Twins A's Dodgers Death?

The greatest year in White Sox history in a long time, followed up by one of the worst. The team really should be ashamed of themselves.

I have a source that's saying Cena will be joining DX. Not sure exactly when, but it's a pretty believable source.

QUOTE(Bhay99 @ Sep 23, 2006 -> 06:09 PM) sorry i just dont consider the sox out of it until the magic number is 0, that's what being a fan is about, chill out. Ha, yeah. That's what being a fan is all about.

QUOTE(Bhay99 @ Sep 23, 2006 -> 06:02 PM) baltimore ties it at 4. Are you just hoping we lose the division and WC by a smaller deficit than we currently are? Because that's about the only reason we should give a rat's ass what Baltimore is doing.

The Orioles fans walking out will have the same effect that our fans not giving a standing ovation at the last home game will. It won't hit the pocketbooks, but it'll damn well get the point across that the fans are pissed.

Wow, Buehrle has really become a joke. I wouldn't hesitate to trade him this offseason.

This guy's entrance music

Don't worry. This team hasn't quit. That's what I'm told, at least. And we're starting to look stupid for having tied up Contreras long-term.

It was definitely the Iguchi grandslam against the Astros. That was extremely unbelievable.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 22, 2006 -> 08:33 AM) Apparently... since as was shown earlier, they were the exception to the rule. Other than the $200M Yankees, virtually no one did well the year after a WS championship. I don't think they had a $200 million payroll the years they repeated. It was probably closer to the meager $100 million payroll that the White Sox currently have.

Good, get the f*** out of here.

How about cheers to the 2005 Chicago White Sox, the team which this year's team lived off of?

QUOTE(whitesox91403 @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 01:21 PM) The best heel of all time had to be Ted DiBiase. He had an impressive 10 year run where his "money" ended the 4 year title run of the then unstoppable Hogan machine. He was what everyone hated, a guy who could buy whatever he wanted and did so. It was the perfect gimmick. Then, when he teamed with IRS they smashed poor old Brutus Beefcake's surgically repaired face which prompted the return of Hogan. After he hurt his neck, then he started the Million Dollar Corporation where he again bought stars, even getting some of them to turn like Tatanka and of course, Sapphire who turned on Dusty Rhodes at the time. I'm sure there are a lot of things I'm leaving out but, DiBiase would be my vote for greatest heel of all time. I have to agree. DiBiase was the heel that all other heels should strive to be. Maybe one day Orton will reach that level. QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 06:46 AM) The Boogeyman won't be coming to get anybody on SmackDown! He's been released from the E because he wasn't making checkups with doctors and the E felt he wasn't giving his all to rehab the injuries. What a stupid ass gimmick, and truly a terrible wrestler. My friends and I made a bet that he wouldn't even be able to put in a 5-minute match at WM, and the under won easily. QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 08:12 AM) And I thought he would have been good as the 3rd member of DX. They better scrub DX soon, or add a couple new members. That s***'s just boring.

I'm going to narrow this down and say: Pitching and managing.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Sep 21, 2006 -> 12:48 AM) 29-38 That's our record since July 7th. I can't even find anymore words to properly describe how bad this team is. They're really earning that $100 million payroll. It's just unfortunate that we have so many injuries while every other team is so healthy.

/snarky comment

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 11:41 AM) You have to be kidding me... Wow. Obviously, the shoe must fit PERFECTLY. Say what you want, but I only see one side here name calling.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 11:04 AM) The more things progress, the more I'm not so sure McCarthy will be on this team next season. I don't even care anymore. They can trade any one of them they'd like to, because none of them have earned being untouchable. I know we all love McCarthy, but you're not making yourself a fixture on the team when you're throwing up a 4.95 ERA. I still think he'll eventually be better than a couple of our current starters, but they can trade him if they want to because he hasn't pulled his weight (which shouldn't be too hard considering he weighs 110 pounds).

QUOTE(GaelicSoxFan @ Sep 19, 2006 -> 11:58 PM) That was when they had The Rock, Stone Cold, Foley and Triple H doing most of the heavy lifting. Three are retired and HHH is most likely at the end of his rope. Also, from what I understand, Randy Orton's persona isn't all an act. He is talented, but unless he can control his ego, I'd bet he'll be shown the door when his contract is up. The way I see it, the WWE will have to make a decision soon. Right now, both RAW and SmackDown are hurting for talent. Cena probably won't be wrestling much longer, Edge, Mysterio and Kane aren't exactly spring chickens, and the younger guys like Carlito, Nitro, Chris Masters and Shelton Benjamin are at least another year away from being permanent fixtures in main event matches. Or are just plain garbage.

Well, one of Contreras/Buehrle/Garcia/Garland/Vazquez/McCarthy has to go. Which one is up to KW, and I'll trust him to make the right choice. I wonder what he'll even try to get in return for any of them. And hey, maybe this win was that magical "fuse" we needed to light. Let's just hope it's not another dud, and that Oz E. Coyote doesn't try to play around with it too much and have it blow up in his face.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 09:43 AM) Best post of the season. Bar none. Real nice that he got away with calling everyone else sissies, though.

QUOTE(vandy125 @ Sep 20, 2006 -> 10:27 AM) Seeing what he has done at the end of this year makes me want to keep him. He lost his velocity and learned how to pitch. I keep thinking of what he will be able to do with his velocity back and knowing how to pitch, and I like it. To me, it's all dependent on him regaining his velocity. If he really can get it back, I hate to say it, but I'd keep him around with his control and new splitter.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Sep 19, 2006 -> 04:53 PM) (in my best Ditka voice) Hey gang, in life, you take the good with the bad. Learn to handle some adversity without getting emotional or throwing in the towel. Funny that you mentioned an overrated coach for a team that won one championship when they should've had a few more.

QUOTE(kapkomet @ Sep 18, 2006 -> 10:36 AM) You're being too harsh... Cora doesn't make a difference in a game save about three times this season. That's not true. He has repeatedly cost the Sox runs. I may overreact to things, but I am dead serious about this one. Joey Cora should be fired. He, in no way, has earned his job.
