Agreed Mark. Bottom line, those fans up there donot support the team to the level needed to keep them. Voting down the new stadium I guess will be the last...
Paul Konerko and Mark Buehrle were among the players there last year but I have no idea who is going to show up this year. The Sox booth will be open from...
Anyone going to the game today? I am and the fireworks during and after the game should be awesome too. Don't forget that it is Kids Week and there is a lot...
The Playesr Association meets on Monday to set a strike date. Anybody that doubted there would be another damaging work stoppage, prepare yourselves. Get out...
You will be missed. A great ambassador for the sport. I'm just bummed that he didn't get the chance to see Shoeless Joe Jackson inducted into the Hall as he...
Well I guess that is no surprise with the strike date. I am sure they will select a date in September as the players want to maximize the number of paychecks...
In my book Teddy is right up there with Joe and Babe as one of the greatest players to ever play the game. His all-time numbers suffered as he was in the...
So Mark, tell us how you really feel. Don't hold back this time. I still have no doubt that if they beging playing better ball they will be able to catch the...
Fenway may be hitter friendly to righties, but not so much to lefties. To hit a left handed homer in that park takes a real poke unless one hits it right down...

Dave I agree with you, we can catch te twins if we gewt our act together, as for the strike date I was reading in Baseball Weekly some of the players are...
Mike, I hope and pray you are right. Unfortunately, COMMON SENSE has had very little to do with previous negotiations. Concessions? You want concessions?...
Dave you're right the union are jerks, but let's face it the owners aren't a whole lot better. "Commisioner" Selig and his ilk have been juggling numbers for...
Mike, you suggest "small-market" get out iof they can't cut it, but if you remember, the players would not let them contract. Kinda of like a failing company...
Dave, you misunderstood, I was talking if some of the so-called "small-market" owners couldn't take it they shuld SELL! I am firmly against contraction,...
Being a free marketeer, I have nothing against contraction. I'm sure many, many years ago, there were dozens of buggy whip manufacturers. And now the need is...
The players did not set a strike date at their meeting so all of us lose the bet. This does not mean they won't set one, but I guess the timing wasn't right...
Last I heard they did not decide on anything, they didn't take the vote...hey everyone has an opinion and mine is still against contraction! dave_mansfield...
I'm not necessarily for or against contraction. I'm for there being the right number of teams dependant on demand for the product. To assume that baseball has...
Well I'm still not a big fan of the idea of contraction...BUT it might just wake up both sides if some teams were contracted. I guess I just don't like how...
Well good job shout outs to both Paul and Mark in yesterday's all- star game especially Paulie who would have won MVP had Sasucki not blown it in the next...
I agree Paulie should've been the MVP(hey I'm biased too...LOL) I won't get into samME's antics,let's just say Paulie was the better Chicago rep. Spike O'Dell...
Good points Mark. I agree Paulie would have one the MVP had the American League not blown its short-lived loss, but they did. As far as fixing things beforethe...
Can we please, please, please fire somebody!? Anybody!? Can't someone do something to fire up this dead, sleepy, underachieving team!? This team kind of...
One of my dreams was always to play first base for the Chicago White Sox. I'm up for the trade, and they can pay me the Major League minimum. Agreed they need...
First you're never going to get anyone to take Franks contract,second I've been screaming or them to fire Nardi all season,no one listens, and the way manuel...
This is getting pretty ugly. We've now lost 3 out of 4 to lowly Detroit. Williams now has to do something. I don't even know where to begin, as I'm not sure...
the Sox came back from a deficit going into the 8th inning to win a game. I'm not going to take this as a turnaround of any kind just yet, but it was a badly...
I've given up hoping for the big turnaround, I'll settle for a string of wins! dave_mansfield <no_reply@yahoogroups.com> wrote: the Sox came back from a...
