QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:25 AM) Come on. It was obvious he was trying to challenge him, not rip him. If Javy can't respond in this situation, he's worthless. It was just a no win situation for anyone. There's a reason you don't see other coaches/managers do something like that.

I don't care if we lose this game. However, the Twins are completely setting the table for just a monster series. The Sox seem defeated the second they step onto this field. Go Royals this weekend!

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:22 AM) Ozzie is correct once again. Yep, and he proved what by saying that? Now, all he's done is make everyone hate Vazquez even more. Just a completely irresponsible thing for him to do yesterday.

To hell with Ozzie Guillen. He made the choice to have a pitcher he can't trust start in this series, and he's the dumbass that continues to play Griffey. His managing down the stretch has been absolutely pathetic.

QUOTE (DABearSoX @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:20 AM) Nope..... honestly though...this thread is more depressing group therapy

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:18 AM) Javy Vazquez is an overrated, overpaid loser. Trade him to Pittsburgh or KC and he'll get Cy Young votes. You're the best with this. You know he'll rebound here and strike out 8 batters or so.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:19 AM) That is our only chance. Javy has a no trade, right? I think he would waive it to join Minaya, and that is it. Javy will be traded this offseason, no doubt about it.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:18 AM) I know exactly what you mean. I don't really like 'em. Not when when we have a bunch of old, ancient under-achievers starting...and guys like Swisher who were supposed to help have their head so far up their ass...and then depending on the nutless wonder Javy. I thought of this when seeing the lineups today....our big acquisition this offseason is so f***ing bad, he can't even start one of the biggest games of the decade for the Sox.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:18 AM) AND THIS SEASON IS OVAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Not even close

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 02:17 AM) Honestly. Is anyone surprised? Not in the slightest...I'm just praying for one f***ing win this series. The sad thing is that one win will surprise me more than if the Sox got swept.

Like usual, Gardenhire is bending Ozzie over and raping him.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:13 AM) Let's face it guys. Our season most likely will come to a close on Thursday night, and we watched all year, had ALL OF THESE chances to extend the lead in September and couldn't do it. This was our worst match-up, as Javy is a loser. Even if we get swept, we still can make the playoffs.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:14 AM) If we blow this, they can wipe the entire managerial and coaching staff and start over. Pathetic. We can only dream.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:13 AM) You know, reading these boards and writing on them, I've come to the conclusion that we don't really like this White Sox team all that much. I mean, we love them, but we don't really like them. Know what I mean? I don't find this team nearly as enjoyable to watch as the 2005 team, and I liked the 2006 team more as well. The fundamentals on this team just suck, and there's just no energy out there.

Nice speed by Jermaine...this game's over.

f*** you Ozzie...f*** you!

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 02:11 AM) Either pulling off the ball or jamming ourselves, I like our chances tonight I'm to the point where I think we'd have a better chance to string together hits if Phillips was catching, Owens was in LF, and Anderson was in RF. It's too bad Getz isn't around to play 3rd base.

This offense f***ing blows.

Some real nice swings by the Sox so far. Only one hard hit ball....I know 3-1 92 mph fastballs are tough to hit.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 02:06 AM) WTF, DJ saying that Jermaine has something on his mind. Huh? Yes, golfing in Arizona

Hawk is going to be absolutely psychotic by Thursday. He's already extremely pessimistic about the Sox, you can tell.

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 02:04 AM) those chanting MVP for Morneau are the same idiots in Minny that were chanting Palin like she s done something in her life Why, a strong week for him, and he could easily win it?

Prediction: there will be a premature "stretch" this inning.

Vazquez had much better command of his offspeed pitches that inning.

QUOTE (BlackBetsy @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 01:00 AM) It was great how we beat the Yankees on pitch count when Hughes was in there. Awesome. Except the Yanks have that Joba character.
