The City Councilman/Radio host who led the "movement" against that mural was casually fired from the radio show in the middle of the night last night.

The stat that concerns me more is that the Hawks haven't won a game in Philadelphia since 1996.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 11:21 PM) George W. Bush has something to do with this negativity. Well, the corps did lots of crappy crap on his watch as well, does that count?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 5, 2010 -> 12:14 AM) The drivers are the kinds of "Americans" I wouldn't mind getting rid of in a one-for-one exchange for some illegals. You only say such things because you're one of them minorities too.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 11:09 PM) Wouldn't shock me if both Chicago managers get fired. Really? Even Pinella?

I don't even know if the game is over yet and I don't care, here's the Soxnet game wrapup.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:59 PM) Combined record of our "1-4" starters? That's the team record in games after a win. The Sox are 4-19 now in the game the next day after a win.

4-19 this year on the game after the win.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:47 PM) He's probably waiting until the end of next weekend and the Cubs series. AJ's 10/5 rights kick in on the Sunday of the Cubs series.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:47 PM) Peavy's on his way to becoming the AL version of Barry Zito it seems. At least that means in a couple years he'll turn it around.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:46 PM) who needs a farm team when you have kenny williams pulling out his wish list out from the early 00's all star games every year We had a crappier farm system in 2007 than we do right now, and we turned that around into a division title within 1 year. It has been done before.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:42 PM) This is the biggest thing that pisses me off....noone in the front office has any balls to do anything about it. The problem is the Whitesox loyalty can be one of the things that kills them as well. A change has to be made and frankly i dont really care what it is as long as they show they aren't just going to sit there and take it in the you know what for the rest of the season I can't fathom how they would hold onto AJ now. KW could without being fully insane have said "well, we've got a lot of home games coming up, let's see how they go before pulling the trigger, we have that week or so". We've lost 3 of the first 4.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:42 PM) I'm sure Balta will disagree with me, but I truly feel like the Astros are the only franchise in worse shape than the Sox right now. Not many teams can have one of the worst records while having an absolutely atrocious farm system with remaining bad contracts. If this is the Beckham, Quentin, Peavy, and Buehrle that we have from now on...disagreement is impossible.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:38 PM) These could be the least exciting cub sox series ever. Ronny Paulion was 0-7 but he hada 4.03 ERA. Some team does have to win the games.

I freaking love the Tea Party. This is their candidate in CT. Blumenthal's Vietnam stories gave the Republican a shot. That didn't take long.

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:29 PM) i'll take the OR....gotta be better than the other two options So...you'd use Thornton in a game where you're down 4-1 and there's 2 men already on, and it's the 7th inning?

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:26 PM) Blame him for leaving himself in the game? No. You pull pitchers after 0 outs, 0 runs, and 2 hits? Who did you want? Linebrink or Williams?

F***. Hell, which thread am I in?

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:23 PM) Glad we're leaving Santos in to flounder. Because you know what is a good idea? Pulling him after getting in no outs and bringing in Randy Williams.

And David Aardsma Sergio Santos gives up the leadoff hit.

And why is Beckham swinging at the first pitch too?

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Jun 4, 2010 -> 10:10 PM) Now you're just arguing for the sake of arguing. It's like Dick Allen defending Walker. Sometimes a change just has to be made. At this point...I'd rather start changing players.
