Controlled Chaos

Ozzie likes to get pitchers their wins. Maybe Ozzie thought it was a little more important to get Jon his first victory under his belt then the off chance they might blow this game all together. This is game 9 of a long fricken season...maybe just maybe Ozzie knows what he is doing,

Just heard an ad for "The Huge Show with Bill Simonson" on Detroit station. Isn't that the guy that opened his mouth up and caught a beat down at Armour Square?

Crede Double

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 01:14 PM) That ball leaves almost every park in the big leagues. DOH!!!!

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 01:13 PM) I absolutely hate it when Thome hits a shot that hits the top of the wall or barely, barely misses. Podsednik scores on a Thome double. Was it a homer in any other park?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 01:10 PM) Scott, I don't care if you get thrown out by IRoid...RUN get outta my head!! You may wander over to the right side...

I dont care if he gets nails...i want him to run

1-6-3. nice!!

Here's Grilli on ESPN gamecast....

Who was worried about the Sox facing rookie pitchers??

QUOTE(Finkelstein @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 12:51 PM) Yeah, lets give Pods a chance to get used his "ball-and-chain" Just check out those legs...she prolly squeezes all the juice right out of him. He's frickin drained when he gets to the park.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 12:42 PM) I'm convinced Podsednik is just completely lost. He doesn't know which end is up right now. It's not like he's even having some nice at-bats or showing some faint signs of life. me thinks he is just somewaht distracted

The detroit radio just called Ordonez walk. that's how far behind it is.

Hopefully pods comes out of it.... Thome needs some steaks!!

TADAHITO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(White Sox Fan For Life @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 10:36 AM) You did tell me how you felt about curses in baseball but then you started to ask me how would I feel if the White Sox were in the same position? So I am not the one who got off track. My examples are approving, because it is asking the question that if there really were a curse in baseball that when a baseball player on a supposedly cursed team makes an error in a game why is it in the outcome that player has to hear crap from everyone? Why is their no leniency for that? Isn't it suppose to be the curses fault on why a team looses if people so happened to believe in a curse and not on the team's performance? So what if the White Sox won the first game in the 1959 World Series against the Dodgers and lost the other games. It was not a curse because their are days when teams have their good games and when teams have their bad games. So if you are saying that if a team goes on a losing streak just right after having a great winning streak they are assumed to be cursed? Their could be other factors why the Marlins win a World Series every six years which is they go on a fire because they can't afford to keep their players who become free agents and then ask for a higher salary. When rookies come up to the big leauges their is an unlikely chance that they will have an extremely great year. A rookie needs to develop through a course of time to be good in the game. 'there' meet 'their' When you write your paper differentiate between the two. Good luck!! FTR...I don't believe in curses.

Any suggestions? oops...sorry that was for him...I just quoted you cause you had asked him a question as well.... I just found it hard to believe that someone over 18 wouldn't buy a playboy mag. I find it even more difficult to belive that a girl that is older than 18 has a problem with it. It seems like the s*** I went through with my girlfriend when I was 14, 15...

haha...good stuff. I laughed out loud many times.... One of my favs

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 10:47 AM) Ok..next question, is your gf hot? Actually my next question was going to be are you old enough to buy it?

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 10:23 AM) What do you do when you are really, really, pissed off? I just went for an hour walk and got back and the &^#^^%$#(&^% is still pissing me off. Pissed off at someone or something?

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 10:03 AM) Sorry my post should have been in green. I'm just playing the fool Yeah I kinda don't like her hair in those pictures. And yes that was the first thing I noticed. :banghead I noticed the artistry of the airbrushing. It's phenomanal work!!

QUOTE(SoxPhan7 @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 08:23 AM) The girl friend wont let me buy it. Ya think you can post a recap and perhaps the funny stuff? I'm waiting for the "I'm f***ing with you guys" post.

QUOTE(juddling @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 12:02 AM) I don't remember hearing about this before but since Bucky got the boot tonight.....here's some news for the heck of it. Report: 'Idol' Finalist Bucky Covington Duped Police To Help Twin 'American Idol' hopeful deceived state trooper to spare brother a possible prison stint. "American Idol" finalist Bucky Covington Back in 1998, in what sounds like a scene lifted straight from "The Parent Trap," "American Idol" finalist Bucky Covington deceived a North Carolina state trooper to spare his twin brother, Rocky, a possible prison stint. According to CourtTV.com, the identical Covington boys pulled it off, too — but not without first being arrested on charges of hit and run, resisting a public officer, giving fictitious information to a public officer, driving with a suspended license and leaving the scene of an accident. CourtTV.com reports that on February 25, 1998, Gene Covington, Bucky's father, was sitting on his motorcycle, waiting to make a left turn into his driveway, which is situated near the crest of a hill in Laurinburg, North Carolina. Behind him, sitting at the wheel of Bucky's truck, was Rocky, waiting to make that same turn. While the Covingtons waited for a break in oncoming traffic, high school student Ryan Roller was driving up the hill toward them in his father's truck; he did not notice the vehicles were stopped in the lane on the other side of the hill until it was too late. Roller slammed on his brakes and skidded into the back of Bucky's pickup. No one was injured, but the accident resulted in more than $4,000 in damages to the vehicles. Rocky (who was 20 at the time of the incident) had previously had his license suspended for speeding, drinking while driving and driving with a revoked license. With police en route, the elder Covington, in an effort to spare Rocky a stint in jail, summoned Bucky, who had an almost spotless driving record, to the accident scene. When police arrived, Bucky claimed that he'd been the one driving the truck at the time of the collision in order to keep Rocky out of trouble. Roller was urged to cooperate and did — for the time being. According to CourtTV.com, Roller later confessed the whole plot to his father, who then contacted Bucky's father. When the two dads couldn't come to an agreement on who'd be paying for repairs to the damaged trucks, Roller's father called the police. Not long after, a Richmond County District Court judge issued a warrant for Bucky's arrest — he was charged with resisting an officer and giving fictitious information to a public officer. Rocky was also booked on driving with a suspended license, leaving the scene of an accident and hit-and-run charges. Last July, the Covington twins were tried in court, but the case tripped up when Roller was asked to point out the brother who'd been driving the truck he rear-ended. "I picked out the wrong one," he told CourtTV.com. "That was bad." The judge subsequently dismissed all charges. "We couldn't say which one did what," explained Lewis Fadely, the prosecutor who handled the case. "In a criminal trial, you have to be able to say, 'The defendant did this, this and this.' We couldn't. They looked so gosh darn the same." Wow. What the hell is up with that Roller kids dad. What kind of an agreeement do you have to come to. Your son rear-ended someone. Pay up. I mean you can say whatever you want about who was behind the wheel, but the fact is the guys son was still at fault....so what's the deal I'm glad he couldn't pick which brother was which...

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Apr 12, 2006 -> 03:10 PM) I heard some people calling him a Lumberjack. That sounds about right. He has some good old fashioned country boy power.

Great game Jose!! Way to go Big Jim!! Do we have any nicknames going for Thome yet? Did he ever have one?
