Anyone tired of hearing this Tigers team compared to the 05 Sox every damn day?

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 13, 2006 -> 12:31 AM) Wayne Krivsky is an idiot. lol

Carpenter is going game 2.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 06:56 PM) I figure you watched this on PTI as well. I have to imagine the starting pitcher the Yankees would be asking for is Brandon McCarthy. On that note, no deal. Realistically, we'd have to include him to beat the Angels offer. Not worth it. I agree no deal if they insist on Brandon but like I've said before, I think there are ways to trade for Alex with out having to give up Brandon.

For those who watched espn today, it seems that if the media has picked up on the ARod for Crede and a sp rumors.

QUOTE(longshot7 @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 05:23 PM) 5) We play the NL Central again. Hosting Houston & Florida and going to Philly & Pittsburgh. (so much for variety every year.) thoughts? That's two teams from the NL Central(not including the two Cubs series) and 2 from the NL East, so there actually is some variety this year. And to be honest, the schedule isn't something I concern myself with that much. If the Sox are good enough to get in, then they'll get in no matter what the schedule looks like. I know that sounds cliche, but it's the truth.

7:30 game, eh? I think I will tune in.

I think the high today in Carbondale was in the high 50's or around 60. I was freezing when I walked outside.

QUOTE(Brian @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 04:08 PM) Speaking of Stevenson, the annual Warren vs. Stevenson rivalry game is tomorrow night in Lincolnshire. Shameless plug, I will be broadcasting the game on 1220 AM in Lake County OR you can hear the game at www.wkrs.com as we are streaming online. Kick off around 7:30pm. Stevenson is easily the better team this year and Warren needs 1 win to get into the playoffs. If they don't do it this week they got Libertyville next week. Warren remembers last year as well.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 01:54 PM) I think a Wild Card could be the Giants... ARod's only 31....

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 01:14 AM) BoDog is taking bets... What team will Alex Rodriguez be traded to? Los Angeles Angels 3/1 Boston Red Sox 5/1 St. Louis Cardinals 9/2 Philadelphia Phillies 9/1 Chicago White Sox 7/1 Chicago Cubs 8/1 Seattle Mariners 11/1 Los Angeles Dodgers 9/1 Atlanta Braves 7/1 Field 7/2 I don't understand why the Red Sox have better odds than the White Sox. I suppose it's just because that's what people are betting, like betting the Cubs to win the WS. I guess the Cards and Phillies could land him but they have much more pressing needs and a ton more holes than the Angels or Sox to fill. I don't think Alex would be a great fit at either of those places either because of the circumstances.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 12:45 AM) Me and my pessimistic mindset. However, we have more pitching to offer than anybody and could afford that kind of move. I just don't want to think about it and get all excited, to be perfectly honest. lol. Ha, fair enough. I honestly think though all things considered there is at least a decent shot we get Alex(as good a chance as anyone else). Like Tony said, we'll be linked to this all offseason long until the situation gets settled.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 12:41 AM) With that said, if A-Rod is traded, it sure as hell won't be to us. Says who?

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 12, 2006 -> 12:11 AM) There's no shame in being shut down by Verlander, but his last two ABs against Grilli (seriously, Jason Grilli!?) and Todd Jones were pretty pathetic. I expect Bonderman to make him look foolish as well. I think we both knew he'd have trouble against Verlander but ya as you said his last bat in particular wasn't very impressive. He had a few great ones to mash.

I'm not going to lie, kind of made me happy to see Frank make the last out tonight.

Be a pretty dumb move not to have him on the 40.

Wow, that's horrible to hear. RIP

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Oct 11, 2006 -> 02:00 PM) And instead of Clemens, Pettitte, Oswalt, and Backe, the Tigers get to face the Mets/Cards pitching staffs. SO HARD I personally believe at least 3 of last years CS teams would have won this years World Series and probably all 4. JMO though.

So yesterday on Mike and Mike and BBTN, Steve Phillips basically said that this years Tigers team has a tougher road through the playoffs than last years Sox just cause we didn't have to play the Yankees: "But the White Sox didn't have to play the Yankees."

QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 11, 2006 -> 09:30 AM) Yea. We got ours on Saturday. We (ST holders) have been asking them to do this for years - the Bulls used to do it (they may still, but we are no longer bulls ticket holders so I don't know) and it was a little thing that went a long way. Will split season ticket holders get them too or just full?

QUOTE(Soxy @ Oct 11, 2006 -> 09:21 AM) but I am making the dog wear angel wings and probably a halo. Poor thing. I got a few ideas this year, we'll see what happens.

QUOTE(Steff @ Oct 11, 2006 -> 08:01 AM) Saw 3 is coming out on 10/27. I'm a big fan of the franchise so I'm looking forward to it. ^^^ Still haven't seen jackass. My friends and I for the last 3 weekends keep saying we're going to go and just always end up doing something else. Hopefully this weekend we'll finally go, cause I really want to see that movie.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Oct 11, 2006 -> 12:06 AM) Really? Both guys are great defensively. The first guy people are willing to give 5/50 to. The second guy got his contract after that year and is now considered overpaid. Ya, it's Juan. Like I said I missed it some how. Joe's season is definitely better but I see the point you're making. Juan definitely isn't overpaid though, I think most people here agree with that.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Oct 11, 2006 -> 12:04 AM) Juan Uribe's '04? Yup. Good call. I missed that some how when sorting through stats.

No one from 00-06 with these numbers. Who is the mystery man?
