOTE(ceffa2000 @ Aug 9, 2005 -> 09:40 PM) SMOKE EM!!!!!!!!! Come on Freddie: Day Away Game? Youre invincible. with the powerful line up the Sox have been running out there, Freddy can relax and enjoy a day in the Bronx. Ho hum. I love it when the Sox pitchers get on a roll. Duque, Count, now Freddy's turn...
