Well, the MSM is in 100% 'if you don't vote for Obama you are a racist' mode lol I think the Dems have found their way to lose an election that was bascially impossible to lose. They are going insane on the Sunday morning shows Obama was compared to Lincoln, Kennedy, Roosevelt. McCain? Well he would be the worst president in History, according to MSM news media atleast. There is no way this stuff going to work. Even with Obama's free media (mainstream news media basically being a free 24/7 political ad for him) I think people will see past this blatantly false propaganda. Eh, or maybe not. I guess the general public can be dumb as hell sometimes.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ May 23, 2008 -> 08:19 PM) We have enough power...lets get a speedy little s*** with a high OBP to take over DH and bat him first. that would be hilarious i guess he couldn't do any worse than Thome

bad call on that one

The DH situation needs to be addressed. Thome can't hit

Horrible

hey it's the new guy

could have been worse i suppose

QUOTE (fathom @ May 23, 2008 -> 06:52 PM) It would be nice for this offense to start showing up for the first few innings. It would give our starters a little breathing room. It's a good thing our pitching has been so good. Look at these batting averages. 5 starters right at the Mendoza line. O. Cabrera .219 P. Konerko .212 N. Swisher .208 J. Thome .208 A. Ramirez .203 / J. Uribe .198

i knew he was gonna get that double play

i knew once dye struck out we had no chance of scoring (Thome up next)

QUOTE (kane0730 @ May 23, 2008 -> 02:37 PM) I hope Anderson is in the line-up for one of Thome, Kong, Swisher tonight. i like this idea

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 23, 2008 -> 11:27 AM) Joe Biden has an excellent WSJ piece on this matter today. LOL Biden voted for the Iraq war. This guys character is about as bad as his ridiculous hair plugs.

QUOTE (lostfan @ May 21, 2008 -> 09:27 AM) He's trying his best to walk a fine and dangerous line. eh, every candidate goes a little off to the left or right during the primaries... then more to the middle for the general election.

What a hatchet job on Q, the tribune should be ashamed. Of course, someone on the Sox comes through on their top prospect potential and the Tribune accuses them of being on steroids. This from the same paper that didn't say jack about Spammy Sosa all of a sudden growing into a hulk and jacking 60 homeruns a season.

Game! 8 in a row

Dye, AJ, and Q all with decent batting averages. the only ones that seem to contribute consistently. unlike our lousy .200 solo homerun hitters

Q!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He K's of course what a terrible hitter we traded for

Q !

Of course, now he commits an error

Oh Cabrera, you and your weak ground outs with runners in scoring position

RBI for Q

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 22, 2008 -> 02:42 PM) And those 2nd gen hybrids that Toyota and Honda are working on, that are close to 100 mpg territory, are a year or two off. 100 mpg would be big

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 22, 2008 -> 03:08 PM) We are probably about 2 years away from GM having the Chevy Volt on the market, which should be able to do the goal of being rechargeable overnight and being able to run 40 miles per day on batteries, covering most of people's travel demands. It'd be like going 100 miles per gallon or more in terms of the carbon released (depending on the exact source of the electric) and more like several hundred MPG in terms of costs to the consumer. In terms of Toyota and Honda, I honestly don't know. There are companies already out there that are converting Priuses in to those sorts of plug-ins. I really think the batteries need to be more powerful than even that. I'm thinking about a breakthrough like using an barium-titanate powder driven ultracapacitor system rather than electrochemical batteries. At least get something that is a big improvement over the battery technology we use now.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 22, 2008 -> 02:43 PM) Better to push hard as hell on alternatives, to decrease demand and get us away from foreign oil. Definitely. We also need greatly improve battery technology so when we do get alternative energy sources more available we can juice up cars with this energy.
