PrintThis year, White Sox fans have two options when it comes to picking a spring training destination: Glendale or Tampa.
(Thanks to my buddy David M. Baker for putting it together.)

Excellent! Gustavo. Really?
And when did Sox Machine come back from the dead?

It's an interesting topic.
The NYT had an article on how people’s Internet identities carry on after they are dead, and how there is an industry sprouting up to address those issues. Tough to close out/change things. I tried to pay for something via PayPal yesterday and got frustrated because I could NOT change my GD e-mail address.

Excellent.
The video effects…the generic production music….
Love it!

Speaking of commercials

Two people at the grocery store try to re create Burls’ opening day flip.

this made my day
"There's too many (bleeping) guys on the computer. It's simple. I say that. Pete Rose never watched a computer. Rod Carew never did. All those hitters, they go out and see the ball, hit it and move on." - Ozzie
Nicely done...great production values
I hope to see more as the season progresses…or implodes.

Pretty good. I couldn't understand what you were saying in some parts, though.
Was that complex mental cases? metal cases?

Sounds like Rock n Roll McDonalds

I believe it is.
Although the title is just “Rock On Chicago.” It’s from a royalty-free music site.

Ahh. Gotcha. But yeah, all of his 200+ songs have at most maybe 5-6 keyboard tracks.

We can laugh at the Yankees
but keep in mind they did sign a secret weapon – Mark Prior.
Bwaaaa…ha…ha…haaaaaaaa!

I came back to this article like 5 times to read the comments before I realized who this was
I hope Kotsay gets hit by a dump truck and slips into a coma where he is stuck forever in Baseball purgatory having to bat against a three-headed, six-armed Lefty Hydra consisting of Billy Wagner, Damaso Marte, and Randy Johnson. - Shoeless In SC

He hasn't been gone but two years. Are you saying it's never been funny?
It started a whole line of F[insert name] inside jokes.
So. FNS.

Outside of the first time it was used, yeah.
The variations aren’t really better. That’s like Creed spinning off into Alter Bridge. Something terrible begets something terrible.

It stopped being funny when he became good again,
except when BuehrleMan does it. It’s his.
"One thought driven home is better than three left on base."
See, I don't find it "lol" funny. It's more amusing, in a twisted, spiteful way. Like how you say FJTIHSJA
That Swisher is now “good” makes the FNS more appropriate, in my mind. But to each his own. I don’t think I’ve ever used it, to be honest. But I certainly understand why people feel that way.

what can i say? i just don’t care for that fellow.
(on a related topic, anyone ever see the episode of spongebob squarepants titled “ripped pants”? he (spongebob) repeats a joke over and over until people hate him. i’ve seen it at least 40 times.)

An Andy Kaufman technique.
Piss off the audience. It’s why God decided to take home early. Didn’t know when to sit the fuck down.

And I will add... Creed's first album was tolerable. Actually, I kind of like a few songs.
As they progressed they became intolerable. I wouldn’t personally equate Creed to the F[x][y] things we say around here. I still get entertainment from one of those. Maybe I’m alone.
