If I was a Twinb fan, I'd be pissed they ran him. That was pretty shallow

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 07:48 PM) I must have missed something there. Why was a throw needed? Wasn't there 2 outs??? You didn't miss anything, you added something, the second out

I can't believe they sent him. That is a desperate move by the Twins

yes yes yes

Come on

Come on, keep throwing strikes

didn't this guy use to have some power? Ah f***

Caught a break

We're the Sox, hit a f***ing home run

QUOTE (Utah Sox Fan @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 07:31 PM) Nice inning JD, 9 pitches, and that's with a full count in the middle. Welcome to Soxtalk

Just a little offense.

Did we miss anything Hocksicle?

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 05:55 PM) Harold Reynolds is so full of s***. So he wants Gardenhire to be the manager of the year and Morneau to be the MVP of the league? His justification for picking Gardenhire is that he's gotten the absolute most out of his talentless loser team, except they have the f***ing most valuable player in the middle of their f***ing lineup, so how can that be? It would be pretty funny if Morneau and Howard took home the MVP awards this year. A couple of sub .890 OPS 1B being awarded as the most valuable players in the game, talk about a s*** season for the MVP race. yeah, but Reynolds agrees with me that this is NOT a regular season game and the stats should be in post season

I'm getting twitchy banning fingers

QUOTE (hockisles @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 05:51 PM) flip a coin to see who wins the game then.. For both of these teams home field is a HUGE advantage. What makes a coin flip fair? What would make it fair by dismissing the other 144 games that each team played?

QUOTE (hockisles @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 05:49 PM) If i were the twins i would be pissed that the game is in chicago. A coin flip decides who gets the game??? That is just dumb. Should be who has the better record head to head...then goto the division record. Play 162 games and have 163rd game decided by who gets home field. that is just dumb. A coin flip recognizes 162 games, head to head uses waaaaay less.

DANKS

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 02:38 PM) they decided not to air the game in chicago since nobody would be interested. Isn't everybody at a Cubs rally?

I understand the 162 game counting for regular season, but 163 seems wrong somehow. Imagine the uproar if some cherished record was broken during a 163 game season. Holy Astrix Batman!

We already have term limits. Our elected officials come up for vote regularly. It should be up to the citizens if they want to keep reelecting an official. I dislike the basic premise of term limits, that voters are too stupid to vote out a bad official. I am generally against any efforts to circumvent voters.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 05:11 PM) I also need a little help. I just started using itunes. Where is the folder where the songs are downloaded to when you buy one? In mine there is a folder marked iTunes in the My Documents folder.

Will the stats for this game be added to regular season or playoffs? Seems like it should be post season stats not regular season, but we keep hearing playing this game to get into the playoffs.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 12:41 PM) I don't think its as lopsided as people are claiming. A-ram has a higher average, more SB, 1/2 the K's, more hits, slightly less RBI and HR, 4 GS's. 'ei started off ice cold and longo missed a month. Sure he may get it just cause the MLB has been hyping up Longo and nobody knows who Alexei is, but it should be extremely close. You bring up an excellent point that highlights one of the things I really think is unfair in these types of selections. It is usually better to have a no month than a slow month. Voters tend to fill in high the no month and count the slow month. One of the challenges of being a rookie is 162 games. Coming up they would never play that long of a season and will almost always slump.
