Chicago Trip
The worst time you can go to the Taste is later. If you can get there early, around lunch time, the crowds are pretty tame. It gets so insanely crowded during the nights it is impossible to really do too much.

Well if the Sox want to be sellers, they just got some competition.

Conservatives and the ACLU
QUOTE (kapkomet @ May 21, 2010 -> 07:37 PM) We had "race" fights every year. Every single year. This was actually a riot. People throwing bricks on Michigan Blvd etc. It made the national news.

Conservatives and the ACLU
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 21, 2010 -> 05:52 PM) I think this is a tough case though. The shirt isn't offensive - its a flag. For that matter, I don't care what country's flag it is, its still not offensive. I understand why schools are allowed to set rules like that, I just think the rules shouldn't allow them to be quite that sensitive about it. This doesn't teach kids how do deal with assholes, which they will encounter throughout their life - it teaches them that someone else will take care of that for them. It isn't about offensive necessarily, but it is about being disruptive. That is a big push, at least in the schools around here. This is coming from a place that saw a real life race riot in the early 90's.

Conservatives and the ACLU
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 21, 2010 -> 04:30 PM) I agree with this. Yes, they were undoubtedly being asses. Yes, they should be allowed to do that, when all they were doing was wearing US flag t-shirts. If they had started verbally assaulting the Hispanic students or something like that, then that's another issue. In public, yes. In a school building, not if the school doesn't approve. Just like a workplace, it is their prerogative to create the sort of environment they want, and that they think is safe.

So after hearing Calderon chastise Arizona, I am curious when he is overhauling Mexicos immigration laws?

Gotta agree with Cowley on this
QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 21, 2010 -> 03:54 PM) Joe Cowley is not the problem with this team I never said he was. And that has nothing to do with Cowley being a hack.

HAWKS WIN! HAWKS WIN THE STANLEY CUP!!
QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ May 21, 2010 -> 10:01 AM) Bernstein does not understand or like hockey. His bantering about how great the NBA is sickening. There is no sport more obviously fixed than the NBA, simply watch a game. The sport is a little too complex for a simple guy like that too grasp. I can't say that I am surprised.

Gotta agree with Cowley on this
How stupid is Joe Cowley that he can't figure out that this is a part of Kenny Williams job? I don't ever recall a Joe Cowley article on the plight of the Chicago Sun Times and what their steady spiral down the toilet has done to the quality of his newspaper. Why? BECAUSE IT IS HIS JOB TO SELL NEWSPAPERS, NOT TO BE HONEST. But then again I am sure when his mom tells me that "nothing is wrong" he believes her. Kenny Williams, nor anyone else in the organization, believes half of the stuff that they say on this topic. This is what they have to say. Anyone who can't figure that out deserves the Darwin Award that is in their future.

May Catch All White Sox Thread
QUOTE (fathom @ May 20, 2010 -> 10:56 PM) IT'S NOT BAD LUCK! It was a fly ball that took one bounce before it reached the wall. At our park, that's going to hop over the fence 75% of the time. Hawk's acting like there's never any ground rule doubles at our park. A foot forward and the bounce takes it off of the wall, or back and that ball shorthops the fence... either way it stays in play. It also seems like we had a play like this recently where the umpire allowed a runner for the other team to score on a ground rule double in a similar situation (fast runner off of 1B who would have scored on a ball in play. If that isn't the very definition of luck, I don't know what is.

Unload...
QUOTE (WilliamTell @ May 20, 2010 -> 06:48 PM) McDowell, Fernandez, Alverez, Bere. Such a great young rotation that year. It would've been nice if those 4 were pillars of our rotation throughout the 90's. The amazing thing is that most of them got dumped pretty quickly, and not in a single case did they regret it.

Gordon Beckham: What To Do?
QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 20, 2010 -> 03:50 PM) Rios's struggles last year was not a mental issue. There is a noted difference in the swing. If Beckham's troubles are only mental then why is he spread stance being tried. Its not just mental. Its something else. Even Stoney is pointing out that they are attacking him differently and he is not adjusting to it. Its obvious to me he is trying to cover for the kid. He wants him to keep it simple and to not worry about his swing right now. There is a mental aspect to it.

Gamethread: White Sox(16-23) vs Angels (19-23) 7:10 PM
QUOTE (Dick Allen @ May 20, 2010 -> 06:48 PM) I don't understand this rotating DH. Shouldn't Rios be given a breather by DHing? He's one of the few the Sox have that is a threat at the plate at the current time. He played almost every game when he was in Toronto, I'm sure he's not tired. It doesn't have to be why he is getting the day off either. It could be because he hasn't had a good week.

Reasons we can catch the Twins
QUOTE (SoxAce @ May 20, 2010 -> 03:04 PM) He won't be great no, but it is still early Balta. Just 3 weeks ago I remember Pierre was sportin a -1.9 UZR in LF. Now it is up to +6.4. (alot of that you can see in games with some of the plays he makes, and this is comming from someone who hates Pierre) Pierre has made some really impressive plays in the last couple of weeks, that is for sure.
