What's the strangest/funniest/wildest non-baseball thing at USCF
RibbieRubarb replied to knightni's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 20, 2009 -> 11:07 AM) I remember many times seeing people get high on the ramps behind the scoreboard in CF at the old ballpark. Which reminds me, you still owe me $20... -
What's the strangest/funniest/wildest non-baseball thing at USCF
RibbieRubarb replied to knightni's topic in Pale Hose Talk
My buddy and I asked two Nuns, who were sitting in our season ticket seats, to please leave and find their own seats on an opening day. We then said to each other: "I wonder if God is going to punish us for that?" We said: "Nahhh" The year was 1994. sorry guys... -
QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 17, 2009 -> 04:03 PM) Yea Bowie! And Ribbie had him even higher than I did. I am all over the first page...either I have really good taste or my top bands are everyone else's bottom bands.

QUOTE (longshot7 @ Nov 16, 2009 -> 05:51 PM) saw that art movie 2012 - funniest movie I've seen in a while. I was waiting for Danny Glover to say "I'm gettin' too old for this s***."

QUOTE (FlaSoxxJim @ Nov 16, 2009 -> 03:13 PM) You and me are two of the three Soxtalkers that had Talking Heads on their lists — I wonder who the other bloke with good taste is. Hey Ni. . . For previous list countdowns, didn't you include the names of all teh SWoxTalkers that included a particular entry, and not just the poster who scored it in the highest slot? I thinks that's what you did, and I liked that. At any rate, two of my bands have made the cut so far. yea. I knew there was good reason I liked you...

QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 16, 2009 -> 02:10 PM) Psycho Killer is a great song. Pure originals! I'm thrilled they made the list! Soxtalk = Taste!

As we saw this year, if there is extra room in the budget Kenny usually saves it for mid-season moves.

If the past shows us anything, Jerry is willing to up the budget if Kenny says we need to do it to win. We're not talking $200 million, but another 10 is possible.

I'm assuming you plan to play Overbay at 1st, with Paulie DHing?

Beckham's Deep Thoughts on playing 2nd base
RibbieRubarb replied to CaliSoxFanViaSWside's topic in Pale Hose Talk
I fail to read where he is "not that thrilled"... That seems more of your opinion and interpetation that Gordan actual thoughts. -
Didn't watch it... I missed I, II, III and IV

Mark Buehrle wins Fielding Bible Award
RibbieRubarb replied to southsider2k5's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Nov 2, 2009 -> 10:01 PM) The numbers don't lie. Mark Buehrle is just really above-average at everything he does. He's a great pitcher and an even better guy. Hell of a number #2 starter for the next couple of years too. Get a room!! lol -
Ozzie and KW have said they want the 2010 team to be younger, athletic, faster and versitile. Even in the DH role I don't see Dye or Thome, for that matter, coming back no matter how cheap.

Soxfest hotel packages to go on sale

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 22, 2009 -> 04:14 PM) I haven't been in years, since they added the extra $75 a person for a weekend stay. Stop bringing an escort and maybe you can attend again... -
Joe Buck just said that Nick Swisher is getting his "first taste of playoff baseball this year with the Yankees". Does Joe only count the games he broadcasts as official games? I'm pretty sure Nick was in the playoffs in 2006 with Oakland and last year with us...but what do I know.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Oct 9, 2009 -> 10:27 AM) On a side note, my girl Norah O'Donnell made a great point, people like Bill Clinton, Elie Wiesel, Nelson Mandela haven't won this award... and I believe they are more deserving. QUOTE (Reddy @ Oct 9, 2009 -> 10:27 AM) Mandela hasn't won? That's a f***ing travesty. Case-in-point. Nelson Mandela won in 1993 and Elie Wiesel won in 1986. If only reporters would actually do research than mouth off their opinions...

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Oct 4, 2009 -> 03:11 PM) Good point- it's always a sad day indeed. Only good news coming out of this season is it appears we have 5 solid starters going into next year. With Thome and Dye most likely gone we're going to need to put some more power into this lineup I believe, although it will be nice to get the slow guys outta there from clogging up the bases. 2010 LF Pods SS Beckham RF Quentin 1B Konerko DH ??? C AJ CF Rios 2B Ramirez 3B Viciedo Pods won't be back if he gets a ridiculous offer for 2-3 yrs. But my guess is he WILL get a 2 yr offer, which may lead us to looking at other options. I KNOW Beckham is going to play 3B next year, but to me its a joke as we could have so much offensive production from SS & 2B from him and A Ram, we'd have 180 RBIs and 35 HR's from the middle infield. That's pretty damn good. But no one thinks about that. Booooooo You can take it to the bank that Ramirez is SS and Getz is 2B. Pods will be in LF if they cannot sign Figgins. DH will come from within. Money/Trades will be spent on the bullpen.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 12:31 AM) I hope we leave Gordon at third for the next 12 years. Lexi should go play winter ball just to work on his defense. I like he and Beckham at third and ss. Can't we do better than what we got at 2B? Where will Figgins play? Figgins would probably play LF with Rios in CF and Quentin in RF
