QUOTE (Wanne @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 08:44 PM) I've never understood how they were that good the entire year. You win that many games though...you're doing something right I guess. But I agree. They're 3rd place next year. And guys like Imawatanable or whatever the hell his name is fall off the map.... They're too young an inexperienced to know that they're supposed to suck.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 08:41 PM) I'd really like to know how many times this team has scored more than one run in the 1st inning (and probably should have put up 5 tonight)...and then lay and not score s*** the rest of the game? Or at least only score in 1 inning. I'd like to see a breakdown by thirds. Innings 1-3, 3-6 and 6-9. I bet innings 3-6 are just brutal.

In the 1st inning we should have produced more than 2 runs, ballgame.

I don't think we'll get swept.

I had never seen Balfour pitch before today, so I don't know his stats or if the Sox have owned him in the past. I do know this, when he came into the game today, the momentum shifted in a big way. That dude is crazy and has somewhat intimidated the Sox.

QUOTE (Texsox @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 11:07 AM) Hmm, I agree on the team jersey for most of the time and places. I disagree on the shoes. I wear Sperry Top-siders all the time. Wearing almost anything else that is "closed toed" with shorts looks stupid. I wear Converse Chuck Taylors to concerts. Why ruin a good pair of shoes? Since I've been out here though, it's dress shoes to work, or flip flops everywhere else.

I didn't mind the jawing, the kicking dirt was rather b**** like though. I mean wtf was that supposed to prove?? OC can make a dust cloud by dragging his foot, I guess they'd better intentionally walk him.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 11:03 AM) Any Hold Steady fans know the name of the 2nd to last song on Stay Positive? It starts out, "If she asks, don't tell her that I'm living hand to mouth" and ends each verse with some kind of drug reference. That song and the last one are not listed on the album. Kick ass song: "Ask her for Aderall"

When I shop for clothes and I have to ask myself: "Am I too old to wear that"? I dated a woman who said that men should never wear gym shoes as casual shoes nor wear a team jersey. She said that's one way to tell the difference between men and boys.

The first time I went to the Dr. who was younger than me. The first time I got pulled over by a cop who was younger than me. When I realized that a person born on the year I graduated from HS is old enough to purchase alcohol legally. When I stopped seeing a girl who was much younger than me because she was young and stupid...even though she was smokin hot.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 11:25 PM) The fact that Davis released to the press his letter to Kiffin shows what a jagbag Davis really is. Seriously, that's an asshole move. I agree. I bet Al's cock hasn't worked in about 40 years. What else would make a man so bitter and hateful?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 11:52 PM) I think Javy is terribly unclutch, but basic odds tell you that he SHOULD have a good start after having 3 stink bombs in a row. That's part of why I feel surprisingly good about this series. Danks needs to pull him aside, drop his own shorts and show Javy what a real pair looks like.

Not for a second did I think BA wouldn't make that catch. As soon as it was hit, I started celebrating. Everyone at the bar thought I was crazy. Not many Sox fans out here in the desert.

Not just because we won, but that was a great, great baseball game. Guys on both sides went at it 110% and almost flawlessly. One mistake, one bomb, ballgame. Random thoughts: Perhaps he was stunned from the collision, but AJ showing Cuddyer the ball instead of the ump was bad ass and hilarious. How far did Jimmy's bomb travel? Almost made the fan deck, or no? Part of it might have been the 'black out', but why do the stands at the Cell look so dark on TV? It doesn't happen on Comcast or WGN, or even WCIU, but on the national networks they always do. Bring on Tampa, I like our head to head stats. I still don't believe in them, they're gonna have to show me.

You mean the fake PR move to make fans feel like playoff tix are actually available?

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 09:04 AM) Hmmm, I saw them there that night too, I had close tickets, sounded OK to me, but it is Tinley Park and I have very low standards for that sound. I just got 2 tickets to see them in December at Allstate with the internet presale. I'm excited. For a big city, the Chicago area has some God awful big music venues..... when it comes to sound that is. Tinley, Aragon, Allstate....

QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 09:58 AM) It will be 57 and partly cloudy at game time. Your song lyrics are by a band that is Twin fans. That is playing with fire. Fixed.

Wierd quote by Oz. Basically, if Blackburn makes adjustments and pitches differently than last time, we're screwed?? I'm pretty sure he's aware of that.

Weather tonight? So what's the over/under time on when we overload this web site later today? I say right around the 2nd inning, so like 7:20 Central time?

I'm so preoccupied with this game that I can't focus on doing anything this morning. It took me 20 minutes to make breakfast as I kept walking around in circles. Misplaced the coffee pot, found it in the fridge.

Took the day off from work, have started drinking already. A thorough ass pounding of the Twins might just push the Sox deep into the playoffs. LET'S GO WHITE SOX CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP LET'S GO WHITE SOX CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 29, 2008 -> 01:10 PM) I will be very happy if 2009 finds Javier Vazquez in another jersey. I can stomach him as our #5. It's not his fault he's been advertised as anything better. You can't turn dog s*** into diamonds.

They have no idea, but it will be longer than I slight delay. My guess and hope is it will start this evening.
