QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 02:38 PM) just did it. I like how the logo shudders when the vomit hits it.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 02:32 PM) just deleted it. Can i keep the the puking on the Twins logo please? You could put the "puke" & twins logo down to the right of the Bulls flag. That would shrink it down considerably.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 02:29 PM) I drafted Shingo, AJ, and Buehrle. Shingo has actually been ok for me because he got 8 Saves. I got Hermy and put him as a Starter because he can be used in any role. I kept all the Sox players. I'm banking on Shingo turning it around. Josh, as much as I love that DJ "Uhoh!" that I made... Maybe you should streamline your sig area a bit. How about just the sig and the flags?

It looks to me like a reporter threw loaded questions at Nevin and Thomas. What were they supposed to say to those questions that would keep them out of the paper somewhere and off of bulletin boards?

So, then, why hasn't Herm Schneider hasn't stepped in and told Ozzie to shut Hermanson down for 15 days? Certainly they all know that there are 100+ games left in the season and that the Sox need everyone healthy to compete. If it was Hermanson's back and he needed rest, Ozzie wouldn't be throwing him out there.. would he?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 02:02 PM) Bad back is still bugging him. Next question. Yes, Right here. I have a question. Is there any truth to the rumor going around that says that you "know everything"?

Let's take the series...!

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 04:21 AM) Your favorite I hear. You know, DBAH0... I bet us Soxtalk members could pool some fundage to get you a plane ticket to Chicago from Phoenix; so that you could see a game.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 04:44 AM) Once again, I would just like to voice the fact that I am the ORIGINAL Neal Cotts backer, no matter what others may say. (And that means you Qwerty) QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 04:51 AM) For some reason, I sense a differing of opinions between you two.

There has GOT to be a ceiling on salaries down the line. Even an upper deck seat could be $50+ some day. Then, very few people will be able to go to games.

Mystery solved, then. On to the next thread.

RECENTLY Hermanson has pitched questionably. Only in his last few times in has it started to show. Honestly, I believe that he has a tired arm/tendonitis. In my opinon, and my opinion only; Hermanson should not have pitched tonight. I had that opinion BEFORE he pitched tonight, due to watching him pitch in the last week or so. He is missing something right now that he had earlier in the year. What it is... I don't know. Shingo got over being removed as closer, so will Hermy IF it ever happens. This is about winning, NOT stroking egos. Cotts is hot right now, I say let him have a shot at it the next time that there is a save opportunity.

Pujols might get $27 million, but I don't know if it will be from StL.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 01:43 AM) We have enough jackasses taking home run swings already. How about a guy who can hit, put the ball in play, and has a level swing. I would rather have a line drive hitter now than any amount of home run hitters we could get. WHEN WILL URIBE, KONERKO, AND CRUDDY LEARN TO MAKE CONSTANT CONTACT. THIS PULL BASEBALL s*** IS DRIVING ME CRAZY. 8.5 MILLION FOR A 1 TOOL PLAYER. PUT ROSS GLOAD IN TONIGHTS GAME. AND I THINK HE MAKES CONTACT. THE OBGLIGATORY SINGLE UP THE MIDDLE IN THE LATE INNINGS AFTER CHOKING A FEW TIMES EARLIER IS VERY TIMOESQUE. URIBE, SOMEONE NAIL HIS FRONT FOOT DOWN AND TELL HIM KNEELING WHEN YOU HIT DOESNT HELP CRUDDY, TRADE HIM NOW, I DONT CARE HOW MANY HOME RUNS HE HITS, AND HOW GREAT HIS DEFENSE IS. HE CANNOT HIT, 1400ABS IN THE MAJORS. THE EXPERIMENT IS OVER. GET A 3RD BASEMAN THAT MAKES CONTACT AND DOESNT GET FOOLED BY CURVES LIKE 12 YEAR OLD.

QUOTE(chisoxfan79 @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 01:37 AM) You must be talking about Joey Cora. Um.. you might want to click "close all tags" before you send your post.

QUOTE(chisoxfan79 @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 01:32 AM) They need a guy that is a home run threat off the bench from the right side. Yup... Crede.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 01:23 AM) I still think a great acquisition we could have made for a back-up 1B/power hitter off the bench would have been for Eli Marrero. Of course, that would mean that Ozzie/KW would have had to give up Timo probably. Marrero just got traded. To Baltimore, I believe.

You look back at his posts... They are a virtual fount of positivity.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 12:52 AM) I'll admit an astonishing thing that happened tonight.....I actually wanted Neal Cotts to come in to close the game in the 9th. Kudos to Cotts for his amazing improvements lately. ^^^^^^^^

QUOTE(mmmmmbeeer @ Jun 12, 2005 -> 12:38 AM) He's your closer and hasn't pitched but 1 inning since Tuesday. Can't fault Ozzie, you gotta give the game to your closer. Closer or not, Hermanson has shown marked losses in his pitch strength. Cooper has to have noticed.

2 things. #1 Konerko is slow; and he should have been pinch-run for. But, we don't have a backup 1b. Even if he WAS safe, Willie should have pinch-run and (gulp) Timo should have filled in at 1st in the 9th. #2 Hermanson has lost velocity the last few games. We've all noticed it, why hasn't Ozzie? I was talking about it with my dad while we were watchng the game. Politte should have started the ninth, then Cotts should have finished the game if necessary. Hermanson needed tonight off and Ozzie, with his blind faith, threw him back out there.
