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(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.

QUOTE(Brian @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:47 PM) Warren and Stevenson were tied at 21 after a TD pass from Stevenson with 24 secs left and went to Overtime. Stevenson got the ball first and ran it in on 3 plays and added the extra point to make it 28-21. First play for Warren was an out pass to Marcus Lewis for the quick strike, extra point added made it 28-28 going to a 2nd OT. Incidently, High School overtime is like college, only the ball is on the 10 instead of the 25. Warren got the ball first in 2OT and on the first play threw a TD pass to Marcus Lewis again. Extra point BLOCKED by Stevenson. Stevenson's possession was 3rd and Goal on the 5. The ran a play out of the T formation it looked like. They faked a hand off to there star RB and everyone fell for it as the ball was actually handed off to another back and he ran in untouched. The whole place was fooled. Extra point was good and Stevenson knocked off Warren 35-34, in one of the greatest High School football games I have witnessed. These two school could play again in two weeks and it will be AT Stevenson if it happens cuz of tonight's actions. I wouldn't be surprised if either school wins 8A.

I get home on the train from college today, my dad picks me up and has a ticket for game 2 just laying in the car. I don't think I've ever been so happy well atleast since sunday. I can't wait. :headbang

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:14 AM) WHORE Meh, gotta do what you gotta do.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:42 AM) I have been saving good newspapers for the whole season. Plus I grabbed a few of the different newspaper box signs to go with them. I have every newspaper from every game of the postseason except after game 1 of the alcs, I guess I forgot to pick that one up. I think it's just a cool thing to have.

QUOTE(AnthraxFan93 @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 09:16 AM) First off I know I am not liked around here becuase well I speak the truth Truth=Orlando Cabrera for MVP and Russ Ortiz for Cy young.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:16 AM) I'll change lose to "choke" then. Although that was flavour of the month last month wasn't it. Hey, don't lump me in with that group.

To answer this question tex I honestly still don't know what I'm feeling. I can't wait for saturday, I want to win this whole thing so damn bad. For me atleast, it's going to hurt a lot if we don't win it but like Tony said IF we lose and once I have some time to get over it I'll just think back on how special of a season this was. That being said lets win this f***in thing.

Jon's our only starter that doesn't look lost up there, Cliff is the best hitter on the team this year so I'm sure he'll be used as a pinch hitter sometime this series.

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:07 AM) Not sure why that's happening; the more I think about it, the more I think Houston will roll over us. Oh I dont know, maybe because you picked the sox to win 75 games in the preseason, maybe because you picked the red sox to destroy our sox or maybe because you said "the angels are headed to the world series" you've been right on the mark all year about this group.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:15 AM) The Drunk Andy Griffith strikes again!!! I don't think I'll go to the UC. It's not like the Bulls or Hawks, where that's their home field. The bulls and hawks play on fields.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 10:11 AM) Scott Podsednik going down alone didn't cause this team to lose a 15 game lead. They didn't lose a 15 game lead now did they. Meh, I'm not going to argue this, it's been beaten to death before and we all know where everyone else stands on the issue.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 09:43 AM) season ticket holders were given a chance to get weekend passes even after they have sold out, just and FYI, I will probably go only one day and will have my pass for distribution. Rock, I was just joking with ribbie before, YOU have always been my favorite poster.

A little randomness here but I thought this picture was really cool from espn.com:

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Oct 21, 2005 -> 12:58 AM) Does anyone here think that prick Erik Kuselias will live up to his word if the Sox win the WS? What did he say he'd do?? Hell, I'm still waiting for somebody on here to eat a hat.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 11:10 PM) Damn, that is one long sentence. This coming from qwerty the grammar master?? I'll fix it, my bad.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 11:01 PM) They may also have been due to the Sox not getting the same pitching as the 1st half of the season. Correct, I shouldn't have made it sound like that was only because of scott but I think highly of him for various reasons, there really aren't to many other leadoff hitters I would rather have.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 10:17 PM) I did that a while back and may have deleted it on accident. Why doesn't that surprise me.
