QUOTE (shipps @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 07:44 PM) LOL Yeah thats it. Uniforms are their biggest attraction. They are incredible uniforms. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 07:46 PM) I don't know about biggest attraction, but the Sox logo is certainly iconic. I'm not sure if it's for all the right reasons all the time or if it even pays off, but there's something to be said about it. The hats are amazing, always in fashion.

All you need to know about the Royals is they are a s*** baseball team that feasts on the White Sox and lets the White Sox save their season time and again. 7-2 vs. Chicago this year and it woulda been 8-2 but one game got rained out in KC. KC would have won that game obviously in that 3-game series from hell in KC. The White Sox cure what ails the Royals ... always.

Some newspaper agrees with Greg. I challenge you all to read this and take off the PC hat and FIGHT THESE MOTHERf***ERS who have ruined our country. We are ALL at risk every single day of our lives. We are all on ISIS kill lists, people. http://www.feedspot.com/?dadi=1#feed/f_423...=43114937540794

So it's big news today Hillary called it "Radical Islam." Kudos to her. And f*** America if anybody thinks it is wrong to single out these MOTHERf***ERS for killing 50 Americans in a gawd-dam nightclub! Why can't we call those bastards whatever we want to call them. They are killing our people! This is a f***ing war, people. The P.C. police need to grow up in a hurry. These people are our enemy! At least Hillary did the right thing here for gawd sakes! I wish the PC people would just shut the f*** up once in a while. So what if "most" are peaceful. The radicals are motherf***ers.

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 08:27 PM) The saddest part to me is you're going to lose a whole generation of young would-be fans to the Cubs, because they've been on an upward trend for years--and now it's peaking--while we've gone the complete opposite direction. Forget those of us who have been around--how long do you think youngsters are going to get behind the Sox because their parents did when all their classmates are enjoying a first-class, winning team (in a great park) that's probably going to the World Series this year and probably more than one in the near future? Again: the last decades speaks for itself. The system doesn't work. There's no learning curve. Even having an ace like Sale doesn't help, or potential ace Quintana who's been getting completely shafted by having no run support. Our big signings are busts, our farm league is in shambles--just what exactly is competently run at this organization? Then there's the other weird thing with seemingly good players like Eaton or even Frazier apparently regressing while White Sox. The whole thing screams: Blow. It. Up. Unfortunately, I think we're in a McCaskey situation here with JR as owner. The difference being the Bears sell out regardless. We don't. Not even close. Hell, even the hardcore fans are bailing. The only good thing about the Sox and only thing to attract kids/fans is the uniforms. They are the best in baseball with the black and white stripes and the Sox logo. The hat also.

Obama is right on this issue. These ISIS people should not be given access to assault rifles! Why in the hell does any American need an assault rifle?? So a fear of the police turning on the citizenry has Americans loading up on assault weapons? I hate to break it to them. If the police decide to fight us, they will win. Ever hear of them dropping hand grenades on your house, etc? You don't need an assault rifle.

Q-What do you think the odds are of Hillary getting indicted on charges concerning her emails? I'd say 40-60.

QUOTE (Black_Jack29 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 04:30 PM) The fact that Rollins was still playing at age 37, with tens of millions in the bank and a WS ring on his finger, strongly implies that he really enjoys playing baseball. I seriously doubt that he wanted to be released. It has to be hell playing for the White Sox right now with their record the last month or so.

LOL we are playing the Tigers again? We ain't such a good team vs. Det, Cleveland and KC. Look for more misery. We don't beat Detroit. that is for sure.

The Sox record since being 23-10 is ridiculously bad, almost historically bad if we continue that pace the rest of the season. Robin should be fired, case closed. The team's performance this year and last. The team's performance in the Central Division games. Just get rid of him. NOW. Please? It's obvious he deserves the boot as much as Rollins did and Albers did and Humber did. And Latos did. It's time!

