QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 07:29 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I don't expect them to win tonight I don't expect them to win tomorrow This does not affect my perception of their playoff chances I do not believe that Boof Bonser, Carlos Silva and a 1-armed Brad Radke are noticably more effective than any of our three starters over the long haul. Sorry. Its not Boof Bonser...its BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOF Bonser!

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 07:20 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It's funny, but outside of hitting homers, the Twins are so much better than us in every imaginable aspect. our uniforms smoke theirs....i dont know what you are talking about.... + chicks in socal that dont know jack about baseball think my uni says SEX not SOX!

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 07:14 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Thanks for letting us know how to be a fan. Maybe you can hand out literature at soxfest and get a booth on sox fan dos and donts. You can just cross off the cubs logo on the literature they use, and then write in sox. cool idea...then i can start collecting them....hmmmmm

you have to make an attempt to get out of the way....you cant just let the ball hit you....

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 09:47 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ronge can't possibly believe its acceptable to make the 2nd out of the inning at home plate. THANKGODYOURALIVEDICKALLEN!!! Joey Cora WTF? How many times this year do we take the pressure off the situation? Rediculous! 1&3 w/ one out with the potential to bury them....completely blown opp! Almost every time in my 37 years that a team goes out and commits mental baseball sin....at the end of the game you say to yourself....yep that cost us! QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 10:08 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> wow just got back, what a frustrating game besides the fact that we beat ourselves in the game, it was really frustrating to see the satisfaction of obnoxious twinky fans in my section The twins simply kick our ass, they own us, and its our f***ing fault hopefully we can win tomorrow with that said...MINN gets to the playoffs, plays the NYY and look like little girls without their skirts! when we show up to the dance....we WINTHEENTIREFREAKINGTHINGNOMESS!

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 09:00 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Ban my ass, I don't care. I'm tired of people defending things that aren't even close to being controversial. if we ban your ASS then we will still have to deal with the REST of you.....

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 08:57 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Here's a solution: just pull Vazquez after the 5th inning if the outcome is still in doubt. GENIUS! It is too late in the season to have a pattern unpattern itself! Not only is JV unsure of why it keeps happening but the TWINS and every team that faces him knows they are going to get him in the 6th. I am sure that Pierzynski after he hit the homerun went over to JV and pointed his finger in his face and said "that was for you"!

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 08:58 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No, but it definitely changed the momentum in a game where Radke had nothing. a 3rd base coach doesnt need to risk the out at home with less than 2 outs and the leadoff hitter due up! end of story! he needed to prepare his mind for the situation before it happened instead of reacting instinctively....

QUOTE(UC76 @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 08:56 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Why didn't Jenks pitch the ninth? Joe Torre woulda had him in there faster than lightning! First of all you make the Twins beat your BEST! then if we lose then yes our BEST wasnt good enough.... Secondly if Jenks puts a zero up....then you force Garderhire to possibly bring in Nathan in a nonsave opp. I woulda had Jenks in this game for 6 outs if the score was tied after 8 & the whole team woulda known it before the game even started....

1. Cora shouldnt be waving anybody in that situation unless he is darn near %100 especially with less than 2 outs. 2. OZ shoulve definitely pulled JV after the 5th no questions asked. 3. OZ shoulda made Jenks pitch 9th...you make them beat your best...especially in a nonsave situation. other than that "what new?"

QUOTE(cgaudin @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 08:40 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> We let too many opportunities slip away. I guess no one should second-guess Ozzie for leaving his starters in too long from here on out. That bullpen can't get anybody out. i am surprised he didnt use Jenks in the 9th. Torre wouldve probably used Mariano for 2 if needed in the same situation.

a big mental mistake by Joey Cora really cost us tonight! who knows the outcome of that inning if he doesnt wave em....

well there goes the intentional walk to DYE

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 07:16 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> I can hate them, but it doesn't mean that I won't root for them to contribute to this team. I honestly think thought that Pods and Cora are the worst MLB players/coaches at that particular position. this fan forum is an extension of the stands packed with only whitesoxfans...... if some guy sittin next to me at a whitesox game with whitesox gear on yelled out "i hate you OZ, PODS & JC" it would definitely bother the hell outta me. OZ learned that if he doesnt have anything positive to say....well he aint supposed to say it....

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 25, 2006 -> 07:11 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> David Riske is a terrible clutch pitcher. Where in the f*** is Brandon McCarthy? I HATE YOU OZZIE GUILLEN, SCOTT PODSEDNIK, AND JOEY CORA! a good friend will pick you up when you are down..... look we all know that BMac shoulda started that inning...but you dont hate nobody on our team damnit!!!

!!!!!!!!!!!WE ARE THE WORLD SERIES CHAMPIONS!!!!!!!!!!!
