QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Jul 26, 2006 -> 08:27 AM) great maybe we can avoid another sweep. I bet thats what Royals fan say alot too. Sad that it has come to that, but if we can win this game it is huge. The worst part of these losing ways is that Mark has been so off.

The Royals better play like this when they play the Indians in their next series. No one can beat the Indians. Let's root for the wild card. Hey, it's still the playoffs.

If the Sox lose tomorrow it's just about over. Ozzie better go in the f***ing locker room and just throw a chair or something and absolutely let everyone have it. GET THEIR ATTENTION OZZIE! They are taking this lead they once had for granted and it's getting pathetic. The Sox owe their fans more than this.

QUOTE(Queen Prawn @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 09:25 PM) This is unf***ingreal. I want to vent so much, but what's the f***ing point? Whatever. If the team doesn't give a s***, why should I? Why is it that we the fans seem to take this much harder than the team? Honestly, they do look like they don't give a s***. Well, the pitching that is. THE f***ING ROYALS! GOD DAMMIT, THIS IS THE f***ING ROYALS! Beat the bottom feeders, the first step to making the playoffs. Is anyone here gonne be a Sox fan still if they miss the playoffs?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 14, 2005 -> 09:24 PM) World Series winning teams do not do this in September. World series winning teams? WORLD SERIES WINNING TEAMS? Why can't we just focus on the playoffs which we also have a huge change of missing.

I am at a loss for words. We aren't going to the playoffs. This couldn't have been loss any worse way.

A terrible call on a foul ball by Pods. That was a fair ball.

I'm sick and tired of Freddy's I don't give a damn attitude. He's the Carlos Lee of pitching. 3 runs for KC in 2 outings in a row for him? That's pathetic. And this time they have the 2 runs after one inning. And some people say Freddy should be our opening pitcher in the playoffs? He can't even beat the god damn Royals! Uribe at the plate, I bet he can pitch better than Garcia right now.

This is where I question Ozzie's managing skills

Freddy needs to do better than his last outing in KC. That was also a really bad series for us though. Considering we lost to the Royals twice.

This is where the stupidity of Ozzie comes in to place. He comes out to the mound as Contreras is about to load the bases and says hey your fine buddy go out there and get it done. Contreras has thrown lots of pitches by now and Ozzie has allowed him to pitch in an inning that let the Royals get back in the game. There aren't any outs yer either. They could even take the lead. He has to stop throwing wild pitches with men on third. Contreras and Garcia do that all the time.

Only makes sense for Iguchi to end the inning. I love seeing us hitting well again though. Let's keep it up for Contreras!

So you see DJ spent all that time bragging about how good Berroa is at defense. Then, he fields a ball terribly and throws it in to the stands allowing Uribe to score with 2 outs. The 2 out runs continue. I do love to see that, even if they are coming with errors.

Nice stab by Crede. Another 1-2-3 inning for Contreras. This would be a great game for everything to click again. Even if it is the Royals.

I hate how much praise DJ is giving to Angel Berroa for his defense. I don't think he has ever seen Angel Berroa play before. In 2004, Berroa was sent to AAA because he was so bad at defense.

I know this much, I don't want to see David Sanders EVER replace Marte. This guy is a complete junkballer who is not an arm we need in our bullpen.

Oh how the mighty have fallen. I loved Marte in 2003, but he struggled so much in 2004 after opening day that I had a feeling he would never be the same.

Thanks a lot pal

I have a feeling we are about to get serious and go back to our April formula of just winning series again. One at a time. With this mentality we will be able to take this division and prevent the Indians from pulling off the late comeback. I would however like to say, play Gload some more. "White Sox White Sox Go Go White Sox.....Let's GO GO GO WHITE SOX We're with you all the way!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

It absolutely has to be Jeff Torborg. This guy is a great announcer every time he is on Fox. He is a great option in my opinion.

I watched the game and it appeared to me like the Indians might have a slump coming on? Wow that would be great. They have been hitting for so long, I wouldn't be shocked.

This place treats members way better than WSI anyways. Cheers to Soxtalk!

How do you get a picture that you made in paint or photoshop in your sig?

I wouldn't worry too much about Liriano. He reminds me of Edison Volquez, the Rangers pitcher who we just absolutely owned in Texas. Volquez hit 97 also, and changed speeds in a 20+ MPH range.

In everyone's opinion, does Ozzie need to do what the Angels did to us this weekend and basically put out the same lineup everyday to start beating teams. This being his A-lineup. Or should Ozzie shake it up a bit and play some different people every day? My lineup opinion for entire week LF Pods 2B Gooch DH Everett 1B Konerko CF Rowand RF Dye C AJ SS Uribe 3B Crede/Ozuna I think the only interchangeable guys should be Crede and Ozuna.
