QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 11:35 PM) No, it was with the Royals. You are right about the "not successful" part, though. When was the last time the White Sox signed a manager with MLB managerial experience? Hopefully that trend will keep Bell and TLR away. My main beef with TLR is that his players seem to feud with him to the point that they get traded (Rolen, Rasmus). TLR is just a poor choice for the direction the Sox need to go

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 11:28 PM) Ozzie expected to be named manager after Wednesday's game for Florida. A three year deal. Lies, has to be a 4 year deal.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 11:19 PM) So if it's already decided that Cooper is coming back, the Sox probably already know who their next manager is. Well if that's true, that means no LaRussa which would be good news.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 11:18 PM) Marlins have Hanley Ramirez, the face of their franchise who happens to be lazier than Alex Rios. Just today, their #2 pitcher (Nolasco) was called out by the organization as well. Also, it will be interesting to see if Ozzie handles Josh Johnson better than Girardi did. What are you talking about? Josh Johnson is the compensation.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 09:26 PM) This is the most perfect night of baseball that I can remember in years. No s***. What an unbelievable f***in night!

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 10:03 PM) I figured there should probably be a "Catch all" for the rumors that will be comin gin the next few hours/days/weeks. If the admins feels this is not necessary, please delete. This thread is very necessary, good call. I say Oney Guillen for manager.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 06:39 AM) Even though I told myself I wouldn't give the Sox any more of my money until our idiot manager is gone, I made the big splash of purchasing a 3 dollar ticket so I could see Mark's possible last start as a member of the Sox. QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 09:16 AM) I'll watch on TV, but I'm not breaking my word just to see one guy pitch. See what I did there?

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 09:56 PM) @SI_JonHeyman Jon Heyman excellent white sox pitching coach don cooper is staying with team. its a win-win nite for #chisox 6 minutes ago via web Very good night.

I actually was just going to stay away from this thread because I really have nothing good to say about this guy at the moment but Victory managed to ruin an appreciation thread for the guy he has wet dreams about. Seriously, October 26, 2005 is the best moment of my youngish life and Ozzie will always be apart of that but I seriously wish this guy nothing but the worst in his future endeavors. The guy helped to destroy and make a mockery of a team that I live and die for, add that to his complete lack of class and his idiot f***in son and I can't even pretend to be a little sad. It's a great f***in day. Sorry quin, I didn't mean to derail your thread but I couldn't resist after what I read from Victory.

Brent Morel get to manage tomorrow? He's had a good month, I say let him go for it.

This is seriously f***in great!! I'm so damn happy!!!!!!

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 11:52 AM) Mr. Perfect was Nostradamus?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 06:59 AM) More than fishy. i watched that play 5 times, no Bears were touching the Packers when the "hold" occurred. Apparently it was the jam on the gunner and it occured right away. I haven't seen the replay enough but I've heard that you can only see it in a real time replay but supposedly it did occur. Real cool play though, too bad it was wasted.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 02:15 AM) Oh my goodnezz. this reminds me of the time when my buddy quinarye jack-knifed vixtory mc88 in the buttocks and let him live aferwards. and i like greg. i really do. greg knows this. but we harnor no particular feelings when it coes to ozzie. hje know this. i hate ozzie like i hate republicans and then how i hate people are famous for being famous. i can't tand it and i will put an end to it vrry soon. Fun weekend?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 07:58 AM) I don't remember his name in 2004, thought I could be wrong. Ya, I don't recall that either.

QUOTE (ptatc @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 07:51 AM) Yes but none of them had as much of an ego or is as much of an a@@ as Jackson. Jackson's success was more player talent driven than anyone. The guy divorced his wife and started dating the owner's daughter in LA just to get the GM fired to take his GM position. Whether the guy is an asshole or not, he's the only one that could have made the egos he had work together. Not to mention he was always smart enough to stay out of Jordan and Kobe's way when it came to on the court play. He obviously had insane talent but he's still the best basketball coach of all time.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Sep 26, 2011 -> 03:09 AM) Kloess is 26, but had a great year. Maybe he's a late bloomer? Anyone have a scouting report on him?

Even though I told myself I wouldn't give the Sox any more of my money until our idiot manager is gone, I made the big splash of purchasing a 3 dollar ticket so I could see Mark's possible last start as a member of the Sox.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 25, 2011 -> 09:45 PM) Ellsbury just won the MVP. Could see that homer coming a mile away, Proctor was complete f***in garbage that whole inning. QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 25, 2011 -> 11:13 PM) Definitely. I didn't think the Rays would have even gotten to within 0.5, but they managed it. The Red Sox win tonight should fuel them to finish strong, though. Eh, sorry to use a cliche but momentum is as good as the next days starting pitcher, granted, I believe the Sawx are going to grab the WC as well but one bad inning from Beckett and all the good feeling from last nights victory is gone.

LETS GO YANKEES!!! Walk these assholes off please!!!!!!!!

QUOTE (zenryan @ Sep 23, 2011 -> 04:56 PM) I do feel horrible for the people who are the hourly workers working the events(parking attendants,concessions,ushers,etc), people who own bars that shows the games,etc. People tend to forget about those people. My buddy is a video editor for the NBA and is just dying because of this right now.

What a bunch of crap. Awful Kenny.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 23, 2011 -> 08:18 AM) League starts canceling training camp and exhibition games. So f***in depressing. f***.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 23, 2011 -> 11:20 AM) Holy s***. I'm surprised this hasn't gotten more pub. I didn't realize how close he was to leading all three categories. QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Sep 23, 2011 -> 12:06 PM) No s***. I had no idea either. Thirded. Damn.

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 22, 2011 -> 09:53 PM) Beltran wasn't even an option for me, he is a Griifey type move.. No thanks. The Sox needed an upgrade at 2b, CF, DH, and 3b.. Since you have 26 million tied up in CF and DH.. they needed to address 2b and 3b.. Betemit is a wash to Morel, one was hitting, the other is fielding, I will take the fielding guy right now... A-Ram would have been nice, and he gets to stay in Chicago.. I don't know if Henrdy would have asked to much.. Problem is.. Zero Cash, so that is a wash. Mike Aviles would have been nice, can play 2b, hitting is a nice upgrade over Bacon, can also play 3b as well. And I would think the Royals were not asking a ton for him.. Since the trade is hitting in the .348.. Ideally, he hits in the #2 hole.. move Alexi down to 3 And here is your new lineup 1. Jp 2. Aviles 3. Alexi 4. Paulie 5. Carlos 6. AJ 7. Rios 8. Dunn 9. Morel. Dunn is still there, but in a spot that doesn't hurt to much.. and at the time you think he might break out of it. Ok, really? That's your impact trade? Ha Ha Ha
