QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 17, 2006 -> 08:40 AM) The real world. Stopping behavior favorable to injury and dress & appearance codes are fairly common. the slip and slide thing is cute and all, until someone hurts themselves then soxtalk is imploding calling for ozzie and kw's head for allowing such dumb behavior. Plus its not like their abilities are tied to a haircut. And if if is, maybe they can all get lockets to put their hair in to remember the hippy days of old.

QUOTE(Jeckle2000 @ Apr 16, 2006 -> 11:17 PM) I bet you all of those players outhit Anderson this year... Well if Harris hits the majors that is... Maybe Jeckle we should of sent Ventura back down when he came up. Because he obviously will never hit major league pitching because he started like 1 for 42. Lets give the kid a few months before we bury him. Your man crush Arow also kind of sucked when he came up. In fact so much that KW traded for CF twice to replace him mid season. Arow is gone, as much as well all love him. Thome + Anderson >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Everett + Arow

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Apr 15, 2006 -> 02:24 PM) No s***. Thome is a little off right now, and Konerko stepped right up. This team is hitting the crap out of the ball. The funny thing is these two will feed off of each others success. And it really has had an effect on Iguchi. With Thome hitting the way he has, pitchers will challenge Gooch. He has feed more off of a strong 3 hole hitter this year more than anyone. With Thome hitting the way he has, pitchers who are mainly right handed will pitch around him to get to Kong. With Thome on base, Kong will get some more fastballs to hit as they dont want to get into a big inning. And finally Dye will get a lot of pickup work from pitchers who s*** the bed from facing Kong and Thome. This is the Manny - Ortiz effect. Maybe just maybe not as potent, but pretty damn imposing.

If that play by Iguchi is not the #1 web gem tonight then I call Shenanigans. Bobby getting his hook over makes him a hell of a lot more dangerous. His location was on today, and he got the save. Buerhle had a great game, and Kong provided the O. If Kong and Thome are both as dangerous as they appear to be, jesus.

QUOTE(G&T @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 10:31 PM) Sounds right...Maybe there's a space ship behind the comet that we can hitch a ride on. The french needs to call Katy and Tom to find out when the chosen on will be born. Xenu will be defeated only when the chosen one is born. Travolta will fly out and rescue the chosen child before Xenu lobs that comet our way. Now the silly thing is, this is probably the way the scientologist really think.

QUOTE(G&T @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 09:56 PM) All hail Xenu!!!!!

QUOTE(bmags @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 10:04 PM) do you guys remember how crede was when he first came up???? then he tore it up in september that year...but yeah what the f*** is up with our pitching staff? Our pitchers who are struggling are missing with their location. Polittes velocity is still down. Politte with less velocity and less control will equal meat. We have scored enough runs to win tonight. If our pitching does a decent job we are talking about a win tonight.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 09:55 PM) Might as well let him have a refresher course with Juan while he's here. Uribe is not using the leg kick that he was using at the end of last year as a timing mechanism. It kept him closed off and on the ball longer.

Maybe they can bring Walt Hrniak in to work with Anderson like they did with Uribe last year. Uribe was a changed hitter after his work with Walt late last year. As it has been said before, Walt simplifies things and helps with making good contact. Anderson can work on his power game after he starts hitting the ball with good line drives.

Well when you score 7 runs we should win.

Well this game got out of hand in a hurry.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 09:04 PM) If it continues for awhile, I would imagine he'd just switch Cliff and Bmac. That switch has already been made. Bmac has been in the competitve games at the end. And Cliffy is throwing extended BP when we go down by a few.

Can we get someone else up.

Our pitching so far in the last two games is great. Our O scores 5 or more and then our pitching decides to take a crapper.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 08:59 PM) They are treating us like we are Matt Clement and David Wells. Mercy. Well like Matt Clement Cliffy threw a major league a meatball about belt high and center cut.

1st and 2nd, no outs and we f*** ourselves out of the inning. Why would you bunt and put pressure on a kid who is struggling.

QUOTE(Iwritecode @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 12:12 PM) I watched the South Park episode and when they started explaining it they flashed the words "This is what Scientologists actually believe!". I wasn't sure if they were joking or not.

