I'm sure the Score will be all over it when anything breaks Ya i asked about Reinsdorf cuz if changes were going to be made, you'd assume he'd be around

Is Reinsdorf anywhere to be seen?

Cant help but notice there's almost 15 people reading this thread waiting for info...me included

I'm #1...as in Carlos Lee BASHER

I love the double-stuf oreos

Rome sucks as does his show, the final word sucked too...some of his opinions on things are just so far off that i can't even stand to listen to the guy

Flashy

I can't stand how America is trying to rid itself of racism yet you have crap like this that just exemplifies that racism exists...it's pointless you can hire whoever in the hell you want to hire and the best qualified person will get the job

I love watching the guy pitch...it's too bad they've put two consecutive Prior starts on WCIU...awful

If Val is in for Graff i want Manuel's head on a stick

I don't know how much I agree with this article...i basically get the sense he wants Manuel gone, that's pretty obvious. But he fails to address how much KW is meddling with this damn team and affecting the way Manuel manages. That's a huge issue he didn't talk about. Another thing that struck me was when he talked about Ward and Manuel said "The players at some point have to take on responsibility. They can't keep looking for a [new] coach here, a [new] manager there. They have to own up to their careers and what they're about. It's that simple.'' In other words, "own up to their careers and what they are about" should equal "don't listen to what Ward says because he has a wrong approach so go out and hit for yourself without any coaching, or rather, BAD coaching." That doesn't make any sense to me. Coaching is a HUGE part in sports...why in the hell would you have a damn hitting coach if you didn't think his job was to help the team? I would put a ton of the blame on this team on Ward and Mariotti puts none on Ward and all on Manuel. I don't think that's the fair way to spread the blame at this point.

Now you'll have to join Clujer and I in complaining everytime a WCIU game is on tv. I think with the power of Socal Sox fans, they should create a WCIU Chicago out here in Socal Throw me on that list, no stupid WCIU down in champaign....be home soon to see those games though

They showed a quote he had today saying he's being fed garbage and that if the pitchers don't give in there is nothing he can do Basically the baseball tonight crew of Ravech, Gammons, and Reynolds were dumbfounded....they were like "this is frank thomas???" Gammons is like "he had magglio ordonez hitting behind him...what more does he want?" They were pretty much ripping him apart for what he said.

No, see all the more reason to vote yes and make fun of the fact that they got rid of a hall of famer...not that the Sox would, a, do anything like that

Ah, the famous Maris asterisk...chalk that up on my side

They have to get by the Spurs first, 2-2 series. And i think Philly will beat Detroit and then beat the Nets...and if Detroit wins that series i still think they'll beat the Nets

Seattle and Oakland gone...but what about everyone else besides say tampa bay, detroit, and cleveland?

Oh and you're also the dumbass that thought the stats actually counted...shows how much you know about baseball...enough said right there...what other rule are you gonna make up now? You tell someone they are blatantly wrong and now you are just gonna keep defending yourself because you think they should count, you have too big an ego to admit you were ever wrong. You clearly said "wrong" to soxfest or whoever that was earlier, not "i'm sorry i believe you are wrong". You called someone out and got burnt like the big b**** you are. Deal with it instead of being a damn crybaby. Thanks for playing? That's cool, where'd you learn that one. I'd say the same to you but it doesn't seem like you are doing much participating, just unintelligent b****ing. I'm sorry if words like "RULE" and "FAIR" are not in your vocabulary. I can't do anything about that. PS thanks for playing right into my hands with the whole mcgwire/sosa scenario you brought up earlier...could you be a bigger idiot than winning the argument for me right there? Highly doubtful.

You used the word fairness. Ya, playing more than the 162 games that the rules say isn't fair. Think outside the rule box? Why the f*** do we have rules then "brotha man"??? There is no doubt that at bats, injuries, et al have something to do with luck...tell me when i said they didn't. However games played isn't luck because it's a set number. Therefore it is an unfair advantage if there are more games played for one guy over another, what don't you get about this concept. Do you have the mental aptitude of a 6th grader? And if you could read what the hell i write, you'd realize i already addressed the Clement situation. I already said the game DOESN'T COUNT. No stats count, it doesn't matter, the game was never played. In the same manner that someone could be helped by an extra game by hitting three home runs, they won't be hurt by it either because it DOESN'T COUNT. It's an extra game that doesn't count. Regardless of performance, it's not counted because it'd be the 163rd game of the season. Pretty damn simple. So once again if he wins the ERA title, so be it....i didn't see a 11 run bashing today, did you? If a game is cancelled it never happened, i don't know whether you know that yet or not considering you believed the stats counted for a long time. And about the moron thing...you just keep talking like that and try to stick up for yourself instead of letting your posts do the talking...though i can see why you are doing that cuz your posts are filled with bulls***...you know you've lost the argument when you have to try to convince everyone that you've won instead of just letting your arguments do it for you. "I won, look at me, i won" right buddy, right.

On your last point, ya i get the idea...IT'D BE BULLs***!!! Thanks for playing right into my hands buddy. That's classic. You fail to see that at bat variation is part of the game, and no rules restrict it. 162 games is a rule, it's a standard of the game. Oh, and arguing a status quo...i didn't know by supporting a RULE you lose an argument. I think you lose the argument based on the fact that you spew out complete bulls***, and more importantly, assume you win somehow...? And i'm not just talking about records, i'm talking about season titles for lots of things...i think i've mentioned a single season home run crown a few times...miss that too?

No no no, you see you use an overstatement to make a point...when someone can't see it. And you are simply not coming up with a reply to that point because you can't. And i know you can't. Injuries, lineups, and whatever else are variable and are part of the game, and everyone knows this. No one controls them. There's no rule. 162 games is a RULE. If you don't like the word principle, how bout "rule", mothaf***a?

Like i said, let a guy get 30 extra games in...then what are you going to say? Like i said earlier if 30 games is too many, so is 1. What's our response to that?

Whether or not you like the name calling, you are a moron. Injuries, lineups, and stadiums are totally different than playing EXTRA DAMN GAMES. There is no rule that says you have to get XXX at bats in a season, or be injured XXX games. If you get injured, that's PART OF THE GAME. The RULE says you play 162 games. There's no ifs, and's, or buts about it. It's a controlled variable and is not open to luck. It's something that the league controls and will control. You are comparing apples and oranges.

Crede is a rookie, lay the hell of of him...remember what he did towards the end of last year? He'll come around. He's one of the least of my worries right now.
