QUOTE(Texsox @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 09:52 AM) We should care about the on base percentage. The slugging is secondary. Which is why the stats geeks need to refine the OPS to reflect position in the order. It may be 75-25 for the lead off guy and 35-65 for the cleanup hitter. I know. I care about the "O" about 90% and the "S" about 10% for my leadoff man.

They'll never get it. :headshake Why would I care about OPS and slugging from my leadoff man?

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 06:04 AM) Yeah, that was in the special Tribune Sunday too. Also, it was kind of funny seeing Citgo, I think congratulate Ozzie. Since they get a lot of their gas from Venezuela. I believe Citgo is owned by the Venezuelan government.

QUOTE(bighurt2719 @ Nov 1, 2005 -> 07:20 AM) some of it is interesting, but some of it is such a stretch it kind of makes you ask "what the hell?" Like he thing about Houston being by Route 45- it's not weird or wild, it's just a coincidence. It's just fun. Say, "huh" and carry on.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 09:55 AM) The black and white confetti is supposedly shredded up copies of the Sun Times. Marriotti's columns?

Eight Men Out was on last night.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 09:16 AM) I just saw a classy sign in the crowd. It read, "John Rooney, thanks for the memories. YOU are a White Sox Winner!" Wow. Really cool.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 09:00 AM) Da Mayor already has "Official Sox Championship Confetti" for sale on eBay Hmmmm...

Street cleaners are already lined up on Financial Place.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 08:40 AM) To mow the frickin' grass? It's a Union thing.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Oct 28, 2005 -> 08:36 AM) I just came in on the Green Line. As I was pulling into Clark and Lake, I took a gander north to Wacker/LaSalle....pretty much completely packed as of 9:24. By noon, it'll be hopeless. My advice is to catch the parade further south. I'm not sure you'll be able to see much of the rally. Why didn't they do this at Grant Park? From what I understand there wasn't enough time to get Grant Park ready.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 11:37 PM) I saw Kurt Warner kiss his children I saw Kurt Warner kiss a man! Oh wait, maybe that was his wife.

QUOTE(Timmy179 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 01:22 PM) Any Advice on how to get to lasalle from the End of the Metra Electric line would be GREATLY appreciated. Looking to head up for the parade!!! From the Randolph station head west. You'll run into LaSalle.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 10:47 AM) Tomorrow during lunch time, down LaSalle Street. TICKER TAPE. Time?

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 08:03 AM) Yeah, might just do that actually. Your wife will be at work. She doesn't have to know you kept the kid out of school!

QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 07:46 AM) Monday???? s***. On Halloween? Goddamnit. My wife works and I have to take my kid to and pick her up from school. What the f***. Take your kid to the rally! Duh!

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Oct 27, 2005 -> 07:49 AM) Like I said. I'm horrible at creating polls. Thanks for pointing that out. Please Mods, fix that if you can. Don't sweat it. Good poll question, though. But, like you said, there's too many.

The AJ play was in game 2.

If you got choked up and was close to crying - that counts. I did. My wife and my buddy's wife were teasing me. I didn't care. I've seen my favorite football team win back to back Super Bowls (Broncos), I've seen the Bulls win championships, I've seen IU win a National title. Nothing compares to this and how I feel about it, nothing!

QUOTE(rudylaw @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 11:27 AM) It is not over yet buddy. I still have reservation about getting too excited, even being up 3-0. I will not even think about a world series until we have won the 4th game. I am still a nervous reck and I wish that I could enjoy this a little more. Drink more!

QUOTE(HineyBird @ Oct 26, 2005 -> 10:32 AM) going to budy and pal's in crown point IN. Setting at the same table that I've sat at for both sox playoff clinchers and last nights game You guys get rowdy over there!