I wonder what their agenda is. So a baby at 39 weeks because it has not gone through the birthing process can not feel pain, however a 36 week pre-me can because they were removed from a C section? This is just more agenda based science to make themselves feel good that this is removing a group of cells and not a life. Its the same syndrome that we saw in Silence of the Lambs when the serial killer disassociated himself from his victims by using the word it. I love the fact in this article is a professor of pyschology. He can interview the fetus and ask it it has pain. But according to other research 1997: Statement by Professor Robert White: Dr. Robert White, director of the Division of Neurosurgery and Brain Research Laboratory at Case Western Reserve School of Medicine, gave testimony before the House Constitution Subcommittee of Congress. He stated that the fetus at 20 weeks gestation "is fully capable of experiencing pain...Without question, all of this is a dreadfully painful experience for any infant subjected to such a surgical procedure." 1997: Statement by Dr. Paul Ranalli: Dr. Ranalli is a neurologist at the University of Toronto, in Toronto Canada. He is acting president of the de Veber Institute for Bioethics and Social Research. He gave a presentation called "Pain, Fetal Development, and Partial-birth abortion" on 1997-JUN-27 to the House Judiciary Committee of the State of Ohio. 2,3 He has concluded that the "spino-thalamic" system is fully developed at about 12 to 14 weeks of gestation. This is the system that conveys pain signals from pain receptors throughout the body to the thalamus. He apparently believes that the thalamus can feel pain, even though a connection between it and the cortex is missing. To support his belief that a fetus in the second trimester can feel pain, he cites three signs: 1.) A fetus will "withdraw from painful stimulation" 2.) Two types of stress hormones which are detected in adults who are feeling pain are also found in a fetus from when a blood sample is withdrawn. He quotes: 3.) Nicholas Fisk of London, England who observed this reaction as early as 19 weeks 4, and 4.) J Partch of Kiel, Germany who observed it at 16 weeks.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 10:13 AM) One of my favorite things to do is now ruined. The Score has found a way to ruin Sox radio with Farmer as play-by-play, Singleton as Color and Rongey as the pre/post host. Vote and discuss. Hopefully someone from the Score stumbles across this poll. Aboz is on a mission. Singleton is brutal. Baseball can be a fast game. The ball takes a second or so to travel the 60' 6"and then the play itself takes 10 seconds or less. Why that is going on Singelton is studdering, stammering and pausing pretty much ruining the fluid play. Then he gets on a tangent and cant let it go. He has to finish the sentence. No matter how long it takes him, and no matter how many pitches or plays we miss. Here is a brief example of the same sequence done by Rooney and done by Singleton Rooney: Johnson steps and fires, hum baby for strike one. Johnson rocks and fires, Pauly hits it deep to left center, Matsui going back to the track, to the wall, and Its a Goner. Singleton: Still doing the lineups as the first pitch is thrown. Johnson is tall. Farmer interjects and says strike one. The pitcher, Randy JOHN pause SON throws a hard ball, and its hit, the ball is hit to left, pause, its going over the left fielders head, its over the left fielders head, and its yup over the wall, and that would be a home run.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 14, 2006 -> 09:55 AM) I would be reading his email for sure. LOL As disgusted as I am by his lack of business accumen. I must admire his selection of web sites I got sick and tired of being in the middle of these porn fights at work. So now the web content filter will automatically email the persons boss when a person surfs porn. I set the filter at 30 minutes of porn access just to gleen out the false positives of people getting a rougue link from spyware. His supervisor is the CEO. LOL

Good Friday obviously has a different religious effect on different types of people. One of our esteemed Vice Presidents has been trolling porn sites since 7am this morning. Not too smart. Then again maybe he is just paying homage to Gods creation known as the 18-22 year old naked female.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 13, 2006 -> 09:41 AM) I workout. It always makes me feel better. Same here. I go up to lifetime and workout or I will go out for a long run. Either way you are too tired when you come back to be upset still.

Garland will be fine. All he needs to do is to start attacking the strikezone again. Any pitcher no matter how great of stuff will get rocked if they continually get behind hitters and walk people in front of power guys. Good hitters become great hitters when the count is constantly 2-0 and 3-1. Also good hitters can flat out swing from their asses when down 8-1. 8-1 f*** I would swing for the fence. They got hitters counts and hit Garland coming back in the strikezone. I am not happy that he s*** the bed, but he will be fine. It wont be the first pitcher nor the last that will s*** the bed this year. At least our O can pick up our pitching when they fail. Last year we would of lost this game like 9-2.

Jon is getting behind everyone of these hitters. His success last year was based on getting ahead of the hitter and staying out of the big inning.
