Hey Hawk, glad to see ya made the switch! Welcome dude, hope you enjoy it.

Yup. That is why we make people pick just one person, because say someone takes Rowand, but then saids they will take Maggs if he doesn't play or start. See how big of a mess that would have been?

Does anyone know a site that keeps the run support stat somewhere?

Just that he went out of his way to say "I love it here. I want to be here. I want to play here. I'm not going anywhere." He left his private meet and greet to tell us that. He walked in. Went to the stage. Said it. Then left. He was there maybe 15 seconds. There was no point. Most questions at that point were about Colon. It was just very out of the blue. I was at that session too... Did you think it was weird the way he came in, made the comments, then left? We went next door after we left that session and he was fine. I even asked what was up with the performance.. quote.. "oh that.. nothin". Nothin?? Mark, you just acted like aliens took over your body for 15 seconds, and it's nothing? He was fine at the bar after that so I just figured he was just being coy.. but I just couldn't forget about it. It was strange. At first I was under the impression that he stuck his head in a door not knowing what was going on in the room. Then when everyone saw who it was almost as if he HAD to say something so he went in and said what everyone wanted to hear.

The brought back Dwayne Wade for a 2nd work out. If they don't trade him, he is sounding like a possibility. They are also looking at some of the foriegn players

Garland got plenty of flack for that statement.

From the rumblings Anderson shouldn't be TOO bad to sign. The one that scares me is Sweeney because I haven't heard a word about us talking to him.

I'll be doing that tonight, along with a few of those Dollar hot dogs!!

Oh yeah, I remember the whole St Petersburg Sox thing all too well, and how late Midnight can actually be.

Last nights winner would have been Rowand with his 3 run HR, but no one picked him so the winner ends up being Jose Valentin Pickers were ElrockinMT and Rofacosta The interesting thing about last night was the top players all had zero points last night. Frank, Maggs, Jimenez and Lee all had goose eggs. The bench guys contributed with Daubach getting 3 points, as did Josh Paul. Crede also had two points.

OK through today and more presisely my pick of Frank Thomas today is the last pick that this post reflects. These are the people who have picked a particular player twice already and can't pick them again til next monday. Lee-SoxfaninBeverly Valentin-ElrockinMT Thomas-Texsox Crede-ArneHarris

For the first time this week Frank Thomas

Sorry dude I really didn't mean to offend you. I like to say silly things sometimes just to losen up the mood a little bit.

What was your impression of Borch? Really nice guy. He signed about 4 balls for me. I went to the hotel around 1 in the afternoon and thought maybe I'd catch him leaving for lunch or something. Sure enough, I saw him laying outside next to the pool and asked some other guys who appeared to be Knights teammates if that was him. They said to go ahead out there. I introduced myself and he was really easy to talk to. Sat there for about 30 mins and talked Sox baseball and he answered all the questions I had. So my impression of him was great. When I heard him at Soxfest he came off as extremely smart. He was well studied, a hard worker, and a quick learner.

He was in the 80's.

Is he just getting progressively worse or is he just rotting away from nonuse in the pen?

If I didn't edit myself it would be a real mess. My posts would read something like this 123@@%%^^$!!aglvlrmoPQ! I am the world's worst typist. I fixed it Josh, the Indians were swept by the NY Giants in the 1954 World Series. At least somebody noticed. You know I like reading this historical stuff. I was going to make a career change a while back and become a history teacher. Then I discovered how little interest most people take in the subject. The career change is still on hold. One of my favorite sayings in life, and I can't remember who said it, but "Those who do not learn from their history are doomed to repeat it"

Maybe Mark and Frank can buddy up and take some classes at good ol' STFU!

Yeah do you think he is regretting turning down that deal yet?

My question is if both parties surrendered at the sametime, who wins?

I really wish that they wouldn't add teams to the playoffs. The whole thing is becoming watered down. That being said, if they did it, they would have to drop the amount of regular season games or they are going to end up playing in a blizzard sometime soon.

I'll be at the game!!!!
