QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Jun 13, 2007 -> 01:43 PM) Danks Ks Howard, now he needs to get Burrell to get out of it. Ryan Puke - a - vick is coming in to pitch.. 5 - 3 Phils in about 2 minutes...

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:53 PM) It's not impressive....but the 2006 Buehrle you're trying to talk about would have given up 3 homers in the first 3 innings and everyone would have been complaining about his velocity. I don't care what their record is....this is the best lineup we face. don't worry...we have 'Klutch'nerko, Juan Uribe 'swing at everything' and pop-up 'Cintron' coming up...we'll be right back in this game..

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:48 PM) The Sox offense loses another one for Mark. Obviously, Mark did not pitch great this inning, but when you have no margin for error every single time you pitch, bad things are bound to happen. Seriosuly, we need some Josh Fields in the line-up. He makes the play on Jeter likely and gives us a hot bat. I agree...he's probably tired of pitching his butt off and losing.. Probably thinking..'why do I pitch my heart out for these losers (the hitters) and they can't give me a few runs?'

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:43 PM) Damon and his slider speed bat gets a perfect pitch to go oppo on. Whoever called that pitch is not very smart. Here we go...

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:40 PM) Classic Walkerball by Dye. Hips fly open, about a week early* swing, roll over to 3rd on the ground. That is textbook Greg Walker teaching at work. Per Walker..you don't even bother trying to teach 'seasoned hitters'..he doesn't want to interfere with their techniques... I guess if I see someone pulling a door that's marked 'push' I don't say anything..wouldn't want to 'interfere'...

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:35 PM) How is this bad weather Hawk? It's in the mid 50's at 8:30 at night, this beats the hell out of 90's and humid. Well..that's why there not hitting ! don't you know...it's never Kenny's fault or the teams fault when the Sox lose? (it's ALWAYS external factors i/e blizzards, CY MAYS pitching every night, bad umps)..why Kenny and Sox management couldn't be at fault for not fielding a good team...

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:32 PM) Walker will blame the cold tonight. If one of our hitters f***ing tips their hat to this pile of dung out there, they should just quit. Notice what happens though. They come up, they make contact. And after about game 3, their swing magically lengthens. No.. that's Hawks job...

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 5, 2007 -> 08:29 PM) Here is a shot of Clippard in his Yankee Uniform. Cintron with another fierce pop out !

QUOTE(TheOcho @ Jun 1, 2007 -> 07:42 PM) I hate when DJ does that. 6th inning approaching.. I'm scared...

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ May 30, 2007 -> 02:41 PM) Good instruction in the minors, and a manager that motivates them. Ozzie's bringing in MacDougal cause he's tired and doesn't want to play extra innings...

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 30, 2007 -> 02:13 PM) Strikes have definitely been an issue this year. Especially with the bullpen. Even when they aren't walking guys they are getting hammered because its 2-0 or 3-1. Someone should tell Konerko it 10 to 0 so he can get a clutch hit.. Tie Game = PK Strikeout...

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 30, 2007 -> 02:10 PM) Would you rather he trotted out a member of the worst bullpen in baseball? Which clown? (so many to choose from

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ May 30, 2007 -> 02:08 PM) All you can do now is laugh at this team and organization. We will be a one-hit wonder until we can develope talent. This team won't succeed unless we have a new LF, CF, SS, 2b and 3B next year. We also need 4 more bullpen arms in addition to Jenks, Aardsma and Thorton. So this team needs a lot and Kenny was ignorant to the fact in the off-season that this team had glaring holes and they just weren't fixed. Yes.. I don't blame Ozzie at all..he is working with what Kenny gave him.. If blame is placed..it should be on the GM..not the manager...

QUOTE(diegotony06 @ May 30, 2007 -> 01:58 PM) Here we go!! 4 Runs on 3 hits !! We can't get 4 on 15 hits !

