Coach Skiles initially went with the traveling but now is gonna go with the dude Iam so baked.Or possibley Dude Iam so baked while traveling home to look for work.

Larry Brown?Who is it gonna be?

This has to be joke.Why on christmas eve,there must have been a blow-up or something with Pax.This doesnt make sense even though they have been awful this is unexpected if true.

At work.Why cant hospitals close on Christmas?Let baby Jesus heal the sick today he is fully capable.

Iam have spent the last hour trying to put an image from photobucket for my avatar and it just wont f'ing work.It fits the requirments and size but I just cant make it work.What the hell?

I know its just me being uneducated about global warming but after walking to my car with tears running down my eyes from the freezing wind this AM I just have to think people exagerate slightly about how critical we are at this stage in the history of earth.

You can say all you want about Schueler but Iam still glad KW is here and not him.

I enjoy business savvy moves as much as the next guy,but it is pretty discouraging watching the other teams in our division aquire impact players to teams that were better than the sox last year.And we are adding nothing but players with moderate potential that few other teams wanted,not to mention losing solid starting pitching.I always like to assume that KW has this "masterplan" and when he misses out on someone I just think he has another idea,I hope this signing is not the other idea.This is two offseasons in a row now that KW has dissappointed.

Iam really hoping that i will enjoy the Mars volta's new album that comes out next month.They are a band that always has the potential to make one of my all time favorite albums or something that I cant even stand listening to more than a few times through.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Dec 9, 2007 -> 02:06 PM) We have always been told that our parties are a great way to say "thanks" to our bosses, not vice-versa. That is a travesty.Something like that would let me know that I will not be a part of that company for too long.That is really sad,seriously.

I would say it is more likely now than it was 2 weeks,but it is by no means a shoe in.I really dont think KW loves ARow as much as everyone thinks.Maybe as a person and he respects the way he plays the game.But as far as his ability I dont think he believes in it for the next 4 to five years.

Captain Morgan.Aaaaaarrrgh!Oh ya and Blue Moon as far as beer is good too.

I have been asking for airline gift certificates the past couple years cause you can never have too much of them.But Iam honestly hoping KW can come through with some kind of move to make my winter a bit more hopeful.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 8, 2007 -> 12:03 AM) f***....got back from the doctors after having severing swelling in my knee the last two days (hurt myself snowboarding) and it turns out I tore something in my knee. They have to wait for the swelling to go down to tell if I'll need surgery. The good news is I seem to be able to put pressure on it and most of my limping is due to the swelling (or so I hope). Just noticed this post Rex I mean Jase.Oh how ironic.

Had the company Christmas party last night.Oh how people can make asses of themselves.It was too funny,and they should already know going into it that if you do or say something stupid it will stick with you for a long time.Why do people continue to make that mistake every year?

QUOTE(thedoctor @ Dec 2, 2007 -> 02:28 PM) i know there was a lot of skepticism here regarding zook's ability to lead the program. if they end up in the rose bowl this year, i'd have to think that some of the "zook can't coach" stigma would be put further to rest. Well thats what Iam worried about.Now that Zook has proven he can coach along with being a notoriously good recruiter he will go elsewhere ala Bill Self.Everytime a coach has good success at Illinois he will eventually leave to a bigger name school no matter what the sport.Illinois is a step stool to bigger and better things,I hate to say.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 2, 2007 -> 12:59 PM) Jeff, I hope the Illinis play USC so I can see the Illini get the absolute s*** kicked out of them. The Big 10 was so bad this year, its a joke that they'll have 2 BCS teams (Illinois is not deserving of a BCS bid). I am also completely against OSU in the National Championship game but I will at least admit with 1 win and the fact that they were top dogs most of the season that I really can't say that Virginia Tech deserves to be in the game ahead of them. I think USC and LSU are better teams but both have 2 losses to OSU's 1. Bottom line, OSU should be in there. I don't think they are that good but they won the games and they now get the reward of getting a national tv beatdown. Dude this is not the powerhouse USC of all the yesteryears,the big ten was down but so are all of the other conferences with the exception of the SEC.If Stanford can beat USC along with Jim Harbaaaaaw, Illini has a pretty damn good chance with the playmakers they have(Benn,Mendenhall both to be first rounders eventually).

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 2, 2007 -> 12:45 PM) Those are the two best teams in the country right now (OU would be the 3rd best). I would not want to play USC right now, I really think they'd beat anyone they'd play. USC might sleep on my Illini brethren.

105.9 in Chicago now only plays lite music , it sux.Where is all the talk radio shows going to go now?There was some pretty entertaining personalities on that station like Opie and Anthony, and Steve Dahl.

Iam really feelin Serj Tankjian new album.It is definetly softer than SOA DOWN past albums but I never really liked that other guys screechy voice in their songs.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Oct 21, 2007 -> 04:42 PM) This thread is losing steam lately. What's new and interesting?? I was thinking the same thing.I pretty much exclusively come to sox talk for this thread and it has lust its luster the past couple months.

QUOTE(bmags @ Oct 7, 2007 -> 07:55 PM) breathing noisily doesn't have much to do with flow. You have seriously gotten way to critical, its funny.Do you even enjoy music anymore?

I have no problem with the signing for the present,but the sox definetly have to start looking for an AJ replacement now and not just lay back thinking we got a good AJ for the next few.I was dissapointed with his approach at the plate this year,it was swing for the fences in every situation.
