QUOTE(rudylaw @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 10:01 PM) I don't think that is needed. I think you are a good poster. And you make a lot of good points. I just don't think we need to ridicule Sox fans these days. We are going to be getting enough of it. I go in peace It's cool. What I mean is: don't listen to these f***ing jokers who say the Sox are choking. They are not choking. You do not choke with an 11-8 record in september. Say it with me: before tonight, it was not the Sox' fault that the Tribe went 32-11 in their previous 43 games. No matter what those idiot pundits would have you believe We still have the best record in the AL. f*** the A's, they're not getting in. f*** the Yankees and the Red Sox who have to scrap at each other the last weekend of the season just to see who wins their pathetic division. Even if the Tribe sweep (god forbid) the Yanks have to keep winning just to maintain the stride. Think that piss poor rotation will do that? Hell no they won't! In short, was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor?

QUOTE(wsox08 @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 10:00 PM) here's what i think to the sox not making tte playoffs..... :finger :finger :finger :finger :finger :finger .. they will make it damnit that's the spirit

It's really not hard to choose a side, guys. Don't toe the line. This team makes the playoffs. Not that making the playoffs even matters, because they won't win a series...but for those of you who think that making the playoffs is something important and tangible and worthwhile, I'm here to tell you they are in. 95 wins will get us in, and I see them winning at least that many games.

If they don't make the playoffs I will allow the mods to delete my account deal?

please sign in on this thread so I can add you to my signature of ridicule when they do.

okay this is horses***

christ Konerko why not just shake the pitcher's hand and say "I surrender"

one must walk before they run -Confucious (Sox fan)

what's up with Captain Slowroll on the strike calls come on, blue, this ain't your show

I heard him last night say he didn't think the Indians had to worry about the WC because they would win the central, and today a buddy of mine said that he further said that the White Sox wouldn't even make the playoffs. Bearing in mind that if the White Sox go just 5-9, the Yanks would have to go 11-2 to overtake. No way this happens, even if we lose the division to a miraculous Tribe surge. What kind of crack is that jackass smoking? Why does he hate the White Sox so much that he sees the world with such s***-colored glasses? Normally I don't care what the national media says, but this f***ing idiot has basically rooted against this team all year and wants desperately to dance on their graves gleefully if they do the unthinkable. I find his lack of basic rationality to be appalling. It's one thing to paint a gloomy scenario as being likely, it's quite another to frame an almost impossible one as definitive.

I've only been to three games this year, but I don't really care if the team or other sox fans think I'm a bad fan or whatever...I just rehearse with three different bands four nights a week and don't really have a schedule to accommodate going to see the White Sox very often

YES!

god he is really hanging that slider out there

just plunk sweeney.

I have never yelled at the tv so hard while simultaneously laughing

HE GAWN

we're still in good shape here guys, don't panic

is the sound f***ed for everyone else? I'm picking up a lot of interference from Hawk and DJ's mics on the comcast feed...

QUOTE(Reddy @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 01:41 PM) ahh the batting average. you wanna talk overrated theres a stat for you. fine, his average is down but guess what? his OBP is up and his slugging the last 2 years is also much higher. therefore he's got a higher OPS, a more indicative stat than BA. plus he's on pace to score more runs this year than ever in his career. to move him now would be a mistake, even if his batting average has dropped. Oh no don't get me wrong, I completely agree. I think he is worth more now than when he had a higher average. That's why I said re-sign him. I just think his average won't ever be that high, and if we're looking at downside, his variance and hot-and-cold nature, plus his possible BA floor being limitless are definitely detriments.

QUOTE(Felix @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 01:32 PM) I wouldnt be too sure about that. Since the All Star break, he has hit .328 with a .402 OBP, .610 SLG%, and 1.012 OPS. this is just indicative of how wide his variance is getting. I'd be very surprised to see him hit .300 for a season at this point, now that we've seen quite a few years
