QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 08:40 AM) But we'll have won 2 WS games on the same day. Clearly trumping them. Unless we run into a fun extra inning game again...

QUOTE(joeynach @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 02:19 AM) So the question is if, hahaha, more like when we win, and well all go nuts is it cool for us to just grab the nearest gal (sox fan preferably) and just start kissing her. Reminds me of the celebration in NY after the Germans surrendered in WWII and the troops returned home, all the soldiers were just grabbing the nearest girl and planting a big wet one on her. So is that gonna fly for possibly the biggest celebration we have ever seen???? P.S. Keep in mind im thinking college bars here (purdue), Im only 21!! Can't find a girlfriend...eh?

QUOTE(rangercal @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 08:35 AM) you're right 98 yanks went 11-2 99 11-1 Yup, '98 Yanks were hacks.

QUOTE(mreye @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 08:05 AM) Did anyone else hear McCarver early in the game on a pitch that Oswalt bounced in front of the plate to Crede? It bounced and hit Ausmus in the glove near the strike zone. McCarver says, "Good pitch right there. Didn't get it because Ausmus couldn't hang on." I don't think he saw the bounce in the dirt 3 feet in front of the plate. That was a great call!!! I was laughing out loud about it. I'm pretty sure though that Roy was "off" last night because he was getting overly excited about the "servicing" that Joe and Tim were going to provide for him after the game.

QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 07:46 AM) Rumor is Sunday.. I'll let you know when I get some confirmation. Oh good...Sunday...when I have a family function. Goddamn PUMPKINFEST!!! I hate that damn thing!!!

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 07:46 AM) Garner gives me the creeps, but I don't see him throwing a chair as classless, just frustrated. I listed to some of his post game comments and he blamed his offense, not the umps or anything else so I imagine that was just pure frustration. He couldn't blame the ump s though, the calls all went his way last night, with the exception of a borderline ball call. But the home run??? No way anybody can talk about our calls, since none of them were a run, and their blown call WAS a run.

QUOTE(bighurt2719 @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 07:15 AM) blah blah blah. garner's a bum. i remember him whining and b****ing for the cameras when oswalt flat out beaned crede too. nobody likes a sore loser, garner! Isn't "beaning" a guy a hit to the head? Crede took it in the chest. Crede got REALLY pissed! LOL!!! Never seen that before, and then the benches looked ready to clear. Those are two teams FIGHTING big time!!! And the "b****ing" was he and Ozzie yelling at each other.

QUOTE(fathom @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 07:45 PM) I just hope Ozzie is aware that it's quite possible Garland will have to pitch on Sunday. Thus, absolutely no reason to keep him in this game for 7 or 8 innings if the Sox continue to trail in this game. Heck, I pull him NOW. He doesn't have his stuff. Take our chances with El Duque.

This is looking B*A*D!!! IF we lose this game...ugh...

Bad song. I guess you know you're in Texas when the friggin' American flag is covered in friggin' rinestones!!! LOL!!!

Hmmmm, we were much louder than this during the team intro's if I remember correctly. I thought they were LOUD down there. Does the roof do THAT much that it helps equal that place to other parks???

Just posting to say hopefully when I join back in, we will be talking about a possible sweep tomorrow. In the meantime, I will be running back and forth between the game and puking.

Just ate dinner...and I agree 100% Tex m'boy!!! Corn tortilla's SMOKE the flour ones!!! The key is that they need to be thrown into a pan and heated up nice so that they get a little crisp. Right out of the package, that texture is pure evil. In those regards, flour would win. I can grab a pack of the flour ones and just start eating. But heated up in a pan, then used...mmmmmm, those are damn fine critters!!!

I expect to be havign ulcer pains by the 5th...

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 02:26 PM) My favorite Kev bit was he had a caller on the phone and kept threatening to give out his phone number unless the kid did was Kev asked. Funny stuff. That whole group of Dahl, Mathews, Brandmeier, and (wasn't) Bob Stroud doing mid days was awesome. The Loop was always my favorite station. The Loop was the ONLY station that existed, IMO. No other station was as good as that, nor will one ever equal that station in those days.

How does Oswalt get most of his outs? Is he a strike-out pitcher or a fly or ground guy?

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 11:05 AM) True story. Dr. Falls in Lake Forest ... If nobodies around...does he make a sound???

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 01:58 PM) She also continues to refer to us as the White Stockings, who actually became the Chicago Cubs. :headshake But:

QUOTE(mreye @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 01:53 PM) Yeah, and Dan Patrick sucks because he's not rooting for us. I always liked that commercial he did where he is eating ribs and rubs the kids head! LOL!!! Funny stuff.

The National media hates us...by the way...

QUOTE(bighurt2719 @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 08:09 AM) these picks kinda make sense to me for most of the people, but damaso and iguchi are kinda strange...different strokes, different folks, i guess. Not really strange with Iguchi. He was about 15 when GnR broke big, and in Japan Glam and RnR of that sort are HUGE. It actually makes a TON of sense to me. I'm thrilled to see he is into them and leads me to wonder if he is a fan of one of my favorite bands out of Japan named Ziggy.

I'm kind of proud that my Journey thread got 4 pages. I was expecting a rash of "NO!"'s with the exception of the few and then death. But nope, here we all are having a fine discussion on the band. See, Journey brings out the best in everybody.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 12:54 PM) Man I love watching Benny Hill reruns!!! Its on everyday from 6-7pm on BBCAmerica DirecTV channel 264!!! Really??? I did not know that!!! I guess I miss the pre-game tonight now!!! LOL!!!

Janet...she's Michael's sister...you can call her Ms. Jackson...if you're nasty...

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 12:16 PM) I'd still take Kevin Matthews over Johnny B. BOOOOOOoooooooo!!! Kevin was GREAT around '89-'92 but then started getting old REAL fast. But when Jim was going for his drivers licence that one time and crashed into the building, man, that was good stuff! Heeeey buuuddy...
