QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 10:30 PM) Kane? You know it.

Forgot to mention this before but I was in Wrigleyville Friday night and you'll never guess which athlete I saw walking around absolutely hammered out of his mind...

QUOTE (iamshack @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 09:37 PM) I don't mean that you are necessarily unattracted to them. But say they grow on you in that sense over the course of time... I think you're really the only person that can answer that when you're talking about someone you want to date/marry or whatever.

QUOTE (Ranger @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 09:19 PM) I understand nobody likes Kotsy and he's everybody's favorite target, There's a reason for that, he sucks.

I can't be the only one who loves Tosh.0? I'll also openly admit to watching Jersey Shore. The show makes you dumber every second you watch it but it's seriously entertaining. EDIT: Just read the first page of the thread, good to see I'm not the only one who thinks Tosh is hilarious.

QUOTE (flavum @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 06:49 AM) Floyd has made 22 starts. 1st 11 starts: 6.64 ERA, 61 innings, 78 hits, 45 ER, 23 BB, 49 K, 7 HR 2nd 11 starts: 1.06 ERA, 76.1 innings, 54 hits, 9 ER, 17 BB, 63 K, 0 HR That's right. Floyd has not given up a homer in 11 starts. 77 innings. That's impressive. He did something similar last season as well, apparently he's not a fan of April and May either.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Aug 2, 2010 -> 03:56 PM) Yeesh, that read like a story from the Onion. That's exactly what I thought it was.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 1, 2010 -> 07:16 PM) Winstons Bagels, Jimmy Johns, Papa Johns. In that order after hours Don Taco, Jimmy Johns, Wise Guys for me. Fortunately I've been back in the burbs for a few months now so I haven't been killing my wallet nearly as much with drunk food as I do in the Dale.

QUOTE (T R U @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:53 AM) Does anyone else order way too much food when they have been drinking? I went through whataburger and order like $12 worth of s*** and I ate half of it and realized there was no way I could eat the rest of this stuff.. Oh ya.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:45 PM) Jesus Christ, this is the most sadistic and cynical fanbase in all of sports. Maybe, but the fact is that this dh spot is one of the bigger debacles I can ever remember when it comes to a competing team in baseball. Everyone in the f***in world except our brilliant management knew this was going to be a complete disaster. Then we heard that if that stupid idea failed then Kenny would for sure take care of it by the deadline, low and behold it's passed 3 o'clock on July 31st and we're stuck with the same bulls***. Whether anybody likes it or not, people have a right to be pissed about this and it goes back to spring training.

QUOTE (PlunketChris @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:37 PM) 13-9 for Detroit last year when they went to game 163, 14-11 for Tampa bay in 2008 in the year they went to the world series. He knows how to pitch in a pennant race. Always nice when someone uses win loss record for a pitcher to try and make a point. If he knows how to pitch well in a pennant race then why was he so god damn awful in the 2nd half of last season?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:37 PM) Ok, and? its over. Thome is a twin. It's really hard for some of us to get over it when it was literally the easiest decision any organization could make and we still somehow made the wrong one.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:32 PM) Wrong, it is that weak. Flowers, Viciedo and Hudson (before the trade) were the only three names you ever heard about from our side. Because there's flat nothing else after that. It's not perception. It's cold reality. Indeed. Not to mention the injuries to Peavy and Mitchell in spring training really killed our chances to land an impact player as well.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:32 PM) No it didn't. Our paper thin system had guys that the Nats wanted, but we refused to part with them cause the asking price was too high. I think his point was, that if we had a bit of a deeper system then parting with some of these guys wouldn't be as big of an issue.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:30 PM) Let's face it, the best bet for Sox to have a productive DH is for Viciedo to become the everyday starter. However, I give that a 1% chance of happening. Exactly.

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:24 PM) Do you understand how waivers works? Most likely it will be for a PTBNL with prospects going later on. I do, apparently you do not.

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 31, 2010 -> 02:19 PM) Waiver Wire Trades. August 30th. Understand now? If Scott or Laroche could have been had for cheap it would have already happened so you're making no sense. And the only chance we have to get Laroche now is if the DBacks literally want nothing in return which just isn't the case.

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 12:47 PM) Just like we couldn't add Peavy and Rios last season because of "payroll flexibility." LOL, tell me another funny one...... My god, we had plenty of money to work with last season, adding Peavy and Rios is what made us not have the flexibility to add a higher priced dh.

QUOTE (AWhiteSoxinNJ @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 12:43 PM) Is that you Jerry? Are you physically paying $8 million dollars? lol, you do realize that adding that 8 million dollars does limit this teams flexibility to make other moves?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 12:41 PM) Jackson isn't a great move. If he stays, it does give us a MUCH better chance at reaching the post-season, and it adds one more pitcher in depth that could actually start a playoff game...as great as Freddy has been, I'm assuming nobody wants him starting Game 4 in NY or Tampa Bay. And at this point nobody wants Edwin Jackson starting that game either.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 12:35 PM) Let's bring up another name. Daniel Cortes, or we can add Tyler Lumsden in for good measure. I remember when he was supposed to be around a Top 45-55 prospect in all of MILB. Hudson never came close to that level with most talent evaluators, let's be honest. You're trying to argue that KW does a good job of pitching evaluation by bringing up the trade for Mike Macdougal?

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Jul 30, 2010 -> 12:33 PM) I like this Jackson trade. He's got great stuff and he's 26. He's not as bad as his ERA indicates. 4.27 FIP, .318 BABIP. His fly ball rate is only 30%. People overrated Hudson on this board, he was a no. 3 starter-at best. People can say that Hudson is overrated all they want but the point is that this is an extreme over pay no matter how the f*** you look at it and there's absolutely no denying that. This trade blows.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Jul 27, 2010 -> 11:44 PM) Dont worry, you just prevented another perfect game from being recorded in just a ridiculous year. Haha. Well, the bad news than is that he still proceeded to throw the no hitter.

In my softball league tonight, I ended up ruining my pitchers perfect game when I made a throwing error at 3rd base. I really f***in suck at life.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 27, 2010 -> 03:17 PM) Or that they're not foolish enough to think they can win this year or next year without a 5th starter. Winner. The only way Huddy is getting traded is if we have another deal to bring a sp over here.
