Manny Ramirez
QUOTE(YASNY @ Oct 8, 2005 -> 02:17 AM) Who's joking? Manny and Pods would be one of the worst defensive outfields to ever play the game at any level. Think cub outfield when sosa was moved to center.

PLEASE STOP b****ING ABOUT BERMAN. THIS IS FASTER THAN MLB.COM AND IS THE QUICKEST OUTLET TO THE ACTION. THANK YOU.

Looks like the Dodger game, here is the self-proclaimed big game pitcher.

Chicago @ Boston - ALDS Game 3
Did anyone simply try and make contact or did everyone overswing and try to homer. Watching on the Internet sucks. Iguchi should've bunted.

Need some good excuses...
QUOTE(Stocking @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 09:15 AM) A friend of mine literally had a shart and was late to work. His boss was going to let him go till he was told that he was on his way and let out some gas and a little something followed. guess he felt sorry for him. haha same kid crapped himself while eating once too, oh now i need to to tell this story. So we are sitting at an outdoor patio eating. 4 guys, our food comes. "no, no that didnt just happen. " looks around with a blank stare, "no way, im 23 years old this shouldnt be happening." lifts an ass cheek, "yup, I just crapped myself, god damn it!" I just about pissed my pants laughing. THIS IS KNOWN AS GAMBLING AND LOSING!!!!!!

Ed Farmer Thoughts
QUOTE(spiderman @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 08:58 AM) I generally think Farmio does a good job, but I can't stand when he gets credit for calling a HR, like he did for Iguchi in Game 2. If you listen to enough to enough of the radio broadcast, you probably hear Farmer speculating about a White Sox player hitting a HR about 15 times a broadcast....'His next HR will be his whatever', or 'If he pitches a ball in a certain location, he could crush that ball' Again, not meaning to rip Famer - I think he's solid as a broadcaster, but don't be so fast to credit him for calling Iguchi's HR unless you're also willing to say he was wrong the 15 other times he called for one earlier in the game.... That's my rant. BTW, I am going to miss Rooney! By the way I felt they should've pitched around him as Dye looked lost against Wells. I said this to the guy next to me. I thought he would get better wood then Dye but did not think he would homer.

Need some good excuses...
QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Oct 7, 2005 -> 06:33 AM) Who's got a good excuse to leave work early, today? And yes, I know the White Sox are on is good, but I don't want to tell the boss that. Gamble (not with money) and lose. It could be messy and quite embarassing but if properly prepared ahead of time (bring extra clothes and stash them), it will only cost you a pair of pants. Setting the stage would be the tough part but only you know your body and what it can and can not take and the recovery time. Drink a gallon of milk in an hour and throw up all over your boss. Best of luck.

Possible 2006 radio preview?
QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Oct 6, 2005 -> 11:56 AM) Yeah, even Farmer asked him a few times if they might run across each other next year while on the road. Sure sounded to me like Rooney was gone. Ever hear Rooney give a response.......

Quick thought on Ozzie
A 96 plus MPH fastball is the best pitch in baseball especially after seeing Mark Buerhle 3 times prior to this. You can't hang a heater. Heat in the playoffs is a good thing, a very good thing. As for Damon he could not change up on the approach that worked against Buerhle. He let the ball come to him all night. You have to attack it against Jenks if you let it come to you......well see the Damon and Olerud at-bats. Not sure if this was the White Sox mindset on leaving him out there but it worked.

Quick thought on Ozzie
A couple of things. I thought Cotts in the 9th but how many saves does he have this season???? With that in mind and two lefties up, Jenks was the only option. Lefties kill Hermanson. I thought the ben may be over rested but Cliff and Neil pitched Tuesday. Ozzie has got balls.

Have you seen this?

Guess who's throwing out the first pitch?
QUOTE(Mercy! @ Oct 4, 2005 -> 01:16 AM) Not trying to rain on anyone's parade - but wouldn't Mayor Daley have been a logical choice? World Series Myself I go with former govenor and big Sox fan Jim Thompson.

25 Man Roster set
All safe bets although I would have liked to have seen Gload added for his bat instead of Blum. Gload looked decent in the outfield as well. I think Gload would fare well agaisnt Timlin. This gives us three options at short and third and four at second but only one at first.

ESPN Coverage
The 12:00 Wednesday afternoon audience is that great as oppossed to that which will watch whatever is on ESPN2 (Poker rerun) and Classic. I would think the options would increase the overall ratings as fans would stay tuned in if the games are entertaining. I know I would watch. How many fans watch at 12:00 ion the afternoon???????
