Danksy getting lucky so far on some timely DPs. Lets hope he can get things upder control a bit better.

Man, Dye OWNS this kid!! 5-12, 3 HRs

I love me some Jim Thome.

Nice play Pauly

Swisher with a hit, whats new.

Its a true sham that they call themselves "The Smashing Pumpkins" when D'arcy and Iha really made that band for me...not that I was a big fan or anything either way.

/em Points to the now created Video Game thread!! And hey!! Wii is fun stuff for some mindless entertainment. New Mario has some great ideas in it. But when I want to play a real game, I still go back to teh good ole PS2. Guitar Hero 1 and 2 forever!

Its got absolutely NOTHING to do with 'swaying opinions' as you say. Having respect for what a new Sox player doing, and maybe even being a fan of said accomplishments is one thing. Having every single routine catch, swing of the bat, step he takes on the basepaths, ALL be revered as the second coming of Christ in baseball is a wee bit excessive. Its unescapable. Maybe alot of us are sick of being force-fed every minute acclaim of an average 30-something free agent signee, who is really not all that awe-inspiring in the grand scheme of baseball?

Maybe alot of us are all a bit tired of the act of Hawk and DJs endless knob slobbering over an average CFer's every AB, putout, slide, baserunning, bowel movement?? He has had some success, I don't think you see any of us lamenting that. "God damn it!! I hate when Erstad does something that helps us win!! Stupid bastard, I hate him!!" Maybe if we were all saying that, it would be a different story. We're ALL happy with the things he is doing to help this team, even if we are stuck with him at leadoff instead of a more natural #2 spot. Perhaps we're all just a bit tired of having Sir Grinderist of the Center Fielders shoved down our throat incessantly by anyone associated with this White Sox organization? Could that be it? Nah, its because we all hate him.

Seems just when I think they can't find anything more irritating to have to put up with(HELLO Pac-Man!!), they drop this turd of a gem that we're forced to watch after changing games.

MMac better get his s*** together. We already have a collection of shaky guys out in the pen, with supposedly a few dependables(MMac, Thornton, FlapjackBobby). If MMac decides to suck for a little while, we're gonna be hurting for an alternate setup man.

I fail to see the point of bumping a month old thread after the mighty Darin grindErstad has a 3 single night!!! I guess we can expect this thread to be found and bumped once a month now for similar reasons.

Haha, wonder if Luis Terrero ever thought he would be hitting cleanup for teh Chicago White Sox!

Its a good thing that AJ is hitting, he just can't throw for s*** anymore.

Heads, I think its time for a new title for you, Mr. Partially Hiatus'd Admin

Nice one Pablo!

Haha....what a couple of clutch guys in Mack and Cintron!!

OOhhh.. Don't suck, Mack. Takes a special talent to strikeout in that situation. With bases loaded, no one out.. Could we have a worse duo up than Mack then Cintron?

MLB.tv just take a commercial mid inning? what the f***

Nice shot Dye, lets get some runs here

Hmmmm....I hope not dealt, but calling him up isn't exactly providing us with a huge addition, long loopy swings we have plenty of already.

Wow, that was well played there, Mack.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 21, 2007 -> 06:31 PM) This should go without saying, but I'd appreciate it if no one made mention of things happening on season finales of TV shows tonight during the game. I'm sure many of us are taping certain shows, and let's hope some dumbass doesn't talk about what happened at the end of the show like what happened last year. Could be worse fath, at least your show is still on TV. The ONLY primetime network show I've watched in years(Jericho) got cancelled wrongly after one season.

Most of SoxTalk will look back to the winter of '06 and wonder "Oh, what might we have gotten for Crede had we not been afraid to move him at his highest value..."

What the numbers don't mention is that its really hard these days to get a proper sample size, seeing as Prancer can hurt himself just running around before a game. Hard to score runs when your groin is made of porcelain.
