Nokona

Seemed to me the umps wanted out of there ASAP

I'm sure he knows the hitting is the problem. He was probably trying to say that it's more mental than anything. The guys are either pushing too hard or goofing off too much.

I blame Hawk.

deep breaths

sources indicate pat foley will return

QUOTE (fathom @ Apr 22, 2008 -> 01:41 PM) Wait, did the Mets make more defensive blunders today? Routine grounder to 2nd, Delgado couldn't run the 15 feet to 1st, Ted Lilly beat it out when Figueroa couldn't get there. Reed Johnson then hit a bloop shot into LF that scored two runs.

That right there is why OC is such a great leader. Things like that matter to him.

And didn't the Sox ask Shingo if he was comfortable? I mean after all, it was his opening. No different then blasting Back in Black or Enter the Sandman

QUOTE (Soxpranos @ Apr 20, 2008 -> 08:50 PM) An ACE can get you out with any pitch in their arsenal, in the zone. Mark tries to fool guys and make them fish outside the zone. Yeah. Greg Maddux was a number 3 pitcher

Let's see that hammer again tonight Gavin

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Apr 17, 2008 -> 03:10 PM) Boers and Bernstein played a clip from the Reds announcers, i believe Marty Brennamen and Jeff Brantley, who absolutely laid into the Cubs fans, calling them something like the most obnoxious fans in baseball, etc... it's pretty funny The best part was that some caller called in all "They disrespected Chicago! They hit way too close to home! They blamed the Cubs sucking on the fans!" Then Boers and Bernstine were like "...not at all. They just said it was tasteless." So the caller ls liek "Yeah well those hillbillies from Cincinatti are just jealous that WE won the war." B & B started cracking up "Yes, the garbage throwers of Antietam! The projectile vomiting at xxxx! All the urinating at Gettysburg!" It was so off the cuff and perfect

QUOTE (ChiSox35 @ Apr 17, 2008 -> 04:07 PM) Griff with the shot. That's awesome. Lately it seems like every Cub fan I know has been off the hook cocky about their moderate start against the cream of baseballs crop (Pirates, Reds, a busted up Phillies team, and starting tomorrow, the Pirates again). It's honestly hilarious.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Apr 17, 2008 -> 01:06 PM) Haha... I'm not so sure I want Soxtalk running the Sox. Why Joe Crede for Howie Kendric and Ervin Santana would so definitely happen then

I gotta say, it's hard for me to root against Greinke and Bannister. Bannister is a total stat geek. Worships Bill James and %'s.

Honestly 13 and 15 innings in back to back games with the Pirates. Combo that with 3 times they gave up the lead. Disgusting

I had a Cubs fan try to explain to me that Henry Blanco is a great hitter on another forum I visit. Hilarious

QUOTE(BearSox @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 09:00 AM) All 14 of those questions are valid. I see nothing wrong with them. No one knows anything really about Obama. It'd be nice if he actually got some hardball questions instead of the usual crap he gets on shows like the view. You do realize you asked for hardball questions from The View right?

Someone let Rick Nash know if he wants to take cheap shots he might want to take his shield off when he decides to throw down.

MagJo and Samsonov...ugh

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Nov 14, 2007 -> 02:43 PM) Two Hawk football players under investigation for sexual assault. Everson and Satterfield have not dressed and Ferentz has said they are not in "good standing" for a month now.

BAAAAANNNNERMAN HE DID IT AGAIN!

Kane to Toews 3-1. Beautiful

I seem to have forgotten when he got caught using steroids...

How beautiful would it be if Torre and ARod went and won a WS in LA

QUOTE(dasox24 @ Oct 14, 2007 -> 02:14 AM) 2) All you Illinois fans out there, let Iowa fans live it up now b/c in another year or two, y'all will be crushing Iowa... And they know that, which is why all these Illini-haters are gonna talk s*** while they still can. You do realize this team is one of the youngest in the B10 and has half their offense and their defensive leader hurt for extended periods of time? Oh and that Kirk Ferentz guy is pretty good