QUOTE (reiks12 @ Jun 13, 2016 -> 05:53 AM) It is a mental thing For example you have Adam Eaton, who is on record of saying that the team was mentally defeated after last years opening series 4 game sweep to the Royals. He said they couldn't shake the feeling all year. Adam Eaton's line against Detroit, KC, and Cleveland: .177 AVG, .213 OBP, .302 Slugging He is just an example, I love Eaton and no I am not saying we should replace him or whatever. He is an amazing hitter, just not against these 3 teams. Whatever mental bug these guys have against the Central (minus the Twins) needs to be figured out if we want to have a chance at making a run in this division. For some reason the Sox are always a big picture team. Like Eaton said it was over after the first series last year. This year they gave up after the Texas choke. Game, set, match. Whether we go .500ish or completely in the tank, 20-30 under is anybody's guess but we ain't winning anything of note. The team has already decided that.

I bet deep down Rollins was glad to get released. Had to be the worst experience of his baseball career I'd think playing with this woe-begone team. This has to be one of the worst hitting team in Sox history. It's like the 60s when the mound was lower.

As the horror story of this continues I do need to ask the question ... Why do we need regular people buying assault rifles? Now if the ONLY reason is we are afraid the police are going to attack us someday, that is a pretty weak reason. I mean doesn't common sense suggest we ban such weapons from being purchased? I respect all people including gun advocates even though I've never actually picked up a real gun and I'm sure never will pick one up in my lifetime. Please explain. I am listening.

Why the USA? We're the only place in the world with these murders going on at least one a month. Why the political correctness? The FBI knew this guys was a f***ing America-hater. Why can't we make his life hell? Track him daily? Grill him? Rough him up? Our leader knew this guy was a danger!!! But PC means we can't touch him til he kills 50 people in a nightclub. All those young people dead. Probably most all of 'em had to be under 30. So this disaster most affects those who have had to grow up in a Post 9/11 world where the USA is a cesspool of violence. Chicago is a battle zone. Mass murders in schools, clubs, malls, next one is a sports arena. It will be so bad. You can't tell me these homegrown madmen aren't going to pull one of those off. Only thing good about this situation last night is the killer is dead. I still haven't read how the cops shot him or what the killer did with his hostages. Last thing I read was he had hostages. What a country. Some person reports she was saved only because she hid under a pile of dead bodies. Sorry you had to die, victims. Very sorry. Hope there is a heaven and you are in it. Hope all the future killers are caught by the FBI BEFORE they murder! p.s. could we please make it more difficult or impossible to buy assault rifles? I read the bastard that did this recently went and bought his weapons legally.

Fire Robin. You guys know who I want to hire.

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 07:24 PM) Royals are just as dead as the Sox this year, just with injuries. 7-2 vs. Chicago. QUOTE (SleepyWhiteSox @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 08:28 PM) I went Friday. Great game. That turned out to be one of the 60 you win every year just by showing up. Good thing Melky got a good read on the final out or we'd have been swept. Please fire Robin and the hitting coach both. Please???

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 08:56 PM) I thought by not watching the game today, I'd do the SOX a service. f*** it, while they suck dick time to get paid, betting hard against them every game now. Me too. I didn't watch one pitch thank goodness and only checked the score as I was driving to 5 p.m. Mass. Disgraceful baseball team.

