"More bunting"
Bunting accomplishes plenty when used properly. It is far from an easy out like Thunderbolt suggests, and although our team spectacularly fails at bunting, there are teams that can use it to their advantage and do so often(Angels)

"More bunting"
QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 08:00 AM) We're a home-run hitting team in a home-run loving ballpark. Are job should be to hit the crap out of the ball, get on-base, and play well in the field. We should not be giving away outs to advance runners, who can be driven in by actual productive hits. Honestly, i salivate whenever i see someone drop down a bunt against us. It's an easy out. Carlos Gomez/Carl Crawford/Ichiro Suzuki says hi

QUOTE (SoxFan101 @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 12:19 AM) Wow, I have no idea where your coming from... I think we can easily win both games as well as lose both, Pittsburgh has a very shaky secondary without palamalu and seattle really isnt all that good. WSF101 always picks to lose and is surprised when (insert team) wins.

Films Thread
QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 02:54 PM) I watched Citizen Kane for the first time last night. Granted I was tired, but the movie didn't do much for me. It's considered one of the greatest films of all time. Can someone go into some detail on why it is so good? In my Jr year film class we went over how revolutionary most of his filming style was in the movie. I dont recall the specifics, but he broke a lot of ground with the way he filmed movies and set up shots and even dubbed in audio. interestingly enough, the next movie that we went over in regards to breaking ground on filming style was Raising Arizona. There were like 6 different camera shots that were never tried before that movie

"More bunting"
Just wondering why teaching how to bunt better in spring training means that the overall slugging approach is going by the wayside. Everyone is really overanalyzing what Ozzie is saying here

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 01:10 PM) I thought he had a decent year but nothing outstanding. Didn't he pitch in game 3 with Garza in game 4? No, Edwin Jackson pitched a whopping 2 innings in the World Series http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/teams/pitchi...se&type=reg It went Kazmir-Shields-Garza-Sonnanstine I believe

So his pyro and back tat is Goldberg, his rope shaking is Warrior, didnt I.R.S. used to do the thumbs down? Im not going to be sad when big bad dave is gone, he has done nothing for me

Colon set free
QUOTE (GO CHI SOX! @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 03:14 PM) This opens the door for Big Frank to return and retire as a member of this team. Should help ticket sales as well. U would think Colon frees up 2 or 3 roster spots. This is pretty much word for word what I was thinking

He has pretty much been free. From the start

I wonder how much effect the constantly changing portable media has also affected this. They had to get rid of all of those videos, now DVDs, Hi-Def for a minute, now Blu-Ray. They are losing money trying to keep up

Field Turf at Soldier Field?
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 10:55 AM) Top quality field turf is better than what most of us have played on. Still field turf is superior than grass for football since the ball isnt on the ground. The rub is that it needs to be a heated surface at Soldier Field because that s*** freezes and becomes worse than grass in the snow. IIRC they installed field heaters when Soldier Field was renovated

Field Turf at Soldier Field?
QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 10:09 AM) I'm a grass man all the way. The condition of it might suck, so pay someone who knows what they're doing to maintain it. I hate the field turf in every stadium i've been to. I like the authentic feel of using actual ground versus the fake stuff. yeah authentic mud and painted dirt are great

2010 Schedule released
QUOTE (SouthsideDon48 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 01:16 AM) ...case in point to my previous post... out of the last 20 or so games left in the season, the Sox play Detroit 6 times. That's boring, despite the face that there's a division championship at stake. It wouldnt be boring if the Sox werent stinking the place up

It wasnt so much that he was right or wrong, it was how he was saying it. Gruden doesnt have near the experience in the booth Jaws has, cut the guy a little slack on his first primetime event
