Homer streak came to an end with a ridiculous play by the CF'er last night. After that I overswung about 3 more times.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 30, 2013 -> 02:38 PM) So much for Peavy the ace. Yeah, he's been good in April and May again...but that style of pitching doesn't work as well during the summer months when the ball's jumping like it is today. Good thing we dont play at Wrigley with the wind blowing out more than twice all season.

Well, the Hawks won.

LOLOLOL

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 30, 2013 -> 02:35 PM) Probably, but we are seeing the same things over and over. It may be time to send a message to someone. Anyone. I think you'll see some movement in the next couple of weeks. Beckham is coming back for one, second Phegley isnt going to stay down there forever while Flowers cant hit.

Peavy implosion.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 30, 2013 -> 02:14 PM) Rick Hahn is going to have to take a break from the nap he has been on since getting his job. We were just 4 games back from 1st in our division. Your judgement is very cloudy when dealing with the Cubs.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 30, 2013 -> 12:03 PM) I just want to point out that the most blatant flop of this series, Wade falling out of bounds as if he was shoved, was not fined LOL, thats right.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ May 30, 2013 -> 12:07 PM) I bet all of them go to different schools. Sometimes these guys say they want to team up, and then they start taking their visits and they ended up liking different schools/coaches. Rock what's the shelf life on Matta? Didn't I read like 2 seasons ago that he had some really painful back/leg condition? I remember thinking he only had a few seasons left and he all but admitted as much. Maybe I remember it wrong though. He still does, he wears a pretty heavy brace because he has "drop foot." The reports lately are OSU has made him so comfortable that he could be in as long as 10 years but probably less. They just built him a brand new practice facility this offseason and are giving him alot of freedom to do whatever he wants within his program. http://m.yahoo.com/w/ygo-frontpage/lp/stor...US&.lang=en http://www.cbssports.com/collegebasketball...on-stays-active Second article is the best one on the condition and the surgery that nearly cost him his foot. Frankly the guy has taken the program to heights never seen before, and I hope he never leaves. However its inevitable. Jeff Boals was someone we thought may be groomed to replace him but he's like the 4th guy we've thought would. s***, Groce was initially one of those.

Jones not having Ill on his final list hints to me that Okafor is not seriously considering them.

I legitimately thought I was going to have a heart attack last night, what a great series. And the chirping from Detroit fans on FB is hilarious. When they went up 3-1 it was all about their hockey team and how we are overrated, now its hey the Tigers are soooo good and the Sox suck. LOL, most of them moved to Chicago after college anyway.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ May 30, 2013 -> 08:28 AM) The morning before the Golson stuff broke I was told Golson and Daniels were off the team due to a cheating scandal. Im guessing he is indeed gone then. Golston is now only "suspended" until the spring at which time he'll be reinstated.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 29, 2013 -> 06:09 PM) I can't take seriously any team with a guy with a .153 batting average. I'm back to where I just wish we'd release the guy if he can't hit .210. For gawd's sakes ... 153?? And Caufield, the basic premise of my Dunn debate during the Ozzie years was I was saying he had to play him and not bench him because of his contract. You can't sit a guy making that kind of money. I guess I still feel that way, but years later I just wish the Sox would eat the contract and release him. He really is a disgrace to the game of baseball (hitting wise; I realize he's a good guy). Playing him over Konerko today was ridiculous. Konerko kills the Cubs and we throw Dunn who cant hit anyone in the lineup.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 29, 2013 -> 04:26 PM) Just when the Sox get you to start liking them again, they tank against the Cubs. It's laughable. It was only two games.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 29, 2013 -> 03:57 PM) No he is cannon fodder and not needed after this year. ADA? Sure hope you have someone else in mind for CF

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 29, 2013 -> 03:17 PM) Yeah, but CT could literally carry him on the final challenge. Are they bringing in the giant from San Diego as well?

Oh and not playing Konerko who KILLS the Cubs to play Adam (mendoza line upside) Dunn is ridiculous.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 29, 2013 -> 03:49 PM) pretty clear what the book is on the sox: they'll chase breaking balls out of the zone. Hack, hack, hacking lineup.

Is Joey Crawford behind the plate? This strike zone is hilarious.

QUOTE (bbilek1 @ May 29, 2013 -> 03:07 PM) I knew in the top of the 1st when Stone said "Navarro hits Danks very well." What is crazy is I have seen Navarro bat 5 times this entire season. He has 4 HRs in those 5 ABs. He hit a PH HR two days in a row earlier in the year. His last HR he pulled a pitch up and away. Generally that would be a flyout or you would roll it over. Today it was a pop that somehow stayed fair and drifted out.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 29, 2013 -> 02:45 PM) I haven't seen the rest of the cast - if there's enough of the next wave in there they could easily be targeted early? Wes is all show no go. He's buckled on a final challenge.

QUOTE (fathom @ May 29, 2013 -> 02:51 PM) Sorry Danks, not facing a AAA team today. His stuff is just not very good, which is no surprise based on his minor league outings. Wind blowing and a guy hit his first multi-HR game of his career.

QUOTE (Boogua @ May 29, 2013 -> 02:11 PM) CT and Wes are going to be teammates. That should be pretty insane. Can't wait. Werent they last time?

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ May 29, 2013 -> 02:15 PM) Dunn back to his ole ways. Sox can't afford him and his streakiness. Its hard to watch him hit. He looks nothing like he did in his Reds days.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 29, 2013 -> 01:27 PM) Sounds about right, imo his top 3 (in order): Duke OSU MSU Bossi (rivals) said Okafor prefers OSU while Jones prefers Duke. Not sure if its opinion or inside information.
