Milkman delivers

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 07:04 PM) At best, he has a Juan Pierre type season.. QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 08:07 PM) So pretty much you just summed up what Pierre did at age 28... Thank you agreeing, at best he is Pierre. Ha, so you assumed people would think you meant that he would have a Juan Pierre type of season from when Juan Pierre was 28 and not the current Juan Pierre? Nice try there.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 08:04 PM) They are making a big deal out of the 10k the Sox get if they finish second. Why doesn't Ozzie just give each coach 10k? He can give it as a gift, and he's always popping off how rich he is. It's incredibly insulting to the fans.

Duncan just looked like the little leaguer nobody ever wanted in the game.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 02:56 PM) Anything that he can take forward with him towards a recovery in 2012 is huge. This guy isn't going to go anywhere, and you know he is going to get a sizable number of ABs next year to see if he has recovered. I know, but I just want his futility to be etched into the history books.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 07:12 PM) At best? Juan Pierre can't run or field any more and has no power. De Aza with a handful of doubles would massively upgrade on Pierre. Only q is if he can keep the average up. He hits .270 and he is a massive upgrade on Pierre. I was going to chime in with something similar to this, but it just seemed pointless.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 04:39 PM) i dont understand why everyone cant have their own opinoin. we think ozzie isnt the biggest problem others do. so what? everyone is entitled to their own opinion. but since its not what you guys think, we're idiots. But you agree that he's a problem?

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 03:11 PM) Two of the jokes that were cut from the Roast last night are amazingly tasteless (about Casey Anthony and Great White) Well, you have to quote them now. You can't tease like that. And I have no idea what the Great White one can be. I didn't know they were in the news recently at all.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 03:35 PM) I agree with this. It seemed like they were trying to make Drive look and sound like an 80's indie film. My favorite part of the movie was Albert Brooks. The opening scene was very good, and it had a few good moments sprinkled throughout the movie, but I'd never recommend it to anyone. It stinks?

QUOTE (Chet Kincaid @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 01:04 PM) I told you that he would turn into Babe Ruth the minute the White Sox were eliminated from the playoffs. Of course. I'm just surprised that the entire team hasn't gotten hot since they've been eliminated. I'm a little disappointed in Dunn, though. I wanted him to be only the second player in the history of the game to have more strikeouts than his average.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 20, 2011 -> 01:06 PM) This really bothers me. How the f*** is this even an option? Does the chairman and his lackeys even watch the Sox play? Ozzie is a buffoon. I truly believe that Reinsdorf is a smart man. He's surely not dumb enough to actually follow the logic of that quote. It seems more like a ploy to raise (or not diminish, at minimum) the value Ozzie can bring back in a trade to Florida. This quote, though: Well, it's laughable. I also enjoyed how he followed that sentence up by saying that he was given a good team, though. Perhaps the Ozzie fellators will take that to heart

This thread will go exactly the same way any Walker thread does.

This roast isn't the best, but it's got a few pretty big laughs in it. Nobody has really sucked, which is good. QUOTE (flavum @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 09:05 PM) Besides too much Walter Jr, that was a great episode. Especially the scenes that took place in Mexico. Next week should be interesting. I don't think Walt Jr. was overused. Why do you say that?

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 07:57 PM) It all has to deal with the insane number of pitches they throw growing up in the Japanese leagues, as well as the fact that a lot of them rely on deception. That was always what I thought.

I'm glad I never jumped on him, as I've always thought he was going to adjust at some point. I would have preferred it to come earlier, but I'll be happy as long as he keeps it up next year.

I'm kind of disappointed in the lack of talk about last night's Breaking Bad. It was so freaking good.

No Japanese pitcher ever lasts long, at least doing well. The only one that I can think of, and I'm pretty sure he's quite the stretch, is Hideo Nomo. Without looking up stats, I think he had one good year in each league and both of those years were his first in that league.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 05:03 PM) Ss2K5 lost that battle. Looks like it's you, Victory, greg, elrockin, Melissa, and Soil against the world. Good luck with that group.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 04:32 PM) See! My spirits are raised when I read this guy's post. They are just too damn funny to be upset with. Honestly though, maybe it's a combination of you the consistent b**** slaps you guys throw his way that accounts to the humor too. *Pops a bag of popcorn* Carry on! Glad to help pass your day!

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 02:55 PM) You're right he is ready to carry this team on his back... So, you changed it from "not ready" to not "ready to carry this team"? Backtracking, eh?

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 04:29 PM) So proving an Admin wrong is now trolling..

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 04:28 PM) Where else am I going to get my entertainment while rotting away in a cubicle at work? Good point. Solitaire, Sudoku, or Angry Birds usually do it for me.

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 04:18 PM) Why would I be? I think that quite foolish to think having a difference of viewpoints, and proving and admin wrong.. won't get you banned.. Are you trying to tell me something.. IM me it then plz. Haha, I'll give you this. You are f***ing awesome at trolling. I'm reading your posts while laughing and getting annoyed at the same time. I really don't think you're serious.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 04:14 PM) Never thought I'd see the day where me, J4L, balta, Jenksy, Milkman, Sqwert and SS2k all are on the same side arguing against others Holy s***, I didn't even think about that. This has to be the first time it's ever happened. Anywho, who is up for a mass "block" of this guy?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 03:08 PM) Team Ozzie has worn me down. I feel like I'm just post-padding now. It will be a great day when that fool is fired. It will be like when I had my very first 40. I've never been able to replicate that magical moment in my life. I'm just glad that the people who run this organization, as inept as they seemingly are, cannot be as daft as some of these guys. Ozzie will be gone, they'll cry, and we'll laugh.

QUOTE (VictoryMC98 @ Sep 19, 2011 -> 03:03 PM) So you don't have an answer... Shocking. I.Cannot.Wait.Until.You're.Banned.
