QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ May 27, 2006 -> 11:25 PM) Garland was probably our best go to guy when we needed a stopper last year, it'd be nice for him to be that guy again right here. Except for that Jose Contreras guy.

Keep Anderson aboard. And stop playing Mack so much at Center. He's cost us two games this week with his weak D.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 27, 2006 -> 10:25 PM) Iowa should be Chernobyl'd so nobody can live there for several centuries. Evacuate Heads and the others on here from there first, then do it. That state is really just a giant cesspool of corn, hogs, tornadoes, and Cubs fans for the most part. What a sophisticated comment. Nuke the bastards -- they're all hicks and cornstalks! :rolly

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ May 27, 2006 -> 10:09 PM) The Sox weren't going to keep it up last season either...and then they like DID go at that pace all season. They did not play at this current Tigers pace all season. They played parts of it well and slumped toward the end. Cleveland was poor at the start. Detroit will eventually slump like we did. But we're not starting slow like Cleveland, and we should be able to retain the Divison by the end.

Ah, yes, I called for this in the Game Thread. I said that the Sox need a "pep talk" like the one he gave them when they were sucking in the Spring.

It's almost as if Guillen hasn't seen the Mackowiak misreads that've cost us games -- two by my count.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:44 PM) 20-3 the last two years. Here to prevent a sweep. I'm sure we can attribute their victories to you.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:49 PM) Like I said in the game thread, this has been happening since last year. Count got f***ed over a lot last year. I guess I'll use this thread to reiterate the point about Uribe since it will only piss people off to start a new one. Juan Uribe is absolute horses***. He NEEDS to be benched for about a week because he's such a f***ing idiot. He sucks, and at least BA can get a walk. He needs to know that he isn't SS-for-life. And if you're going to say something about him having 2 hits today, remember that the one hit came because Mack saved his ass by getting to 2nd in time to break up the force out. Yeah, and he was half-assing his run to first on one of his outs. He could've been safe had he run like someone other than Konerko.

QUOTE(greg775 @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:49 PM) He definitely got hosed over again. Hope the team goes out and gets hammered tonight and forgets this sorry effort. They need another pep talk like the one Ozzie gave them when they were sucking in the Spring. And it's a shame that Contreras is pitching for Wins and Cy Youngs but getting hosed by shoddy defense and poor offense.

QUOTE(greg775 @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:42 PM) Horrible game. You are gonna win 60 a year and lose 60 a year; it's what you do in the others that matter. This was one of the 60 losses. It wasn't our day. Poor Jose. Nah, this had the makings of a victory. Contreras did his part, and the one run that scored off of him shouldn't have. This game blew, however.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:38 PM) I remember that extra inning game against Seattle that we won. So do I. This has the atmosphere of the one we lost, however, and not of the one we won.

This reminds me of that Extra Innings game against Seattle that we lost.

He is. Why the f*** is Nelson in for a Lefty?

QUOTE(Sox It To Em @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:32 PM) 1st and 3rd. If it wasn't for Uribe we'd have the lead. Or for Mack.

Just a single, Jim. Bah, we'd have never been in this situation had Mackowiak caught that ball early on.

What's Jose's ERA now?

QUOTE(Friend of Nordhagen @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:24 PM) If you think about it, it's really more offensive to Judy. She was much more aggressive than Jon. Ha!

Come on Uribe

Oh man, that was beautiful.

QUOTE(longshot7 @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:07 PM) Hey guys, cut it out with the Judy s***. It's sexist and offensive. Show some respect for Jon. I don't much care for the moniker myself, but it's a reference to Judy Garland more than a slap at women.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ May 27, 2006 -> 06:02 PM) I'm not as high on Coop as most people. Why can't he fix Judy and Cliff? He can't very well fix EVERYONE.

I'd like to take this opportunity to comment about Cooper. In Seattle, Thornton s***s himself with this situation. In Chicago, he makes things work.

This umpire is a cock sucker.

Uribe!

What is this bulls***? Put in f***ing Cintron!
