Chapter 151: the future (6:10pm, CSN)
Nice to see Morel find power, but I've got to believe that if there was any semblance of meaning left in the games the Sox play (there hasn't been for quite some time now) his power would still be a myth. That first Detroit sweep took a lot of pressure off this team.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Sep 16, 2011 -> 11:41 AM) Classy move by Guillen: @CST_soxvan Daryl Van Schouwen Guillen on report that Reinsdorf assured Williams he will return as GM: He deserves it. He's doing a good job. Yeah I think he wanted to drive that point in with the lineups he was putting out.

2011 Video Game Catch-All Thread
QUOTE (DBAHO @ Sep 14, 2011 -> 05:01 AM) Just finished Deus Ex Human Revolution. The ending was terrible I thought. Boss Battles were also pretty bad, but the rest of the game was pretty good. Damn, I just got to the first boss the other day. Tried the fight once and lasted all of like a minute. I won't be too upset about a bad ending if the majority of the game plays like it has up until this point (sans the boss). Have you played the first one?

I thought the limo scene was a little bit over the top. It was hilarious when Frank offered her the egg though. Funniest part for me was Dennis and Dee when the hooker was laying on the floor smoking crack.

Elimin.....ation
I was listening to the "Grobstein takes calls from the stupid and blackout drunk show" on 670 and thought I heard him say they weren't eliminated from Wild Card yet- just the Division. I know that was the plan all along. The Sox just feel bad for the people that live in Detroit because they have to live in Detroit, so they gave them something to be temporarily happy about. The laws of karma dictate that Sox will meet Detroit in the ALCS and sweep them even with Verlander going in Games 1 and 4.

Don't tease me...
If the story about Kenny blowing up at him are true, I can't imagine him wanting to come back to the Sox (provided Kenny remains GM). I assume that is what he means by using the early part of the offseason to decide- to see if Williams remains. I've left a job where I couldn't stand the environment only to take the same position for less money at a different company. I was much happier at the new place, and I'd do it again 100% of the time in a heartbeat.

9/9 Indians (Gomez) at White Sox (Buehrle)
QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 9, 2011 -> 07:14 PM) I'm watching this while peeking in at Phils and Brewers. The only way to describe the Phils is invincible. I'm heading up to Milwaukee tomorrow for this. Worried about getting merked by Brewer fans.

Congratulations on #2000, Pierre
QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 9, 2011 -> 09:22 AM) You can tell how much his teammates like him by their reaction last night Juan was left on base that inning, so he just went straight to his spot in LF. As he was getting there a bunch of guys came out of the dugout to shake his hand and congratulate him in addition to those heading out to their respective positions on the field. I like the guy and feel bad for him because he's been shat on from both sides of town, yet remains a professional and works hard to do his job. He's probably not back with the Sox next year, but I wish him well wherever he does end up.
