AND THATS A WHITE SOX PLAYOFF WINNER
Big Ed Walsh, Were you a big Gary Peters, Joel Horlen Pete Ward fan? Give us some stories bout those guys if ya would.

The Game 1 Starter is...
It's so key he pitches well (duh). If he could win and take us into Jose and Mark B, that would be great. Hope he's well rested and kicks ass.

Is Marte assured off the ALCS Roster?
Can we beat the Angels?

I HEART URIBE
He is so hot since changing his stance with Walker, doing the leg kick or whatever the hell he's doing to excel! Kudos to Juan. Kudos to Greg Walker also if that helped.

The Game 1 Starter is...
My gosh; that shocks me. I figured they'd go witih the same rotation and simply let Jon sit. Hopefully the magic continues but did any of you also think he'd go Contreras, Mark and Fred again?

EL DUQUE
Got it! Alot of folks had no faith in the White Sox. They don't have big names or astounding stats, just play 9 innings of baseball every day. Not bad for a bunch of chokers, eh Moronotti?

Is Marte assured off the ALCS Roster?
Hate to say it but we need 2 lefties. He must stay.

AND THATS A WHITE SOX PLAYOFF WINNER
Wow is all I can say. El Duque? Amazing. And so many wanted him off the roster in favor of McCarthy. Let's hope Oz and KW continue their roll. Oz looks like the best manager since Casey Stenglerock right now. Amazing baseball, White Sox. Oh, it would be so nice to have a repeat of this in terms of somehow winning the first two games of the next series at the Cell. It guarantees nothing but it sure is big to keep the homefield!

Hawk
That's sad he can't do the games on radio or something, real sad.

Weather
I'd prefer not facing Wells again! No rain; lets wrap it up.

How'd u celebrate when Gooch went yard?
This is the most enjoyable post I've ever read on this or any site. Awesome. I was at work and pretty quiet, when Graffy made the boot I said to myself, 'make them pay for the error.' When he hit that ball I knew it was gone obviously and said, 'My God, he hit a 3 run homer; we've taken the lead.' The baseball fans in my area were impressed because early a couple were remarking how Wells was " a big game pitcher and this series is gonna be tied 1-1." I wish I had a pic of the s*** eating grin on my face. And a pic of Bobby recording the last out.

Chicago @ Boston - ALDS Game 3
I'll be on a plane to California when the game starts; I won't know anything until I land. Yeah, it will be the most stressful plane flight of my life. I'll also be away from humanity for most of the game, but I'm not that nervous because even if we lose, we do have that 2-0 margin to work with. I'd love for us to wrap it up, but truly it is one game at a time with the motto "anything can happen" this time of season. GO SOX!

Famous White Sox Fans
Geez if we need to have Ray Rayner on the list we are hurting. Wasn't he bozo's sidekick? We need to milk the Jenny McCarthy and Jessica Simpson thing. Get them to the games! If they come we'll have all the celebrities on camera we need. Jenny needs to get her ass to the games and bring Jessica and her hubby.
-
Quick thought on Ozzie
And kudos to Jenks for pitching well. I was also surprised at him working two innings. He was great. That double by Graffy scared me though.
-
Graffy, Man of the Year!
Tough error, but I'm glad he made it and gladder Iguchi made him pay for it. And yes I'd rather have Graffy than Blum or Ozuna.
-
I have to give it to Buehrle
You said it all: Gutsy performance! As far as Crede he does look lost at times. He did make some good plays as the game progressed, you've got to admit. I sure hope Oz merely yells at him and doesn't do anything stupid like go with Ozuna. Hopefully Joe has learned something from his first two playoff games. We need him to play well, not play Ozuna.
-
Clutch hitting
I was so psyched that Iguchi made 'em pay for the error. What a clutch blast off a veteran who was pitching a helluva game. Clutch hitting! Gotta love it. Nice to get a day off today and enjoy our 2-0 status for now. GO SOX!
-
Crowd Today
That's awesome the crowd was so into it. We really need to win Game Two. If we go to Boston 1-1 they could wrap it up there. Our boys need to gut out a win vs. Wells. Let's hope Mark B. is on. Jose set the table today; keep it going, White Sox and those loud fans!
-
Bunt on David Wells
Maybe Pods should bunt but I'd just take the same approach as today. Bunt some, hit some, beat the Bosox.
-
Boston @ Chicago - ALDS Game 1
Just wanted to say it's been a great last offseason on this site and great season on this site and to all die-hard sox fans, enjoy, enjoy, enjoy tomorrow's game and coming contests. My prediction: Sox in 5. Which Sox ... dunno.
-
I hope Ozzie reconsiders his Closer Situation
I prefer Hermy too, but trust Oz and Coop because anything can happen and probably willl with our 99 win team. It seems lately when Jenks gives up a run it's usually just one run, which I guess is good.
-
I'm so sick of hearing 15 to 1 1/2
With the Sox playing airtight, first-half-style ball, they reduced the Indians to what they [sox] had been in recent weeks before finally clinching the AL Central title: pressing, wheezing losers --This guy has the best job in the world. He can call the Sox the Wheeze Sox and chokers for weeks and write away, then pull a "never mind" and call the Indians the biggest chokers. He sucks. Simplistic bulls***.
-
What's your #1 key to a ALDS win?
Same as every game: Starting pitching must dominate; defense must be good; four runs must be enough.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER!!!
Who would have though Brant Sizemore's flyball drop in KC would end a season so quickly? It's amazing after that incredible 2-month comeback the Tribe went 1-6 to end it. Baseball is the wildest game ever invented. Thank goodness he dropped that fly ball. Who'd thunk the series in Cleveland a.) would mean little to nothing and b.) we'd sweep it? Amazing stuff. GO SOX!

Boston @ Chicago - ALDS Game 1
Is it Jose's turn in the rotation? I'd have started Freddie in Game One, just a gut feeling he'd be the man. p.s. which team do the shadows favor? The game will be played in the shadows of late afternoon baseball.
