QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 03:21 PM) let me try asking this another way. The Cubs went 83-78 this year. The White Sox went 78-83. Where would the White Sox's record have been in your opinion in the NL Central? Would that have been worth 5 more games? We don't know the answer to that. Just because there are some bad teams in the NL Central doesn't mean we would have played better. Look at how we played against the Indians and Royals.

QUOTE (elgonzo4sox @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 03:19 PM) Since when does losing more games mean you are better than your opponent? Aha. Back to the reason why the Cubs outrank the Sox.

QUOTE (elgonzo4sox @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) The AL Central is the worst division in the AL, as proven by the head-to-head records of AL Central teams versus the AL East (76-91) and AL West (78-96). The 2009 head-to-head record of the AL Central versus the NL Central was 43-38. Now, which is the worst division in major league baseball? The AL Central

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 02:42 PM) Except the Royals were in the same league as us. We played in the worst division in baseball and came up with a worse record than the Cubs. I fail to see how we were obviously better. I could only imagine our record if we faced the Cards 18 times.

Then I guess the Royals should be ranked above us.

QUOTE (elgonzo4sox @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 01:54 PM) Phil Rogers has the Cubs ranked higher than the Sox in his power rankings. They have a better record. Hard to argue.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 02:20 PM) Hooray, I have made amends! I hope everyone else accepted your apology.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 02:19 PM) Is that a pr0n? I wish.

Good for you Steve. I was just about to submit a formal complaint.

Did we have to come to this?

Laurel Canyon was decent.

Where did that come from?

I think we lost it when a group from the IOC did an unannounced visit to Chicago and took the Blue Line to the Division stop. They immediately threw up when they stepped off the train and got a look at their surroundings. EDIT: And it took them 90 minutes to get to that stop from O'Hare because of slow zones and shuttle buses.

QUOTE (son of a rude @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 12:48 PM) He is a great center fielder. What makes you think he will end up in RF? Is it that unrealistic that he will play in CF throughout his contract with us? Maybe because Ozzie would start Pods in CF over him way too often?

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 12:28 PM) I'm here domestic abuse reports too. Might explain the scratches on his face. No. That was just me gently pawing at his face trying to entice him to come to the Sox.

Not sure if that's cool or sad.

You'd have to pay out of pocket though.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 11:00 AM) He has a good chance Not really.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 10:54 AM) Pretty soon the leaves will be changing here. You can't get that kind of beauty down there. Quite not the same as North East autumn foliage here. It's like getting sushi from Dominick's.

QUOTE (Tex @ Oct 5, 2009 -> 10:15 AM) How can it be 100 degrees in October?? I think it's because you're in hell.

Thanks for giving me cause to smile on a Monday morning.

Just got back from the David Cross show at the Congress. Hilarious.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Oct 3, 2009 -> 08:09 PM) Anyone think Garcia looks slimmer ? Yeah. No more PEDs.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Oct 3, 2009 -> 07:51 PM) what a total f***ing joke lillibridge is What would we have lost by just releasing him in mid-September? The guy is completely worthless.
