QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 14, 2009 -> 10:19 PM) on the plus side...maybe this is the last time we'll ever see contreras pitch Seems pretty clear that he's good for 3 innings. Given that, maybe we should think seriously about making him the long-man, particularly after September 1. If memory serves, he was actually pretty good out of the pen after he imploded in 2007.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 14, 2009 -> 01:44 PM) I made that up. Was trying to come up with the most depressing song I could think of. Whenever I heard the M*A*S*H theme song I felt like jumping out of my window. I never watched the show growing up because of that song. I haven't looked it up again, but I think that the words to that song were written by Robert Altman's 13 year old son. (Altman was the director.)

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 14, 2009 -> 01:21 PM) They also play "Suicide is Painless" for every home batters' at bat. This made me laugh.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 01:05 AM) Thats a pretty sweet teaser to give those having just watched this game A CSN recap of the game we just watched! Awesome!!!! Programming genius!

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 01:03 AM) Nice hanging pitch. I can't stand Tony Pena and his hanging sliders! Just remember, Ozzie decided to pitch him over Dotel. Yeah, I'm kinda not feeling Tony Pena right now.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:48 AM) Yea a very off night for Slayer. Looks like a little book is being developed on our guy -- fastballs way up.

QUOTE (son of a rude @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:48 AM) double penetration is better Hey, don't sleep on the Dirty Sanchez.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:43 AM) Is this a haiku of some kind? Game without pictures Sadness of a great nation Bartolo eat game

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:38 AM) pods picked off the on deck circle... I swear to you I was about to say this.

QUOTE (knightni @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:37 AM) Colon and Lillibridge recreating the Dish that ran away with the spoon. Unbelievable stuff.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:35 AM) Maybe Linebrink isnt injured, he just popped into place whatever went wrong w/ him after 2005 we're about to have a great pitcher in linebrink now! I'm officially excited about NewLinebrink.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:34 AM) I bet Ozzie is off painting a naked portrait of Wise in the clubhouse.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:33 AM) that was one of the worst pitches i have ever seen Neither Hawk nor A.J. nor Linebrink could actually believe it was not hit 12 miles.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:30 AM) Dye and Konerko are off sponsoring a search party to find Bartolo Colon. Flashlights and potato chips.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:27 AM) Honestly, how pissed off do you think Dye and Konerko are on the bench? Raises an interesting philosophical question: can you be pissed off on the bench when you're sleeping in the clubhouse?

The fans chant Liney-O, Liney-O!

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:22 AM) I was eating grapes 3 hours ago and now i'm eating trail mix. This game really is going to kill me. Call when you start on the pork rinds.

QUOTE (GordoTheGreat @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:20 AM) Another nice play. Kudos to Jack. These wishes will be very meaningful for the Hannahan family.

LOL at AJ running 1/2 to the mound to try to get in the way of the throw. That was classic.

QUOTE (Markbilliards @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:19 AM) Linebrink might be ok if he doesn't have to deal with any guys with bats ..........

I was just thinking I had to go to bed soon and kinda wondering when it would all end. Having now seen Scott Linebrink warming up, things are coming into focus.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:09 AM) Its pavlovs dog concept for Colon, he thinks its the dinner bell Colon thinks a cell phone ringing is the dinner bell.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Aug 13, 2009 -> 12:07 AM) Who's hitting the cow bell? Pods. Trying to contribute.

Quite a few meatballs so far.

QUOTE (joeynach @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:39 PM) I can now remember Pods getting picked off of 1st, 2nd, and 3rd base in the last month. Thats freaking sad. And if anyone could get picked off of home, it's Pods.
