He mentioned Walker's name along with his own in a rant about the team under-performing. Walker needs to grow a pair and not go whining to the owner over it.

QUOTE (DaveBrown85 @ Jun 4, 2008 -> 11:52 PM) I was at the game. Did Ramirez really not touch home plate? I'm pretty sure he missed. Should have gone back and tagged it to be absolutely sure. Oh well, its still a win. I fell asleep after they failed to do anything in the 11th.

Nick Swisher continues to be awful at the game of baseball.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 08:45 PM) i thought her speech was exactly what she needed to do. she'll concede w/in the next few days, but with the speech, keep your supporters feeling good donating money because they're already depressed, might as well let them have one more heartfelt cheer. she wasn't defiant like pundits claimed, she'll do whats best for the party and that's what she said.

She spoke for close to 20 minutes and didn't say a single damn thing.

What the hell got into this team?

Quentin is the 2008 White Sox offense.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 3, 2008 -> 11:30 AM) She HAS to endorse him once he wins. It would be political suicide not to do so. Oh, she'll endorse him after the convention for sure. I don't see her doing it before then, though.

Hillary will acknowledge that Barack has the delegates. I don't know if she will drop out and I really doubt she'll endorse him. She can still keep it up, trying to ply away pledged delegates, superdelegates, whining about this and that, etc. so that she keeps beating up Barack and gives herself a better opening for a 2012 run.

QUOTE (LVSoxFan @ Jun 2, 2008 -> 11:51 AM) He's got kind of a point though: first place is great, but considering we are back to being the Comedy Central, that ain't saying much. We're only four games above .500. And we all know that this kind of performance is going to head over a cliff eventually. Just like it did in '06, just like it did last year... Fire Greg Walker. Now. We're also one of a handful of teams with a winning road record AND we've played more road games than anyone.

QUOTE (Texsox @ Jun 2, 2008 -> 06:55 AM) Ensberg drops off at 32 and it could be PEDs. Another guy goes from a non starter highly-touted prospect with history of success in the minors who was sidelined by injury to being health and leading the league in HRs, and that specualtion is wrong.

3-30 with RSIP over the weekend.

What is the criteria for judging a hitting coach's worth?

Game.

Fantastic job. I hate Nick Swisher. What a terrible acquisition he was.

How do you not put in Quentin?

That's essentially the ball game.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ May 31, 2008 -> 06:26 PM) Well, I complained about us not hitting with RISP yesterday. So naturally we've only had one guy reach 2nd base today. There you go, Thome K's looking.

Swisher is a big bag o' suck right now. Glad we traded for him.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ May 31, 2008 -> 06:16 PM) Can you tell me what Quentin's career MLB average was before this year. I am curious. Doesn't matter. Whatever someone's career AVG is after ~400 AB's is what they hit for their career. Proven again and again.

If you politicize the pulpit (like Pfleger, Robertson, etc.), you should lose your tax-exempt status. If you turn your church into a political organization, should you still be tax-exempt?

I wonder if some of the Patriot Riders Guard (big dudes on Harleys who go to soldiers' funerals to block/ drown out these morons) will be on hand

I think I'll be buying a Quentin jersey soon.

In one of the botched run-downs, OCab got rid of the ball like a hot potato instead of running him back to first. As a result, the runner advanced to 2nd.
