Heads22 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Alrighty, WSC has been up for around a month now. I'm not sure if it's getting enough love, however. What do you guys think about WSC? Is there anything we here at Soxtalk could do to involve it more? And what needs work there? We would like it if WSC, Soxtalk and FutureSox stay together as a trio of sites providing all the Sox info you'd ever need. How can we work on that? As always, you guys know that you are what keep this engine turning so we value what you guys have to say. Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HighHeat45 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 I love it, the articles are much more interesting reads than on whitesox.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Bones Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Get rid of the Cubs fan. But seriously, I like it. It gives me something different to read rather than the same old repetitive mainstream stuff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurcieOne Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 I think they're picking up right where Soxnet left off... I mean, I just couldnt be happier with the product they're putting up. I think that WSC, FUTURESOX, and SOXTALK is the new Soxnet, just in a different way. kudos guys, kudos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DBAHO Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 I really enjoy readin the previews to each series, and the Minny article a few days ago was a real good read I thought. I'm not sure if it's gettin promoted enough though, it's a quality site that deserves more readers because so far they've put out a real good product to read.

soxfan420 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 You could put a whos hot and whos not section up on future sox? do it weekly or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YASNY Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 WSC is great site. It's becoming habit for me to check it out daily. I like the series previews very much. Those of you that don't check it out regularly are missing some good Sox coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Find a way to hire Jay Mariotti In all seriousness, both FS and WSC look great. The content is spectacular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SnB Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Everyone, including me, seems to quietly check out the site every day, I enjoy it very much and we don't say thanks enough. So THANKS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDylan Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Thanks for all the positive comments. I've been kicking around a few ideas, so I might as well get some thought on them now. The ideas are: Submit your own article - A special section added to the main page highlighting articles that other viewers of the site send in themseves. SoxTalk Quote - Area on the main page highlighting quotes from people on this board. Comiskey Park Improvements - Knock off WSI and The Daily Southtown...gathering people's thoughts on how to improve Comiskey Park. Some ideas serious, others not. Drawings, pictures accepted. Fan of the Week or Month - Submissions from people on why they are the fan of the week. Pictures a must. Those are just some ideas I've been tossing around. Some are more practical than others. Regardless, if you have any ideas, or skills you can add to the site, let me know and I'll work to get them in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SnB Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 oh, one more thing, I loved the "where have you gone?" thing on mike caruso, keep that going, it was a good read. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greasywheels121 Posted May 3, 2004 Share Posted May 3, 2004 Soxnbears basically said it for me; however, I have been keeping up with the site daily and I'm really enjoying. We really appreciate what you're doing. It's like the rebirth of Soxnet; good stuff! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobDylan Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 oh, one more thing, I loved the "where have you gone?" thing on mike caruso, keep that going, it was a good read. Yea, I was kicking some players around. Most of our 2000 team is a mystery, but it's tough to find info on these players. I think I'll feature that 2000 team throughout the year, and then smack it together into a main feature in the off-season. I mean, take a look at this list of mystery players: Sirtotka Barcello Howry Baldwin Parque Simas Perry ...Those are just the guys I can think of off the top of my head. There are more, and the players I mentioned above were pretty pivotal to that division championship. Now they are nowhere to be heard of. However, was Perry part of the team in 2000? Or did he join later? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 Ya, Milkman was an integral part of the 2000 team if I recall. I know Barcelo was pitching pretty good two winter balls ago (it may of even been this winter ball) and Baldwin is in the Twins organization or something like that. Couldn't tell ya where Simas is (dodgers had him at a point last year), but I thought Howry was with the Tribe or something like that. And Perry has been with the Rangers ever since. Thats off the top of my head. I really love that feature though. Caruso takes me back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perry came in late May IIRC and Graf had come in April Perry had an immediate impact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MurcieOne Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 what about Bobby Howry, i know he was here as recent as 2002... but where is that guy now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chisoxfn Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 what about Bobby Howry, i know he was here as recent as 2002... but where is that guy now? I thought he went to the Indians organization and I'm not sure if he's still their. After that he may of went to the Dodgers, but not positive on that.

Gene Honda Civic Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 what about Bobby Howry, i know he was here as recent as 2002... but where is that guy now? He was in Boston last year -- Up and down between Pawtucket and Beantown. I don't know where he is now-- He's not with Pawtucket, I just checked.

Gene Honda Civic Posted May 4, 2004 Share Posted May 4, 2004 I found Tanyon Sturtze, of the I'm-a-major-league-starter-trade-me-if-I'm-not-in-the-starting-rotation-Sturtze's, with a 3-0 record and a 2.70 ERA in the starting rotation for the Las Vegas 51's.
