QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 5, 2005 -> 10:59 AM) Just so we do not lose count: Excuses for why Botch is a loser from the Botch apologists: - He is a long reliever, so when put into short inning situations, he is bound to fail. It is obviously Ozzie's fault there. - He is a starter (that is what he excels in ... cough cough cough cough ). Hence he is going to fail when asked to pitch in any relief situation. - He is still waaaaaaaay tooooooo young, so cut him some slack. - He has been under-used recently hence it has hurt his ability and confidence. This is all Ozzie and/or Kenny's fault. Major conspiracy theory here to prevent Botch from winning a Cy Young Any more? You are complaining about the 11th man on our staff who has an era under 4. Give it a rest.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ May 4, 2005 -> 11:07 PM) WhiteSox.com has DJ's homerun calls for Pierzynski and Crede. Crede's homer: "UHHH-OHHHHHH... TIED UP!" Pierzynski's homer: "There goes a fly ball... WAY BACK... UHHH-OHHHHHH... TWO RUN BLAST!"

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 4, 2005 -> 10:55 PM) When do the D-Rays come to KC? What about the yankees?

QUOTE(redandwhite @ May 4, 2005 -> 10:47 PM) You don't refuse to sign somebody because of a 21 year old who has yet to start a Major League game. You can never have enough pitching, not to mention Hernandez and Contreras can't be replaced? Of course they can be replaced but before the year started it seemed like garland was replaceable also. My point is the sox weren't going to sign Jon to a long term deal when he's been an average to slighty above average with Brandon ready to go.

QUOTE(Spod=Ratings @ May 4, 2005 -> 10:36 PM) because i will be at school :banghead I'm going to find my way to get out early tomorrow.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ May 4, 2005 -> 10:30 PM) I agree that the Spurs should win, but it's teams like the Sonics that give them the most trouble. To beat the Spurs you absolutely have to have guys who can shoot from the perimiter. Seattle has that and then some. Also, Rashard Lewis has a history of s***ting on the Spurs. I wouldn't be surprised to see this series go seven. You're definitely right about seattle. I just think so highly of San Antonio and I think it'll be a 5 or 6 game series, that being said I wouldn't be surprised one bit if it goes 7 but I'd be completely shocked if Seattle did indeed win the series.

This one definitely isn't going to be easy with Greinke out on the bump, hopefully Jose can continue to do what he's been doing all year. GO SOX!!!!!

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ May 4, 2005 -> 10:23 PM) Yeah, because back in 94 we were off to a better start than we have now. I forgot about that. Not! When you have the best team in baseball, breaking records and off to its best start in its history(not since 94 as many of you guys like to use that number) then it is pretty damn pathetic. Did you enjoy the cell tonight??

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ May 4, 2005 -> 10:24 PM) Spurs with a 10 point won over Denver. I'm really looking forward to their match-up with the Sonics. Sonics gave them problems all year. Seattle's a very good team but San Antonio is the class of the west,imo. The spurs will win in 5 or 6. Then the spurs will move on to face the winner of the Dallas-Houston series in the conference finals.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ May 4, 2005 -> 09:09 PM) lmao@a based loaded walk to Damian Miller of all people. Cubs lose 4-3 Absolute worst way to lose a baseball game imo.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:21 PM) Anyone ever watch this? I think it's one of the few shreds of credibility ESPN has left, and I really like Bob Ley. I'm also a big fan of the show.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:55 PM) I don't know if anybody has really talked about this. But the last thing we need is another 2003 esque first half from Paulie, especially with Frank out. I've got to believe that at some point "I hope i'm wrong" that our pitching is gonna come back to earth a little bit. We're gonna need him to start hitting. Any thoughts? I'm worried about him a bit right now cause his approach just sucks. The good thing is though nothing seems to by mechanically wrong with his swing, so if he is able to keep that left shoulder closed a bit more and serve the ball into right field he should be able to come out of it quickly, that being said, his mindset is all screwed up right now and Walker needs to have a talking with him.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:50 PM) Sox back up 3.5 games again!!!! Don't sell us short NUKE , it's 4.5.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:50 PM) Ha, really?? If so, that's usually the exact opposite of what he does. Wow, just saw the final out on BBTN, ya that ball was smoked.

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:50 PM) Wow Lew Ford smoked one but the Twins lose. Ha, really?? If so, that's usually the exact opposite of what he does.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:49 PM) FIELDERS CHOICE AT SECOND! GAME OVER! TRIBE WIN! 4.5 game lead.

f***, ford is up?? He'll probably get jammed and hit a broken bat single somewhere.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:47 PM) Walked him. Bases loaded, two outs. Uh oh.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:45 PM) Jacque Jones is batting for Wickman, FWIW... I got a feeling you messed that sentence up.

AND THAT'S A WHITE SOX WINNER

Nice play gooch.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:43 PM) Two on, one out in the ninth for the Twinks. Blah, have they ever gone out 1-2-3 in a 9th inning in which they're down by 1 or 2?

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:20 PM) Shingo will pitch the 9th. There's another right prediction tonight by me

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 4, 2005 -> 08:40 PM) Is the book out on Konerko? Off-speed stuff down and you got him? He looks terrible right now... As of right now, it has to be, he looks a lot like Miguel Olivo at the plate right now, just worse .

Yuck......Pauly pulls off the ball again and once again k's on that down and away breaking ball.
