I've definitely forged many "shaky alliances" with Cardinal fans out of our mutual hate of the Cubs

Gordon smoked that thing....nice play in center though

lol @ Gordon's dad's hair!!

Thornton making too good of a pitch there

I don't think this will be like the Tigers game...being handled differently.

Tough one for a SS

K, BB, HR this is Adam Dunn baseball

Gordon Beckham = Brian Anderson

QUOTE (jeffro2525 @ Jun 1, 2012 -> 08:22 PM) Wow...Hudson should have let that ball roll foul. Not showing a super baseball IQ there. Hard for me to get too mad there...thinking on the fly you don't like seeing the ball just rolling around. You're not in a "bunt" kind of mindset or anything on that play

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2012 -> 08:08 PM) Yay for blown calls real big call with the bases juiced there...making any amount of contact with that changeup should have been awarded

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 1, 2012 -> 08:05 PM) Alex had his pitch to hit Unfortunately the curveball in the zone for Felix still has so much break that it's hard to hit. And that change was nastyyyy

Nice at bat.

Hard hit, just too hard.

Hudson passes that test

Peavy needs to find something soon

Great seats still available

QUOTE (flavum @ Jun 1, 2012 -> 05:43 PM) I won't be surprise if it's in the 22-24,000 range tonight, but Saturday and Sunday should be well over 30,000. Buy, buy, buy KW!!

Romo is overrated because he gets WAY too much press. Things that have nothing to do with his quarterbacking make him a hot topic when he doesn't deserve to be. The true measure of how people feel about you is how much you're talked about and all they will do once the season gets going is talk about Tony Romo and the Cowboys. Paul Konerko is underrated not because nobody thinks he is good, but because nobody thinks about him at all.

Explodo Peavy looks kinda scary...I'll have to go with happy Peavy otherwise the pic looks weird

AJ cleated Zobrist. AJ was hit as retribution. Story over. Something else happened that caused the "extra" to happen. Maybe Zobrist opened his mouth, maybe we're pissed about Gordon being hit, I don't know.

The piece of s*** Chicago Tribune Live had no idea why Hawk would be mad outside of being a White Sox fan. That show is hard to watch for baseball discussion.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 31, 2012 -> 08:56 PM) Carlos Gonzalez was traded twice. I repeat: Carlos Gonzalez has been traded twice. That must mean there are two message boards with stupid threads about what if they had kept him

I bet I can guess how the lineup will look tomorrow..

I was with a group of about 10 Sox fans when the Humber perfect game happened and all we could talk about during that last inning was how not having Hawk on the call was really sucking the life out of it. Watching that link to Buehrle's last inning posted earlier in this thread really shows me why I love Hawk. Hearing Hawk's call makes me as nostalgic as the moment itself... When I was a kid, I was convinced that there was no team for me except the one that Ken Griffey Jr. played on. The White Sox sounded lame. However, my dad continued watching the games and...they seemed so fun. The guy on TV would go off when the Sox hit home runs and, well, the Sox hit a lot of those too I imagine that Hawk is awesome for bringing in the casual fan in like that. He makes you complicit in his fandom. The love for the Sox is infectious, at least as long as you don't have some long held loyalty for another team.
