NICE

come on jenks

dammit

I mean

He G....

also, just out of curiosity, what was attendance like tonight?

maybe we can get 100 pages out of this thread

let's play 2

hey guys what'd I miss lol

I have a link another site that copied and pasted the article, if anyone wants it.

Come on, Schoeneweis was a move that sent shockwaves through the league.

If Timo's spot in the order comes up he better be nowhere f***ing near the f***ing plate

they don't call them dog days of august for nothing, guys

Is Crede on acid tonight?

This team needs to have it's ass chewed out after the game, and they need to get to the park for some extra grounders and bp at f***ing 9am.

Konerko - down 2, runner on, strikeout. Like I was sayin'

Somebody please drive Timo to a cornfield in Iowa and leave him there until Nov. 1

And yes, obviously he won't be as strong defensively. When has defense at first base ever been a priority?

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:51 PM) Name me one that has averaged 500 AB's the past 3 seasons, is available to the White Sox, will be as strong defensively as Kong, can replace 75% of his R's+RBI's, & will cost no more than 25/4. Jermaine Dye, for one. I'm only half-kidding.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:26 PM) You sound like one of those dumb Yankee fans who thinks that ARod's no good. "but he doesn't hit with RISP" By the way, RISP stats tend to fluctuate wildly from year to year. There simply isn't enough ABs to eliminate 'noise'. It doesn't really idicate a players true ability. -- Did Konerko suddenly lose his ability to be clutch? After all he hit .303 just last year w/ RISP. NO. It's all just random chance. -- The reality is, Konerko has a career average OPS of .833. His OPS w/ RISP this season is .864. -- But keep complaining. It looks good on you. :rolly That is just part of my argument. My entire argument: He's slow his average is dipping from year to year to year and will eventually suck by his mid 30s he's increasingly one-dimensional any above average first basemen is gonna replace 75% of his power numbers for 50% of his future salary or less.

August 04 was also terrible

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:08 PM) that statement is fine. I agree with it. But you act like Paul is no big deal. he has been a huge spark for a team desperate for a spark, and noone is noticing because they dont want to see it. Like I said, I like Konerko. I just think we can get about as much for much, much less. Like I said, his numbers with RISP are not good...

Can we please get back to talking about how Paul Konerko is not a $10 million dollar a year value

Very well, let me just f***ing edit my statement to reflect the fact that Soxtalk is a website that is big on semantics. How many times has Paul Konerko ever hit a walk-off home run or single? My point is that when the chips are down and we are down 2 in the ninth, 2 out, 2 on and Konerko is up, you can count on a pop-up.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 15, 2005 -> 12:00 PM) there is only one thing f***ing ridiculous that i see. Go find a mirror Greg, you might see it too. Your definition of "game-winning home run or hit" is not the same as 99% of other people in the world. Go ahead, ask around the office and get back to me.