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Feb 20, 2007 -> 10:35 AM) I bought the first Angels series on saturday when the tickets went on sale. the middle of the week Yankees series still had good seats and the Boston weekend series in August was in the upper deck already, it said you couldnt buy single games for the cubs or opening day without at least like an ozzie plan. 17 games are sold out as of today...

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 09:57 AM) I know ............ I cant tell you how much of SHOCK its going to be for me, when that place isnt there anymore. Its easily been years and years that its my pre-game ritual, walk by, say hello, grab a beer, and when the games got more crowded, meet up with whomever, grab a beer, and walk in to the park. I still think that its ridiculous that Jimbos is the closest bar to the ballpark ......... there really needs to be a couple places added across the street I also love the fact that when former SOX pre-game host Dave Wills is in town, he makes sure to stop in and say hello too Punchinello's on 31st..

Best June, 2005 When Sox scored 4 in bottom of 9th to beat Dodgers (Loudest I've ever heard the park for a non-play off game) Worst: 2004 being swept by the Twins..

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Sep 25, 2006 -> 03:02 PM) http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sp...tesox-headlines oops ! guess I better do my research before posting..

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Sep 25, 2006 -> 01:55 PM) Wow. Congratulations to the White Sox and this fanbase. I predicted this would the the 1st time the SOX ever got 3 Million (and was roundly mocked for it If I recall correctly) and was only off by 42,586. DANG! Thats basically one more good crowd, and we wouldve done it. 51 Sellouts. Congratulations SOX FANS, thats also a tribute to you too. and they did it with 4,000 less seats in the ballpark than 1991.. Funny...the Trib is the only paper that DID NOT mention this..yet - they loved to mention our lack of attendance..

QUOTE(Winning Ugly @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 11:35 AM) What really sucks is that I adopted the Padres as my NL team back in 1994 when I left Chicago for SD. Sure, I am happy the Pads are still in it but it's not the same as last year when the team I have loved since birth was top dog and the Padres also made it as the wild card. I would say "Go Padres!" but in a very low tone. Who is definitiely gone and definitely staying for the Sox per Kenny? I know Garcia and Podsednik are gone and Konerko and Dye are staying.. Does anyone know or is it just rumors? Off topic: I live in the SW Suburbs..are they still building a Metra stop on 35th street?

QUOTE(ILoveThisGame @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 09:25 AM) Sox will be back next year. Key moves in my mind... Pods gone, Uribe traded...Jimmy Rollins signs with the Sox. Fields gets an opportunity to start in left after an awesome spring training. For some reason the untouchable Brandon McCarthy I strongly believe will be traded away...The devil rays said they would have to have Brandon. How about a trade that would send Brian Anderson and Brandon McCarthy to the Rays for Crawford. 2007 Lineup Crawford Rollins Dye Thome Konerko Pierzynski Crede Iguchi Fields 2 out of 3 years??? They'll be back next year !! (and well rested I might add)...

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Sep 19, 2006 -> 12:30 PM) Worst idea ever.......................... I've cheered enough for this team. It's Fan appreciation day on Sunday, and what have they done for ME lately beside lose? Uhm - they won us a World Championship last year for the first time in our lifes and still will probably win 90 games although they most likely won't make the playoffs.. This year disappointing - yes? But YOU DON'T BOO A TEAM THAT DID WHAT THEY DID LAST YEAR - I'm sorry.. A little spoiled we have all become?

QUOTE(ChiSox_Sonix @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 03:49 PM) Why can we never call up anyone who can make any sort of positive immediate impact??? It seems the Twins have 2 or 3 a year who do that I know..I am tired of hearing how great our farm system is..but whenever someone comes up..they just can't handle pressure situations...

QUOTE(SoxnGiants @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 03:48 PM) 1 strike in 8 pitches. Was he drinking before the game? I don't care if he hits a GRAND SLAM..throw a STRIKE !!!!

QUOTE(tony72 @ Sep 10, 2006 -> 03:41 PM) Maybe it's our B players...Brian, Brandon, Boone.. no one whose name starts with a B allowed during a pennant chase.. Freddy was lauging at that...
