QUOTE(DonkeyKongerko @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:52 PM) f*** I love Frank Catalanotto. Why isn't he on our team? cause we didnt like him

even a blind squirrel finds a nut every once in a while

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:46 PM) They're not making the playoffs if the offense doesn't pick it up. they may not win the division but it's such a statistical longshot that they don't make the playoffs via the wildcard

i hope no one actually believes that this team will play any different than they are right now in the playoffs.

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:40 PM) what? 2 hard hit balls that should have been a hit/homerun, is excuting, i'm sorry. hitting the ball on the ground to the right side is executing with less than 2 outs and runners on second and third. "shoulda/coulda/woulda" isn't actually getting the job done.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:33 PM) They just crushed two balls with RISP. AJs ball was hit hard too. wtf do you want them to do exactly. We need to catch a break. catch a break? what kind of dumbass statement is that?!? we need to EXECUTE not rely on luck.

it's great to see that the sox are in playoff form the last week. cause just like in the playoffs they tighten up with men on base and can't score runs.

QUOTE(maggliopipe @ Sep 26, 2005 -> 08:57 PM) Us taking 2/3 from Detroit-easy. Tampa Bay taking 1/3 from Cleveland-easy. Then we just have to win one game in Cleveland. I like our chances. what happened to the 4th detroit game?

the funniest s*** is the fact that ozzie is saying he'll retire if the sox win the world series.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 09:16 PM) You have a theory that rookies/young players cannot be on a world series caliber team. That theory is flawed... but no one even compared or said jenks was as good as k-rod. now that's total b.s. people have been comparing jenks to k-rod since day one.

NO WAY MAN, HE'S JUST AS GOOD AS K-ROD WAS FOR THE ANGELS.

just wanna say HI to all those who keep comparing bobby jenks to k-rod.

QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 09:03 PM) Really? It's baseball, nothing is ever easy. Oh wait, edit, except for all the arm chair managers. nothing is easier than a 15 game lead at the beginning of august. but obviously bad managing and a gm that doesn't make a move don't want the easy road.

QUOTE(JimH @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:59 PM) Awwwww ... "I won't post in the game threads for the rest of the year" The team sucked tonite, tomorrow is another day, this is gonna go down to the wire. No one said it'd be easy. everyone said it'd be easy with a 15 game lead.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:51 PM) ANYTHING IS BETTER THAN MISSING THE PLAYOFFS! The franchise would take a massive hit if they completely collapse. what hit? this is the franchise that has gone the second longest without winning a championship. this is the franchise that THREW a world series. this is the franchise that cuts off it's nose to spite it's face. it doesn't really matter. they've crushed most of their fandom anyways.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:47 PM) It's funny that I'm the one saying this, but keep the faith buddy! This team still has a veyr good chance of making the playoffs. making the playoffs and getting swept in 3 straight ya mean.

WOOT!! HERE COMES BORCHARD AND GLOAD TO SAVE THE f***ING DAY

this team proves to the nation why chicago baseball is a laughingstock

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:42 PM) Christ, 4 home runs this series for Hafner. That's 30 this season for him. he's the new jim thome. and we'll be f***ing braindead like we always are and will give him pitches to hit 500ft.

f*** THIS TEAM. f*** EM!

this scrub coming in to pitch for us is ozzie putting up the white flag.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:38 PM) Damn Blackhawks are losing 2-1 to Calgary...Khabibulins Hawk Debut!!! thanks, i needed that lol

boooooooooooooo

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:30 PM) Look, just remember this. Next year, our closer and our 5th starter will be paid $400,000 a piece. It will stay that way for several years. Right now, we seriously cannot afford to trade away young people. This team has a lot of guys getting paid decently well, and a lot of guys who are going to go up in price. The only way we can afford to keep any of these pieces together, including just hte top 2 in our pitching staff, will be to have some young guys take the places of people. You cannot build a team of all veterans on a $75 million salary and have them be winners. You need youth. who gives a s*** about next year? who's even thinking about next year? it's all about RIGHT NOW. that is exactly the kind on thinking that is the reason this franchise has not won a world series in almost a century. that's the difference between ny, boston, and us. legacy of losers. unfortunately many of the fans have bought into this line of thinking.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Sep 21, 2005 -> 08:24 PM) This team did more to improve itself by not meeting people's price than it would have by doing so. By not meeting people's prices, we got ourselves a cheap potential #1 starter and a 100 mph closer. mccarthy and jenks aren't jack s*** on a world series champion. but we act like they are our ace in the hole.
