QUOTE (G&T @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 08:12 PM) Has there ever been a team that lost it's last 6 games to lose a playoff spot? The Mets last year was bad but it was different because they were way ahead and collapsed.

Im 99% sure I could close out this game and Ive never played organized baseball in my life.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 08:09 PM) Tallest midgets. Id take that then being the shortest giants like the Brewers are gonna be.

QUOTE (G&T @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 07:08 PM) How are Twins doing lately? They suck as bad as the Sox. About to go to the playoffs?

QUOTE (G&T @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 07:08 PM) How are Twins doing lately? They suck as bad as the Sox. I was half joking

82 was my high school football number...could be a sign...

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 07:05 PM) I think that's the attitude that's gotten them into trouble. It's not a big park, so why not get guys who have a line drive approach? With the small park, a lot of those line drives will go out anyway. But more importantly, the team is less likely to slump and will be better on the road. A good example of building wisely with that kind of park is the Phillies. Yes, they have Burrell and Howard, but the rest of their lineup is filled with guys like Victorino, Rollins and Utley, all line-drive hitters. And they hit plenty of home runs. The Sox are not alone in falling prey to the idea that a small park means you need power. But I have never understood why teams in smaller parks feel like they have to get big thumpers up and down their lineup -- home runs will come in these places WITHOUT going for power guys. I think its a bad idea to only go after players that work for your stadium completely, unless you are the Twins.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 07:02 PM) While I'm not a big fan of Swisher, in a way I kind of feel sorry for him right now. relax, his hair will grow back

Maybe we should sign Usein Bolt and lead him off? They do it in football and he cant be any worse at getting on base then some of the guys we got.

I bet Alexi is getting an ear full from Walker for walking instead of swinging for the fences on any pitch.

QUOTE (Sox It To Em @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 06:58 PM) This team doesn't believe in stringing walks and hits together. Home runs, baby! Two things that can help you understand the 2008 White Sox. Chicks dig the long ball and a short fall.

I wonder if Dailey is in the front row telling AJ to bunt Alexi over

Konerko takes a page from Sammy Sosa

I cant believe that we still control our own destiny with this...

This works for me. Zack Jackson is the anchor of my fantasy baseball team.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 07:31 PM) This team is really in trouble...even though we could still theoretically make the playoffs on Monday, STILL. We have to do a fire sale on Vazquez and Swisher at their lowest possible value. I wonder what KW will come up with in the off-season to keep the season ticket holders from revolting? Sox Fest will be interesting again. Angry Sox fans are more dangerous than apathetic Sox fans. I wouldnt call for a fire sale. If anything we uncovered Floyd, Ramirez and Quentin and Danks improved. Its nice to have some young talent to build around instead of aging power hitters.

They should let the Royals go to the playoffs instead of either the Twins or the Sox. How can two teams in their situations play like this?

I like Comcast. The only gripe I have with them is there customer service. If you ever have an issue its ridiculous to work with them.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 08:55 AM) Your reply has nothing to do with elitism. The McCain's have a ton of houses and cars while the Obama's have one of each. So punish them because they are successful? Obama doesnt exactly live in a hut, he lives in a multimillion dollar mansion.

QUOTE (letsgoarow @ Sep 27, 2008 -> 06:29 PM) Thank you KC.... LETS WIN THIS s*** unbelievable

Obamas idea of middle class is people that make 30k

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Sep 22, 2008 -> 10:05 AM) Another example of Obama being an elitist and McCain being like one of us. Should this be in green? Obama had a Hemi until he got s*** for it and he copped out to be a hybrid.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 09:02 PM) McCain couldnt even say Ahmadinejad's name. that was pretty funny. Took him 3 or 4 tries to get it right. Who can

Obama won the debate if it was against George Bush. Thats all he really has on McCain in this department. As far as good line go, I also liked, What are you going to do, have Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sitting across the table from you, have him say hes going to blow Israel off the map and say, oh no youre not?

Couldnt he have let that roll foul?
