i will say it again. this team is very special because it really doesn't beat itself with untimely errors or rediculous walks. i know the O has struggled the last 70 games but if we get back to stealing bases in the playoffs we are going to put the pressure back on the opponents like we did in the first half. IMO this team is going to go as far as PODS & IGUCHI take us. if they get on base and score then we win, if not then we could be in trouble.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 07:20 PM) For real? Damn, never woulda guessed. You only have like 814.62 quotes regarding him on hand. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> & for good reason. that guy was a stud his first day in a chisox uni! so if he isn't on the WS roster & we win it does that mean that BIGF doesn't get a ring? that would be like Walter not getting the touchdown in the SB instead to fatass #72.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Sep 29, 2005 -> 07:19 PM) I really hope tomorrow's line-up is something like this: Ozuna (3b) Perez (LF) Gload (1b) Anderson (CF) Borchard (RF) Widger © Blum (SS) Cassanova (DH) Harris (2b) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> HOLY COW!

today is the day we waited for all year. did i mention how highly i think of JC yet? this guy is the best thing going & we have em! i remember seeing him get bombed by the mariners in Peoria, Az in springtraining & having to listen to all the jabs by all the fans thru the first half of the season. Not to mention how he was rudely run out of NY. I CANT SAY IT ENOUGH TIMES....I AM SO PROUD OF JC! BTW we will play Anaheim right? Looking forward to some tailgaiting in the ParkLot with some of the fellas here!

can you say PLAYOFFS? where is that mora soundbyte? all night long fellas. Gdamnthisseasonhasbeenapainintheassbutyihayyay!

QUOTE(Lefty Of Love @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 06:06 PM) Broussard leads off bottom 8th w/a double for CLE <{POST_SNAPBACK}> boone fails on 2 bunt attempts grounds out to short stuck on 2nd fans booo

he is k'ing everybody when he needs it!

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:53 PM) Thanks! Where is our national TV coverage? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> it is time for us sox fans to give JC his due. this guy singlehandedly got us in the playoffs. absolutely singlehandedly! nice thing is that nobody is talking about him. he should emerge as the absolute darling of the playoffs & WS. follow that up with BMac & it is now time to really get excited about this team.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:34 PM) STOP IT! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> JC JC JC JC!!!!! I love that dude! He was cool in SD when I met him and he was struggling. Everybody wanted him out of town. I gave him that smile, shook his hand, told him he was going to win a WS game, & ever since that guy has turned to gold! i say more of me getting to games and shaking hands with the club!

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:31 PM) Blue Jays have a chance to break open their game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> that is why we are going to clinch playoff spot tonight! i say we all bend our ladies over real hard tonight!

i just wanna say that JC is right now tied with Johan Santana as the best pitchers in the AL. i am so happy that KW's made that deal happen. & it all stems back to Esteban doing well enough to have trade value. i hope we play the yankees first and that JC kicks their butts!

we just clinched the playoffs! two negatives = positive. in our case it is all whitesox fans = positive!! now what does it take to go in the playoffs?

QUOTE(downstairs @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:16 PM) No, no. DJ is. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> DJ isn't an idiot. He is just as boring as they get. I will say that he is better than Early Winn was....that guy had me changing the channel on the radio....i thought i lost the station because he wouldn't talk for a couple of hitters at a time...he was really sleepy.

just for kicks i wonder how many runs we would score if the tigers only had a center fielder in the outfield

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:09 PM) OK white Sox hitters, take notes. -- This is how you get a runner home from second base. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i will say that this year has all of us sox fans scratching our heads.....even though we can't score to save our mums lives....the most confounding thing is that we haven't been committing any errors to just put the stake in us. in the past we would have committed at least 10 errors in the last week just to really put us out of our misery. i hope i didn't just jenks the hell out of us...

after seeing stat on comcast it looks like the reason the sox aren't winning the 1 run games anymore is that we stopped stealing bases.

tor 2 bos 0

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 03:54 PM) right, but in his interview with Rooney I thought he said they're expecting him at anytime. Hard to understand what the hell he's saying. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> hopefully the only pressing the sox are doing is bench pressing. we are going to need to flex our deltoids alot in the playoffs for the cameras! like a buddy of mine told me...."it isn't the kind of car you drive that is important, it is the size of the arm that you stick out the window.."

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 02:59 PM) I'd rather have a doubleheader tomorrow, as we'd likely get more of a split-squad lineup from the Tigers in one of the games. Also, it would be cool to clinch the Wild Card if we were to win both in one game. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> yes that is exactly what we need to win 2 games when only one is played. a true sox fan!

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 02:35 PM) ah, so close and late in a ballgame. those numbers reek. Looks like they might get in 5 or 6 innings before the rain starts, so I'd bet they'll try to get it in. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> that is exactly what is going to happen. a rain shortened game is going to determine our sake tonight....being a lifer i can only expect the worst and think i died when something good happens.

i say shame on the SF Giants for letting the Pads get over with a sub 500 record. that is the biggest reason to puke this year.

"LINEUP CHANGE: Guillen said he is considering taking Carl Everett out of the designated hitter role today and using Paul Konerko as the DH with Ross Gload playing first base. Before getting a sixth-inning single Tuesday, Everett had five hits in his last 42 at-bats" suntimes article

QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 07:19 PM) Contreras gets a win. Print it. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> i have already read that newspaper! the sox are still 4 games up on the loss side of either bos or ny with 5 to play....we are esentially in the playoffs.

may the crede family have the strength to deal with their situation!
