  1. ah, it's September "what happened to us" time? 11-17 in a month chalked full of KC, CLE, MIN.....after weeks of success against top teams, who'd a figured this relatively easy month would have done us in....classic white sox oh, and yeah, the hitting definitely..... LOB was excruciating, and the decline of PK IMO was the difference maker, even a few clutch hits in the right games would have kept us in first and given pitching some room for error. love the guy but we lived by him in the 1st half and died by him in the second, unfortunate
  2. they lost 83.3% of their last 6 games, I'm not optimistic of making or winning in the playoffs, this would be the saddest entrance to post season in a long time., for either team
  3. this is a season determining game, up three with two weeks, or up one with two weeks. should be breaking any traditional rotation rules necessary. I'd consider a Randy Johnson/Curt Schilling on no rest game 7 2001 WS type strategy to get this one, it's that big IMO
  4. QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Sep 12, 2012 -> 09:56 PM) Their main runs have been when they fattened up on the Indians at midseason, the Twins and the Royals (until they were swept in KC). And winning 9/10 against the White Sox after starting out 3-4. That has allowed them to surge from 6 games under to 8 over, but it hasn't been from beating some of the really good teams the White Sox have handled like the Yankees, Angels or Rangers. but isn't that what's so infuriating? Every time we play the tigers i keep asking myself how in the hell are we staying ahead of these guys, they have much better pitching and offense? then we go and sweep NY in NY, and they get swept by KC?
  5. after winning gm1 in convincing fashion, the crazy optimist in me started thinking the worst we could do was lose 2/3 and exit up two games. should have known better, can already feel the tie for 1st by close of business tomorrow, regardless of how good Gavin looks tonight; our two hit games aren't going to get 'er done. up three with three to play could have put these guys in a giant hole after this series.....
  6. QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 24, 2012 -> 11:06 PM) I turned the Sox game off to watch Brother Rice football on the Web Hey I went to Rice, how did you watch it on the web?
  7. bosox must lead baseball history with runs scored in the 8th inning at home, been watching that for years, might as well fast forward this to that frame, take our lumps and move to DET to see if we can hold the 1.5gm lead
  8. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 7, 2012 -> 11:49 PM) I want Mark back. I miss him. I miss US. We were just so good together. Can't we give it another try?
  9. QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Jun 29, 2012 -> 09:49 PM) I would really love it if you guys could also add internet live stream links for those of us outside the US... did San Diego secede from the Union?
  10. QUOTE (Cali @ Jun 27, 2012 -> 03:07 PM) Also, good to finally win a laugher after the last month or so. Especially against an AWFUL Twins team. I mean honestly, they never had what you'd call "great" players in the early 00's division run, but the philosophy was what made them winners. I don't think the philosophy has changed, and the players are just as mediocre so what's the difference? Target Field? Yes, I predicted two years ago the grass field would be the end of the "slap bouncer hit through hole" winning method that frustrated me for soooo long. Now they can't tailor a team around their park....the way BOS loads up on lefties for their short RF fence
  11. QUOTE (Reddy @ Jun 13, 2012 -> 09:05 AM) are you insane? we're 7 GAMES OVER .500 who the f*** saw that coming this year. i'm sick of your attitude kid. haha nevermind, we are ahead of schedule being in 3rd before the ASB
  12. Makes the lad giveaway games that much more painful. Losing those means you simply cannot afford to come home and lose to the worst team in the bigs
  13. QUOTE (Jake @ Jun 17, 2012 -> 03:25 PM) Being thrown into the fire like this may not be ideal, but hopefully he capitalizes. The team he's facing is something like a good AAA team one too many "A"s
  14. QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jun 13, 2012 -> 06:13 PM) That's cause the sun never sets in Southern California true dat when the sox play the angels and dodgers, TV keeps us out of all that sunshine....
  15. QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jun 12, 2012 -> 06:41 PM) I don't think about it. Sit back and enjoy the baseball. This has been a surprising season and you might as well enjoy it while you can. Hopefully it lasts all the way through October. Lets go White Sox!!! If I wanted a reasonable response I would have asked for one. Let's stick with the paranoid soxfan program, mmmkayyy?
