QUOTE(Mr. Showtime @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 09:11 PM) Well, you have bad cuts and scanlines, so good job. Ha thanks man. I spent hours on this one; I'm pretty proud of it.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 08:18 PM) The only probelm I have with Hawk is taking any of our current players over any other MLB player. :rolly That jersey's kickass santo, is that what they're wearing next month?

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 03:35 PM) Then stop watching, if you already know the outcome. Do us all a favor. Exactly! If you know that's how it's going to turn out, what are you still here for? We get it, you don't believe this team's doing anything. Stop watching/following the Sox for the season, if you KNOW that's how the season's going to play out.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 03:34 PM) For me, I still root for the White Sox. I watch them if they're 30 games up or 30 games below .500. I think a lot of people, like myself, are just livid with the attitude that this organization has had the last few weeks. I'm just tired of seeing their posts. If they believe it, fine, say it once, but once is plenty. Broken-record syndrome is very contagious here of late.

You didn't say it here, so this isn't directed at you fathom. However, for the people that already KNOW this team's done for the year or they're going to get swept in the 1st round, what are you still watching for?

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 02:35 PM) Man Soo Lee!!! Sounds good.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 02:33 PM) How many times can these guys try to pull the ball in clutch situations before Ozzie sits their ass on the bench? And have who bat (what an oxymoron)? Freddy G? Buehrle?

Congrats to Duque on earning the bonus. He deserves it. Maybe the rest of the guys on the team should pay Duque some too.

Duque kicked the bag f***in' blue.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 12:51 PM) What the hell does that mean? All I know is that if it was any pitcher against the Sox, I would have been calling for him to get ejected. He completely showed up the umpire there. It was Kerry Wood-esque. The way you put it, it's almost like you're bummed that it didn't happen.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 12:49 PM) Can El Duque bat clean up? He is the only player on the Sox with any balls. Ha I friggen' love him.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 12:48 PM) How did Duque not get tossed there? Because he wanted people to b**** about him not getting tossed, instead of people b****ing about him getting tossed.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 12:39 PM) BTW, Iguchi is now 5 for his last 34. Also, that Everett ball looked like it was fair. Anyone see a better angle? I wish they would, that definitely looked fair to me.

Solid 1st by the Duke. He deserves a win after everything he's done since his return from the DL. Get him one Sox!

QUOTE(TLAK @ Aug 20, 2005 -> 10:49 AM) Sox players are logging more innings that it seems. This is where the starts rank in the American League in innings played at his position. [DH is by games]. The outfielders are all lumped together so the rank is against 42 starting positons instead of 14 for everything else. Rank Player 17-- Podsednik 5--- Rowand 20-- Dye 7--- Crede 7--- Uribe 5--- Iguchi 3--- Konerko 3--- Pierzynski 4--- Everett They all play as many or more innings than the average American Leaguer at the same position. Good stat TLAK. So people should be less upset with Ozzie and more with our options on the bench. Ozzie isn't doing anything out of the norm.

I have to say I haven't had as much fun watching this team the past few days, but we're some ridiculous people......

Have a good one man!

I got to steal some of Cheat's thunder.... JC: Where would he play Brian? BF: Well he could DH, play the OF. JC: But what about Carl? You can't forget Carl.

If anyone could possibly hit a HR with these, he's our man. Frank needs to be the Sox' Kirk Gibson for the rest of the year.....
