QUOTE (mr_genius @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 08:43 PM) throwing baseball sized rocks at a police officers head, close range, will probably get a US teenager shot. maybe you could try it and tell me what happens. see if my theory pans out. On the bright side, if you ever feel the urge to throw baseball sized rocks at people, there are a bunch of people who don't seem to care if you did it to them.

QUOTE (maki @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 08:09 PM) Lol, and lou just says in the in-game interview with Morgan that he's gonna start playing Colvin regularly. So when does he apologize to Steve Stone for being a dbag?

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 08:47 PM) This is just pure hell. Nah, hell would have been losing the first two games, and then Gavin going out like Moyer did in his last start.

QUOTE (maki @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 07:57 PM) I don't even know if the latest article qualifies as journalism in any capacity. I couldn't tell you the last thing he did that actually would.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 08:37 PM) Nice play Nix. Nice setup. Shame Nix had to get that error. It'd be sweet to end 9 innings with 24 zeros on the board. So for the record, that is 5 errors in 27 chances for Nix at 3B. I don't know that I would have ever dreamed of saying this before this weekend, but I can't wait for Omar to get back here.

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 08:06 PM) I'm not disagreeing with you, but what has he done? Not much info on wiki. Just saying "believe me, he can do it" doesn't really mean much. I think a lot of people are projecting their beliefs onto Rick Hahn. He has never led a team, how would complete strangers already know his "philosophy"? Right now he works for someone, so his philosophy is whatever Kenny Williams tells him it is. How do we know it wouldn't be something completely different if it was up to him?

QUOTE (aprec32 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 08:36 PM) Odd question......does anyone know what Hawk does on nationally broadcasted games? I'm guessing it doesn't involve pants.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 07:44 PM) The kids should have opened fire in response. That's the Kap way. Actually his way would have been for the kids not to do something illegal and violent.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 07:50 PM) LOL at Miller getting the year wrong on the Cubs's last series win. I got at laugh out of him getting Lilly's hitting line wrong with the real line right there on the TV.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 07:44 PM) Hahahaa, Gavin's "injury" was that he swallowed his gum during his follow through. That makes the reactions on here even funnier...

Well he is pitching through it,.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 06:35 PM) I knew that was coming, the question was, who would post it first? Oh, I am just the quickest poster... I am sure the line would have been long and illustrious.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 04:57 PM) It does and it's also directly related to them coming over here and straining our resources which is why I think Arizona's new immigration laws are silly. You get in a car accident, do you put on a couple of Band-Aids and hold your car together with duct tape, and paint it the color of your car? Well if you are paying for insurance, at that point your insurance company gets your car fixed. Unfortunately in this situation, our "insurance" company has pretty much decided to give us the middle finger.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 06:29 PM) Tell her next time she's going to get a drillhole through the center of the phone with a keychain put through it. Then maybe she won't lose it. I'm going to be such an asshole when my kids get older and understand that their actions have equal and unjustified reactions. Wait, you are going to get worse?

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 04:42 PM) So, in your mind, it is appropriate? And you've a bad analogy there. I would hope police and border patrol are held to a little higher standard than a drunk in a bar. They're supposed to be professionals. They're not supposed to shot someone unless their own life or another's is in danger. Stop making excuses or canards about Obama being mean to BP. Which is exactly what they believed.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 03:51 PM) Apparently, according to Strasburg, he pissed well. He and Storen really like each other. THAT is some in depth coverage right there.

QUOTE (balfanman @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 02:55 PM) "At the point where I've tried doing it their way this last month, sadly enough the numbers speak for themselves, and that way doesn't totally work," Flowers said. "I have to go back to the old me. I have to go back to my style of hitting, while implementing the little things Walk [White Sox hitting coach Greg Walker] and Kenny talked about. . I'm just trying to clarify something here. Who is the "Their" that he's talking about in the article? I'm asking because I believe that someone on this board has already stated that Flowers had a third party (not associated with the White Sox) try to alter his swing. Without knowing the whole interview, it could be interpreted as Flowers is giving up on the new swing that had nothing to do with Walker, or the Sox; and is going back to his old swing with some added suggestions from Walker & KW. Does anyone know for sure who persuaded him to change his swing? I would imagine it would be Buddy Bell, but that is just a guess.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 09:36 AM) I wouldn't say he pitched great, as there's no excuse to walk the leadoff man. With that said, I give him credit for pitching on 3 straight days. He didn't have his best fastball, but he found a way to get 3 outs without losing the lead. I will say though that greg thinks that we like Jose Paniagua more than Jenks, and that's just not true. Well he did have him struck out...

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Jun 13, 2010 -> 09:50 AM) That's because I support the players, all of them. They're "our" guys, as someone on here once said. Unfortunately, there are people on this board who have the attitude that if a player is not a top 30 prospect, he isn't s**t. If a player is doing well, it doesn't matter to some people if he's not one of the big names. Some just don't respect the minor league players, they're just currency to them. If I could play catcher for a rookie level team, I'd be thrilled to death, and I don't even like playing catcher. There's a reason why guys play minor league or independant ball until they're 35-40 years old. There are just some posters on Soxtalk that are basically nothing buy haters, jealous that they are not pro baseball players and have their spouse supporting them every step of the way. Since I cannot play my favorite sport, I can at least enjoy the season tickets I have for the Barons. And, I'll always be out there to support those guys, because I know they appreciate it. I have a $200 baseball glove given to me personally by Micah Schnurstein to prove that appreciation. That's a great post.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 07:13 PM) You haters are f***ing insane. He didn't get hit hard. he did the job ... again. Putz also gave up a double. What the f*** with the Jenks hate??? Give me a break already. It was a competitive game and inning and he got the save!!!!! Seriously, take it down a notch.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 06:33 PM) Jenks? Once again we see the dark side of our closer-he has too many of these games where he allows baseruuners in a save situation and eithr gives up a run or two or just barely gets out of it. Your closer shuts the opposition down period! I am getting tired of his chameleon act Jenks shouldn't have allowed a run. The plate in the ninth for Jenks was nothing like it had been the whole game. He should have struck out the first hitter that reached. He also had the guy who got the RBI struck out if the plate was anything like Marmol was getting.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 06:24 PM) And it's not just a coincidence that we've gotten 4 outstanding (5 when you include Floyd's last outing) starts in a row. Isn't it funny how much better a team looks when their supposed strength performs like expected? What an amazing concept! But who cares. It's all Ozzie and Kenny's fault. Fire both of them! Yep. This team begins and ends with pitching. Don't forget two of our last three wins have come with scoring two and three runs.

Nice play Gordo

No soup for Sori
