For those that don't know, Jerry advanced him 2 years of salary - thus not really a "loan" - but again.. who the hell does Kenny think he is running his fat mouth about that s***. Ugh. Maybe Frank should just shut up, the guy has always stuck his foot in his mouth and still he never learns , my opinion the White Sox should have cut him loose during a road trip just like they did to Carlton Fisk who was/is ten times the ballplayer Frank will ever be, but no the White Sox let him hang through the playoffs & World Series even letting his sorry ass throw out a 1st pitch. Frank Thomas has never been grateful to the fans of the White Sox while all the fans did was stick by him all those years , refusing to play because he had a tantrum, never even trying to make himself a better first baseman because it was easy to just listen to his critics about his fielding and throwing abilities so he just settles for DH, and now of course Jerry reinsdorf and Ken Williams screw Frank. Come on Frank has always been about Frank and the best three things that happened to the White Sox last year were letting Magglio go, trading Carlos Lee and Frank Thomas getting hurt thats when the White Sox became a team and had one purpose to win a World Series I don't think Frank could ever care about that unless he was the star he never could be just a team player.

There were some pitching moments last year that will stand out in my mind forever, but for some reason the one that absolutely sticks out was June 29th. Brandon McCarthy started the game, and left with a 3-2 lead in the 7th. The game ended up being tied by a Chris Shelton triple and a sac fly off of Neal Cotts, and the next inning Cotts got into trouble and loaded the bases. Cliff Politte came in the game, and struck out Ivan Rodriguez, and induced Craig Monroe to hit into a 6-3 double play. I remember watching the game with a sick feeling in my stomach, and Politte just came in and started pumping gas all over the strikezone. Please share your favorite performance of a pitcher over the course of 2005, and I was thinking of having a "Favorite Pitching Moment of 2005" poll after a few days. Try and include the opponent and date if you can. If not, no biggie. I would have to say the night Mark Buehrle pitched against the Seattle Mariners I think he shut them out and only gave up three hits all of them to Ichiro , if not for Ichiro Mark has a no-hitter.
