I hate the Red Sox and Yankees as well as the Twins and Tigers so I really hope the Angels play the Cardinals in the WS.

After seeing Peavy pitch for the Sox, he is exactly what they need. The White Sox rotation can be filthy next year. Almost as good as the Braves if Hudson is 100%.

I hope nobody gets caught watching How I Met You Mother.

Tommy John, Goose Gossage, who was the cat that was traded for Roy Sievers, it never ends with this s***ty organization.

Just to chime in that the worst performance Saturday outside of Ron Zook was Ozzie Guillen. I believe the whole thing was Guillen deflecting his piss poor managing of the 7th inning onto someone/something else. I believe it was Beckham (educated guess) and the fact that he actually may know people on that team that are following him makes Guillen's point even more pointless.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 25, 2009 -> 02:50 PM) Even with the destruction and non-replacement of nearly every housing project in the city? Are you advocating housing projects?

I want to lose every game until the first day of spring training and get a nice draft pick.

Despite all of the negative things Daley has been tied to in general he has been great for the city as a whole. He is one of the most poewerful people in government if you do not think that is good for the city, I do not know what to tell you. As for the Olympics I am still not sure why people do not want them other than, they just don't want them.

QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Sep 24, 2009 -> 01:29 PM) Paul Konerko doesn't bunt, nor should he. Asking for a bunt from either Paulie, Thome, or even Dye needs to be considered a fireable offense. Where did I say anything about bunting. The small ball that I am talking about is looking for good pitches to drive, going the other way and cutting down your swing in RBI situations.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Sep 24, 2009 -> 12:00 PM) saw this on ESPN Rumor Central and it made me laugh. But then again...they wouldn't be the Islanders anymore, now would they? Isn't Manhattan an island?

Just wanted to point out that the interest on Ricketts loan for the cubs could be about $35M a year which will be addded to the expenses of the team. He better hope the park holds up.

I think Konerko with a small ball team would be better next year, same with AJ. They seem to be better hitters that can be more productive if they are just trying ot hit the ball especially with runners on. Quentin was this way last year, not so much this year. Thome and Dye are not good for this type of ball.

The fact that Juliet may be dead and Kate is still messing things up makes me less interested......still very interested but a little less.

f*** it, I am going to the game

He will be the next Ellis Burks, there I said it.

Realistically Jenks and Flowers for Crawford, Sonnenstine and Navarro. Long term it hurts the catcher position but you get three years of AJ if you give him an extension and Navarro as a back-up. or you move Jenks for the parts Tampa wants. Crawford doesn't need to play center for the Sox.

I give all of the pitchers on this team a pass....why you ask......every single inning of just about every game is stressful. There is a chance that they will pitch and need to be ready every night. I know they are professionals and this is their job but it is the reasoning I give for their performance. The hitting on this team is beyond bad. There are certain players having nice years but over all they are terrible. When does the light shine on Guillen?????? This team was ahead of the Twins at the end of the day on September 12th. That was a week ago Saturday. I truly believe this team gave up and Guillen did nothing about it. The thing I always gave him credit for was getting the most out of his teams this year I do not think he could get less out of it. Just about everyone gave up on this team after the road trip from hell and in all actuality they were still right in it. Somehow the Twins did not give up. I am not as certain as I used to be that 2010 is going to be all that great. This division is possibly one of the worst in recent memory.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 03:28 PM) The problem is that the first two you mentioned there wont be used at all for the Olympics. Baseball and Softball are out of the Olympics for the near future. I think the actual buildout and renovations proposed now and what actually takes place before 2016 will be vastly different. After there are guarantees on the table I think other private money will become available.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 18, 2009 -> 02:50 PM) Haha , someone called that in the gamethread yesterday. Major kudos. And your right Sonix.. in fact, it pisses me off that T-Flow still isn't starting. Keep Kotsay in the lineup too. That was me. He has more gumption than Dye and Rios right now. I'd also like to see Kotsay as well as he seems to have good at-bats. I have no problem with this line-up at all.

People need to realize that the Bears add nothing to Solider Field and the Park District. If the Bears left Solider Field, the Park District would make more money on Soldier Field. The Park District could give two s***s about the Bears and Walter Payton and anything they want, neither organization will do anything to benefit the other. I personally think the Olympics could transform many of the Chicago sports venues, including the Cell, Wrigley and Soldier Field. The best stadium in Chicago is Toyota Park.

If both Jenks and Dye are moved/let go this offseason who do you think will be remembered most fondly?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 09:38 PM) fuk you johjima, take your base you piece of shat Baseball IQ, something the White Sox have none of. Well Linebrink will get the loss after the Sox were held scoreless for the last 10 innings.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 09:32 PM) One has to think we're about to check it in tonight. At some point, there's the "give up" factor. The offense can't score tonight since Bobby f***ed up. Sadly for an organization that wants to tell everyone that they are still in, they do not play like it.

Well Linebrink can pretty much end the season for the Sox....pretty appropriate I guess.
