QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 12:28 AM) Found the NY tiebreaker... Kickin our divisions ass pays off again.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 12:29 AM) 4) June 15 against the Diamondbacks. The Sox are down 6-1 in the 6th then go on to explode for a season high 10 runs that same inning to avoid a sweep and beat the D-backs 12-6. More importantly, the birth of the rally mojo.

QUOTE(knightni @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 11:53 PM) Rowand, you want a Hot Carl? :headshake I hope you get banned for that.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 08:37 PM) Sox are still playing for home field ad all the way through... They also owe it to the NYY, BOS, CLE and MLB NOT to tank their lineup THAT BAD!!! 2-3 subs a game, not all of em...Plus Paulie is looking for RBI 100 so he needs to be in the lineup too... Id keep Paulie in, Everett, Rowand and Pods for sure, make sure the hot ones stay hot and the guys struggling pick it up!!! Let AJ rest for sure!!! I want Carl to be in the lineup everyday.

QUOTE(bulokis @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 11:45 PM) where did you get that Sox' group pix for your avatar? Look at the pictures thread a few threads down bul, it's in there.

QUOTE(Benchwarmerjim @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:04 PM) since this still ahs the Twins name on it.. lol Mike Sweeney absolutly OWNED the Twins this year 24 hits in 49 at bats .490 average Well now you know how we feel every single year.

QUOTE(Punch and Judy Garland @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 11:08 PM) I need this explained to me: If the BoSawx and Cleveland both take two out of three this weekend-we have a three way tie. How do the logisitics of time workout? Is it division game on Monday, Wildcard on Tuesday? What does this do to the Tuesday scheduled games? Would we be bumped back to Wednesday evening then? Its sounds like a 3-way tie thrwos a monkeywrench into the schedule unlike a one game playoff on Monday Everything you said is correct.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 10:54 PM) This last one is my favorite. My new wallpaper. EDIT: Well it was until I saw goldy's masterpiece

QUOTE(Pauly8509CWS @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 10:52 PM) I think one of my top plays was in Minny when Jenks threw three straight hooks for strikes to Lew Ford to K him looking to end the game. Phenomenal. My favorite Jenks moment was the at bat vs. Vlad. Vlad had 0 chance.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:38 PM) Can you essplain? There's a possibility that we still might have to have a one game playoff with Cleveland? Sorry if my post was unclear, I meant for the yanks and bosox to have a playoff for the east we'd have to lose our series.

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 10:26 PM) monday will be the day i do an entire week's worth of work, because i will be missing many,many classes next week I'm missing more.

God, I can't wait till Tuesday.

QUOTE(EvilMonkey @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:17 PM) I just hope the Sox don't get screwed like last time they were in the playoffs by having 11am start time during the week. That sucked last time. We have the best record in the AL, we should get the choic game times. f*** the Yank-mes or those OTHER sox. We'll get the 1 central or primetime start. EDIT: Actually I was basing that 1 central start on the fact that we played a west coast team but yeah same thing in 2000 so nevermind.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:13 PM) I wish I could add an option that said "Death." What about the drays?? I think they deserve it.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:14 PM) Earlier ESPN was saying... 1 win OR a Red Sox AND a Yankees loss sealed homefield throughout Ok, so that means we do hold the tie breaker over the yankees. Thanks for the info greasy.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) One more win/New York loss, I think... Do we hold the tiebreaker over them?? Cause we split head to head.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 09:08 PM) Cool, thanks Brian So the schedule is (no times are known yet) Tuesday @ Chicago Wednesday @ Chicago Friday on the road Saturday on the road Sunday @ Chicago I guess they've yet to clinch home field in the first round just yet. They've clinched homefield in the first round just not throughout yet.

I have to go with the yanks right now. They're playing well and Boston isn't. I'm hoping that Boston wins 2 of 3 this weekend then the yanks beat them on Monday. EDIT: Actually I take the Monday comment back, if Boston wins 2 of 3 and plays a tiebreaker game that means we lost the series to cleveland.

Hey mods, I'm sure we're going to get a lot of requests, could we maybe get a tickets thread pinned?

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 08:48 PM) we do play on Wednesday. I got the tickets today in the mail. Boy do they look beautiful. I haven't even seen my tickets yet as they're sitting back home all by themselves.

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 08:48 PM) I voted yes for both.. If anything leave Geoff Blum or someone like that off the roster.. El Duque and his playoff experince will definitely be necessary and BMac is pitching great right now.. What would we be telling him if he wasn't on the roster? Can I ask for what?? If he pitches he's coming out of the bullpen where he'd probably get rocked more then he already has and the fact that it would take him like half the game to get warm.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 08:49 PM) If the above happens, I like our chances. A lot. Count has been untouchable recently, MB has been better at home this year IIRC, Garcia has been ridiculous on the road, and Garland is probably good for a quality start at the very least. Yup, Mark's been better at home. That's the rotation I wanted and it looks like that's exactly what we're going to get. Couldn't be happier today.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 08:27 PM) Do we already know? I assume we don't find that out until we know who the matchup is. I just hope the Sox don't play on Wednesday or Thursday during the afternoon (got 2 big ass tests on Thursday and Wednesday I'd like to study for them). On a sidenote, I'm assuming its 2 at home, 2 on the road and then the final at home in the best of 5? Yes. We play on Tuesday for sure and I'm about 90 percent sure we play on weds, offday thursday and then friday, saturday and sunday.

5. Opening day, just awesome to be at the first opening day in ages at home, 1-0 win felt so awesome after last years opening day debacle. 4. Game 2, Pauly and Jermaine homer for a 4 run 9th and win. 3. Aj's walkoff against the dodgers, aaron tied it with a single up the middle in the 9th and then BOOM aj goes oppo to win it. 2. Rally Crede last Tuesday, we needed that win big time and we got it. 1. Today, 'nuff said.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) Predictions of the lineup: Timo (7), Iguchi, Borchard (9), Everett, Gload (3), Crede, Blum (6), Anderson (8), Casanova Ozzie said he's playing this series straight up out of respect for the bosox and yankees. I know I want to see some guys get a day off but I definitely want Carl playing these last 3, he's starting to look good again and I think it'd be a real bad time to take him out of the lineup.
