I just got home. Is Podsednik hurt from what I'm reading here?

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:27 PM) I'll set up a web cam and eat my hat if they start Orton opening day. No. F'ing. Way. I'll join you. The guy hasn't played a defense above 3rd string yet.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:19 PM) s*** i had Grossman on my fantasy team. What the hell kind of fantasy team is that??

Thank God for Boone.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:09 PM) give it to Orton. Not Hutchinson. Orton will be a stud trust me. This could be another Tom Brady situation. Remember in 2001 when Beldsoe went down and Brady was the backup and he led the Patriots to a superbowl. Orton hasn't played against anyone above 3rd string. Plus I just heard 4-6 weeks. Not out for season. He'll miss one or two regular season games.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:07 PM) at least there's illini football Until the season starts.

This is just surreal.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:06 PM) Swing the f***ing bat! Good job Ozzie....I can't believe how anyone could defend him tonight. Yeah, I'm pissed at Ozzie for blowing a 4-0 lead and all those walks he gave up, don't get me started on those.

Schilling has thrown 2 fastballs right down the middle to Aaron and nothing.

Rowand could of parked that.

Well this is interesting.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:00 PM) Would you have pulled Cotts? Probably not, but weren't you a guy a few minutes ago praising Francona for playing match ups? That's what Ozzie was doing. Ozzie didn't walk Renteria to get to Ortiz.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:00 PM) Screw a changeup, etc. Jenks has to be able to maintain his fastball from one game to the next. A 3 or 4 mph drop-off is pretty significant. I'm not looking too much into that. The TV gun is wrong sometimes, registering a few MPH slow.

Well that sucks in retrospect.

QUOTE(Ozzie Montana @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:57 PM) This game blowed. There is no doubt in my mind we should have put these Red Sox away. BAD PITCHING AND HOrrendous managing. I hope Ozzie doesnt do s*** like this in the playoffs but he will. Gimme a f***ing break. Horrendous pitching and bad fielding. Ozzie did nothing wrong. I wouldn't of had Buehrle starting the 7th, but oh well. Ortiz killed Jenks fastball and that's what you get for walking Renteria.

I've seen Jenks throw a change up a few times when he first came up to Oakland, I believe. Not sure why they don't use it more cuz Chavez was WAY out in front.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:30 PM) Ozzie is gonna let Buehrle get the CG. Buehrle shouldn't of even started the 7th.

Did that pitch look like it was gonna make it to the plate?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:23 PM) I'm not a fan of Crede, but if we lose this game, Buehrle is the goat. We gave him enough runs that we should have expected a win with him on the mound, and he s*** the bed tonight. DING!

TV just said sprained ankle and getting precautionary X-rays

Sprained ankle, no biggie

Un-be-lievable

Used to watch Thundercats all the time when I was young, but I wouldn't buy it. Just to take some heat off you, I buy the seasons of Quantum Leap when they are released.

Picture looks like a WCIU broadcast.

Maybe alone here, but I think the short turnout for preseason games is overrated. 1st string isn't out there that mutch anyway. Still practice.
