Real simple: where's the passion and intensity on this team? BTW...that was exactly what I wrote last night. We now have Hawk, DJ, and Ed Farmer saying this team is flatter than Nicole Richie.

Can we trade for Juan Pierre and put him in LF?

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:34 AM) Almost 85% of what I type is a joke..isn't that terribly obvious? I was hopeful it was a joke, but after the last 36 hours or so on this site, I don't know what to believe is true or not.

Hawk with some very cryptic remarks about the Tigers playing with intensity.

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:32 AM) The result of this skirmish was decided as soon as the umpiring once again became more important than the game itself. Please...please...please tell me this is a joke?

QUOTE(GOD @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:31 AM) who cares they'll just catch us tommorow Better to be 1/2 game up than 1/2 game down.

I've love to see: LF- Gload 2b- Iguchi RF- Dye DH- Thome 1b- PK C- AJP 3b- Crede SS- Cintron CF- Anderson

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:28 AM) If Ozzie is a member, he's 1 of the 2. Ozzie's not a member. He called someone a derogatory name, and he got banned.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:28 AM) Thank God McCarthy isnt using this talent anywhere near the rotation. Obviously our starting crew is light years above this kid. Maybe some day he can learn to throw 86 mph fastballs like 2/5s of our starters. /sarcasm Will someone please send him to the Javier Vazquez Charity Golf Outing so that he can mingle with Ozzie?

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:26 AM) I'd bet my membership on the site that Gload won't get a chance everyday in LF. I think I can safely say that 98 out of 100 members on this board would rather see Gload at the plate than Pods (you know who you two are!).

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:26 AM) Logic is overrated... Truly, what is the odds that Ozzie actually plays G-load tomorrow? We'll bench PK tomorrow, and play Gload at 1b.

Isn't it nice to see a pitcher keep the hitters off-balanced by going in and out on the hitter?

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:23 AM) I am waiting for the opposition to put 3 guys on the left side, then Konerko hits 216 for a season. f***, now we use Bmac. I said this earlier, but this was as awful an approach by our entire team as I've ever seen.

McCarthy's in...super! So we let the long reliever go 1 inning, and the short reliever with a history of arm issues go 2 innings? Interesting handling of the bullpen. HOWEVER....this game could be huge for the rest of the season if it signifies that Gload is going to get a chance in LF.

Dye needs to be moved into the 3rd spot in the order now! It's broke Ozzie...FIX IT!

Sit down Paul. Nice focus at the plate lately.

I've seen enough of Gload this inning to name him my LF for the rest of the season.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:18 AM) I didn't see the AB. How did Gload get on? Boy, would I love Thome to lay a bunt down the third base line. It'd be pretty much a guarantee to be a hit, and it would probably excite the team a little bit. Bring a little life to a dead ballclub. Gload just glided a changeup in between the hole of Inge/Guillen. Guillen tried to barehand it, but he had no play.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:16 AM) Wow -- how far has Scott Podsednik fallen? Ozzie chooses Gload over him in a PH situation against a righty. I wish Gload would get a chance to win the starting LF spot. He sucks in the OF...but so does Pods. It's amazing how many infield hits Gload seems to get. He has more this year than Pods does in probably 20 pct of the ABs.

QUOTE(cgaudin @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:14 AM) You mean another Brian Anderson....but one who can hit, of course. You do know he batted .224 with 128 Ks in 366 ABs in AA?

At least Garcia is on the mound tomorrow.

QUOTE(SoxFan562004 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:10 AM) I don't have the heart to look at the Minn score, anyone know? They should be getting into the awesome O's pen right now They're getting beat 6-1 right now.

QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:08 AM) Clevelen is going to kill us for the next 10 years if the Tigers are smart. He is one hell of a player. Perfect man for CF in Comerica. Why's that? He's not a big prospect, and is known more for his defense than his offense.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Aug 23, 2006 -> 01:07 AM) How the f*** did Konerko not score on Brian Anderson's single up the middle? I didn't see the AB, but Crede was ahead in the count and popped out? WTF? He had no chance. Clevelen has a great arm out there.

This is advice that I should follow more. As soon as the game is over tonight, leave this site for the rest of the night, and find something completely non-Sox related to do. No amount of complaining by us is going to chance anything right now.