LOL at the patsies, the White Sox. Once again they are just what the doctor ordered for a lousy, struggling KC team. Ventura can't get anybody out and he shuts down our horrible lineup. So Sox are 2-7 vs. KC this year. What a joke. 2-7 against a lousy Royals team with a bunch of no names in the lineup and horrible starting pitchers who get healthy on the Sox. Sox are one of the worst teams in baseball, that is now a fact.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 04:12 PM) This world sucks sometimes. Amen, Rowand. That is my reaction, not a bunch of political bulls***. Sadness for victims and their families. Glad the bastard who did the shooting is dead. QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 05:19 PM) Why is every post in here about Trump? Even as someone who only posts about Trump, that's embarassing. Very embarrassing. Very. It shows even more how many Americans are so used to these shootings they just chalk it up as another incident. I think of the horror in that building and the poor people who died and all the people helping the wounded. QUOTE (Tex @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 05:31 PM) These are our neighbors, our co workers, the guy or gal that makes our internet work, teaches our children, cooks our food, takes care of us when we are sick, we say hello on the sidewalk. Now fifty have been killed and we focus on the rippling affect throughout our society. Hopefully those ripples take out the hate, the blind f***ing hate in this world. Amen, Tex. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 07:03 PM) Online records show he was a registered Democrat. Law enforcement officials told ABC News that Mateen had been “on the radar” of U.S. authorities for a while, but that he was not the target of an investigation. Political correctness has to leave this country. What would happen if a neighbor had targeted the shooter and called the cops on him suspecting him of future troublemaking. The cops would be so scared to do anything. You can't target and harass someone you know. What if you were in the club and saw this motherf***er looking suspicious. You couldn't do anything lest you be described as intolerant of minorities. or a basher of minorities. What if you were in a church and some guy wearing a turban walked in with a machine gun and you tackled him after he waved it in the air? What if it turned out the gun was empty and he was playing a joke? You'd be arrested for targeting a minority. Political correctness must go. God bless Obama for his words today. Sadness for the victims. Sadness for Americans who are so numb to these things they immediately look to political ramifications and can't even emphasize with the victims.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 11:07 PM) Tmrw's game has a lot riding on it. To we fans it does, nobody on the White Sox side of the field. The Royals get up for the Sox and the Sox are too cool to get "up" for anybody. Sox get mauled Sunday to drop to 2-7 on the season to KC.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jun 12, 2016 -> 02:30 AM) Mr. Hockey Gordie Howe passed away yesterday. Age 88. Rest in peace, Gordie Howe. One of the true stars and true phenoms in hockey. In fact, likely the GREATEST of all time. Gretzky I guess was better and Bobby Hull was right up there. I enjoy reading and hearing the stories. The story Stan Mikita recalled several years ago was amazing. When he was a rookie he accidentally cut Howe with his stick blade and Howe said something to him and Mikita told him he was an old has-been and to f*** off. In the locker room, a former Howe teammate with the Blackhawks told Mikita, "You probably shouldn't have done that." Mikita said: "I didn't mean to cut him." The teammate said, "No I mean you probably shouldnt have said that stuff to him." Howe had a ways of getting even so months later in a game Mikita was skating near mid ice and the next thing he remembers is sitting on the Red Wings bench. They kick him off the bench and he goes to the Hawks bench disoriented. Mikita doesn't know if Howe elbowed him or punched him and nobody else does either. Nobody saw whatever happened, but Howe clocked him. Mikita laughed about it in telling the story. Of course this story now is not so funny as when Mikita related it as Mikita apparently has dementia and no recollection of his being a hockey player at all. Very sad.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 06:44 PM) Christina Grimmie of The Voice and YouTube fame got shot and killed after her concert last night. She was only 22. Sad stuff. This is just horrible! Thank you to the brother of the shooter who tackled him before he could kill others. f***ing loser gunman. These incidents are just heartbreaking. Can you imagine how on top of the world this 22 year old singer was after winning the Voice and getting her career started? Then some dumbf*** is probably jealous that he's such a loser and f***ing kills her.

Hopefully ABC will keep pushing it since they got the scoop. THEY WERE GOING TO ARREST THE REPORTER FOR ASKING QUESTIONS!!! You think Trump is dangerous? What about Hillary?? She is dangerous to our freedoms as well.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 11, 2016 -> 06:06 AM) http://www.kake.com/story/32193712/poll-ka...-many-undecided Clinton leads 43-36 in Kansas according to this poll. Now, I'll be shocked if it turns blue, but it's still amazing you could find any sample of Kansas to break that way. That poll group has outed itself as being unreliable, then. This godforsaken state will NEVER again vote Democrat. These rubes re-elected Brownback!!! EVERYBODY hates Brownback, even the people who voted for him just cause he has R next to his name on the ballot. He'd win re-election tomorrow if he ran because these rubes can't vote for anybody but a Republican. There's no way this state will vote for Hillary. She'd be a fool to waste one moment campaigning anywhere near here. Not jumping on the messenger. It is interesting poll, but that poll is FLAWED obviously. p.s. During the governor election, one big newspaper out here had an editorial where the owner backed Brownback. I kid you not. The reasoning in the article backing Brownback was something like this, I paraphrase: "He didn't mean to do a poor job the first time around. Surely he'll do better for the people of Kansas during his next term." How do these people who punch R or D live with themselves? I told you, I'm an R but I voted for Obama. I get the feeling some of you will vote for Hillary only because of that D by her name. If so that is shameful. Hillary and Trump both suck equally. Vote for somebody else for gawdsakes people!
