Craziest/Best/Worst Winter Meetings White Sox Rumors

I think this is an appropriate section for this week to post the most insane, best, non sensical rumors you hear or can think of for this week. So post your Paul Konerko for Kotchman and Figgins Phil Rogers fueled rumors here. I'd like to have a central point of all the rumors to look back on at the end of the offseason just to see how dumb or accurate they were. Plus, we can avoid all of the dead horse pictures in the normal threads and post them here if you so desire.

i heard that the sox
are going to trade flowers for gio gonzales then package gonzales with konerko and hudson in a trade for matt halliday so they will have exclusive bargaining rights with him.
but seriously, i’m just going sit back and wait to see what happens because when it comes down to it all you really need is the phil rogers plus/minus system.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
Oh man
I forgot about this completely. Thanks for bringing me a laugh from the past to close the day.
you want more hilarity?
go here. it is the blog entry in which mr. rogers attempts to “clarify” his system only to be unmercifully beat down in the comments by the general public who explain to him in no uncertain terms that in fact the problem with his system is not that people do not understand what he is positing but rather that they are in complete disbelief that such a theory not only entered into the mind of a human being but was then printed in a prominent newspaper.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
You know what is hilarious???
His system actually worked that year. =X

Christ, he was pounded.
Pounded! Great stuff.

you must not have clicked the link.
it goes to the FJM analysis of the article, not the original article itself.

i saw
the trib did delete it because i have searched for it in the past. I found part II of the article where he had to explain himself again but that was not nearly as entertaining.

So we can mock those who were inaccurate later
it would be good to attach a link to whatever rumor you come across.

good call.
I love the small time guys who make up rumors in hopes they get followed by the major rumor sites. some of those types are usually the best.

Also, i guess lets not just limit this to white sox related rumors either if its completely off the wall.
i’d like to remember some of those types as well, even if not sox related.

Konerko for Milton Bradley and the Head of Ernie Banks...
There's Your Zagnut!!!

really? i heard it was ted williams' head.
but i wouldn’t do it. i hear he’s a little dinged up.
the suck is not just a river in ireland.
Sox often get guys on the rebound
I don’t know why that wouldn’t extend to severed parts.
EVERYBODY PICK US FOR 3RD OR 4TH SO I DINK WE DOIN POOTY GOO
Sox Machine
yeah, they are still working out contract details for Ray Kroc's head
great OBP (limited to no strike zone) – only question is his speed and recent pie in the face shenanigans that made him “head non grata” in SD.

…hopefully not this time

Konerko to be turned into leadoff hitter
no not in a trade for figguns
Kenny on the leadoff spot: “We are going to put Konerko up there and see how it works out.” It’s like open mic night at the Winter Meetings

Crawford for Quentin
Sources with Tampa Bay and the Sox said the sides had talked several times this offseason, not only checking out closer Bobby Jenks and his availability in a deal, but more specifically a trade that would have sent Carlos Quentin to the Rays for Carl Crawford.
12/12/07- We'll miss you Andy Gonzalez
wouldnt an upton for quentin
deal make a lot more sense financially and in terms of how many years they have each under control? tampa probably prefers to deal crawford though because hes almost certain to leave after this year.

Matsui
Mark Feinsand of the New York Daily News reports that the White Sox have emerged as a “serious contender” for free agent Hideki Matsui.
12/12/07- We'll miss you Andy Gonzalez
He'd be a nice, expensive DH.
Plus, we’d need another Asian to complement him. Where’s Gooch/Shingo?
"don tink about new jork. jus come in ready to wing de gay."
bring back man soo lee
he was the key to our success anyways.
12/12/07- We'll miss you Andy Gonzalez
korean, but asians are fungible, amirite?
These events have me frightened and on the verge of evacuating my bowels.
wu just said asian so i went with the sox most important one....

I think he is saying they all are worth the same.
"don tink about new jork. jus come in ready to wing de gay."
which is, in fact, nothing.
RAFF OUT ROUD!!!

i nicknamed the backup catcher on the school's baseball team man soo
because every time i stopped by a game he was warming pitchers up. he doesn’t get it and just gets angry when i call him that. highly enjoyable.

Wouldn't he still be insulted if he did get it?
I doubt anyone wants to be known for being a bullpen pitcher in school.

i'd be proud to be korea's all time home run king

You're a jackass.
You don’t know his name b/c he’s Korea’s all time home run king. You know him because he’s a bullpen catcher. You are calling that kid Man Soo b/c he’s catching in a bullpen. You’re insulting him, he should be angry.
by Grinder in Training on Dec 10, 2009 12:48 PM CST up reply actions
yup i dont know him at all
he didn’t spend 5 minutes in my classroom yesterday making fun of me. its all about being a jackass. boy was i pissed about that.
i will give you credit for jumping in and being quite judgemental. well done sir.

You're a jackass
for saying it has anything to do with him being a home run king, when clearly that has nothing to do with why you called him Man Soo. Grow up.

where did i say it has anything to do with it?

is that what i'm saying?
is that why i’m a jackass?

i thought it was because you were commenting on the penis size of one of your students.

Ozzie Guillen asked about his starting outfield. Starts naming players. Gets confused. Says: “Ask Joey Cora. He knows all our guys.”
