  1. I've always been a fan but I didn't get really soxXcore until '02 season.
  2. QUOTE(knightni @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 04:28 PM) http://www.sportscenteraltar.com/phrases/usage.asp?ID=41 Hawkisms HAHA "Pick it Wilson!" Wow that's one of my all time favs but a true rarity.
  3. QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Jun 9, 2005 -> 10:37 PM) I wish we had simply traded Paulie instead for Pods. "Hi, it's KW. Yeah. I think I've put something together. We'd like to have your starting CF, and in return we will give you a super slugging 1B whos contract is up after this year with no options for 2006. What's that? Yes, he does play the same position as Lyle Overbay and Prince Fielder. Come again? Do I know that there is no DH in the National Leauge? Haha, you're funny Bob Melvin. So, back to this deal. You down?"
  4. QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Jun 10, 2005 -> 05:15 AM) I agree. Just feels so damn good to have a solid bullpen. We haven't had one since 2000. I wouldn't call us solid yet. We need an injury free Marte and both Shingo and Viz to stop being not good.
  5. I guess the calendar curse is for real. Can we put the Minnesota Twins on our July 2005 edition?
  6. QUOTE(bulokis @ Jun 2, 2005 -> 06:50 AM) Brian Fuentes of the Rox. He was impressive last night.
  7. OMG Where did you get a dancing David Brent avatar???
  8. Two kids from Flower Mound HS just went back to back? What's in the water there?
  9. QUOTE(danman31 @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 01:08 PM) He's gotta get drafted first. I mean for high school baseball.
  10. Anyone know when and where Bowden pitches next?
  11. I don't get pissed that we aren't getting "the sweep". Well I am, but it is because Ozzie feels comfortable if we can't win the third game, and if we win 2 out of 3, that's all we can do. I hate that mentallity. In the past few weeks I've changed my mind and now feel that looking at everything in terms of series won and lost isn't helpful. A team with a 4-2 series record could have an overall record of 8-12 while a team with a 2-4 series record could have an overall record of 12-8. We shouldn't discredit our series record completely but just not stress them so much. Let's just worry about individual games instead. Does anyone here think we are going to run away with this division? I don't. It is concievable that our postseason hopes could lie in the balance of a 1 or 2 game separation. I really wouldn't want Ozzie's "2 outta 3 is good enough for me!" attitude to come back to bite us in the ass there. I'd rather make it to the postseason with tired starters than miss the playoffs with everyone well rested.
  12. As someone said before, WGN is the reason for many Sox fans out there. When Colorado didn't have a team, I think many out there adopted the Cubs (mostly them) or the Sox as their own.
  13. QUOTE(YASNY @ Jun 7, 2005 -> 05:06 AM) Are we forgetting the fact that we have a couple of 8-game winning streaks under our belt already? Those are difficult to accomplish without a sweep or two mixed in. Well I know two of our sweeps this year are against the Royals. I'm not really impressed. The Blue Jays sweep was really nice to see, although we tried to give that one away the last game too.
  14. Lets just enjoy that masterpiece for what it was and not worry about who felt Freddy might struggle.
  15. Here's another gem from Ozzie. Now I understand why we don't finish off any sweeps. Nice attitude Oz. Actually there is a little more you can do. You could start by not playing eenie meeni minie moe with your lineup card on the last game of each sereis.

    QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jun 6, 2005 -> 01:04 PM) when the Sox are up big or down big. Problem is this rarely happens.
  17. QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Jun 6, 2005 -> 01:00 PM) If Tino Martinez and Paul Konerko are 2 of the top 3 vote getters at 1st base, I wonder who the 3rd guy is. I bet it's somebody else that's entirely non-deserving. Maybe it's Texiera. He's very deserving though.
  18. I think Skiles is a good fit for a bunch of rookies as well as young, relatively unproven players like the majority of the Bulls were and basically still are. The drill sergeant approach can work for a group like that. I don't think he'd necessarilly fare as well coaching a team full of veterans.
  19. Maybe Pods can finally steal 5 in one game?
  20. I didn't see this because I stopped watching after the error, but it sounds like a bonehead move to me. At least if he had any faith in still winning the game.
