How about that penalty at the end of the play? LOL. -

One of my good friend's got married this past weekend and had about 15 family members that couldn't get into town because of this. No fun. -

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 03:10 PM) Love it. I'm not ready to write him off completely yet, but he definitely needs to sit for a while. Keep his chin up, keep working hard, and he'll get another chance. I actually give Marrone a s*** ton of credit here. The Bills actually have a pretty decent squad if they can get any type of qb play, he didn't want until it was too late to make this move. -

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 02:55 PM) Yes. He was good the first two weeks but it wasn't really fluid, just kind of wide open passes. He's played terribly the past 2 weeks. Missing wide open guys, not sensing pressure, taking big hits, throwing really, really bad INTs. If it wasn't for the lucky 80 yard bomb yesterday to Mike Williams, his line would look even worse. Frankly, just having a guy who can hit a pass 10-15 yards downfield on a semi-consistent basis will be a breath of fresh air. Isn't it fun drafting qb's in the 1st round that don't pan out? -
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 02:35 PM) Let Oney and Ozney become Twins fans. Their behavior sitting behind the White Sox dugout hoping the White Sox finish last ( I was sitting right behind them) about a month ago was shockingly (sarcasm) classless. If they want to hate the White Sox, fine. But don't go to USCF and sit in White Sox house seats for nothing, and do that. The Guillen kids would never be classless, that's an outrageous claim.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 02:17 PM) I never thought I’d see the day were Stewie Griffin said “eat my shorts” and Bart Simpson said “What the deuce?”. How was the episode? I've been over both shows for a while but I do want to see that episode.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 01:50 PM) CM Sandow (or DS Punk) would be hilarious. It'd be so terrific but I think they'll stay away from it. Hogan's there tonight...oh joy.

I'm not worried about it because I don't think it's going to happen but I'm definitely not a fan of bullpenning Rodon for this season. We need starting pitchers, if he's going to be on the Major League team, he should be starting.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 01:08 PM) A really disappointing thing about yesterday is the offense really was humming along until Bennett couldnt break the plane. I really do think he broke it but somehow we had no good camera angle to confirm that. -
Let's Grade the Players, Coaches, Hahn for 2014
Rowand44 replied to greg775's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 12:00 PM) That particular trade didn't work, but as has been discussed a zillion times, the philosophy behind the trade is valid. I fault Hahn less for that one. Oh I completely agree. I was extremely happy when that trade was made as that was the exact type of deal that I wanted him to make but Davidson was obviously awful this year so I can't rate the trade a success even though I love the thought process behind it. -

Rowand44 replied to greg775's topic in Pale Hose Talk
QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 29, 2014 -> 11:46 AM) We lost 89 games. Team has pathetic bullpen and defense. It's going to be very hard to fix the defense. It really is. You guys are kind graders IMO. Yes he deserves eternal praise for Abreu and Eaton. How could Hahn get an A? You have to remember that he didn't build the team from scratch so you can't just base his rating off of the Sox win-loss record. I'd personally probably give him a B because I feel like there were a few things he could have done a bit better and Davidson being god awful didn't help things but overall he had a pretty good year. -
I really wish I could be at Raw tonight, always interesting to see how the crowd is going to be. I want CM Sandow to happen so bad.

Barring Gostkowski outscoring Ridley by 20 tonight, I'm going to be 4-0 in my main league for the first time ever. I'll also be 3-0 in my leagues these last 2 weeks. Still just waiting for everything to fall apart. -
QUOTE (scs787 @ Sep 26, 2014 -> 04:36 PM) Well then..... Chicago White Sox @whitesox 6m Nate Jones said he feels great after surgery & that his back and hip also feel good. He hopes to begin throwing the week before Thanksgiving ....So much for him being out all/most of next year?? No idea how the recovery on that works but it'll be interesting to see what the velocity is like.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 26, 2014 -> 03:23 PM) I think if you transplant the 7 world series and 5 championships and all the other post season accomplishments the talk is still pretty high. Chipper always got a lot of credit....just add 4 world series championships and it would be a heck of a lot more, imo. Did Maddux get any less credit because he spent the majority of his career in Atlanta? Fact that Jeter handled the spotlight made things crazier but its hard to put his career elsewhere because not many guys have his post-season accolades. Chipper and especially Maddux were much better players than Jeter and they get no where near the attention he gets. Once again, I have nothing against Jeter, he's a definite HOF no matter where he played but the media definitely overrates him, there's no doubt about that. Just like the angry mob of internet fans underrate him.
-
QUOTE (shysocks @ Sep 26, 2014 -> 03:13 PM) My whole point is, take Jeter's career and transplant it to some other city. That is a hall-of-famer and a legend when you throw in all the postseason accomplishments. It is not somebody that 12% of the people voting in a dumb poll are calling one of the 5 greatest players ever. That's all I'm saying. And you're absolutely correct. I think this is a fair take.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 26, 2014 -> 01:57 PM) I wouldn't write off a guy like Johnson yet, any more than I would Davidson. But in both cases, they need to come out guns blazing next year, or then I do start to think "bust". I haven't given up on Davidson because I don't think his skillset deteriorated, he was just plain awful this year. I've given up on Johnson because if his stuff is where it was last year then he's just not a good pitcher.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 25, 2014 -> 04:13 PM) Best K/BB ratio in MLB history this season I feel like this should be getting more notoriety, that's a pretty amazing stat.

QUOTE (shysocks @ Sep 26, 2014 -> 01:38 PM) Presented without comment Regular season: .309/.377/.440, 8.6 BB% 14.6 K% Postseason: .308/.374/.465, 9.0 BB% 18.4 K% Yeesh that's kind of crazy how similar they are. I guess when you're in the post season so damn much your numbers tend to even out, still crazy though.
