Friend of Nordhagen

QUOTE (Hanky Panky @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:34 PM) God that pissed me off. Where does he think he's going, for chrissakes? If it's a wild pitch, he's fast enough to score. If it's in the air, he's gotta go back to tag. Pods, you're a numbskull.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:30 PM) Don't ask him for an autograph if he does.

Idiotic.

Hannahan has power. Have to be careful here.

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:19 PM) What is funny about that easy pop-up to Rios. Not sure Dye gets there that easy. Dye stumbles into the foul pole.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:16 PM) When the going gets tough, pull the ball! I've never seen a shift on a guy who hits .220, but you could make a good case of playing 3 infielders on the left side against Nix.

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:13 PM) Post of the f***ing YEAR. Thank you, sir. Looks good in the sig.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:15 PM) Yeah, Nix keep hitting it off your foot. I admire that kind of commitment to the team.

QUOTE (bobryansson @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:12 PM) Does Mark get a vote? Two, I'd reckon.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:09 PM) Ok King Felix is gone sox hitters. Let's not Greg Walker this inning. GREG WALKER: (v.) To appear befuddled against pedestrian pitchers, particularly those making their initial appearances in major league baseball. Syn.: Dead-pull approach.

QUOTE (Capn12 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:07 PM) Mark Buehrle has balls of stone. Its just that Alexei Ramirez has hands of stone. Right. From Lexei's hands to Mark's balls.

Ah, look who else is blowing opportunities . . .

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:04 PM) Thanks Alexei for gracing us with your glove of stone. Another LOL

QUOTE (GordoTheGreat @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:04 PM) Alexei being Alexei "Kismet"

QUOTE (GordoTheGreat @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 11:01 PM) This is going to nip us in the butt, either way. Wait. Will it nip us in the butt, or will we nip it in the bud?

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:59 PM) I think with everyone getting caught up in the acquisition of Alex Rios is almost everyone forgot about the fact that he sucks. LOL

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:58 PM) PM me your address, I'll send you a blow up doll. C'mon, Swish, settle down.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:56 PM) Let's be friends, friend. I'm all sorts of pissed off at this team tonight. I'm with you, my man.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:55 PM) Do Hawk and Stoney even bother to check where the defenders are positioned? Beckham and Thome's were going right to the infielder regardless of the hop. Hawk's just excited to repeatedly use the word "Kismet." It's very exciting, sort of like the '67 pennant race.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:54 PM) My god, he got a HIT. You've got to be kidding me. He got on base, he advance the runner. HE GOT A HIT. Okay. Sounds good.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:50 PM) Nix got a hit. Why do you have a problem with him? Because he hit a slow grounder that just as easily could've been at the shortstop, leaving Kotsay stuck at 2nd. His job was to hit to the RIGHT side. Happy that he caught a break, but that's all it was.

QUOTE (CWSOX45 @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:43 PM) Usually I'm the first to defend these guys, but there is no excuse for that. You HAVE to get that run in with less than 2 outs. Ugh. Well, the lack of execution started with Nix hitting a ball to short and not the the right side.

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:41 PM) Ugh, shut up Hawk, it was a routine double play. Pods really blew that inning. Now Hawk'll have 'em cue the damn thing a hundred times, seeing it hit the mound and stuff. Ugh.

QUOTE (BFirebird @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:35 PM) wow that ball died. Big park, lots of humidity -- but Kotsay's hit a few so far that sorta died in the outfield, even at the Cell. Anyway, the guy has a really nice approach up there.

QUOTE (bobryansson @ Aug 12, 2009 -> 10:31 PM) LOL... again. Good times.
