NUKE_CLEVELAND

QUOTE(The Critic @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 06:12 AM) PLUS, he's insane, angry and vocal!!! I LIKE IT!!!!!!!!!!! My kinda player!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(rangercal @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 06:52 AM) Yesterday when I went over to souvenier booths I noticed the main jerseys being featured were Pods, Rowand, Kong, and Mark B . Umm they are all white. It seems that our image since 2001 has been diverse, have been Frank (well duh) , CLee, Maggs, and Marky. Is this a coincidence. Or am I just over anaylyzing? It does not matter to me(mainly cause I am white). It was just an observation. I was just bringing it up because do you guys think it could effect our minority fanbase? Do you guys think Frank is still the face of the sox? I much prefer the all black jerseys to the white ones. Why? Cause I think they look better. Anyone who reads racial crap into this is WAY to sensitive.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 06:36 AM) Along with "pour me another one, I'm finished with the other one" LOL!!!!!! No more Jack Daniels for me tonight unless Crede Parks one. Then I'll do a shot. LOL!

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 10:16 PM) Pods arms is average at the best. He doesnt have the arm to play Centerfield. Hell if we gotta pick someone to ride the bench as of right now, my man is Jermaine Dye. He has shown me very little, and has had many 0-fer days already. Everett is not great in the outfield at all, but a guy who has a hot bat but average defense overrules decent defense but s***ty bat right now in our offense. Agreed. "Dye-ing for a hit" needs a little wake up call and free playing time isin't gonna get that done.

QUOTE(Capn12 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 11:27 PM) Well NUKE, 1 area of concern for me is STILL...1 freakin BB in 44 ABs....not good. Then again, no one on this team is taking walks right now. True......check out my sig now. As long as I'm home when Crede belts one I'll take a shot of Jack. If I'm away then I owe the boards 1.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 11:25 PM) Worst.Catchphrase.Evar. I can't help it. Some redneck at work was saying it all day and it got stuck in my head.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 10:47 PM) I can't believe he is actually taking pitches this year. He has stopped swinging at the first pitch every damn at bat. A little better but he has a lot to prove to me. I want to see his average get to and stay above .275 consistently before I soften my stance on him.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 06:07 PM) THe fact that he was total ass f***. Interesting choice of words there Jas. LOL!

DO IT!!!!!!! DO IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 09:41 PM) A blowout on our part would be nice once in a while. Agreed. I hate allm the damn drama every time out.

Marte needs to be the set up man for Hermey and Shingo needs to be back in the clubhouse serving up chop suey instead of serving gofer balls like he did again tonight.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 08:59 PM) Dare I say.....Is Crede coming around? Nah! Hell of a win. Contreras was damn lucky, too. He keeps this up and I'll have to stop calling him Cruddy. LOL I'll be happy to eat my words on that one.

QUOTE(ihatethecubs @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 08:57 PM) everett and crede were huge, im still worried bout shingo tho.... What's his ERA right now? Like 20 something?

QUOTE(RegionSox @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 08:59 PM) So far, Hermanson looks like they best player we picked up this offseason TOTALLY!!!!!!

Hermanson = MONEY!!! What an awesome pickup he was.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) Chop suey is Chinese, buddy. I dont care.

HR for them.... ITS CHOP SUEY ALL OVER AGAIN SHINGO SUCKS!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(ottawa_sox @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 08:16 PM) 2 run jack. After all the JD i'VE HAD TONIGHT ioD ONT wanna ever hear the word "JACK" again!!!!! Until this weekend anyway :banghead

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 08:09 PM) Our pitchers sure know when to walk em. We obviously dont want to win this motherf***ing game. We're walking, erroring and running ourselves right into second fucING PLACE. Oh.....When Crede went yard I did a 5 shot of Jack and its hitting me pretty hard right now. LOL;!!!!!!!!

HOW THE f*** ARE WE SUPPOSED TO WIN A f***ING BASEBALL GAME WHEN WE DO STUPID s*** LIKE THIS. HOW THE f*** DO WE WIN A BASEBALL GAME WHEN WE GIVE UP RUNS DOING STUPID s*** LIKE BALKING, WALKING AND THROWING THE BALL INTO CENTER FIELD!?!?! Why dont we just forfeit the f***ing game and save the fans the misery of watching s*** like this unfold????

QUOTE(TheBigHurt35 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) Of course, you forgot the part about France, Russia, and Germany lobbying the UN to allow an increase in Iraq's oil output from 700k to 2 million barrels/day and the name of the (Republican-controlled) country that opposed it. Yeah and all the while France and Russia were selling them weapons in direct violation of UN sanctions but since they opposed the war nobody calls em out on it. I guess they wanted Saddam to get some more cash so he could buy more hardware from them. :rolly Had it been the US selling them weapons all of you on the left would be jumping up and down and screaming for justice.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 12:36 PM) Lets go PODS!!! Just in time for the Twins. We're gonna need all hands on deck for these guys. Throw everything we've got at em and win 2 here.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 05:53 AM) Intresting.......We shall see how this plays out, im sure Frank will have something to say........ I think Ozzie shoulda kept his yap shut on this one. Frank knows that Oz is in charge, he knows that Oz isin't some guy who showed up in Chicago yesterday and know that Oz knows his stuff. There was no reason to say something that might provoke Frank, at least not in the media. This would have been much better kept behind a closed clubhouse door. I'm not a big backer of Thomas but Oz should have paid him a little more respect than that.

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 09:17 AM) Me too.. but I'd call them in and take care of business in private. I just don't see where any of those comments or meeting do anything for the game or the fans relationship with the players by being made public. Just something that's always gotten under my skin. He's probably just voicing the opinions already shared by the thousands of misguided souls that call themselves Spankee fans. Back on topic though. I personally have no issue with MB not getting that much play in the media. Better that the other teams dont see him coming.

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 09:12 AM) That's opinion.. but IMO, I don't ever think that whining to the media does any good. Makes him look like a baby, IMO. Like Steinbrenner issuing that statement this weekend about the Yankees sucking.. Umm.. hello.. maybe call your manager and players and tell them they are sucking to their face..? Look at it like this. If I was spending 200 million dollars on a team that was 4-8 I'd be a little pissed too.
