QUOTE(bighurt4444 @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 01:07 PM) The pressure of course will be on in the playoffs. But what I'm saying now is that it is more of a "we can't lose because everyone will remember us as chokers" pressure. If they get into the playoffs, the pressure is there to win, but if they don't win, the consequences won't be as long standing. Only one team can win the World Series every year, so 7 teams lose in the playoffs every single year. But nobody has ever choked away a 15 game division lead before. These are two different types of pressure in my opinion. If they can hold on to win the division, I think we'll see the Sox loosen back up and win at least one series in the playoffs. yeas i totally agree, my point is that if we make it in and we lose the first playoff game the pressure will be right back on the team, more so than other teams.

while i agree that winning the division may eliminate this "choking" burden, they better win the first game of the the first round or else the pressure is right back on them.

at this point in this season all that matters is did we win or did we lose? kinda simple isn't it.

amen, nice post. it makes me sad more than angry that this organization can't see it's own faults and do something to change their ways.

horrible, i am lost for words with this garbage baseball we've been playing....just like 2000.

12-16 for the month of august....yikes.

if our players think like this then they will get no-hit. we need a better attitude than this to continue to surprise everybody this year and take it all.

HDtv says that they are on but no i think it's blocked out cause I live so close...(I live in freaking Indianapolis!!!!) anywho go SOX way to light them up early!!!!

who cares if we draw 2 fans, if we win the world series that's all that matters.

QUOTE(Stocking @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 10:00 AM) awesome post jim. yes, awesome post.

safari was doing the same about an hour ago, all the fonts were smaller as well. Glad it seems to be working now, at least for me with Safari.

too funny!!!!

I'll add another W to my White Sox calendar while all the Scrubs fans here at work can add another L to theirs!!!!! GO SOX keep going and don't look back!!!

pretty good read. AS all of us, I would be psyched if the changes this off-season = number 10(ws win), but i still believe we are 1 season away from that, a nice showing in the playoffs will make me happy, but don't get me wrong a ws championship is always the goal.

none-Safari rules, haven't had a pop up since I started using it when it came out.

fake, the guy in the car yells too quickly.

that iChoke image is great!!! I am soooo glad the BoSox did it, the best part was the yankees being asked what happened after the game......

I've always stayed away from the basic beers, I like looking fo the beers that have some taste to them and give you a buzz, I mean I'll drink one really tasty potent beer as opposed to 5 coors lights and piss most of that out. I have to admit i started with the typical american beers and never really liked them, then once i reached the legal drinking age, i would try new beers at the bars. My favorite local pub back in PA has this drinking list where you drink 60 different beers from around the world and receive a nice pewter mug to use when you go there or bring it home if you like. Some favorites of mine are of course Guinness, Chimay, Heifweisan(sp?) Stille Nacht, most Rogue's, Anderson Valley Oatmeal stout, Weyerbacher Blithering idiot, now i am thirsty for a good beer.....I could go on and on, my point is try some different beers you might be surprised that you like some of them, and they don't all taste like Bud("wifebeater")

The Mars Volta have Cedric(singer of ATDI) and Omar (guitarist of ATDI). I think Sparta can't even compare to The Mars Volta, their cd De-Loused in the Comatorium will take a few listens to before you actually can take it all in but once you do, you'll probably never stop listening to it. check it out and what a great live show, a new album, called Frances the Mute should be out soon as well.

Queens of the Stone Age "You Can't Quit Me Baby" It’s a mistake, but who knows Followed you home Crawled in your window This life is a trip When you’re psycho in love And I know Followed your friends You were not there Slashed and I cut I bled in the sink Heard what you said and You’re laughing baby Slashed and I cut And I do it for you I want you to notice When I’m not around Wherever you are You’re solid gold I’ll see you in hell

The Mars Volta Take the Veil Cerpin Taxt You must have been phlegmatic in stature The gates of thanos are a spread eagle wide You let the shutters make sackcloth and ashes Out of a blind mans picaresque heart You take the veil You'll take the dive You take the veil It's not over till the tremulant sings These ides of march Are they so make believe How tempts the revenant Slice up and not across You take the veil You'll take the dive You take the veil A mass of gallon sloth As flys have walls for feet A rapturous verbatim-someone said but who is to know And when you find the fringe The one last hit that spent you You'll find the ossuary spilling by the day The iconoclastic had it coming for years They know the prisons that you have yet to fear Where thumbs hide inside of sleepingbag mouths Adlib your memoires by casting a drought You take the veil You'll take the dive You take the veil A mass of gallon sloth As flys have walls for feet A rapturous verbatim-someone said but who is to know And when you find the fringe The one last hit that spent you You'll find the ossuary spilling by the day Knife me in -hobbeling Talking in it's sleep again Knife me in-hobbeling Talking in it's sleep again Virulent hives- of bedpost piles Virulent hives Who brought me here Forsaken,depraved and wrought with fear Who turned it off The last thing I remember now Who brought me here Forsaken,depraved and wrought with fear Who turned it off The last thing I remember now Who brought me here
