Mexica movement, they will be at the May1st parade This makes me f***ing sick. These are the type of nutjobs that start with a movement, and then start doing stupid s***. This Aztlan movement sounds like a certain Basque separatist movement in France/Spain. They started out wanting something similiar, then boom went the bombs. Stupid

Brian Anderson and the rest of the single guys need to use this opportunity to get them a bunny for themselves. Look at what Pods goes home to.

QUOTE(Mplssoxfan @ Apr 27, 2006 -> 10:47 AM) There definitely should be wind farms of the coast of Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard, and the Mass dems in Congress and the rest of the NIMBYs are selfish fools for opposing them. We should also have oil rigs off the coast of Florida, but for tourism-related reasons, the Governor of Florida, among other Floridians, doesn't want them there. What's the Governor's name again? I forget. Too bad we care too much about Cariboo, 4 eskimos, a seal, 2 polar bears and a slab of ice in Alaska, because I hear they have oil up there also. Plus a pipeline to bring it home. But santa would be mad if Rudolf had to fly over an oil rig. OMG The poor cariboo

Wind Turbines are a bit too close Teddys home Bass said the Cape Wind project has been treated differently in Congress because powerful lawmakers and special interest lobbyists vacation on Cape Cod and treasure the ocean views. ''It's odd that the people who are against it are the people who have [scenic] views," Bass said. ''I'm sorry about that, but the project ought to rise or fall on its merits." So we dont want oil because its bad, and we dont want nuclear power because its bad also, and now we dont want Windmils. So I guess we are against electricity then. Back up the truck, turn off the internet, lets go back to the caves.

QUOTE(FlaSoxxJim @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 11:40 PM) Curiously enough, I also put RAM into a compuer tonight (my kid's cheap iron Wintel, not one of the mighty Macs) and ran intto an odd thing. On going out to the web, I all of a sudden started getting redirects to porn sites, porn and Brazilian soccer popups, etc., pretty much no matter where I tried to go. This is obviously an issue since this is a six-year-old's computer! I did a few spyware sweeps and I think found the ooffending software. Now my question is, is there anyway the budget RAM I installed somehow has the spyware burned into it in a ROM or something?? I really have no idea, but we never had anything like this happen until I put in the new RAM. Very strange. Your kids has a wintel. For shame. OSX would of kept your child safe for surfing. I doubt its the memory. RAM is volitile, which means the data gets destroyed as you boot and reboot your computer. Nothing is saved in RAM from boot up. So most likely its not that. Make sure you run a few antispyware checkers. The antispyware community is not sharing signatures like the a/v community, so one company might find something, while another might not. Try clearing your cookies to start off. Then clear your DNS cache. ipconfig /flushdns from a dos prompt. mr mac. There is a new class of spwyare that has been lurking, its a brower hijacker that utilizes the autosearch function in your browser. When you mistype a url it will automatically try and send the text to your default search engine for lookup to help you find where you are trying to go. However the default search engine is porn spyware central. You get bombed with popups. Microsoft is a pain in the ass for spyware. Hopefully its just a rogue cookie, or piece of random spyware and not something like a browser hijacker or something more low level. If you still are having problems pm me and I will give you a list of tools to run that may help you identify the culprit.

QUOTE(WCSox @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 11:51 PM) Given that we haven't hit Moyer well in recent years and we were riding an eight-game winning streak going into Monday night, I don't fault Ozzie for sitting a few regulars. We should be able to score more than one freaking earned run off of Moyer, even with Dye and Crede on the bench. Usually you dont have good numbers against a teams number 1. That is the time to have all of your best in. The 8 game winning streak is nice and all, however take a good look at our record on the West Coast over the last few years. Now say to yourself, against their best pitcher I think we still have a shot after taking out our number 5 hitter that provides protection to Konerko, Kong will still get the same pitches, our best defender for a pitcher who is a ground ball guy, and our leadoff guy. Take a look at the back of Mondays lineup and then ask yourself again, why didnt we score more runs against Moyer.

QUOTE(WCSox @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 11:38 PM) Um, no. Chalk one series loss to our lineup not being able to hit Moyer and Washburn. I think we have a better chance to hit moyer when we have the regulars out there. Not many teams can expect to do well when you take 1/3rd of the order out including 2 of our hottest hitters. Sure whatever potatoes potahtoes.

