ODAWG!! he'll be just fine over there, great play!

I loves me this big donkey 1-0 sox

I'm down..as you all can tell by the amount of posts Ive been making lately I no longer have a life (due to my cars engine blowing out and being unemployed ATM)...I literally watch sports all day and jump around on here now

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 22, 2012 -> 10:00 PM) 2.) I had a comment to you that the games I saw on mlb.com Zach sucked. But I backed off when several posters pointed out he's been good. Respect meter goes back up a notch, I was fully expecting you to continue to defend your thoughts and I'm glad you didnt.

QUOTE (sunofgold @ May 22, 2012 -> 09:21 PM) Who does he know on the White Sox? How does he know Kenny so well. Did KW follow him around one offseason when he was a free agent ? Sounds to me that Odawg is a talkative guy. Probably a mix of Thome and Guillen. Guess Twins organization and media cannot handle that. He's played with Alex in Toronto and Dunn in AZ, he's a likable guy so I'm sure he's made other friends as well....From what I read hes a big time outdoorsman and I know guys like Danks and Peavy among others are also so I can see why he wants to come here.

O-Dawg with a hit shoulda started him from the get go. QUOTE (fathom @ May 22, 2012 -> 09:19 PM) That error was on a fly ball hit 398 feet to dead center. The double by Davis then hit the top of the left field fence. An outs an out no matter how far it hit, if that ball was caught the Weiters granny doesnt happen and they just score 2 gift runs.

QUOTE (iamshack @ May 22, 2012 -> 09:00 PM) He got beat up in that extra inning game Santiago blew against the Orioles as well. By and large, he's been pretty solid. That Orioles game is the other one he was talking about just to clarify so you dont think it was 3 outings he got roughed up when it was just 2. heres what happened in that orioles game too Z Stewart relieved H Santiago. M Reynolds safe at third on error by center fielder A De Aza. C Davis doubled to deep left, M Reynolds scored. R Andino reached on infield single to third, C Davis to third. N Reimold singled to left, C Davis scored, R Andino to second. J Hardy reached on bunt single to first, R Andino to third, N Reimold to second. N Markakis grounded into fielder's choice to first, R Andino out at home, N Reimold to third, J Hardy to second. A Jones struck out swinging. M Wieters homered to right (361 feet), N Reimold, J Hardy and N Markakis scored. R Paulino grounded out to second. just some bad luck. If hector didnt blow the save it woulda never got to him anyway

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 22, 2012 -> 08:38 PM) Am I the only one that realized that this post was sarcasm? (Or am I stupid) QUOTE (iamshack @ May 22, 2012 -> 08:38 PM) I'm with you, buddy We got ourselves a few winners, the way it was typed should have showed that....like I told greg (to which he never replied after being so adamant in his case that he is garbage) outside of his game against the cubs hes given up just 3 earned runs in 16+ innings. Thats pretty damn good for the first guy out of the pen.

Zach Stewart is meat release him.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 22, 2012 -> 08:16 PM) I blame my dad for jinxing this pre-game by saying Floyd sucks. I blame myself for this one, I preached about how good this team can be and then proceeded to drop Floyd from my fantasy team yesterday.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/multimedi.../content.8.html BOOM, you've all been misguided.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 22, 2012 -> 03:51 PM) Adrian Gonzalez will start in RF today to try to solve the Red Sox's outfield woes, while getting Youkilis in the lineup (1B) and keeping Middlebrooks in the lineup (3B). Makes me feel better about accepting a Gonazlez, Ortiz, Cliff Lee, and Matt Joyce for my Miguel Carbrera and Cargo trade just yesterday in my money league. Now Poppy has to gain 1b eligibility and my lineup will be set.

This thread is unamerican.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 22, 2012 -> 01:41 PM) Why is that vintage? People have mocked my style of posting before. I really don't care about numbers much. I do wish we had a third baseman with more pop than Hudson/Morel. It is true that Hudson isn't the answer. He's just another KW favorite we finally picked up. Are there any still out there? Teahen worked really well. I think we should have just given Lilly a chance to play every day. Hudson is blah. I heard on the mlb network that Edgar Renteria was contacted by the Sox but with the Hudson signing thats not gonna happen. Hudson may not hit much but hes gonna hit better than the black hole Brent Morel and he's gonna bring a positive energy to this team, which if nothing else is a plus over anything they can put there.

QUOTE (Tex @ May 22, 2012 -> 01:32 PM) I decided to bookmark this thread and only continue reading after a few beers. I think it will make a great thread AWESOME. This thread is best served on ice and read in a Hulk Hogan voice.

I'll take it! I hope I entertained some people during yesterdays off day...that was the plan...and to make the POTY and this be a turning point for posters on soxtalk lol kidding

Never seen the movie but that sure does look like me from a few years ago http://sphotos.xx.fbcdn.net/hphotos-snc6/6...1_1358992_n.jpg I'm in the Green....This was 3 years ago, Ive since played a few years of rugby and am 60lbs smaller "Stephen Furst as Kent "Flounder" Dorfman: An overweight, clumsy legacy pledge, later a sensitivity trainer in Cleveland." So since you didnt previously know I was overweight why am I earning the nickname of this guy.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ May 22, 2012 -> 12:14 AM) I hereby nickname you......Flounder. Do explain

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ May 21, 2012 -> 11:43 PM) Lol in fact he is not, and he was once on a radio show and couldn't name his favorite Sox player when growing up.. then again I'm sure the radio and tv broadcasts in Kenya might have something to do with that. I know zilch about politics (I have a bs felony on my record so I cant even vote) so you're prob right...I just know what they say about him from time to time on sportscenter, like when he made his brackets, or invited the 85 Bears to the White House I remember the anchors saying he's a huge sports fan.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 21, 2012 -> 11:11 PM) I love the Sox. I've praised Dunn and Peavy and Paulie and AJ a lot and Flowers. I just don't like what I've seen the last couple seasons and change. It has jaded me a bit and angered me a lot. Sorry, I just had to go there after that Oz comment...Mattingley, Gonzalez, Matheny, and Johnson are all ahead of him ATM.

QUOTE (oldsox @ May 21, 2012 -> 10:58 PM) I wonder if he can think of the name of one Sox player yet. Has he been questioned on this before or something?? I keep hearing hes a huge sports fan, I got a feeling he can name them all

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 18, 2012 -> 11:26 PM) Serious question: Is Oz a candidate for manager of the year? Three over .500 and right there. So you barely ever say a good thing about the Sox and you believe Ozzie is a candidate for Coach of the year??? I'm now convinced youre one of Ozzies kids, Oney is that you?

How does one become a bodyguard??

QUOTE (kev211 @ May 21, 2012 -> 03:55 AM) Didn't watch. I'm assuming I should watch the Byran Punk match? Great match, not as good as a I thought it was gonna be though but then again I had HIGH expectations. Check it out, the 4 way was fantastic as well, one of the better 4 ways Ive seen and I watch a lot of porn.

QUOTE (Reddy @ May 21, 2012 -> 02:37 PM) so you're conceding that's possible? because, you know, it is. Of course it is, its also possible Brent Morel can show those September numbers again and Adam Dunn can go back to being the worst hitter in baseball. Anythings possible in the game of baseball. Until it happens I'm gonna stick with my opinion that hes a slow starter and he will be an impact middle of the order bat the rest of the way. With that if you add a middle of the lineup hitter to a .500 team that team is usually no longer a .500 team.
