Kid Gleason Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 So kids, lets see how things stack up against last year. Are you still believing this team will be post-season, or do you think they are done? No fighting, just a simple "in" or "out", as we did last year.

fathom Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 WE'RE STILL IN FRONT IN THE WILD CARD STANDINGS! If anyone says they're "out", they should just stop watching baseball and go watch Dancing with the Stars, or something that requires no intestinal fortitude.

whitesoxfan101 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Of course we still have a shot, we have a 1/2 game Wild Card lead. But the team is playing like they are out, hence the anger around here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iguchi=dank Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 IN IN IN obviously in. G-Load for leadoff LF 6-man rotation BA growing. dye being great. thome and konerko can rebound. STILL alot to like, and I'm gonna going to be there till the end. WE WON LAST YEAR, and if today ended we'd be in the playoffs. all but 4 teams in the AL would want to be where we are and you ask if were in or out. ok Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greg775 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Like fathom said, I'm IN. But I won't be surprised if we continue to suck the rest of the season. There are no signs of coming out of this since none of our starters are guaranteed to shut teams down and come up with wins like last year. This year, it's Det's starters.

I wish I felt better about it, though. IN.. I will always be with this team..win or lose..even if they don't make the playoffs they are still my team.. But I think we might get in just because the problems the other teams have (Minny, Boston) not because we go .600 the rest of the way..but we go .530 and Minny goes .520 and Boston .500.. But I will continue to root for this team next year if they don't make it (and the year after that, 2008, etc.)... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fathom Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 There's going to be a long line at the doctor's office tomorrow.

No matter how bad we play, if we LEAD THE WILD CARD, you can't give up. But that may not last long, and if not for Boston collapsing and Lirano's arm falling off, we'd already be a few games in the hole. But can't jump off the wagon yet.

Punch and Judy Garland Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 I am still definitely in. If we make the playoffs, I don't feel we would lose. Obviously the trick is to do what we failed to do for this entire decade and even last year since we weren't in a heat with them, to go against the Minnesota Twins and come out ahead. I think we can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no signs of coming out of this since none of our starters are guaranteed to shut teams down and come up with wins like last year. This year, it's Det's starters. I'm in, but people here have to stop talking about pitching being THE issue and our offense to be daunting when we continually lack the capability to jump on someone for 3 runs in the 1st or come from 4 down to make it a game. I live in CA and was having lunch today with a friend from Chgo and a Cub fan, he was talking about being at the 14-10 Cub win in gm 3 and even though the Cubs were putting up big runs the swagger of the Sox was flat out intimidating, the words he used were "they're so big, you got Konerko, Thome, AJ, Crede, it just keeps coming and I told my buddy next to me these friggin guys are gonna win the World Series.....AGAIN!!" I really miss THAT Sox team..... Once I saw us down 3 runs today early, I automatically could feel the offense would do absolutely nothing to challenge and that's how the game ended, so people pls stop the talk about how we can "score with the best of em if only our pitching would come around" We're going to live and die by offense this year, plain and simple and if ours doesn't do what on paper it should, then yes, the season will end with the reg. season.

GoodAsGould Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Im always in as long as we are leading or relatively close...... but that doesnt mean im not fed up with this team because I am.. I think I need to not watch for a couple weeks because the whitesox are the one thing besides my parents that can really piss me off.

SoxHawk1980 Posted August 23, 2006 Share Posted August 23, 2006 Are we still in the race? Yes Can we still make it to the playoffs? Yes Do I think we will make it to the playoffs? No The smart money is not on the White Sox this season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
