haha, i was right QUOTE(fathom @ May 23, 2007 -> 07:53 PM) We're having better at-bats so far tonight than we did against him in April. Hopefully we can score some runs against him, but I don't like Garland's chances of keeping the A's to below 3 runs. LOL, Hawk is pimping Morrisseys column and DJ is just ignoring it and talking about something else

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 23, 2007 -> 08:09 PM) You going to a game sometime soon? I believe you owe me a beer. Actually I am soon, me and some work buddies are gonna catch a train after work in the coming weeks. And I will definitely ante up on that beer

Ok, its getting wierd how many line drive double plays the Sox have had lately

over/under on hawk calling Scutaro a piran-ya again tonite? 3?

Gooch going back on a ball scares me.

As long as Judy Garland is non-existent, I think the Sox have a good chance of pulling this one out. they need to keep it close, and Garland is pitching well

KC has some fight in them, they are taking it to the tribe 4-3

I think the answer to the trivia question is robin ventura and julio franco

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ May 23, 2007 -> 03:25 PM) You mean he gained the annoying accent through the years? I thought you became more professional and smooth through practice. No? It worked the opposite way with North

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ May 23, 2007 -> 03:05 PM) For some reason I always find myself listening to North. I think what I enjoy is listening to his cast of bozo's around him kissing his butt the whole time. I know Annie disagrees with him at times, but some of her stances are so ridiculous that I think she is told to actually disagree with him. But the butt-kissing I like is when Fred (that his name?) makes a joke, then North follows up with the exact same joke, but more or less taking the credit for the joke, and everybody laughs. It's sooo weird, but so great. The guy is a complete moron, and it's great to hear everybody just humor him. As for his prediction that the Sox will win it all, this is the same goof that with one win against Detroit, he started saying the Bulls were going to sweep the rest of the way, and he was being serious. How, by the way, did he get the job? He had no history in radio, right? He was some hotdog seller, right? Was he friends with all the right people or something? Was his hotdog cart better than his show? The way he explains it, the guy who started the Score was at his hot dog stand mentioning the possibility of starting a sports radio channel, and North wouldnt leave him alone until he gave him a chance. North made his own tape and got hired. When North was inducted into some hall of fame recently they played the tape, it was hilariously bad. And he didnt sound the same AT ALL.

QUOTE(pale_hose @ May 23, 2007 -> 08:21 AM) This morning I was listening to Mike North. A caller called in and said that he wish North would give Ozzie a show where North just yells at him b/c of how good the Sox have been playing lately. Then North goes on and talks about how the Sox clubhouse is a bunch of bad asses, and they might fight in the lockerroom, but will go out, band together and win ball games. He then compared them to the old A's teams and said that the Chicago White Sox come back and win the 2007 World Series. Does Mike North actually think this or is he just kissing Ozzie's ass? I heard Mike's rants too. He normally just yells a bunch of nonsense when people call him up with rants, and this is no different. I dont think it could be farther from the truth what he said about this years Sox, I dont think they are like the 70's Oakland A's who hated each other but played well together and won the World Series. The media is looking for quotes in the clubhouse and now AJ Pierzynski and Buehrle hate each other according to recent quotes. Its all blown out of proportion garbage. He may feel that they are gonna win the World Series, but I dont think he has a good idea of what is happening inside the clubhouse.

After Danks perfomance last night, is it 25 quality starts in a row out of this staff? Thats downright filthy right there. If this team can hit on all cylinders after the allstar break, it could be a fearsome sight for opposing teams.

Daily News reporting that Giambi flunked a test for amphetimenes within the last year. If this is true, then he is one hell of a person to be saying that everyone needs to apologize for what they did, considering he was still doing performance enhancing drugs.

QUOTE(YASNY @ May 23, 2007 -> 03:47 AM) Rick Morrissey LOL, Morrissey always has at least one column flipping the bird to Mariotti per year.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 22, 2007 -> 01:47 PM) Take marketing 101 and get back to me. LOL!

