fathom

QUOTE(tony72 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:21 PM) I am so tired of seeing Carl swing at ball four...he can be a very selfish hitter.. He just needs to go this offseason. I appreciate his hustle, but he's just not a good overall player.

QUOTE(downstairs @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:21 PM) Yep. He's getting pathetic. "You had two calls, and you blew them both". Ummm.... hows about Paule goes ahead and jacks that questionable pitch into the stands, rather than letting the ump decide?? Or lays off two sliders well outside. With this umpire's small strike zone, we could have easily had our first 4 batters reach base.

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:20 PM) no no 2 awful calls. god hates us right now. Yes, it's really hard right now. At least there's soxtalk to talk and rant about stuff with other fans.

alert! alert! Full Hawk meltdown is possible today. Have your tape recorders ready, because there's going to be some memorable quotes.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:18 PM) Well Hawk is blaming the collapse on that call now. Haha, I was going to start a thread with only updated Hawk quotes for the rest of the season.

Cleveland's winning 8-0. It must be fun to be a fan of theirs right now.

QUOTE(Sox Hustler @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:16 PM) That still doesn't make our situation better. To me, that would mean it wasn't meant to be. We'll have no Bartmans or goats to blame for this.

Everett chases ball 4, and flies out weakly to the outfield.

QUOTE(tony72 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:15 PM) I think we seriously have to look at the wild card.... Yankees have a much easier schedule than we do.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:14 PM) It really sucks that we have come down to rooting for Kansas City to beat Cleveland. God damn it Sox if you blow this, I think a part of me might die. Don't let it get to you this much. If this team can't make the playoffs with a 15 game lead, they don't deserve to make it.

This umpire has the smallest strike zone ever.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:13 PM) JESUS CHRIST STOP RUNNING YOU DOUCHEBAG! I'm the first person to blame Pods for stuff, but that was a balk without a doubt.

Unbelievable. Pods gets picked off.....AGAIN! Ozzie's arguing it was a balk. After further review, that was a massive balk.

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:10 PM) CC had a so-so 1st half, and he's having a great 2nd half. That does not equate to an upper echelon pitcher IMO. But he is stepping it up when it counts the most. No, but I would refer to him as an upper echelon pitcher in general. Yes, he was awful in the first half of the season. However, whatever was wrong, he cured it and he's just dominating teams now.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:08 PM) Because I thought you said it. Upon looking at it again, you didn't say it. I apologize for the false accusation. No problem

Well, Ozzie's quote was that you have to tip your cap to Santana and just move on. How many times can we say this about him until we try something different against the guy?

Cleveland won. They're up 4-0, and KC has no chance against C.C., who over the last two months has stepped up like the upper echelon pitcher he is.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 06:03 PM) No, you got ripped because you said Santana Moss burned him all day, when in reality, it was Azumah who couldn't cover a piece of grass last weekend. And, well, because you said "f*** this board" about a month ago, and are still here. That's probably the funniest thing of all. I'm still waiting to know why you accused me of b****ing about the defenders not getting their hands up?

ARod homers, making it 4-2 Blue Jays in the 3rd inning.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 05:42 PM) Fathom, weren't you b****ing last week about how the Bears didn't do a good job of getting their hands up in the air on passes? Yet, where are you this week to compliment? Of course, that would probably be too hard, but... Actually, no, that wasn't me b****ing about that. Thanks though! I never said a single thing about getting their hands up. The main thing I said tht you fought with me was that Thomas Jones is better than our 2nd WR in regards to around the NFL.

Does Mike Sweeney really hate the Sox this much? He's been worthless against the Indians this series.

Yankees are losing 4-0!

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 05:47 PM) YAnks down 2-0 in the 2nd If only it was the White Sox, the game would be over. However, the Yankees have this thing called explosive offense, and they have more comebacks than any other team this season.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 05:24 PM) How are those $200M Yankees doing? It's funny, with their big payroll, and their starting pitching has been saved by Chacon and Small.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 18, 2005 -> 05:23 PM) Regardless of what the Indians did today, we need a win. Today's game = biggest game of the season (and you'll be seeing me say that a lot over the next few weeks). Sure, but it would be great if we could get a little help from another team once this month.
