Yes, but which one of those novels did Kerouac have a in-grown toe nail while writing chapters 4, 5 and 13?

I told you, THE YANKEES WILL NEVER WIN ANOTHER WORLD SERIES UNTIL THEY GET RID OF A-ROD. I'm not fuckin' around, it's the truth. You look at his numbers and it makes you drool, but once you've gone through a couple seasons with him on your team you start to realize that he's not a gamer. I'd take Jeter over A-rod in nano second. The mother of Yankee star Alex Rodriguez is defending her son's poor playoff performance, saying the slugger was secretly grieving over the death of his uncle. -- New York Daily News

He'd still be managing the M's right now if the front office weren't a bunch of fuckin schmucks. What other team would let go Randy Johnson, Ken Griffey, Alex Rodriguez, Freddy Garcia, and Lou Pinella all within a 5 year period. We could have been a dynasty had they pulled the trigger on a few moves at the deadline instead of moving franchise player after franchise player. They got a big town revenue stream and a small town mentality. Grrrr Go Sox...whatever

You're probably right....I still would never vote for him though.

OK, ok, I been dissing on the White Sox up until now but I guess I gots to shut my hole and cheer for em now. 80-something years is a long time - And that four complete games in a row thing was pretty impressive (Even if the Angels were the weakest team to make the playoffs imo). Besides, who really cares about the Astros other than Hustonites anyway?

BLASPHEMY!!!

I'd just like to hijack this thread "briefly" to talk about Carrot Top.

I think his wife thought the board was turning him into a liberal and banned him from visiting here. ← Isn't his wife liberal? ← I thought his wife was a Christian conservative?

Why not sign Griffey and Buhner and complete the transformation?

I'd take Jeter over A-rod in nano second. Also, I heard the Mariners are going to go after Matsui in the off season. With his performance in the playoffs I'd suspect our chances of landing him just got better. The Yankees might not want him back.

And he hits into double plays in the ninth inning of deciding games with no body out and down two runs. LOSER

Ahhh, so you missed the good ol' Rizzo days. And you arrived right when the city government was dropping bombs on inner city row homes, burning down entire neighborhoods, and shooting people who were trying to escape. Ahhh, the sweet SWEET memories I have of Philadelphia. The Phillies won it all in 1980 but we were so poor they turned off our electricity the night they won it all. What a beautiful thing to have happen to a 10 year old baseball fanatic. It's a nice place to visit (my mom still lives there), but I will never EVER live there again. To much racism, pollution, corruption and poverty. I'm raising my son where the air is clean, the schools are good and the people are nice to one another, thank you very much.

Starting to get into the Fluxus movement and I heard this Box is quite good. Besides, I never disliked Yoko's screaming - kinda like a more frenetic and exotic Abbey Lincoln. Wanna trade?

Anybody have one they want to trade?

Ahhh, to be a teenager in the 50's when the Dodgers, Giants and Yankees all played in NY. The jazz was swingin', the beats were-a-writin', and everyone got under their desk when the alarm went off. NOW THAT'S AMERICAN!!!

Wow you're old.

Actually, the White Sox were in the World Series in 1959. they haven't WON since 1917.

Spoken like someone who has never seen the White Sox play. The Sox don't suffer from bad play, they simply suffer from the worst ownership on the planet. The year of the strike, we were the best team in baseball, and Reinsdorf was practically begging for a strike. Then we see the fire sale that wipes us out when we're only 3 games out. Then this year, we're standing on top of all of baseball, and Williams and Reinsdorf refuse to look for any big bats whatsoever. I would assume that a 14-2 blow-out would demand a little respect, and for any other team in the majors, it would. But for the Sox, even if we win the whole thing, everyone will still blow it off. ← This may be true, but for whatever reason the White Sox haven't seen the World Series in almost 50 years. The Red Sox have been there at least once a decade since 1960. What that translates into for me is Red Sox = good, White Sox = stinky. Sorry Paul, the truth hurts sometimes.

Yes but who suffers more, the one that continually has a good team yet falls just short, or the one that usually sucks every year? The Boston fan knows heartbreak, the White Sox fan knows shitty baseball. (I'm a Philies/Mariner fan btw - not from Boston)

Hey, why not bring Coco Crisp to the Dodgers as well?

Go MARINERS!!!
