NorthSideSox72 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 SHIPPS was in a desperate search to find his first post on SoxTalk. Turns out he was letting us know the % of dust that is human skin. Found mine - and I opened my SoxTalk career by starting a new thread. Apparently, I really liked smilies back then: QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 15, 2005 -> 12:02 AM) OK, that's it. This is the time to make my first post on this site. I've seen enough. Would people please get past the panic thing here? In case no one noticed, this supposedly collapsing ballcub is 8-5 in September. We're also 32 games over .500 I believe. We have a 5 game lead on first place with 2 weeks to play. We play teams we dominate during that period. Why are we in panic mode? Yeah, the defense has been untimely lately. And Garland and Buerhle have had off games. But does anyone actually think we were grand imposters of picthing and defense for 130 games, only to show our true colors now? Give me a break. One other thing. In case no one noticed, the slipping lead is mostly due to Cleveland's stellar play, not our downfall. That team was well under .500 for a while, and hovering around it until fairly recently. Cleveland will not keep playing .800 ball. They are good, but not that good. So yeah, we should be ready to battle. We should know we'll have to play near the top of our game in the post-season. But who thinks that this team and this manager won't do that? We'll battle. And I think we'll show some people what we can do. :finger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FlaSoxxJim Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 My actual first post on what would become SoxTalk doesn't exist anymore. I think the few people that date back to the SoxNet days lost all of their earliest history with the first Soxtalk migration. I do remember that my first post on the mlb Sox board was quite similar to NSS's first post here, telling people not to panic during an extended team slump. Of course that was in 2001 and we did suck a$$ right out of the gate that year, so, that shows what I know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigSqwert Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 f*** you Ozuna! You should retire from the game mid-game. This was for the game on 06/08/05 when Ozuna made an error and had 2 caught stealing. LINK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 I was like 15 and I swore a lot because you couldn't swear on the MLB boards. So I basically just said "hey guys, f*** YOU, that's neat, well, see ya" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve9347 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) My first non-poll post, after The All-City Team was posted in 2005. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 11:07 AM) Wow, that guy is nuts to say Patterson is better than Rowand right now. The only thing Patterson is better at currently is hitting homeruns. He has fewer RBIs, lower batting average, and a thousand more strikeouts. Nice work, tribune. Edited July 6, 2009 by Steve9347 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 In a Sox-Cubs comparison thread: I don't know how anyone here can take Sosa over Maggs, yes we all know sosa will hit more homeruns, because maggs doesnt take steroids, but Maggs always has a better average, less strikeouts, better defense, better baserunning, and this year he had more rbi's which i think is from now on going to be a trend. DEFINETLY MAGGS OVER SOSA!!!!!! Heh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Mar 28, 2003 -> 11:44 AM) I just got reading your latest write up, and a line jumped out at me about Kelly Wunsch being the one who actually organized the almost boycott of drug tests. Where did you hear this from? I haven't seen anything about who was the point man on this, let alone anyone else who was involved. If you have any more info I would love to see it. Thanks SS2k3 Mine was in response to an article from Soxnet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dasox24 Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 (edited) I remember 1st posting in a minor league thread, but when I searched the FutureSox forum last night (after seeing Shipps' post in the Catch-All thread) to find my 1st post, it only went back to '04. But, I just realized we didn't have the FutureSox forum yet when I joined, so I searched Palehose and sure enough, found my 1st post... Yea, LaMura pitched for Clemson last year. ^^ In response to a question about BJ LaMura, former minor league pitcher. Not terribly fascinating. It's interesting to look how post style changes over time, though, as I just looked through a bunch of old postings of mine from 5-6 years ago.

Soxbadger Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 Im not sure how to find it, but my first post was about trading Paul Konerko for pitching and signing David Ortiz as a FA from the Twins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shipps Posted July 6, 2009 Share Posted July 6, 2009 For everyone that wants to find their first post this is a decent way of finding it. QUOTE (kev211 @ Jul 6, 2009 -> 03:33 AM) I don't know if that is it or not? But here's how you can do it shipps. Go to one of the forums and on the bottom right corner and where it says "Topics: All" change it to "Topics: I replied" then change "From: 30 days" to "Show All." Go to the last page in that forum and your first post should be in one of the topics though your going to have to play around to find what forum its in Palehose, SLaM etc.. I'd look for a Welcome to soxtalk response or something, but I don't think there is any way to know for certain its the first post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozzie showed lots of balls to put Shingo in there, trying to instill some confidence in his closer from last year. But what if it had backfired.....I bet this forum would have "asploded" Maybe we better start accepting the idea that Ozzie may know more about baseball than all of us?
