QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jan 22, 2012 -> 02:59 AM) Hell no. That is JoeCoolMan24. Hell, he has his damn name on his sig if you hadn't noticed.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jan 21, 2012 -> 10:02 PM) I don't care much what people's opinions of JoePa are, but when he does die, he should be remembered for a legendary career and for all the great things he did do, not the things he didn't. I, for one, hope he lives another 100 years. The man is a legend. And he's still a human being. And he still has a family that loves him and cares about him. Yeah, I'm not gonna wish death on a guy for being a coward.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 21, 2012 -> 10:36 PM) I just hope the Ozzie haters don't find a way to blame the upcoming season on him. Seriously I don't know what some people are going to do if/when the team heads south this season. Who are the Oz haters going to blame? I dunno, the fact that we're knowingly rebuilding?

So Rose, Noah, Taj, Lucas out. Sign 'Sheed.

That was beauty. Mizzou just needs to hold off KU and Baylor at home.

QUOTE (bmags @ Jan 21, 2012 -> 10:38 AM) Mizzou vs Baylor. 1pm. Just hope our 3s fall This is the game we'll miss Bowers the most.

QUOTE (Tex @ Jan 21, 2012 -> 07:40 AM) I'm confused by the I'd buy more if it were cheaper comments. Are y'all suggesting pirating is less of a crime because the prices are too high? I'd have a Mercedes G Series in my driveway if the price was cheap enough. I'd have Dish and Direct if the prices were cheaper. I'm not certain what y'all are driving at. I think their point may be that you have alternatives to Mercedes and Dish/Direct. With music, the RIAA basically controls the entire industry and sets prices.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 21, 2012 -> 11:34 AM) Hockey doesn't have that. Obviously the goalies can't really score, and plus defensemen are always farther back and don't score as many goals as forwards. As in hockey has an undisputed GOAT. I'm going to shut up now.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jan 21, 2012 -> 09:11 AM) All sports have different skill sets for different positions , big difference between what a Center does to what a PG does as in what a starting pitcher does to what a SS does...even in hockey. When I said that I meant that all 5 players can score, rebound, assist, block, and steal. My bad.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 07:56 PM) I pay for it also. I still prefer cd format even. I'd buy more if it were cheaper. Hence...deadweight loss. This.

I believe Greg is a Sox fan. I think currently he's an Ozzie fan first, easily. But he's a Sox fan.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 08:36 PM) actually, no Only sport of the big four* D'oh. Forgot Hockey...

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 05:15 PM) I'm glad Ozzie is going to speak some more. I hope he makes Jerry and the front office look so bad. I mean grown people are acting like Ozzie was welcome back one more year, the final year of his contract, etc., cause that was the company line and they say Ozzie "quit" with two games left with the Sox 29 games out of first place. I've maintained all along KW won this war. So what if Ozzie technically "quit" with 1-2 days to go, to take a much better job w/job security? Please. The 2 hated each other. Kenny won. Case closed. Speak, Ozzie. I want to hear more about this. p.s. The difference between the Ozzie lovers and haters IMO is we lovers don't give a f*** what Ozzie says publicly. The haters tend to look at all his sentences (of which there are a zillion) and study them religiously. I took Ozzie's statements as great theatre, great fun. Many of you took them and got mad. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 05:27 PM) And as an Ozzie lover I took no offense to what Peavy said. He has the right to say Ozzie quit. But I'm just saying it was obvious only 1 of the 2 would be back this season, Oz or Ken. Ken was the choice of Jerry. The semantics of leaving a few days early? Who gives a f***? It was time to take the Marlins job and let Mr. Controversy, Coop, take over and see what he could do. Greg, you now have two of the dumbest posts ever. Seriously man, this s*** cray. I hope he attacks Jerry because that might finally prompt Jerry to rip Ozzie to shreds. Jerry has remained loyal to that f*** so "Mr. Class" Ozzie will only be a piece of s*** if he goes after Jerry. And really? COOP IS MR. CONTROVERSY? NOT THE MOTHERf***ER THAT IS CURRENTLY STIRRING UP CONTROVERSY?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 11:10 AM) Round Two is about to begin OzzieGuillen Ozzie Guillen People want me to look bad but I so honest i wiil saynthe real true put u seat belt on I will kill peoples fellings no mercy i turn the page but they no let me a long then get ready going to be bad Iam out the country now but i never quit in anything yes be ready when i talk going to be fun When i get to chitown lets make one thing clear what happen last day whit the sox stay tune I feel like this is Ozzie rapping.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 10:12 AM) Since I'm almost 100% Scandinavian, anyone who has the nickname Vikings needs to change it. I'm insulted that anyone would use this nickname. When I wear black pants, people sometimes mistake my ankles for white socks. White Sox needs to be changed.

I just really hate when the RIAA tries to make itself a victim. Now, obviously musicians make 0 profit on Piracy, but it means interest in the artist which can translate to concerts/youtube hits/etc. And now, because I really hate the RIAA... http://www.cracked.com/funny-2153-riaa/ http://www.cracked.com/photoplasty_147_if-...il-as-riaa_p17/ http://www.cracked.com/blog/649/ http://www.cracked.com/article_17215_the-7...r-tantrums.html My favorite rapper is DeStorm, who is unsigned and on YouTube. If some of his past songs are any indication why he chooses to remain unsigned it's because he wouldn't be allowed to just release his music as he saw fit, the RIAA would have total and complete control over all his music. f*** I hate the RIAA.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 08:43 AM) Theo, Ben, & Bud will probably all go to dinner and force Theo to pay the whole bill as "compensation". What a joke. This is greatly annoying.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jan 20, 2012 -> 01:02 AM) Second round picks? Oh boy! Look at it this way: GM's take certain packages. Kahn loves PGs. GarPax will unload stupid/troublesome players for picks teams deem useless. Danny Ainge will take a stupid return over no return. Remember when he told Auerbach to trade himself, Bird, and McHale for what became Schrempf and crap?
