Why did this cup get so much covergae this year? Is it me, or did it seem to be everywhere?

Has anyone needed to purchase an airline ticket lately? Holy crap, why don't I just ask them if they prefer to use K-Y or Astroglide.

WTF takes the MLB site so long to put the video hightlights up?

That is far more exciting than the long ball or nothing approach.

wow, live and die by the long ball.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 09:22 AM) Not a video, but it is hilarious and stupid, so I say it qualifies: http://www.holytaco.com/2008/06/27/the-dou...age-in-history/ Hilarious, but no way it's real.

I'm confused....but what an ass clown.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 1, 2008 -> 01:00 AM) Boy that was ugly, but it's a big W. A sweep would be nice, but if we just split against C.C. and Lee, we win the series and send them out of town 10 and a half back and (at best) in a tie with Kansas City in the cellar. I'll take it. I've been thinking that all year. He's offensive numbers overall are still really good, but he's just not planting at all on throws or even when he bends over to pick the ball up on grounders. He's all legs right now on defense, and that's no good. That grounder right between his legs the other night was just bad. He is obviously thinking too much about how he moves around rather than just doing it automatically. I can understand why that fear is there, but at some point you just gotta loosen up let it go.

Do you think Crede might be afraid of re injuring his back and so it distracts him on the field?

and he kept pressing Miller to agree with him and Miller said something like: "well I've only seen 5 pitches".... and then Bobby almost crapped the bed. Take it easy Joe.

Her and that girl to the right look like plastic dolls. To borrow one of my favorite lines from the Sopranos: The dark haired girl in the jeans and red top looks "like a Puerto Rican drag queen".

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 08:49 PM) Yeah... that was just kinda more insult to injury IMO. It was early in the game, they had time to get back into it.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 08:46 PM) In Lou's defense...that was BS he got tossed. Complete bush league IMO......... Can't come out to argue balls and strikes, period. I don't care that he was heading back to the dugout, he had already come out to b****. Sorry, bye bye.

Good game. Gammons tried to babble about nothing as usual and they had technical difficulties, then tried it again later and gets cut off because of the Quentin HR. Is this team long ball or nothing? Not usually a good formula.

I missed the game, but just watched the highlights. When Dumpster got yanked, that was the loudest I've heard the 'Na Na hey hey' chant in a long time. I got goose bumps.

This would make no sense. Two weekends out of the year that place might be packed with Cub fans, but what about the rest of the year?

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 09:45 AM) Dear Ozzie Guillen, If Aramis Ramirez comes up to bat against Contreras with runners on in a big situation, please, please, please, please don't let Jose pitch to him. Walk him or bring in a reliever. The numbers dont lie. He will crush anything Jose throws at him. Thanks, LittleHurt05 ...or throw him a high and tight fastball to start his first AB. I'm thinking the Sox take 2 out of 3 this weekend and Jimmy snaps out of it with a couple of bombs.

No thx. All these women that have been deformed by plastic surgery look like drag queens.

I believe Imus, sorry. The comment alone is vague and when he explained it we don't believe him because he made one very offensive comment in the past?

QUOTE (quickman @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 09:39 AM) well its four hours back home as well, and the cubs in town. I am just saying. He should lie on his back on the floor in the aisle.

QUOTE (TCQ @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 08:32 AM) On the pregame show, King of all knowledge Beltin Bill Melton said with the upmost confidence that Credes back is sore because of sitting on a plane for four hours... That'll do it. Sitting is the worst. get well and get back Joe.

QUOTE (joeynach @ Jun 23, 2008 -> 01:12 AM) Perhaps they know how to mechanicly make some tweaks here or there to try and hit 330 foot gap shots that turn into homers. Thats why that team is like 32-8 at home they know what to do to take advantage and obviously the sox hitters dont. Any plenty of those home runs hit were knee high or lower. C'mon, if that's the case, then every Cub team since late 1800s would have that kind of home record, no? Or are you saying that the 08 team figured something out that past teams, or visiting teams, had not? Nonsense.

QUOTE (BobDylan @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 10:08 PM) I already stated it in another thread, but I think there is something to be said about the difference in distance. The White Sox hitters pounded theirs out and didn't need aid. The Cubs, not so much. If you tell me that it is just pure luck that the Cubs hitters caught all those jet-streams, I won't believe you. They know something their opponents don't. But don't mistake this for an excuse. The Sox deserved to get beat up and down. They know something their opponents don't. Like what?? They are able to time when the jet streams are coming and know exactly when to step into the batter's box??

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 07:00 PM) *raises hand* Who are you looking forward to seeing?

Give the Cubs some credit. Swept us minus Soriano and Zambrano. Long way to go still, but they look good.
