  1. QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 10:42 AM) Fixed. I was thinking baby steps but yeah that too.
  2. Here's to hoping Manny becomes the AL player of the month in September.
  3. QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 10:08 AM) Goddamn, I never said acquiring him was bad, Ive been happy with getting Jackson the whole time. I just dont think he was worth what we paid, and I think it will hurt us financially in the next few years, big time. If he helps propel us into the post season this year or next, something I think we have a better chance of doing with him over Hudson, then that financial impact isn't as bad.

    QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:22 AM) That was under instruction of Connor himself, though. Arnold was about to pop a dude in the brain and young John (as his commander) told him no killing. Yeah I realize all of that but I just wished Cameron didn't decide to pussify that aspect of the movie.
  5. QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:20 AM) The guy hit 100 with his last or next to last pitch. I do not think he was tiring. I don't think he should have been out there with well over 100 pitches in the 9th. He should have been pulled after the first batter reached base. I know our bullpen sucks but I don't want to mess up our best starter's arm.

    QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 08:10 AM) Feel free to see it that way, I just think T2 was a lot more schmaltzy and shiny, and a lot less dark and dramatic, than T3. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 09:06 AM) I feel T3 had very little drama, and horrible acting. I also feel that T2 had incredible acting, drama, and action, and the fact that it looked better and more realistic than a film made 14 years later is even more remarkable. I also loved how they tied John Connor's love of GnR together in T2 and Salvation. The only thing I disliked about T2 was that Arnold's character was too cheesy with the one liners. I also wanted him to be more bad ass by killing anyone who wanted to harm John Conner instead of shooting their knees or using tear gas. I liked that the T1000 scenes were very dark.
  7. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 11:50 AM) Or here's an idea, just be receptive to Mark f***ing Cuban wanting to make you fat cash. Yeah that whole scene seemed very unnatural and unlikely to occur in real life. My eyes were rolling the entire time.
  8. QUOTE (GoSox05 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 08:51 AM) No Kotsay! He will pinch hit for Manny in the 6th when they bring in a right handed reliever.
  9. QUOTE (chisox2334 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 08:33 AM) Sox lineup: Pierre LF Vizquel 2B Rios CF Konerko 1B M. Ramirez DH Teahen 3B Jones RF Castro C A. Ramirez SS Garcia P
  10. QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 07:10 AM) ''When I asked him how he felt, he didn't give the right answers,'' manager Ozzie Guillen said of his decision to give Ramirez a day to get acclimated. Yep, he's fired up and can't wait to jump into a pennant race. And you personally know what those answers were? From what was reported he was saying things like "I'll do anything they ask me to do".

    QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 1, 2010 -> 12:34 AM) 1) Dolphins are seen as "cleaner" animals because of their water habit, and the friendliest/most intelligent because of their performances at places like SEA WORLD 2) The Miami Dolphins, there's no professional or collegiate team with the moniker "PIGS" I am sure, anywhere in the world 3) Dolphins are beautiful to watch in their natural habit, and among the fastest and most streamlined/aerodynamic animals 4) There are no world religions that consider eating dolphin to be unclean or unkosher...kind of a reverse argument on its face, but it supports the overall point, since nobody around the world really loves to eat dolphin in the first place unless there's no choice 5) People have been conditioned to eating pig meat for centuries I'm sure you're kidding with at least one of those but those are all completely arbitrary reasons.
  12. QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 10:32 PM) Great post
  13. QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 10:34 PM) Thank you!! If you want a good 1B that can't hit, you can get Kotchman for 1/10th of the contract Konerko will get. Great post.
  14. Hopefully Freddy can throw a CG tomorrow.
  15. QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 08:29 PM) AJ YOU POLAK! Hey I resemble that remark.
  16. QUOTE (rafacosta @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 07:10 PM) this game will go all the way 0-0 and manny will win it for us with a pinch hit solo hr in the 8th inning. So that must mean Edwin throws a CG because there's no way our pen pitches shutout baseball.
  17. Kotsay with another screaming liner but another terrific defensive play to rob him.
  18. QUOTE (beckham15 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 07:07 PM) no manny's gotta go to bed otherwise we'll be seeing kotsay out there again.... Hopefully Ozzie tucks him in and tells him a good bed time story. Maybe he can borrow one of Hawk's Yaz stories.
  19. Is it possible for Edwin to get s***tier run support from our offense? The guy has to give up a run or less each time out to have a chance at a win.
  20. QUOTE (WinorDie88 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 07:05 PM) Quentin caught it! What a catch by Carlos Quentin! Mercy!!! It's like going to watch your nephew in little league....hoping and praying that he'll catch a ball hit to him. After that last catch maybe Ozzie will take him for ice cream after the game.
  21. Every ball hit to him is an adventure.
  22. QUOTE (daggins @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 07:02 PM) 6 pitches. I'll never understand how this team is so flummoxed by decent-to-bad pitching. We do have a guy on our bench who mashes crappy pitching.
  23. QUOTE (WinorDie88 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 06:59 PM) How did EJax come to our club with an ERA over 5.00 in the NL and pitch like this? What did Don Cooper do to him tell him to throw strikes? HE told Edwin "Throw strikes" and that was it.
