QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 22, 2012 -> 09:48 PM) He is underrated IMO also. He has pitched some great games but as usual he has a bad one and the calls for him to be traded pop up. You hear that about other Sox players also. Apparently you are only as good as your last good effort Is there a player on the sox you don't think is underrated? Anyways, this is Gavin Floyd, streaky as all hell, I'm sure in a couple of months, he'll have a 6 week stretch where he's one of the 2-3 best starters in baseball.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 22, 2012 -> 03:37 PM) And on the third day he rose again, and took his place at 1B and in the clean up spot. Well at least we all now officially know that Pauly is Jesus. I thought he was but never had confirmation until now.

If ESPN wants to hire more Erin Andrews' or Samantha Steele's then I'm all for it. Go eye candy! Anywho, I will always love Hawk but he just plain sucks at his job now a days. I'm all for a change in the booth but I certainly won't be heartbroken if he's here for a while.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 21, 2012 -> 07:02 AM) When people looked at their roster before the season they said it looked stellar (that might have been you, don't remember). Yes, Billups got hurt, but they also added height since then which was their preseason weakness. Having CP3 on your roster and a low post/lob option that prevents a team from leaving the basket to challenge the midrange or driving games ought to be the setup for a stellar half court offense, unless you have a coach who simply doesn't know how to organize an offense. I'm wondering how good that team would be with Thibs, and it kinda scares me. I'VE SEEN ENOUGH, THE CLIPPERS ARE A TITLE CONTENDER. Yes, that was J4L after a preseason game I believe. Sorry Jordan, your posts in this thread just stick with me because you're so over the top most of the time.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 19, 2012 -> 09:13 PM) FOX: "Furious ninth inning Cubs comeback." Uh, no it wasn't. Would have been nice if they could have shown a good looking chick in the 9th instead of the ugly girl with the rally cap that they kept on showing...

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 19, 2012 -> 05:07 PM) Finally the voice of reason. I am so f***ing mad about Paulie's eye being closed and out a week. You wait, it will be a full week at least. This is outrageous. That f***ing bum Cub hit him on purpose. No question about it. Did he "mean" to hit him in the face? Probably not. At the time in the heat of the moment, who knows? He probably wanted to drill him in the shoulder. The media has blown this. They should be protecting one of the top three players arguably in White Sox history. THIS IS INSANE! I want revenge. Not in the face, but I want both our starters to drill cubs in the first inning. Get the long men ready, baby!! You don't mess with Paul Konerko. Hopefully Hawk will be on it the entire game. I think at this point you just remind me of a teenage girl at a Justin Bieber concert...

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ May 19, 2012 -> 04:01 PM) Garland wasn't a fan favorite. Garland didn't have half of the pure stuff Wood had. Garland didn't come back to the organization he loved for his final stop. Garland didn't win us a world series, he was part of it. Kerry struck out 20 by himself. That's the reason he's getting attention, and his retirement is a big deal in Chicago. I think people are taking the attention to mean he's one of the greatest pitchers of all time, which I don't believe anyone is claiming (correct me if I'm wrong). Most people are actually talking about how he'll be remembered a lot for what he "could have been" which is a fair point. So people love this guy because he underperformed for his career? Once again, I just don't understand the absolute love affair with this guy.

QUOTE (BigEdWalsh @ May 18, 2012 -> 07:58 PM) I think really only Greg is freaking out. But are you insinuating that it's no big deal to be hit in the FACE with an 80-something mph pitch? Watch it if you didn't see it. It sounded terrible. Another inch or so and it's maybe a Tony Conigliaro-type injury, ie., a career ending injury. No, not at all. But I am saying that there's no reason to freak out at the opponent for a pitch that most likely wasn't intentional.

I didn't get to see the game but why are we freaking out if PK was hit by a high 80's splitter?

The outpouring of love for this guy is crazy to me. All for a very average pitcher.

I enjoyed the college experience as much as anyone possibly could but the years after certainly don't have to be a downer. It took me a while to get my s*** together but now that I have I'm enjoying life more than I ever did in cdale and that includes partying just as hard on the weekends...

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 15, 2012 -> 06:11 PM) i was hoping it wasn't for Amtrak or Metra. Well I have to take the Metra on Monday and thats going to be no fun.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 15, 2012 -> 07:06 PM) Where at? Fitness Formula, the health club attached to the main building.

I work at Union Station, this is going to be an absolute nightmare.

3 of my buddies and I got our credit and backgrounds approved today to move into a place in Chicago in mid June. First time I'm going to be living in the city. So pumped!

Ran my 2nd 5k today, finished in 24:47. Still not great but a definite improvement from my 1st.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ May 1, 2012 -> 06:23 PM) Work really gets in the way of my workout time. Work at a gym like I do. Problem solved.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 6, 2012 -> 03:47 PM) What a f***ing night last night! 15 hr drink-a-thon for me. Absolute blast, tore that city up.

I'm not allowed to drink anymore

Who is ready for Cinco de Mayo?!?!?!?

I mean, I guess 2nd place is close to first...

The internets is going to have to change its pants with that Over the Limit Main Event.

I was there last night, it was a blast. Punk-Jericho was awesome. Bryan continues to be amazingness, and ya kyyle big time Goldberg chants last night. Fantastic.
