Uhh....don't look at my posts regarding this topic. For the record I really want us to resign Paul now.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Oct 25, 2005 -> 10:45 AM) What about the Jon Garland factor for Houston? Garland has made a big point of winning key games all year against big teams. Heck look no further than how he pitched against the Angels in the pivotal Game 3 of the ALCS. From just listening to the radio yesterday it sounds like basically everyone has already given this game to Houston, time for Jon to step up and prove why he won 18 games this season.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 11:08 PM) Play Iguchi. Bat him second. I hope Oz doesn't go to Harris. Please no! He wont. Don't worry.

I have two authentic grays. Freddy and.......drumroll please.........MARTE

NO.

QUOTE(DABearSoX @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 09:59 PM) wait, when was this......i must have totally missed it...but how You had to be at the game.

We're two f***in wins from winning the world series. Who gives a f*** what assholes in the media think.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 08:39 AM) If they're eating that much salary, it's gotta be big time talent. I'd imagine they'd try to pry away B-Mac (obviously not happening). I'm not really sure what they'll actually get in trade though, it should be interesting. I'm not so sure about that. If Philly wants to get rid of Thome which they basically need to do then they're going to have to eat a huge portion of that salary.

QUOTE(bmags @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 12:47 AM) yeah...plus i loved carmen defalco doing the games in spring training...i found him very sharp and very prepared. I think he has a future there. I found buck to be the only one complaining, espn didn't dwell on it, they did mention it as they should've but those types of calls are blown all the time, i mean when i happend there was no doubt in my mind he was hit, until they slowed it down and went FRAME BY FRAME on a play that lasted .3 seconds did i realise the error. Carmen was awesome in spring training doing the color.

During Joe's first ab today I actually yelled out "CMON RALLY CREDE" Everyone around me probably was like wtf is he saying.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 12:29 AM) A course I dont listen to ESPN radio because other than Mac, Yerko, and Harry its all crap... Silvy and Carmen are even better then M,J, and H imo. But besides that I think it's all crap as well.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 24, 2005 -> 12:21 AM) It's like I tell the Cubbie trolls at my work: It's NOT about the break you get, it's about what you DO with it! If the Astros don't hang a meatball to Paulie, the "controversy" doesn't happen. And that's assuming that Jermaine wouldn't get a big hit anyway - after all, it would have been a foul ball, NOT strike three, and Wheeler was anything but solid in that at-bat. No one is even talking about that play on the stros or what not. Media is trying to make something out of nothing as usual.

Happy bday elcaballo, happy bday ryan, have fun at stevenson.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 23, 2005 -> 11:41 PM) I know he's been trying to work in a cutter, but I hope they teach him a changeup like they did with B-Mac down in Charlotte, and we all saw the results of that. The f***in cutter he throws is nasty. Anyways, I agree he should use the curve a bit more, the pitch to bagwell wasn't that bad and the pitch to vizcaino was right there for him to hit and he hit it, the thing that gets bobby in trouble also is sometimes he's to around the plate if that makes sense. The pitch to bagwell wasn't horrible but it was down, if Bobby gets his heater at the letters most of the time he won't be touched. Closers have nights like this, he'll shake it off and get right back out there.

Just got home a few minutes ago, I just don't know what to say anymore, so I'll just say TWO f***IN MORE :headbang

I hate celebrities.

Hats off to Jose also. He was having trouble today but only allowed 3 in 7 innings. That's one of the differences in Jose, when he didn't have his good stuff or good control before he used to get drilled now he can control the damage and still pitch a good game.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Oct 22, 2005 -> 09:30 PM) Meanwhile, some Soxtalk admin is 11-1 with game threads.... Who?? I can not wait to get to the park tomorrow.

THREE f***IN MORE GUYS, BOBBY, NEAL AND JOE....YYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSS

I only wear basketball shoes, won't wear anything else.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 22, 2005 -> 02:20 PM) He probably got tired of hearing you cry about the Cardinals.... My wife has a larger tolerance for whining, apparently, cuz there's no ticket waiting for me..... Pssh, I couldn't care less about the cardinals, they just pissed me off cause they didn't let me win their lottery for world series tix. Well, that doesn't matter anyways. Aren't you taking your wife somewhere tonight and missing the game?? I think you should use that as an excuse to get a ticket.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Oct 22, 2005 -> 01:38 PM) Just a little over 4 hours... Pods, LF Iguchi, 2B Dye, RF Konerko, 1B Everett, DH Rowand, CF AJ, CF Crede, 3B Uribe, SS Contreras, SP Let's get 4 more guys.

QUOTE(rangercal @ Oct 22, 2005 -> 06:27 AM) If we win it all, Wouldn't a logical answer be to keep the team as is? IF it ain't broke don't fix it. I'm completely with you here ranger. Even if we dont win it all we can tweak the team a bit without getting rid of this core. Upgrade at dh that way we can improve our offense without messing with the defensive studs on the left side of the infield, also get rid of Damaso and Viz, throw the duke in the pen, Brandon in the rotation, and sign someone like a Mike Myers who can be that LOOGY that ozzie seems to need, and Myers is devastating on lefties.

QUOTE(Brian @ Oct 22, 2005 -> 07:08 AM) Fair weather fan. My friend that I was just talking to basically said the same thing as you, best football game he's ever seen. Mike Morrisy was the one who blocked the kick by the way. See you on thanksgiving weekend.
