Season finishing very strong.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 6, 2009 -> 12:59 PM) Wasn't sure where to put this. I happened to click through to a CNN article (brief) about Rush Limbaugh going after Colin Powell (saying he endorsed Obama solely based on race, etc.). But that wasn't the interesting part. Read this article, then read the comments below. It absolutely amazes me the level of political discourse among the populus is this horrid - filled with hate, misinformation, apparently complete lack of knowledge of history or politics, pettiness and just plain stupidity - from both parties AND independents. I hope, really hope, these comments are not an accurate sampling of our voting populus. I stopped reading the user comments on cnn.com a long time ago. They embarrassed me to be associated with the human race.

Lot of dark clouds rolling in right now.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 6, 2009 -> 12:49 PM) Is he still on the team? He was last seen assisting Roger Bossard in pregame. He's the new fertilizer guy.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 6, 2009 -> 12:47 PM) Lwet's sign that there Pedro Martinez. Contreras can pitch long relief and Broadway can go down or Richard maybe The Count needs 45 minutes to warm up. I don't envision him being a bullpen guy.

Dang. Really nice guy. I waited on him several times back in the day.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 6, 2009 -> 10:37 AM) I do (I was ignoring this one at first and only read "KW should be embarrassed" for comic relief), but there's usually 4 or 5 of them at any given time. Then I suggest you avoid my "Lillibridge should be waterboarded" thread I'm just about to post.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 6, 2009 -> 10:32 AM) It would be nice if I didn't have to see threads after every game where, for example, Paul Konerko goes 0-4 with 2 K's and a GIDP and a poster starts up a thread calling for him to be taken out back and shot. Avoid those threads.

QUOTE (striker62704 @ May 6, 2009 -> 10:23 AM) I hope Contreras gets rocked tonight. I'm tired of this up and down crap. It's time to move on to something better. He pitching a little league game tonight?

So would it make soxtalk a more enjoyable site if it was a complete circle jerk for all things White Sox? Personally I think the level of discourse is enhanced by having a diverse range of opinions.

QUOTE (shipps @ May 6, 2009 -> 07:42 AM) I would ban twizzlers. Damn you to hell!

The caulfield bashing obsession is becoming comical.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ May 5, 2009 -> 12:38 PM) ESPN insider reporting that the Sox have talked to Pedro... Too bad it's not 2002.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 5, 2009 -> 12:14 PM) I think the Sox win 7 -4. Not sure why, I just do. Well I'm putting $5K on them based on your guess. Thanks!

QUOTE (kapkomet @ May 5, 2009 -> 12:25 PM) No, but you all want to talk about how much better the Democrat party is all the time, and in reality, it's no different. That was his point. You smear and smear and smear the Republicans but when the Democrats do it, it's somehow different in a good way to you all.

Exactly

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 5, 2009 -> 11:23 AM) If true, this is a fascinating anecdote looking at how the 2 parties are working right now. Yeah well he's a Muslim so who cares.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 5, 2009 -> 10:13 AM) Betemit is 3 for 5 lifetime vs. Davies with 2 homers. I suppose like the last time the Sox faced him, it means Wilson will be regulated to pinch hitting duties after Davies has been lifted. No doubt.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 5, 2009 -> 10:19 AM) figures. Im done Thanks for playing. You'll receive a lovely 5 piece Traveler's Choice luggage set as a parting gift.

QUOTE (kyyle23 @ May 5, 2009 -> 10:06 AM) I was thinking more along the lines of Conan the Destroyer(or was it Red Sonja?), where the monster is in the last mirror and you have to destroy all the mirrors...... whoa did I get off track there They ripped off that scene from the Bruce Lee flick.

Or install a maze of mirrors in your bathroom...similar to the one used in Enter the Dragon.

That's ok fellas. One day your body will start to 'change'. It's called puberty.
