QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 04:24 PM) The point being? I will love Thomas nearly no matter what comes out of his mouth. Does that mean I can't be objectional and I have to stand by him no matter what he says? The point being, Jordan said some people are in the kenny can't do no wrong camp because of what he did this year, it goes both ways, some people are fans of the team just cause of Frank and have him in the can't do no wrong camp as well. It's a two way street.

I need one of those.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 04:04 PM) And you fickle fans that want to act like a guy wasn't s*** because he unfortunately wasn't able to be part of a magical title run are even more comical. Will somebody please pull up some of the old "fire Kenny" threads from last September? Or how about a certain someone saying they hoped that the Sox didn't make the playoffs.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 03:54 PM) Nobody should be amazed that a player gets into a school for football or basketball. EVERY SCHOOL IN AMERICA cheats to get players qualified to play sports, end of discussion. Ding Ding.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 03:50 PM) Thomas wasn't the one who threw around the personal attacks. That was KW, not Frank. Honestly, his comments weren't a whole lot different than from what Benjie Molina said of the Anahiem organization a month or two ago. I didn't see comments from Bill Stoneman calling him a selfish idiot... Good to see those comments today. Hopefully this thing will just die. It wasn't just Frank's comments as of late, Kenny just finally had enough and you could tell in that interview. Frank's latest comments just pushed it over the edge I guess you could say. Whatever, hopefully this thing will just die soon.

Add me to the list that thought it was David.

Ha, ya, of course they misgraded it.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 02:23 PM) Non-story. If they suspend KG, that's just flat out ridiculous. ^

QUOTE(Brian @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 08:29 AM) Fixed it. You don't matter.

Lunardi was just on college gamenight. He has SIU and IU in now, so that's nice for me and greasy. I still think we have to get to the championship to get in but who the hell knows. Our resume is really better then most bubble teams but I just get the feeling that the committee won't want to take 5-6 mvc teams, though if you're just looking at the resume, all 6 should really have a good shot. We'll see, it's going to be a fun weekend in St. Louis and if we don't come out the winner there, it's going to be a nervous week.

So I finally get my hotel booked for this weekend in St. Louis and my friends car, which we're supposed to take broke down today.

I don't think we should use the heads good luck game threads until the regular season. But that's just me.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 11:10 PM) Wow, I just watched KW's interview on ESPN and he went at him hard. He was definitely angry. Looked like it was something he wanted to get off his chest for a long time.

QUOTE(Fourofakind @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 09:44 PM) Due to this post I have found and made myself a new avatar.....What you guys think??

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 08:55 PM) I ask this question, if everyone is such a sports fan, why don't you care about sports on the ultimate level(worldwide competition)? I never got that. Cause a lot of the sports in the olympics I just don't care about. For the sports I do, the rest of the world cares about the medals more then the U.S. to be honest. The olympics just never interest me. It's nothing against the olympics, I personally just don't care.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 08:44 PM) Do all of you guys drive to downtown or something? I would love to have the olympics here. It would be a great thing for the city. Holding the Olympic Games here alone pays for costs and then some. I doubt the Metra schedule changes if the Olympic games are held here. Same with CTA. In fact, they'll probably run more frequent. I'm sure most of you guys take public transportation anyway. I say quit the complaing and have a good time watching a bunch of sports. If I cared about the olympics I wouldn't care about all that stuff but I don't so I do.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 07:31 PM) I'm sure he was serious about being productive still, but I can't believe "prime" wasn't a joke. Anyway, as someone around 30, that's immediately how I recognized it, fwiw. Fair enough.

QUOTE(jackie hayes @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 07:21 PM) It was a joke... Maybe you're too young to understand this, but people very close to 30 and 40 love to talk about how young they are. 'After all, it's not like I'm 30!' It's tongue-in-cheek. The way the q and a went, I really doubt he was joking.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 07:21 PM) and Jim Thome is in his prime? Never said he was. That being said, Thome is one year removed from having a great season.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 07:17 PM) You don't call him an idiot period. I'm sorry but the comments in that article were idiotic. Your prime is between 37-40? Why not take it further and say that el duque is in his prime. GMAFB.

QUOTE(KevHead0881 @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 07:03 PM) I think some are mistaken by thinking this blowup by KW is just from Frank's recent comments. As far as I can tell, this is an overall backlash at the kind of guy Frank has been since KW has been in charge. I think the recent interview, while not exactly a thrashing of the Sox organization, was just the straw that broke the camels back. Bingo.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 06:55 PM) ...not to mention the absolute chaos downtown. It would be horrendous...absolutely unbearable. That would be my problem with it. When I'm in town for the summer I'd like to actually be able to go downtown and such.

QUOTE(whitesoxin' @ Feb 26, 2006 -> 06:39 PM) Wow this is really out of hand. In May when Frank comes back to Chicago, we will all be remembering the 2 MVPs and what should have been #3 if not for roids and Giambi. We will be remembering his 1st inning home runs. We will be remembering his complete domination of the sport in the early 1990s. I hope so but I doubt this thing dies quietly.

God, I hope not.

Last year I finally thought Frank has turned the corner on this crap but he just hasn't, he's starting to whine again and it really has become ridiculous. I don't like how this stuff is obviously going to become the story following around the team but Kenny has taken the high road long enough on this stuff, enough is enough at some point. As much as Frank has meant to the organization Kenny means more now, and I mean that.
