step back... breathe.... its 2 games guys....give the offense time to gel...i have no worries right now. If you want to worry about anything, worry about the arms of Contreras and El Duque...

more importantly here...my record when starting Gameday threads is now 2-0!! Let the Harris thing go guys, we won...thats what matters...now lets watch Minny lose 2 out of 3 to Seattle hopefully!

how is Rowand gonna score from 2nd on a caught ball in right field? I'm boggled...

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 6, 2005 -> 05:01 PM) He did do s*** other than get lucky... Um, he did his job..bunt, move runners on..getting on base was just a bonus..

tbh, I must say Millwood has never really impressed me much, and thats when he was an NL only pitcher...I don't see him having an ERA under 4.50-5.00 this year in the AL.

Oh I dont think Koch was a user at all...I just think moreso that 10 years of throwing 97+ fastballs (counting college), and pitching so many innings over the years, his arm just didn't have it anymore. I didn't think it would be such a drastic change in such a short time, but I also tend to try and forget about the Koch days here in Chicago... DAMN you, quit trying to remind me about him

I don't think most of us as fans actually sit and think of the aggregate sum of things until we actually see them in print or text. I just didnt realize we ONLY scored 2 runs or less in 45 of our games YAS

no no no...I'm not saying MLB made the story up at all.. I'm saying they knew about the positive test 4 WEEKS ago, yet they waited until Opening Day to announce it. Thats my only beef with it. And I still don't think Sanchez is an actual roid user myself...

Was just about to add that Jabroni....expect almost the exact same I would think.

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 07:16 PM) When I see that picture it makes me sad, I don't get the chance to say a certain little saying anymore. Goes a little something like this.... STOP! Billy Time!!! That was MY line!! Too bad Billy let me, and the rest of the Sox nation down...but I always enjoyed throwing that line out there.

IMO Garcia is a guy that needs run support more than Buehrle...I always thought of Garcia as the guy who gives you 7 IP, 2 ER, and some key K's. I think the offense will be there today though, just a feeling.

QUOTE(TLAK @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 09:14 PM) For the record, in 04 the Sox were Shut out 8 times. 0-13 when scoring 1 run 1-23 when scoring 2 runs this adds up to 1-44 in low scoring games. Wow...thats an alarming stat...Luckily we aren't the same "2 runners on base = 3 run homer time!!" team that we have tried to be in the past.

American hipocracy at its finest hehe... Some folks would take an idea such as making loafers wear pink jerseys to shun them, and try to get them to play better.....and twist it around to being a derogatory thing towards Breast Cancer survivors.. Jesus Christ, what is this country coming to...

no no Goldy, that wasnt a shot at you... that was me sitting here shaking my head at my fellow Americans behavior over the silliest things... "Wheres my GD cell phone at???" :headshake

Personally, I'm back on the mlb.tv plan. I've cursed those bastards out the last 2 years for continuing to charge me for "Highlights Packages" 2 months after the season ends, and here I am right back using it. sigh.....its hard being a White Sox fan in South Carolina sometimes...

Maggs lost me at "Scott Boras" JosE6, well I won't deny that IMO Jose gave his all while in teh Sox uniform, its just that his hitting from the right side of the plate was HORRID, and more of a liability than an asset. CLee, hmm I don't know what I think. It seemed at times that CLee did what was needed of him, but maybe that was only cause it coincided with making him look good...I really dunno.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 6, 2005 -> 03:00 AM) I really believe him too. Honestly I do too....MLB, what a sham job there...they knew the results of that test up to 4 weeks ago, and waited until Opening Day to announce it, in an attempt to show how their new policy was "Stern and just!" :rolly

Well, despite the efforts of some to merge my Opening Day Gameday Thread with that banned fellas one, still won the game!! Will post Lineups when I see em, but lets hope we get to see Freddy give us 6-7 IP and a quality start, with good velocity

hmm, not sure how to respond to this story... ok, here goes my effort... If you let someone into your house named "Fat Daddy", you shouldnt really expect much normalcy in the visit.

QUOTE(joemg311 @ Apr 5, 2005 -> 01:29 AM) don't dis wheels konerko You know as soon as Konerko saw the dribbler hit in the infield as he took off for home, he was thinking "Aw f***, I'm about to look silly on this one"

I don't see the big deal. I would think that as fellow Americans you would actually WANT to know that the current administration isnt as "Holier than thou" as some seem to want to believe. Hell, none of the past administrations are. Does that mean that if we, as citizens, turn a deaf ear to the problems, pretend they don't exist, that they will go away? Thats a very naive way to view the situation IMO. KWF, I appreciate the articles myself, even if we had disagreements on things in the past (Koch, I was wrong!)

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Apr 4, 2005 -> 11:37 PM) Where did you find it? I love her.... ygm Soxy!

Is it bad that i do the Paul Konerko "Shoulder Death Slouch" everytime I see Joe Crede at the plate with RISP?

QUOTE(KipWellsFan @ Apr 4, 2005 -> 08:13 PM) Welcome from the great white north. Good day, eh? Now get me a Back Bacon sandwich, hoser! Welcome Gldfinger5

hey, good one RR
