Guest Posted July 7, 2007 Share Posted July 7, 2007 QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jul 5, 2007 -> 05:01 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Bugs & Cranks, which is a very popular baseball blog, is doing a run down of the best 8 baseball communities on the web and our very own Soxtalk.com was today's featured site (so in their eyes, we are amongst the top 8). I wanted to say that I'm very proud to see this site get this type of pub/cred and remind all of the members here that it is each and every one of you that helps make this place really special. Sure the Sox are playing like piss, but we still have some of the best baseball and non baseball discussion on the entire web and I hope to continue to see the discussion and member base as well as the site grow. Check out the write-up, its pretty cool (well maybe I find it cool considering it wasn't that long ago that I was in high school working with Scalise with SoxNet when we launched this place to be the official message board). http://bugsandcranks.com/the-clubhouse/pal...ise-soxtalkcom/ it sure beats the stuffing out of the flyingsock.

I love how back in 2002, Jason started a thread titled "I want Contreras." Well, my friend, you definitely got him, just a few years later...

Yet, you have over 4,000. What am I missing here? thanks guys and i remember i posted something earlier this month asked where i have been. thing is as a community, we are still rebuilding down here. i live in LA and the hurricane rita of a few yrs ago nearly destroyed us.... working 6 days a week to at the business side of things, and we are about to start hurricanes season again. that is my soap opera.... but every free time i have, i still come to my sites here, sox, hawks and bull talk site. my last major time here was when i got my lunch so what handed to me by rock raines with the vaz and chris young trade, which i never liked. but things happen and i couldn't come back to retort. what i learn is life is good, when you wake up and your family health is there...... everything else comes a distant second. even in my old age i learn new things.

LDF Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 the thing with me, it was good banter. i enjoys those. it improves my skills in typing, spellin (which i am lousy at) and some of these banter were funny in content.... i never took anyone serious. i respect everyone's opinion, i may not agree with them. but it helps or at that time helped build a site with lively conversation.

max power Posted July 9, 2007 Share Posted July 9, 2007 I am really surprised, honestly. I wouldn't put this site anywhere near the top. The posters here are great but the server is slow and there is no search function. I find it amazing that it would be in the top half for those reasons alone. I really do love this site, though, don't get me wrong. I feel like an ass even saying that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