Well this happens from time to time to the Sox after a big blowout win. We jacked a ton of homers last night. Tonight we were out of sorts at the plate. This year we have been very patient at the plate, hitting line drives and putting pressure on the pitcher. We havent take a lot of bad swings, making pitchers throw strikes. Tonight we chases pitches out of the zone, took pitches down the middle, and had long swings fouling off the other pitches. When we connected on something it was either a Washburn belt high and higher fastball away which shot straight up for a popup, or we took out the 9 iron and golfed the breaking pitch in the dirt for another popup. My inital thought tonight was that were were going to rock wash. He is a good pitcher but relies on his fastball at lot, and tries to pound in. However a lot of pitchers would of looked great tonight due to our undisciplined approach. Hopefully we get back to business in LA. Garcia needs to nut up and throw hard and have a good game. Our hitters need to try and hit line drives again. And no more mass group 4 sightings for a week or so. Thome hits like s*** against Weaver .179BA , and so does Konerko .231. So we need Freddy to pitch well, we need to get into hitters counts and make Weaver get the ball up.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 10:27 PM) I think we might get made look silly by Santana on Sunday, but I really like the matchups on Friday and Saturday. 2 of 3 will happen. Hopefully Garcia thinks that the Angels are good so he can bring a fastball with him. If he thinks they suck, he will try and finese him and get rocked.

Ozzie never makes mistakes. He made water into wine last week, for the rest of the year we will play scrubs and will win every game. If we do happen to lose a game, its because I want to make sure that the other teams dont file an antitrust lawsuit for perfect team.

This is probably more of a reason that we were impatient at the plate tonight than Cy Washburn. Maybe Mrs Pods can give them the tour.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 10:03 PM) How do you know that. None of them had had much success, if any, against Moyer. And one of those starters you were just complaining about saying he isn't doing anything to get the offense going. How much sense does that make? Two of those reserves manufactured 2 of our 3 runs. I will take our regulars over Ozuna in Left, Mack in RF, and Cintron at 3rd any day of the week and twice on sunday. We lose with our best with our best effort fine. We play the Sunday lineup and just come up short then f*** us.

Why are we calling sliders. After he shows he cant catch up with heat. Stupid f***ing call.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 09:58 PM) Not our night tonight. BTW, even before this series started, would anyone be dissipointed with a 3-3 road trip with the M's and LAAA? No more resting 3 f***ing starters. We would of won game 1 and this game would of meant nothing.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 09:54 PM) Pods strikes out, good f***ing pitch to take with 2 strikes :banghead Thank god he is getting on base, ripping up the basepaths, being a distractor.

QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 09:45 PM) BRING IN AJ! That would of been a perfect time to put in AJ. He has been good with contact this year, is a tough out.

Now we have something going. Keep the conga line moving.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 09:28 PM) He went 8.2/2ER in his last start against Det. Just FYI Here we go. I predicted this earlier in the game thread. The cy youngification of Jarod Washburn. We are getting 2 hit, not because he is the best pitcher we have ever seen. Its because we are undisciplined tonight and are taking horrible swings. People score against the great Jarod Washburn. I mean maybe they have kryptonite or something but they do get to superman. Here is his line Indians 5 innings 6 runs, 2 dongs The weak hitting LA Angels managed 6 hits and 2 runs Boston 6 innings 3 runs. So again people can hit him.

Hope Buerhle's lap dance at the Playboy mansion is worth this pathetic effort by our team. This is why you dont rest your guys on game one in a away series on the west coast trip. We have lost series this year to the Indians, okay they are good. To the Royals, they suck balls, and now to Seattle who wont break 500 this year.

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 09:22 PM) There is no reason for pods to swing at that 3-1 pitch. We need baserunners. It's not like he's going to hit a HR. Thats why he has a .272 OBP. Woo Hoo we are getting 2 f***ing hit because we have already left Seattle mentally. Glad we rested everyone on Monday and gave that game away.

Pods swings at a chest high fastball on the outer half. Nice approach on 3-1

This pretty much sums up our hitters tonight. Fastball down the cock. They Take that pitch Fastball neck high and away, lets swing away. Ball gets hit straight up or we foul it off. Curve in the dirt, lets swing at that. If we are lucky we wedge it straight up. Fastball one the outside corner, foul it off with big swing. Pretty much we would make anyone look like Cy Young with this approach. This is why crappy pitchers like Scott Earlton look like studs against us. This year we have been great at making the pitcher throw strikes, not swinging at s***, and hitting mistakes over the plate. Hopefully we get our heads out of our ass and recover.

Chalk another inning to our hitters not being patient and swinging at s*** out of the strikezone, getting themselves behind the count, then popping s*** up. Aka long swing syndrome. We rocked the s*** out of the ball last night, great. Lets get the line drive quick cuts back. Pop up city sucks.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 09:00 PM) Great pitch call by the catcher. We just need to stop swinging a s*** out of the strike zone. We keep from swinging at neck high s*** and we will be okay. This guy is a left handed version of Earlton. You cant get good wood on a high pitch. You either foul it off or pop it straight up. If they lay off that and make him get it down, its over.

QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Apr 26, 2006 -> 08:58 PM) Is the sox killer a soft tossing lefty??? Usually, however this is not a traditional soft tosser. He attacks the strike zone with fastballs. We are just chasing high pitches and taking pitches over the cock. The minute we swing at strikes we will rock him.
