NUKE_CLEVELAND

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 1, 2005 -> 02:07 AM) I don't want to say too much, because I'm really f***ing disgusted with some of these so f***ing called Sox fans. But the god damn game isn't over in the 6th inning. Of course we're gonna get upset when we're not scoring runs. It's frustrating and sometimes people gotta vent that's all.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ May 1, 2005 -> 02:09 AM) Time for the Sox to win the series. Let's hope Garland can keep doing what he's been doing, and the offense can actually put some runs on the board (I'm looking your way Carl and Paulie). KONG especially. It seems like it's always feast of famine with him. This is a contract year for him so maybe it'd help his cause if he'd start playing like it.

Garland is our hottest pitcher so I like our chances..... GO SOX!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 08:04 PM) I almost turned off the game after Pauly lined into that double play. I swore the game was over at that point. If that ball is a foot either way, this game gets blown open. And with the way we had been playing, I would have never guessed we would string that many big hits together. To the Clutch Sox Its all about the GOOCH!!! He's our version of Ichiro.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 08:04 PM) Great game Gooch. Also awesome work Duque keeping us in it the whole way. Fantastic pen work from Politte, Marte, and Hermanson. SOX WIN Gooch is holding it together for us right now. He's a machine up there.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 08:01 PM) this win was awesome......only complaint was getting the bases loaded with no outs and not scoring.... f*** it.....who cares. We managed to break iout of it and put together a big inning when we needed it. I'll take it.

GIMMIE A HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

GOOCH GETS IT DONE!!!!!!!! WE'RE WINNING NOW!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:49 PM) NUKE, I was agreeing with you. I was sick of hearing the "experts" and some posters here whine about our team OBP and our ability to draw walks while we were on an 8 game win streak. "Don't tell me what you hit, tell when you hit." I'm a little slow tonight. THat's what happens when you start off on the JD a little too early. Its all good.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:45 PM) Lets see he hit that double pretty hard whether it should have been caught or not, he just missed hitting a ball out to left field, and that comebacker he hit to farnsworth was hit real hard. 1. Got a hit cause the outfielder screwed up. 2. Warning track power is no good unless there's a man on 3rd with less than 2 out. 3. I dont care how hard he hit it.........a comebacker is a comebacker.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:35 PM) Oil fell a couple of weeks ago and then the price rebounded to the upper 50's so I'm cautiously optimistic at best here Right now the deck is stacked against oil moving back to the highs. Oil inventories are rising faster than analysts are expecting, the world situation is relatively quiet, and high prices are starting to crimp demand. All of this could change in the blink of an eye but for now the situation seems to favor prices heading lower.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:31 PM) We had 10 walks last night. I'd rather go back to no walks and the clutch hit than that crap we saw last night :puke My mistake. Just goes to solidify my point even further.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:27 PM) The amount of oil in the region, Nuke. The amount that could be harnessed in production. As Laurent Murawiec, the ex-LaRouche cultist who famously briefed the Pentagon Policy Board at Richard Perle's invitation, put it: "Iraq is the tactical pivot, Saudi Arabia the strategic pivot, Egypt the prize." Saddam Hussein knew that. Good thing we stopped him.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:26 PM) He has done poorly recently, but Ozzie should wisely select the games he benches Dye. Today is not one of them. Poorly is not the word for it. This guy's performance is more like FUGLY to me. Calling him an automatic out is being overly generous to them.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 11:30 AM) Team OBP and drawing Walks. /that is all. We walked 7 times last night, several of which were lead off walks. Obp and drawing walks means nothing at all if you can't get the clutch hit. The stat that really bothers me about this team is average with RISP.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 04:10 PM) Willie's still in the lineup, Jermaine swings the bat pretty well last night and gets put on the bench tonight: lf pods 2b iguchi dh everett 1b konerko rf perez cf rowand c pierzynski 3b crede ss harris Swinging the bat well? He had 1 hit and it should have been caught. How many rallies does Dead have to kill before people stop defending him?

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 12:22 AM) Neyer has done that, though. He admitted to forgetting about Dye as a Sox acquisition this past offseason. Sure, he blame his source, but accepted responsibility for not verifying. I wish I could forget that we picked up Dead boy this offseason but every game he reminds me, rather painfully, with another rally killed.

QUOTE(CubKilla @ Apr 30, 2005 -> 09:49 AM) Maybe the crash is due to the US finally being ready to pump, refine, and sell all that oil the US got when the "Bushies" invaded Iraq That's what I never understood about the whole "war for oil" argument. Iraq produces, on its best day, about 2 million barrels of oil. That's peanuts compared to nations like Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and even Iran. If you really wanted to talk about a war for oil the correct place to look was the first Gulf War and that's because Saddam Hussein was poised to sieze most of it in the gulf region.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 10:44 PM) This is the lineup I'd like to see: Lf- Pods 2b- Iguchi DH- Everett 1b- PK RF- Gload CF- Rowand C- A.J. 3b- Crede SS- Harris (kudos to his performance in the field tonight) Agreed. Let Dead boy ride the pine. He's killed too many rallies to be playing every day.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 08:45 PM) It has kind of got a ring to it. Also, Is there any catchy name to go along with lows in OF fielding percentage? More like "The Flat Line" or "The Dead line"

For those that were in chat tonight.......... TYPE HERE!!!!!!

Corpseball lives on What the motherf***?!

Shingo f***ing sucks yet again. We suck balls tonight.

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Apr 29, 2005 -> 09:56 PM) Man we are a sad bunch....literally begging for one run How the fock will we score against ace pitchers if we get to the playoffs We always score on the aces. Its the s***bags that give us fits all the time.
