  1. QUOTE (rangercal @ Dec 10, 2008 -> 02:40 PM) re-list it. I'll buy 1 I second that!
  2. Well I thought I'd shoot an e-mail to the Dash to kind of notify them about their logo. I used the e-mail listed on the contact page and got an undeliverable back. I'm guessing they probably haven't the slightest clue about this growing internet buzz. Oh well, nothing left to do except embrace the purple phallace with comptetitive vigor.
  3. QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Dec 8, 2008 -> 05:10 PM) Someone solve this equation Jose Valentin + Winston-Salem Purple Phallus= Who wants a mustache ride?
  4. Can his mustache alone make the hall of fame?
  5. I've always been a fan of boxing moreso than MMA. MMA just seems too brutal to enjoy in my case. With that said however, it is impossible to deny its place in the sporting world. It has effectively eclipsed boxing as the ring event of choice. What can the WBA do? Roll out an over the hill De La Hoya once again, and promote the crap out of it. How long has it been since we've seen a new icon break on to the boxing scene? Even Floyd Mayweather lacks the name recognition of the De La Hoyas and Trinidads of the world (much less the Tysons, Fraziers, and Alis). Boxing is in a coma. I miss Butterbean.
  6. I'd be up for offering him a 1 year, although he will probably make some decent change somewhere else. Any chance we take a shot at Randy Johnson for the 5th starter spot? I hear a lot of talk about Colon and Garcia on this board and personally it gets me a little shakey.
  7. 1. Fire Greg Walker. I've had it with our streaky hitting veterans. Just because we have a veteran ball club that has found success in the past doing it their way (Konerko, Thome, Cabrera, Swisher, etc.), doesn't mean that they shouldn't be open to teaching and making necessary adjustments. Every season, despite our sometimes goudy and impressive offensive numbers, I can't help but think how much more we are capable of. Hell, if 2 guys in the starting 9 could actually lay down a bunt, we might have scored well over 20 more runs this season. 2. Figgins at 3B, make it happen. Pretty self explanatory. Crede is probably out and Fields was a dissapoinment this past season. 3. JJ Hardy at SS, Cabrera out. 4. Re-assess pitching staff. Find a middle of the road 5th starter and a good number 2-3 guy. Vasquez out. 5. Griffey out. Find a CF or platoon Swisher/Anderson (god forbid).
  8. QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 1, 2008 -> 11:06 PM) This might be a dumb question by why were they chanting Paulie when Thome homered? Cause he was up next and might go back to back? Yep Yep. It was after he crossed homeplate. My favorite moment by far was the diving catch for the win. Everyone in my section jumped off the groud with a collective gasp then cheer. I've never seen the look of relief on so many faces in my life. Relief not from making the catch, but from making the playoffs after so many mixed emotions during the season. It was the first time in a long time we could all enjoy the win without leering apprehension. Also the 30 seconds of Journey after the game gave me chills remembering '05. Too bad it was cut short by Thome's ode to the fans.
  9. I'll be there, Section 529! TAKE IT TO THESE FOOLS!
  10. I always thought it was R-O-W-D-Y (pronounced Y-EYYYYYYY) Maybe I am wrong.
  11. QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 14, 2008 -> 01:25 PM) Wow, I never realized so many people are tired of Hawk and are fans of DJ. Seriously. DJ provides some of the most bland coverage I have ever listened to. He was a very average commentator and the fact he has made it this long in Chicago really amazes me. Not a bad guy... but just doesn't bring anything useful to the broadcast aside from his insight on playing Japan.
  12. This just... sucks. Time for Jr. to step it up. Hopefully we can ride our horses to the playoffs... our mostly ageing, very slow, horses... I still like our chances stacked up against the Twins though. Whether we do anything in the playoffs though is a different story.
  13. Always sad to see a Sox fan and Chicagoan go, especially so young. Bernie was the epitome of cool. We'll miss you Mac!
  14. Ozzie's beef was justified. MLB is terrible with damage control. However, this could have turned out a lot worse.
  15. I really can't wait for some CSN coverage on this deadline stuff. WSCR and MJH expert "insight" is really hurting my head.
  16. QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 28, 2008 -> 04:23 PM) I like it when people in management can be brutally honest Well we certainly have no shortage of that here on the south side.
