Hawk signs extension
I always like Hawk, he adds some fun to the game. So I guess it's 4 more years of "You can put it on the board, YES!!" Hopefully we can give him another world championship.

Starting Lineup
I would probably go with 1. Cabrera ss 2. Swisher cf 3. Thome dh 4. PK 1b 5. Dye rf 6. Fields/Crede 3B 7. AJP c 8. Quentin lf 9. Richar 2b Although I would have a tough time deciding on either Fields or Crede at 3B.

Least favorite Sox players
David Wells, he was nothing but trouble.

Rich Gossage: A Hall of Famer
I am so happy for him. I can still see him at old Payne Park in Sarasota, Florida during spring training of 1976. Congrat's Goose!!

White Sox Acquire Nick Swisher from Athletics
I like the sounds of this trade. Looks like KW got things in order with this one.
-
KW Employment Poll
Right now I think he is doing so so. One more year like we just went through then he should be run out of town.
-
Confirmed interest in Prior
I'd possible take a chance on a one year deal with Prior, because of his injuries.
-
How the heck did we ever get to this point?
I'm not ready to give up on Sweeney yet he's still young. We can't forget that when we traded Rowand we got Jim Thome and that gave us some extra power. Pitching is what got us to this point. IMO.

The Astros are considering dealing Chris Burke to the White Sox
I'll believe this deal when I see it.
-
Crede will be dealt
Who would we get for Crede since he has a bad back?
-
Jon Garland traded for Orlando Cabrera
Why in the world would KW trade Garland and keep Contreras I will never know. Thanks for the 2005 World Series champion, Jon. We'll miss you.

Joey Cora up for PIT Manager position
I hope he gets the Pirates job anything to get rid of him. I didn't like him a player and don't care for him as a coach.

Who Ya Rooting For?
QUOTE(knightni @ Oct 22, 2007 -> 11:44 AM) The White Sox. (This is Pale Hose Talk, right?) My thoughts exactly. I'm looking toward to the 2008 White Sox.

D-Backs Cubs Series thread
QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 4, 2007 -> 10:52 AM) Hahaha. Cubs fans are accusing Webb of having grease on his hat. No matter that he was wiping his sweat on the brim of his cap, he OBVIOUSLY was cheating. Also they are accusing the Dbacks ground crew of softening up the dirt in front of the plate to help his ground balls. Cub fans never cease to amaze me. They always find a way to come up with an excuse for losing. The Chicago Cubs, the symbol of baseball ineptness for 100 years!!

Yanks vs. Indians
I hope Cleveland wins the series. I hate the Yankees.

D-Backs Cubs Series thread
Cubs lose, Cubs lose game 1!!! Let's see.. in the 1945 World Series Cub fans blamed the loss on the Curse of the billy goat, in 1969 when they lost the division title to the Mets, I believe a black cat ran on the field if I'm not mistaken. In the 2003 NLDS loss to Florida they blamed Bartman. Who will get the blame this year if they lose it, Bartman's brother. I hope the D-Back sweep the Flubs

Frank Thomas
QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Oct 3, 2007 -> 05:14 PM) Yeah. After all these years, Hawk Harrelson still hasn't learned. I thing I like about Hawk is his style of being a homer announcer. He adds fun the game. Given time I think Big Hurt would be a good announcer.

White Sox minor league review
There is some good info in there. It has me optimistic for next season. Thanks for posting.
-
Am I missing something???
We are going to need help in the bullpen next season for sure also in starting pitching. I need to see what changes are made before first.
-
Am I missing something???
I don't mean to be negative toward the Sox but I don't have much hope either for next season unless some major changes are made.
-
IT'S OVER
Thank goodness this season is over. This whole season was a nightmare. Here's better for a better 2008.

Bobby Freakin Jenks
As much as I would like to see Bobby win the Cy Young, I just don't see a closer winning it.
-
#500 as a walk off, is this a first??
I am really happy for Thome that he got #500 and a game winner at that. One of the few highlights in a disappointing season.
-
I'm giving KW one more year..
I suppose we should give KW one more year, one more year like this one then he should be run out of town.

Ozzie Extension
I can't blame Ozzie for this lousy season. It's not his fault that KW made some stupid trades.
