Some people who spend a lot of time around them might find them more arrogant than professional athletes. <BR/><BR/>Frank is one of the greatest hitters ever, and it would be a sweet peace of justice to watch him slug it in the World Series.La Sirenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565141127124213800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26108981.post-1160604110318420032006-10-11T17:01:00.000-05:002006-10-11T17:01:00.000-05:00Yes, it was actually this year's toughest division...Yes, it was actually this year's toughest division...but that sounds like bragging: something Texans never do.<BR/><BR/>The Indians started the year as my dark horse, but they couldn't've contended anywhere.<BR/><BR/>The Big Hurt was victimized by the Sox in many ways, regardless what anyone thinks of him. He did more for that team than anyone in memory, and Ken Williams can go suck it.<BR/><BR/>Getting traded isn't what amped up Frank's hitting, getting well is what did it. If the crappy Sox Dr.'s diagnosis hadn't hobbled Frank, and nearly torpedoed a Hall of Fame career, he would never have struggled and been thrown away like so much garbage. <BR/><BR/>I didn't like him or his temperament much, early on. But he has redeemed himself in my book, and redemption cuts a lot of ice with me. <BR/><BR/>He is one of the greatest hitters to ever play the game. I am happy to see him shine.Indigobusinesshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10805496512951830272noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26108981.post-1160597887618557972006-10-11T15:18:00.000-05:002006-10-11T15:18:00.000-05:00DAMN!

They are honing in on this arguement from around the country!<BR/><BR/>IB -- It's not nice to pick on the infirm, which Pelmo is as a South Side Cub's fan.<BR/><BR/>Actually, the Sox are in this season's toughest division, and the Indians did not bring it this year, although they too could have been contenders in another division.<BR/><BR/>It's also one of the most fun divisions to watch, and with the Sox out of the playoffs this year, I might be able to afford to attend a couple of games next year.<BR/><BR/>I have mixed feelings about the Big Hurt. He was on the injured list for a season and a half -- and they actually kept him on last season alot longer than I expected-- but he was with the Sox for 15 seasons. He can be an arrogant asshole, but athletes aren't role models.<BR/><BR/>Ultimately, getting traded really amped up his hitting -- and as you say, laugh lasts are best.La Sirenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06565141127124213800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26108981.post-1160593242699524872006-10-11T14:00:00.000-05:002006-10-11T14:00:00.000-05:00Only a Cubs fan would say something so idiotic, or...Only a Cubs fan would say something so idiotic, or use <I>then</I> for <I>than</I>.

Much like the Cubs.<BR/><BR/>Baseball is primarily a little boys game <I>within the friendly confines</I>.<BR/><BR/>Regarding the Sox, they are in a tough division.
