Official 2008-2009 NFL Thread
I'm not going to base one game against Detroit on how good Atlanta is. Miami definately is better than 1 win with Pennington as their quarterback, and until Bulger finds his confidence, St. Louis can't improve.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 14, 2008 -> 08:48 AM) I think that KC could be the worst team in the NFL. (Sorry WT) haha I don't know if I'll go as far as saying they're the worst but they're one of the bottom 5 or so with Miami, St. Louis, San Francisco, and Atlanta.

Pitching Rotation
QUOTE (WSoxMatt @ Sep 13, 2008 -> 02:31 PM) Just set the rotation so we have Floyd, Javy and Buehrle for the Twins please I'd rather have Danks pitch against the Twins to get another lefty to face them.

WTF?? Initiation or Hazing?
it's probably both, because a lot of hazings are initiations. that's down right sick though.

Official 2008-2009 NFL Thread
QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Sep 14, 2008 -> 08:25 AM) I think they should win today. When did Carolina become some powerhouse? I think we match up well against them, especially without Smith. They dont have any receivers that our corners cant handle one on one so we can focus on stopping the run. The past few years many have picked Carolina to go to the Super Bowl, but they've vastly underachieved. This year nobody picked them to go to the Super Bowl, or even to win their division. The game doesn't matter to me at all, I'll be focusing on the Chiefs sucking, but I pick the Panthers to win.

2008 Chicago Cubs Catch-All Thread
Let's just give the Cubs a couple extra home games, pathetic. It's really sad how Ike and MLB have possibly messed with the Astros, chances are they still wouldn't make the playoffs, but they've been on fire and have made the Wild Card interesting.

Twins Watch Thread 2008
Anyone have any idea who's pitching in the Minnesota series? I'm not even going to try to figure it out with all of the rain delays happening. Please no 5th starter, that's all I ask. I would prefere no Vazquez either because I don't like how he performs in big game situations.

2008 MLB Catch-All Thread
K-Rod broke Thigpen's record tonight. This was one of the records I thought that would be very hard to break, because if you're a good team, you're probably going to win by more than 3 runs a lot of times.

9-2 and Baltimore is on their 3rd pitcher in the 3rd inning. I'm not going to watch anymore.

50 FAVORITE WHITE SOX PLAYERS
My prediction is since Baines is already #5: 4. Fisk 3. Ventura 2. Buehrle 1. Thomas Fisk and Ventura would be flipped for my second prediction.

On the brighter side, if Toronto holds their lead, we'll gain 1 game on Boston. Granted we'll need a monsterous collapse from them which probably won't happen.

Twins Watch Thread 2008
QUOTE (santo=dorf @ Sep 13, 2008 -> 08:07 PM) I'm so glad the Sox took the Baltimore games lightly. Nothing says killer instinct like starting Horacio Ramirez and trying to use him for 3 innings. You might need to keep track of the Twins magic number. I hate the Twins with a passion, but the deserve credit for never being out of it. Plus whenever they have an injury, the replacements seem to do better than the originals, minus Mauer or Morneau. We don't get that luxury.

6-0. You suck Garrett Olson. Thank you Baltimore for putting someone on the mound with a career 6.72 ERA. How he came into tonight 10-10 lifetime I have no clue.

what the hell is wrong with you Baltimore? 4-0 in the top of the first with only 1 out. way to keel over and die.

Turn Ahead the Clock Night
I think I do remember wearing them, but I also don't remember what they looked like. I'm not even sure if our colors were black for them. This is odd because I was thinking about this a few weeks ago, I remember SportsCenter showing what Babe Ruth would've looked like in the Yankees Turn Ahead The Clock. http://www.baseball-reference.com/bullpen/...the_Clock_Night According to that, we wore ours against the Indians on September 10th.

DJ....He Gone
It's bittersweet, Stone is awesome and will improve the booth, but DJ is a good guy too. Plus he's less of a homer than Hawk. In a perfect world you'd be able to have 3 in the booth to keep DJ, but that wouldn't work as well. Good luck to you DJ, I hope you take the radio job because I'll be listening on XM Radio, or whatever the merger will be called.

What natural disasters have you lived through?
The 1993 Iowa Flood (very bad) The 1999 Iowa Flood (kind of bad) The 2004 Iowa Flood (not too bad) The 2008 Iowa Flood (VERY BAD) I have been around many funnel clouds, but they never amounted to anything more. I have never seen a tornado, but I would like to sometime. In May of 2008 I was chasing tornadoes, one landed in Parkersburg when I was 30 minutes away. E60 is going to do a story next Tuesday about Parkersburg and the NFL players from there. It should be a good story. Their football team is probably already up 30 and the game hasn't started, they are just that dominant. In the 1999 flood, the bike trail by my house was flooded out, but a friend and I decided to ride on it anyways with 3 feet of water in some spots. It was a pretty stupid thing to do and I almost lost it biking over the creek with a strong current, that was the nearest death experience I've had.

I won't feel comfortable unless we get a 4 game lead going into Minnesota. Any loss helps and we need to take advantage of it.

Wow, that looked like strike 3 to Mauer. Mauer grounds out to second. GAME!

I'm glad both the Royals and Twins are wearing their Patriotic hats, I hope the White Sox and all who are play do the same.