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 22, 2007 -> 01:16 PM) Question: What would be more valuable on the back page of the Sun Times: Jay Marriotti Palehose 7 multiple pictures of your beer sipping avatar beauty will suffice.

QUOTE(iamshack @ May 22, 2007 -> 11:51 AM) That may be an important consideration, but it isn't the only consideration. It may be good for business in the short term, but in the long term, it may become very bad for business. The Sun-Times has basically lucked into being the paper of many White Sox fans, due to the Cubs' affiliation with the Tribune, even though the Sun-Times is the City paper and the Tribune is the suburban paper. Mariotti is seriously threatening alienating the Sun-Times from a lot of White Sox fans- White Sox fans that are also Bulls fans and Bears fans. One would think that would weigh on their mind more so than one man's column. You are acting like this is new and unheard of. Reinsdorf and his teams have been Mariottis punching bag since he hit Chicago in the early 90's. His schtick wont change, he has been doing this for a long long time

QUOTE(iamshack @ May 22, 2007 -> 09:15 AM) Hah! I actually already have a new Danks jersey- the Halfway to St. Patricks Day white and green jersey. It is the apple of everyone's eye every time I go to a game... I still will bet you anything that Mariotti will be employed by the Sun times by the end of the year. His schtick hasnt changed, there is no reason for them to fire him

QUOTE(iamshack @ May 22, 2007 -> 08:58 AM) I find it humorous how in this morning's column, he accuses Ozzie of being a hypocrite. This is the guy that never answers his critics and has eternal amnesia about his past columns (unless they turn out to actually be correct, a rare occurrence indeed). Then he has a sub-headline in the column asking "Where is the Integrity." Hah. This man asking where the integrity went. Mark my words. He will be fired. This season. No way in hell. I will bet you a new Danks jersey right now that Mariotti is not fired this year

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 22, 2007 -> 08:53 AM) He does, or how would he know what is being said about him/the Sox. unfortunately he is playing right into Mariotti's little game. You could see todays column from a mile away, Mariotti loves exposure that Hawk gives him.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ May 22, 2007 -> 07:32 AM) There is a game for the Wii called Wii Play, it comes with a free controller. The game itself is 10 or so games, all of them of mediocre game fun, aside from the tank battle and the cow race. Those two games are great fun. They are all basically your old style games. Simple, but somewhat enjoyable, especially with little kids. For my birthday my wife and kids got me Ultimate Alliance! That game is soooo cool. The only problem I found is that the commercials hype up being any character you want to be, but that is far from the case. You are stuck as Captain America, Spider-Man, Thor, and Wolverine until you clear it to the first S.H.I.E.L.D. access point, and even then only certain characters are available. I'm fine with it to a certain degree, as Iron Man is an unlocked character, but I want my team to also include Daredevil. Though I am sure I am missing certain "finer aspects" of the game. This is the first modern gaming experience I have had since Intellivision after-all. Is Ultimate Alliance available for Wii? Or is it for another platform? Another game I really want to play is the BASS fishing game. The other day I went to Blockbuster with my wife and stood in front of all of the Wii rentals, and my wife had to pull me away. i think thats where she realized how much I need this platform.

Ha, Bill Melton just called Terrero "Theriot"

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ May 21, 2007 -> 10:19 PM) He was 94 on the Urinal gun. He may be a little looser today They showed one pitch at 99. I dont know how reliable it is, but I saw it hit 99

Nice catch by Terrero, he screws that up and 2 runs score with the 3rd in scoring position, probably 3rd base, possibly scoring

QUOTE(chisoxfan79 @ May 21, 2007 -> 10:17 PM) Well I think it is safe to say we have no bullpen for tomorrow with Mac and Jenks throwing too many pitches Masset unavailable till Friday and Sisco, Aardsma and Logan ineffective right now We should probably just forfeit the game
