NUKE_CLEVELAND

QUOTE(fathom @ May 21, 2006 -> 08:01 PM) He wouldn't have to miss a start at all. He could always say he wants to appeal it, and then after his start, just drop the appeal. After 5 games, he can then pitch again. No reason to worry about it. I have a bad feeling that AJP's going to get a few games....and that would be bull. I think AJ might get a fine at the very worst. Its pretty much universally agreed that it was a clean hit on Barrett and he didn't even retaliate after he got suckered. If anyone gets suspended its gonna be Anderson for sure.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 21, 2006 -> 08:00 PM) Well we all saw how well the team played in the games Jose missed. We also saw how well they played after he came out today too. I really feel bad for the Count.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 21, 2006 -> 07:58 PM) It's a lot easier for starting pitchers. You count thier off days as part of their suspension. Well if thats the case then he might miss a start. Not a HUGE deal but it still sucks.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 21, 2006 -> 07:55 PM) Barrett shouldn't appeal, he should feel lucky he only got 10 games. Mabry getting 3 makes me think Anderson will get 5 or 6, that should be all the punishment we get unless Jose was on the field. Yeah. I think Barrett will just suck it up and take his medicine. Mabry probably wont appeal since he only got 3. Im kinda worried about that whole Contreras thing though. Id hate to see him get suspended right after coming off the DL. If AJ gets any punishment at all I think he will appeal and probably win.

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ May 21, 2006 -> 06:11 PM) Franks is a thug and a de facto war criminal via the concepts of the Nuremburg Tribunals. So, I don't really give a flying f*** what the murderous bastard has to say. http://www.counterpunch.org/boyle05172003.html LOL! There ya go again citing bogus, leftist rants like this. People who write for sites like that think everyone who ever put on the uniform of the American military are war criminals.

QUOTE(Allsox @ May 21, 2006 -> 06:09 PM) Nuke, gotta say first you should be the only one to post White Sox Winner Threads cuz quite simply, you da man! But today was the only day I can remember Juan making an error that cost some runs this yr. What other games has he played lazy defense? There have been some other stinkers he's had but we were fortunate that they didn't bite us in the ass. Like I said. Im not ripping Uribe.......yet..........but he needs to get his act together.

QUOTE(Allsox @ May 21, 2006 -> 06:03 PM) I'm so disappointed in Sox fans with this thread. Uribe makes one bad play today and all of a sudden, he sucks now?!?!? I didn't think people needed a reminder of how clutch this guy was in the World Series but since it's the stupid Cubs series, I guess some people still invest more emotion in it and that's pretty sad I never said Uribe sucks but even you have to agree that he needs to get his act together. He's been nothing short of brutal at the plate and his defense is not what it was last season.

QUOTE(rangercal @ May 21, 2006 -> 05:47 PM) Nuke will Boo from his laptop. I will actually be at the game. Not all of us live in Chicago. Much as I dislike the big skirt he's simply not worth dropping everything and driving 8 hours to Chicago just to boo his sorry ass.

QUOTE(sircaffey @ May 21, 2006 -> 05:48 PM) Why has it taken so long for Uribe to realize he sucks? Baseball is a game of adjustments, right? I'm baffled as to why he hasn't at least tinkered with his offensive approach. Hideous approach... Agreed. He still has that same "swing so hard I spin around and drill my way to China" approach to his offensive game. Would it kill ya, Juan, to shorten your swing up just a little bit?

QUOTE(fathom @ May 21, 2006 -> 04:32 PM) Like stories about Carl Yaz or Jim Rice? LOL!

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 21, 2006 -> 04:32 PM) It should be Cintron's job right now. Ozuna will start getting some starts too. Yeah. Uribe better shape up or he might be riding the pine here pretty soon.

QUOTE(3E8 @ May 21, 2006 -> 04:26 PM) I for one would like to see Bobby Jenks in the 1976 doubleheader uniform... You might have to sew 2 of em together to make it fit.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 21, 2006 -> 04:20 PM) Never said there was....just that it's funny Hawk waited until that point of the game to do it. He just had more important things on his mind than what the Sun Times's week-old douchebag Moronatti had to say.

I was against him hitting #2 from the time it was first mentioned and its obvious that he's not capable of holding that slot. He really needs some work to get himself on track because right now he's a serious offensive liability.

QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ May 21, 2006 -> 04:17 PM) I never liked throw back uniforms. Let's just stick to the present day uniforms. I think its a cool thing to do every so often.

QUOTE(CrimsonWeltall @ May 21, 2006 -> 01:00 PM) I don't have a problem with this in the sense that it was student-led prayer, but the fact that they made such a spectacle of it (standing up, probably saying it really loudly) AND they booed the kid makes me think they are just being asshats. The asshat is the one douche who tried to spoil the ceremony for everyone else. Nobody was going to force him to say any prayers, nobody was going to force him to get on his knees and pray. He tried to mess things up for everyone else and he got it right back in his face. There is justice in this world. QUOTE(santo=dorf @ May 21, 2006 -> 12:59 PM) I would love to see your reaction if a Public school held a Muslim prayer before a graduation. I bet if the ACLU blocked it you'd say "For once I agree with the ACLU keeping that violent religion out of our schools." If most of the kids in the school were muslim and they weren't advocating jihad or some nonsense like that I wouldn't care. Free expression of religon works for everybody.

Its over and done with. Lets concentrate on whooping Oakland tomorrow.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 21, 2006 -> 03:42 PM) I'd just suggest that the people that feel the need to boo to not show or not do anything at all when he was up to bat. They'll just look as stupid as they perceive Frank to be, if they do otherwise. For all the bulls*** he's been involved with the last few years he deserves it.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 21, 2006 -> 03:35 PM) All I remember seeing is Frank saying he didn't get along w/ KW. I'll give you that Frank said the wrong things at times. However, Frank's the greatest player to ever wear the White Sox uniform. You'll look exactly as you perceive Frank, if you were to boo him. You have a short memory then since he ripped the organization for choosing Thome over him in the off season. If he was the class act you say he is then he would have realized that he didn't have it anymore and stepped aside gracefully.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ May 21, 2006 -> 03:31 PM) Are you guys really serious about this "embarrassing" bulls***? Holy hell, get over yourselves. Upsetting, yes. But embarrassing? It is pretty embarrassing really. We made a lot of mistakes and its about to cost us a ball game. I'll forget all about it tomorrow though when we spank Oakland.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 21, 2006 -> 03:24 PM) For the few that feel the need to boo Frank, what'd you think of Thome's return to Cleveland? I don't know about you, but I don't want to be grouped in the same circle as those Cleveland fans. That was completely classless. Difference between Thome and Thomas. Thome didn't rip his organization and he didn't constantly whine to the media about money. Thome is a class act and an outstanding ball player. Big Skirt is a washed up, loudmouthed jackass who can't do anything but run his damn mouth anymore. Shoulda hung it up 2 years ago.

QUOTE(SouthsideNorthsideFan @ May 21, 2006 -> 02:58 PM) to this point, LOCKED. Not no more.

Thanks a lot Uribe you f***ing dolt! Way to f*** the game up for us.

Said that Moranatti had a "senseless, inane column". LMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GO HAWK!!!!!!!!
