QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 01:12 PM) all-star ballot update: only 2 non-yankees currently in the starting lineup, Hamilton and Bautista. That's bound to change. Ugh.

Let's get another run....I hate Papelbum.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 01:08 PM) Great job Sale! Don't ya love it when Sale is good?

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 01:07 PM) 1-2-3! Do that one more time.

OK. Now we just need 6 outs. That's not asking for much.

Way to go again, Chris!

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 1, 2011 -> 12:43 PM) Need nine outs here. Nothin' to it.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 31, 2011 -> 08:46 PM) This Heat team was put together to ruin lives. And the NBA seems to back them all the way. The refs are assuring them a championship. S**t!

People were pretty rough on Bruney. I don't think he was that bad. The single up the middle was a seeing-eye hit. That was very nearly playable. As for the "double", that should have been caught. I was way more pi$$ed off about Ohman giving up the homer to Ortiz. What good is this guy if he can't get the lefties? What a worthless bum.

QUOTE (flavum @ May 31, 2011 -> 07:15 PM) Beckham was hitting .199 after game 57 last year. This year-.241. Improving. So he should be up to around .400 by September? Actually, I guess I had forgotten that he was that horrid early last year. Gotta love .241.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 31, 2011 -> 07:07 PM) Sox win 2-0 starting game threads. Sure as hell don't want to mess with a trend. Hint hint.

Too bad 10-1 turned into 10-7 and a Save situation but it's a win. Now let's sweep these bums!!

QUOTE (Soxfest @ May 31, 2011 -> 09:22 AM) I will try for 2 in a row! You can do it!

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 31, 2011 -> 01:02 PM) Twenty-two runs tonight would be pretty fantastic. Hell yeah. And this team is nowhere near as bad as that 1970 team.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ May 31, 2011 -> 11:58 AM) My guess is the game wasn't shown in HD? No, but I distinctly remember that it was in color.

I remember very well watching that game on TV. I was at a friends summer cottage at Powers Lake, WI. When you're my age you remember weird stuff but I really don't recall what I had for dinner last night.

QUOTE (T R U @ May 29, 2011 -> 04:31 PM) Ok, so not counting 2007 his win avg. is much greater than 86 I can play this game too!! You started that game. Whatever you think of his overall record the White Sox are right now really BAD and when teams under perform the manager is often shown the door. That's just the way it is.

QUOTE (T R U @ May 29, 2011 -> 04:13 PM) Ozzie has avg 86 wins a season at the helm, as I already said in the other thread.. And a lot of those times, its been without the same level of talent as the other contending teams.. Is it really Ozzies fault that Rios cant hit water if he fell out of a boat? It must be because of Ozzie that Adam Dunn suddenly forgot how to be worth a damn.. Where is the line here of who is to blame? The coach who seemingly HAS been able to get the most out of what hes been giving, or the dude who gave him these mediocre players in the first place? Weve already gone over a million times how KW hasn't really made any good moves in years.. well what if someone was GM that WAS making good moves.. do you think this team would still be under performing with Ozzie as manager? I don't. Not counting 2005, Ozzie's win avg. is a much more mediocre 83 and I would say that the level of talent on the White Sox over the course of his reign has been superior at least in the Central to that of the other teams. Of course all the woes of the White Sox are not directly Ozzie's fault but pretty much the same could be said of every other manager/head coach in the history of sports who has ever been fired. The White Sox have a lot of problems. Changes need to be made and I feel like a major overhaul at the top level (manager and coaching staff) would be a good start.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 29, 2011 -> 01:40 PM) I posted this in another thread. Its time for him to go. The minute you start ripping on the fans in some fit of rage because the seat gets a bit hot. You have overstayed your welcome. " Lee Elia says "Hi!".

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 29, 2011 -> 01:07 PM) So is everybody in agreement Oz will be fired tonight or after the Boston series? Or will it be Oz/KW both getting the pink slip tonight or after Boston? This is the White Sox we're talking about. As much as we would agree that something has got to be done....alas, nothing will be done.
