Milkman delivers

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 10:00 AM) Finally saw Munich last night, boy was that overrated. The first 45 minutes or hour were great, but then it just sort of stalled and dragged on. Pay for information, set up hit, boom, repeat. Boring. Very anticlimactic too. I also saw PotC on Friday. I'd agree with the review above: good, enjoyable movie that wasn't quite as good as the first. The ending was obviously just an intermission in the story with basically nothing resolved (think LotR). I disagree. The end showed that the cycle of violence led all involved to nothing good. They were all either dead or fearing that they soon would be dead. No more sense of patriotism for Bana, just a final realization that he had done nothing good by basically being a terrorist himself. And then they showed the WTC at the end to show how the violence had spread far enough to affect us.

I figured since we have one of our own representing us this year, we ought to have a thread in PHT to discuss it. I really think Dye is gonna take this thing home.

Has anyone ever seen someone get headbutted in the chest before? I've never seen anything but a headbutt to the head. Even if it wasn't a flop, how the hell do you react when someone headbutts you in the chest? I would be stunned and confused if I wasn't writhing in pain on the ground.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jul 9, 2006 -> 10:43 PM) Well there is a play you don't see every day: Roy Oswalt doubles in the 11th inning, yet missed the base according to the ump(very hard to tell if he hit it on the replay) and when the Cardinals appealed he was called out. The Astros' first base coach gave it away. I'm almost positive he's the only reason the ump assumed he didn't touch the base.

QUOTE(redandwhite @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 09:54 AM) Yes, a player is a tool for opting not to play in an exhibition game when he's been playing on a sore knee all season. Despite being a Red Sox fan, you should be able to admit that Manny is a tool because Manny is a tool.

I'd definitely like to have Gordon. He'd completely solidify our bullpen, making in one of the best around. With a trade like this, we might not even have to upgrade the rotation (which probably wouldn't happen anyway) because our bullpen would be so lights out. But if we're sending them Fields, I'd want something else in return, possibly some salary relief. And I wonder if Flash would take a demotion to set-up man again?

I want to get excited when I read about rumors like this, but after last year, I just can't do it. If it happens, it happens. I'll trust KW to do the right thing for the team.

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 08:21 AM) Dye deserves the Start. He is leading all MLB outfielders in almost every major offensive catagory. That also gives Ozzie three RFs for the game. Ichiro can play CF easily, do who goes to LF? Probably Dye because Vlad was voted in. So to avoid any kind of minor controversy, it might end up being that way. But if it were my choice, I'd put Dye in RF.

QUOTE(greg775 @ Jul 10, 2006 -> 12:38 AM) Relax our rotation is awesome. Just because you keep saying that, doesn't make it true. They're proving day in and day out that they are not awesome.

This is f***ing huge. That is all.

thank god

Homerun cuts abound

THIS s*** IS MIRACULOUS WE HAVE TO WIN THIS WE HAVE TO WIN THIS WIN IT THIS INNING FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, PLEASE WIN THIS THING

Does anyone expect Cliff to throw a scoreless inning? Honestly? It would be a miracle. Let's hope for a miracle.

Ridiculous. Seanez is awful, I can't believe we didn't score off of him.

Gload's gotta stop being useless at one point or another.

McCarthy with a f***ing great performance today. Thank you, bullpen. This game has got me shaking. Oh man, we have to end it at some point, right? Right?

And here comes Ortiz again. Damn it.

I can't believe how bad this game is. If we lose it, it may be the worst game I've ever sat through. This is heads and shoulders above any other game I've said was the worst ever, if we lose.

oh my sweet lord jesus f***ing christ mother of god piece of s*** prick bastard

This is horses***. Was that Ozzie's call again, or was it on Iguchi? Ozzie has never had a worse game than this.

Well, 2-2 now. We can't be much worse at bunting if we tried.

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Jul 9, 2006 -> 06:44 PM) you start... I don't think that's acceptable. Pods walks, men on 1st and 2nd.

If we can't score off of Seanez, we might as well shoot ourselves in the face.

Alright, offense, listen up and listen good. Look out to the bullpen. You see who that is warming up? Do you realize that Cliff Politte is sure to make an appearance in this game if you do not score this inning?! It's your choice, my friends. Either you guys put a run across this inning, or we all will suffer through the horror that is Cliffy. It's your choice and yours alone. Do what's right.
