QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 09:54 PM) I would have rather lost this game 15-0 then the way we lost it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Then people would be b****ing about our pitching along with our offense. Would any of you be willing to take this loss if it mean we won the series? Or would you rather have a no-hitter but lose two of 3?

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 09:45 PM) Matt Lawton, Eduardo Perez, Raul Ibanez <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Lawton .235/.257/.309 since joining the club. Ibanez and Perez are still with their teams, so how were they "realistically" attainable? How do you know KW didn't try to get these guys? Don't bother.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 09:41 PM) no, but sox can lose 6 out of 9, <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Based on what? A two week sample? Anybody want to tell me what Cleveland's record is against us this year?

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 09:33 PM) Part of me (the sick part) wants this team to blow the lead and not make the playoffs. Anyone else have this? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Umm, why? If we win in the playoffs I guarantee NOBODY will be talking about this game. Do you guys actually expact the Sox to keep losing 8 of 9 with Cleveland playing TB every night?

QUOTE(Ozzie Montana @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 09:25 PM) f***ing KW should od something. Overpay for Junior. This was your year to win it all. I hate this bulls***. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It takes two to make a trade. This isn't MVP baseball folks. :rolly

QUOTE(chisoxfan79 @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 08:57 PM) Which Twin breaks up the NO-NO? I predict a Lew Ford swinging bunt down 3rd base. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> :fyou :headshake

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 08:11 PM) *uribe wasn't even close to the bag right there <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They owe us for the Alex Cora f***up.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 22, 2005 -> 10:04 PM) wow, that's badass, where'd you get it? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Grandstand.

Got down here today. Be on the lookout for the jersey in my sig Thursday.

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 11:17 PM) PS... who gave ESPN the right to only ask favorite Cub player of all time? That's pretty stupid. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> How about it? ! Last time I voted, Santo was in last.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Aug 21, 2005 -> 08:27 PM) That jersey's kickass santo, is that what they're wearing next month? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yeah. 9/9 is Halfway to St. Patrick Day (well the game at least.) Here's the front.

The only probelm I have with Hawk is taking any of our current players over any other MLB player. :rolly

This team needs a hitter, not a walker.

I'm not really a gambling man, but I wish I knew about this sote in the offseason. One site has us 25:1 to win the Pennant. I think that's worth putting $100 on.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 12:40 AM) There's been nothing that suggests the Reds will trade Griffey Jr. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Oh really? I could have sworn I read that KW and the Reds GM AGREED on the deal but the main Reds owner nixed it. There is also talk of how moving Griffey will affect the value of the franchise, which is up for sale. Nothing at all. I voted no just so I can be proven wrong.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 10:38 PM) On the whole? Yes, he did suck last year. In your certain situations, he didn't suck. But in all situations combined -- RISP, no RISP -- he had a 58 OPS+. Willie Harris, heck, had a 71 OPS+. Willie f***ing Harris. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Just curious, why do you continually use OPS+ to compare ALL players? Timo and Willie are obviously going to have smaller OPS+ than bigger guys like Carlos Lee or Matt Lecroy. Timo was brought back because Ozzie likes him and the stats show he was good in clutch situations. For a bench player, the batters should be well prepared for situations where there are runners in scoring position. Timo has no business starting, let alone leading off, and I would be shocked if he is brought back for 2006 (hell he could be gone if/when we get Griffey.) But then again Ozzie might want to bring him back if he comes up big in the playoffs. I highly doubt any of you would bash Timo's OPS+, EQA, or his playing time if he came up with a clutch hit in the playoffs. But I forgot, clutch hitting doesn't exsist. It just doesn't fit the model. I'm more pissed off at Konerko getting thrown out at second (yes it was a bad call, but he didn't run out of the box,) Contreras getting squeezed in the 4th and not being able to adjust or pitch over it (very similar to Garland a couple of years ago,) and I am so sick of seeing slow ass guys getting thrown out at f***ing home. Keep in mind, this is our third loss in a row. A new winning streak starts tomorrow.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Feb 11, 2005 -> 04:33 PM) Pierzynski hits 20+ homers, the starting rotation will combine for 1,000 IP, and since Borchard won't make the team, Garcia will be the team leader in strikeouts. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> AJ has 17 homers The Sox's Fab 5 currently have 735 IP Freddy Leads the team with 114 K's.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 01:13 PM) I know people have pointed to a few different things to say it was fake. Besides the flag blowing, what were the other supposed inconsistencies ( <{POST_SNAPBACK}> People claim there are prop markings on certain rocks, a picture of the astronauts looking disgraced in front of Richard Nixon for "waht they did," and that there are no stars in the sky when the pictures are taken.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 01:03 PM) I don't think they did. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> You should watch Penn and Teller: Bulls***! If it was faked, why the f*** would they use REAL astronauts instead of actors to do the lines and motion? If it was faked, don't you think they would have re-recorded Neal's f***up "One small step for (a) man. One giant leap for mankind?" It's one of my favorite shows.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:08 PM) Do you remember the stature of Borchy when the White Sox first signed him? LTP, Light Tower Power they called him. Images of the Natural. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> He wasn't called that until he hit a ST homer off of the light tower. QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:08 PM) With repsect to Linder I think we are looking at the objectivity of Disney & the Angels. They nixed a deal that would have given them both Garland & Lee because it did not include a marquee name. I think Linder is looking for a marquee name from the ml's. Borchy in his first year fit that bill. I don't know how many players there are like that today. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Wrong again. It was Garland and Chris Singleton.

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 02:40 AM) No one agrees with me on Karen Corr?????? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> She looks like Peggy Hill with a HUGE bust.

I still get chills everytime I hear the radio call of Paxson's 3 pointer in the 1993 finals. I kept listening to it the other day withmy Bulls Dynasty DVD. I also like "The Giants win the Pennant!"

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 14, 2005 -> 09:21 PM) As far as the reason for this thread....I highly doubt BRUUUUCE Levine has any news to report on the Griffey rumor. I've been listening to the Score for the past hour or so and they have nothing new to say. I doubt Bruce has some confidential news to share. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> They ran an interview between Griffey and Bruce earlier today on ESPN 1000.

QUOTE(SnB @ Aug 14, 2005 -> 09:19 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> That reminds me of the Pee Wee Herman talking doll. Everybody used to take his hand and pretend he was beating off.
