Cool. I'm in the paper. I'm the first guy mentioned. http://www.pioneerlocal.com/booster2/news/...2307-s1.article

If I were in town I'd play. Sorry guys.

QUOTE(iamshack @ May 22, 2007 -> 01:42 PM) And what would happen if someone at the Sun-Times checked out this site and saw that there was a 10 page thread about Mariotti every other week? Take marketing 101 and get back to me.

QUOTE(iamshack @ May 22, 2007 -> 01:28 PM) This belief that somehow not speaking of him on this board will somehow cause him to go away is pure nonsense. I don't buy the paper to read Jay Mariotti. I doubt many do. People buy the paper to read the news. Mariotti happens to be on the inside of the first page of the sports section. I read it, like I read the other columnists. He's not going to go away by not discussing him on Soxtalk. No but you're glorifying him by ranting about him for several pages. There might be a member of this site that doesn't regularly read his columns that decides to pick up the next Sun Times to see what the fuss is about. EDIT: By the way someone at the Sun Times can check out this site and see that there is a 10 page thread about Mariotti every other week. Whether the thread is bashing him or not isn't the point.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 22, 2007 -> 01:21 PM) Is McNabb better than both Qb's on our team? They aren't even in the same league as McNabb. Well technically they're all in the same conference but not in the same league.

QUOTE(iamshack @ May 22, 2007 -> 01:02 PM) I applaud Hawk for what he's doing. You've got to counter Mariotti's BS. If you don't, people start believing it. Someone has to take a stand for the organization. What Hawk is doing, and frankly what you are doing by prolonging a thread like this, is getting more people to check out what that douche is actually writing about. Bad publicity is better than none.

QUOTE(Steff @ May 22, 2007 -> 11:14 AM) ^^. Find a new gal better suited to your lifestyle. Indeed. Why waste your time.

QUOTE(RME JICO @ May 22, 2007 -> 10:47 AM) Just FYI. http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/07142/787954-63.stm I really hope KW doesn't think about picking him up.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ May 22, 2007 -> 09:15 AM) It was nice to see the Sox kick the s*** out of a very good pitcher in Joe Blanton, and take advantage of some opportunities on offense. I think you are slowly seeing the confidence come back to our hitters. I would have to agree. The upcoming schedule is very favorable. I can see us gaining some ground in the next few weeks as Detroit and Cleveland are bound to cool off at some point.

QUOTE(Capn12 @ May 21, 2007 -> 11:49 PM) MMac better get his s*** together. We already have a collection of shaky guys out in the pen, with supposedly a few dependables(MMac, Thornton, FlapjackBobby). If MMac decides to suck for a little while, we're gonna be hurting for an alternate setup man. Other than Bobby I have no faith in anyone coming out of the bullpen. It feels like a coin flip whether a guy will be effective or not when they take the hill.

Woohoo!! We are no longer 30th in batting average. 1 point higher than the Nationals.

Cintron does not resemble a major league hitter.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ May 21, 2007 -> 12:20 PM) Haha. I was just wondering if there's a rhyme or reason to your post. Carry on. I rarely have any rhyme or reason.

QUOTE(WHITESOXRANDY @ May 21, 2007 -> 11:00 AM) Rogers is an idiot. Yes, the Vazquez trade will hurt because Vazquez will never be the pitcher that so many thought he would be. And, the only thing that really hurt was giving up Young. But, the rest of the guys are meaningless. I'll bet the Sox sign Rowand in the offseason. The Thome deal was a good one. The guy leads the major leagues in OBP ! He's still pretty healthy and the Sox will start to roll again now that he's back. We'll see about that. We know about 2005 and he missed games last year and already this year. He's getting old but I sure hope he can stay healthy for the duration of at least this season.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ May 21, 2007 -> 10:32 AM) Nothing wrong with being negative or critical but is there any point whatsoever in making that comment here and now? It's a message board. Get over it. Put me on your ignore list.

It makes me sad to think that if we win 10 straight we probably won't be in 1st place.

QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ May 21, 2007 -> 10:17 AM) This post is priceless. Absolutely priceless. LMAO

When will Cleveland and Detroit slow down? I am so sick of them.

LOL. Here's a Hawk quote from Teddy Greenstein's column in today's trib: Reminds me of G&T's sig.

Ozuna??

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 20, 2007 -> 02:19 PM) Detroit? Don't you remember slow Molina hit it? I figured you would be confused and think the other Molina hit it, thus Anaheim was the opponent. That was one of the few games last year that I did not either watch or attend.

Dammit. I lose. For some reason I thought it was Detroit.

Hey guys, who was the opponent last season when Iguchi did that crazy dive/throw to first. Have a bet going on here with some friends.
