witesoxfan Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I think I just figured out that our slump started when Jamie Burke got knocked into last week by Torii Hunter, and since that, we've proven that we are a bunch of little b****es who do not play hard nosed baseball. What we need is a brawl, or someone to just hit the s*** out of IRod/someone else's catcher on a sac fly or something...this team needs a spark, and it ain't gonna happen by itself. Until then, expect to lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rowand44 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 I think it's the curse of Damon Andrews, we can't win since he left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilliamTell Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 This team really needs to get tough. A brawl would probably help in more ways than just one. It'd possibly make them tougher and it'd bring team unity too. I don't know if this team is doing a good job with that right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Our slump started when Crede hit the walk off homer didn't it? What a disfunctional team we have. That was supposed to be the key to living life w/out Frank n Maggs. Instead we lose every game. Nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marsh Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 what this team will do is keep losing until everyone writes them off. then they will relax and go on a little run, climb back into the race and then freeze up and end up losing the division by like six games. happens every year it seems. :puke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSUBUCKS2 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 i remember in 2000 how the huge detroit brawl sparked the sox. maybe thatll be the case tomrorow, we can only hope Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Yeah! Let's get in a brawl so a bunch of guys have to serve suspensions and not play!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 i remember in 2000 how the huge detroit brawl sparked the sox. maybe thatll be the case tomrorow, we can only hope That should have been done on Monday or Tuesday. Makes no sense to start a brawl with a team that plays hard and CLEAN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SouthPaw Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Yeah I agree that last thing we need is for another player to be unavailable. Although it is obvious that this team needs a swift kick in the ass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knightni Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 That was what.. the third bases loaded walk this month? The bullpen guys seem to lose control when they put men on base. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anything to get this team goin again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
winninguglyin83 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 this is life without Frank and Maggs. And it ain't very pretty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bighurt52235 Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 The slump started on Sunday in the 7th inning when the Tigres did all that s*** with two out, nobody on. I assume the title word was P*ssies, and I'm wondering why that must be edited. I'm not throwing out free speach s***, I just think it curious that something was edited, because this site is sometimes quite vulgar.

SoxAce Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 Damn I'm still waiting for that 10 game winnig streak that this team can get. I guess I'll have to wait alittle longer.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To me that's more vulgar then just about any other word... but again, that's me. So, if y'all think I'm wrong for it, pm me and that's that.

I'm not throwing out free speach s***, I just think it curious that something was edited, because this site is sometimes quite vulgar. I don't know what the word was. It could have been many things As for that word, "pussies" is a word that is used to convey very great negative associations regarding a female body part, and carries very negative associations against women. It is a gender based insult and I personally am not comfortable with it. A female body part should not be used to convey negative associations nor used to convey an insult or derision or a generalized form of weakness. Considering a number of those with testicles on this board have been the fastest and quickest to give up, moan and groan, and carry on and on and on, while our posters with vaginas have been our strongest, most resolute posters, it is not a most apt word, either. But there is no soxtalk policy on that word. However, if the word were "pussies" or "assholes" or "s***heads" or whatever, there is a difference between a word used in a post and a word used in a thread title. There is no hard and fast rule on that either. I back Kap up totally here. A word that is usable in a thread is not necessarily something to be used in a thread title. It is purely a judgment call by the admin. Maybe the issue is aesthetics or professional appearance or just simply the admin's gut reaction. Freer use of language is part of soxtalk. This was just a title vs post thing. In my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoda Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 That walk-off HR by Crede was the last good hit we got, after that we’ve been playing like s***! I agree we do need a spark, but not by getting into some kind of brawl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kapkomet Posted August 1, 2004 Share Posted August 1, 2004 This was just a title vs post thing. That was exactly my thought. I always did find that word offensive, but again that's me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
