QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 2, 2010 -> 08:55 AM) Touche. But I've done a ton of research since I've changed my diet/lifestyle and study after study shows that people on primarily plant based diets have much lower cancer rates. Sqwert, have you ever heard of this? As other posters have said, the studies are incredibly contradictory and confusing. The problem is, many of them are funded by groups seeking to promote their industry or product or way of thinking. The fact is, science really does not know nearly as much as it claims to know about what is good and what is bad for us to put in our bodies. In my view, the best choice is simply to use common sense and moderation. I don't know about your milk argument, but my guess is that much of the problems begin not because of the milk itself, but because of all the chemicals/hormones that we have either directly or indirectly introduced into the equation whether it be to the animal's food source, the animal itself, or to the milk after it leaves the animal. The key seems to be to get back to the basics and try to eat food that is fresh and as local as is feasible. Of course then you get into inefficiencies of smaller scale agriculture vs. huge scale, and it all gets so complicated. Just use common sense and moderation.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jul 4, 2010 -> 12:09 AM) I wouldn't do Danks + Hudson. Maybe Floyd + Hudson, but definitely not Danks + a top prospect I don't think you can give away one of our current SPs plus Hudson...you've got to use Hudson to replace that pitcher you move...

QUOTE (hi8is @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 11:56 PM) if i was the brewers - id say danks + hudson for fielder and some AA pitcher Well, the reason you're even willing to consider that deal if you're the White Sox is because you have Hudson to replace Danks...

They got my money in (Frankfort, Hinsdale, Joliet, Northbrook, and every other town in Illinois)

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 10:00 PM) Gallardo/Danks would immediately become the third best 1-2 combo in the NL behind Lincecum/Cain and Carpenter/Wainwright. You think they would consider it, considering Johnny has an extra year of service time left?

I've been scouring the rosters for hitters and there just isn't much out there. It seems like with this being the "year of the pitcher," there are a lot more teams unwilling to give up bats. Our options are going to be to give up a really good player to get a proven bat, give up two really good prospects, or to give up one good prospect for a mediocre bat. Or else, of course, to stand pat and hope our own assets get it going.

I wonder if the Brewers would take Danks straight-up for Fielder.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 10:00 PM) So once again, a lot of smoke and no fire today? How did the Bulls meeting with Lebron go? Whats the latest on Wade, Bosh and Boozer??? No one has any clue. Bucher saying Bosh in a sign and trade to Houston.

Not saying I didn't want Q to pinch hit earlier, but Feliz would have made Viciedo look awful.

I hate AJ. And damn you PK for not getting that run in last inning.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:33 PM) That doesn't mean we've been unlucky. It's been a pretty even game, and they've executed slightly better than we have. The score is about right. How do you figure when we have more hits and have stranded more men? Go Lilli!

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:28 PM) 9 hits are just not going to get you anywhere when none are extra base hits and you haven't walked at all. It's hard to be that upset when you can count the amount of hard hit balls you have for the night on one hand. I don't know what game you have been watching, but their hits have been the same damn thing.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:25 PM) I wouldn't call it a tough luck loss. We are getting what we deserve so far with the punch and Judy hitters. I don't really care what you would call it. We've got 9 hits, stranded 7, and Johnny pitched a solid game against a good-hitting team. It has been there for the taking. Our bloops just aren't find holes like theirs are.

Well, that was our chance. Another tough luck loss here...

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 09:04 PM) This might be the most boring game of the season, even the runs against us have been boring. At least Buehrle is pitching tomorrow, and we know how he dominates in Texas!! And those damn flashing lights!

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:57 PM) Sorry shack, for someone reason my reply button isn't working. You can just tell by Viciedo's swing that he cannot get the bat head out in time for inside fastballs. If it's outside, he can mash it. I'd love to know where his home runs went in AAA this season, by direction. I respect your opinion Fath, but there are a whole lot of other people saying the kid is going to hit...I'm sure he has some flaws to fix, but he's 21 (allegedly). Let's hope he can tighten them up.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:54 PM) How in the hell can we not hit this pitcher? Also, I don't think it's possible for Viciedo to hit an inside fastball with authority. Once again, another Sox prospect with a huge hole in his swing. You know better than to diagnose the guy after 25 ABs

Poor Gordon...looks like he may be starting to figure some things out though...

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jul 3, 2010 -> 08:49 PM) Frankly, #400 is not a huge milestone. Especially when everyone knows you're not likely to reach #500.

Ok, good job Johnny... We're going to score some f***ing runs at some point...
