Admittedly the cubs have gotten a bunch of cheap hits but the decisions made by Guillen to KEEP FU*&ING MACDOUGAL IN IS FU*&ING GOD DAMN INEXCUSABLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does every OTHER MANAGER IN THE LEAGUE bring in someone NEW for the 8th??? Can we just friggin gift wrap this for them or what??? I don't understand, that's not even close to being the right decision- it is so far from it I can't even say anymore...

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 18, 2007 -> 03:24 PM) Why did MacDougal come in over Aardsma when we need one out? How many f**king g*d d#mn blown f**king leads has this bullpen given up already in the late innings this year??????

Terrero = USELESS

QUOTE(daa84 @ May 13, 2007 -> 09:18 AM) sweeneys approach, discipline and polish at the plate look to be 10 times better than Anderson. he looks like a baseball player whereas anderson looks like a guy who is athletic that is playing baseball....id love to see him stay with the club and for us to either send terrero back down I could be wrong, but right now with how Sweeney looks disciplined at the plate and looking good defensively, isn't it a no brainer to send down Terrero when Thome comes back? And when Pods comes back, in my opinion, Sisco should go down because he needs to get some control...I am hoping they don't even bother with Pods until after the allstar break so we can see what Sweeney can do- this is great experience for him and he's managed to get some key hits for us as well...

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ May 12, 2007 -> 09:57 PM) Our 2 best hitters right now are Ryan Sweeney and Juan Uribe. Why you ask? Because they are letting the ball get deep, hitting fastballs the other way and then unloading on the crappy off speed pitches and yanking them. THAT is how you get out of a slump boys, maybe Greg Walker doesn't realize that (hence his job should have been taken away), but Juan Uribe and Ryan Sweeney seem to. Try it sometime. Exactly. Why we'd send down Sweeney instead of Terrero when Thome gets back up I have no clue at this point, the kid is really growing on me. It was good to see him finally turn on the ball (ironic I know based on what everyone else is doing on the squad) when he jacked one out tonight.

Biggest W of the year!!! Let's go sweep those pussy Twins!!!

Nice Job Matt!!!!!!

I just couldn't help myself...what is the love affair with Sweeney in this forum? To me he has ALWAYS looked like a left handed version of Brian Anderson. For now, I am going to refer to him as Brian Sweeney until he proves me wrong...

Today's lineup: CF Darrin Erstad 2B Pablo Ozuna DH Jim Thome 1B Paul Konerko RF Jermaine Dye 3B Joe Crede C A.J. Pierzynski LF Rob Mackoviak SS Juan Uribe

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 04:28 PM) It seems to me that OG and KW need to sit down with BA and explain exactly how he fits into or out of their plans. I'm not sure they have a clue either. Look at what they're doing right now- it doesn't make much sense...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 10:19 AM) On a separate note, how great has Mack looked in LF the last 2 nights? It's so unusual to see such confidence/ability in LF for the Sox. So great to see. He said about a week ago that if he was going to make any defensive replacements late in games that it would be Brian heading to LF with Erstad in CF. I guess he doesn't want to disrespect his veteran players or hurt Erstad's feelings. Ozzie is pretty much living in his own world on this one. So here's the question- how LONG does the organization go with Erstad hitting like this before they make a move? I mean, Hawk (who is believes in everything KW and gang are doing) said last night he is SO HAPPY that GrindErstad is here with us, despite hitting .156 or whatever the sick average is. I wonder how long his free pass goes- my feeling is he can hit .200 or below until June 1 without them doing a thing, which is really scary...

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Apr 19, 2007 -> 09:26 AM) I wish more media would grill Ozzie on this situation so we can get the truth. A scenario I see possible is like the movie "A Few Good Men" where Ozzie just goes off. OZ: You want answers? Reporter: I think I'm entitled to them. OZ: You want answers? Reporter: I want the truth! OZ: You can't handle the truth!! OZ: Look we play a game with outfield walls...those walls need to be defended..whose gonna defend them you??.....you Mr Marriotti? I pick the men to defend those walls...we live by words like honor and team work...you use them as a punchline. I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Brian and you curse the manager. You have that luxury.... I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a reporter who sells papers on my every move and then questions the manner in which I make them!! I'd rather you just said thank you and went on your way. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think you're entitled to! Reporter: Did you tell Brian he could win the job in spring training just to turn around and hand it to Erstad. OZ: If I say Brian ain't playing then he ain't playing!!! Reporter: Did you tell him when he does play, you will put him in the least possible situation to succeed. OZ: You Fa**ot...I make the lineup!! Reporter: Do you Hate Brian Anderson Mr Guillen... OZ: I do the job they hired me to do. Reporter: That's not what I asked, Do you Hate Brian Anderson OZ: .*@$*&^@ Reporter: Stop blabbering and answer the question Do you Hate Brian Anderson.... OZ: &%$(*#^)*&)#(%$_)#%*)(*^)*(^_ *@$*&^@.... Reporter: ANSWER THE QUESTION MR GUILLEN...DO YOU HATE---- OZ: YOU'RE GOD DAMN RIGHT I DO!!!!!!!!!!! Thank You!! OUTSTANDING! How many times did you have to rewind your DVD of A Few Good Men to get that perfect??? :-)

This from BA on WhiteSox.com: "Honestly, whether they are still high on me or down on me, it doesn't affect me either way," Anderson said. "It's no disrespect to them, but I just don't care. They have control and dictate when and where I play. "If things don't work out here, they can work out somewhere else. I'm not saying I want to leave, but at the same time, it's like I'm still young. I'm going to let this year play out and whatever they want to do, they can do. They can trade me, send me down, keep me, platoon me, that's their choice. I have no hard feelings whatever they want to do." No hard feelings Brian??? It doesn't sound that way to me!

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 08:19 PM) f*** YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am proud to say I saw the last one with Wilson Alvarez as well back in 1991. 1 Dog made a great catch to keep the no no alive. I have to say, for all of you ripping on Buerhle (and we know who you are)... VINDICATION BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 07:43 PM) The second I saw him pick up that ball I went to baseballreference.com and checked Mark's career K numbers, there's not milestone in sight. UP TO THE SECOND DARIN ERSTAD SUPER LEADOFF GUY STAT LINE: .159/.224/.227/.452 Awesome. Hawk would say its a "hard" .159...

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 07:40 PM) Perhaps he has a feeling about tonights game and wants a few souvenirs. It's funny I was thinking the same thing. I can't think of another reason why he'd do that...

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 07:30 PM) How'd Hairston Jr. get ejected, I just got back from a whiffle ball game. Argument on a close play at first on a grounder. BTW, what is this guy still doing with a job? He sucks and isn't a third the player his dad was. Amazing. Anyway- it's amazing watching the tide turn in this forum on one swing from JD...

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 07:17 PM) And Erstad groundsout to the right side... what new. I am SO glad we have a .160 hitter leading off as well...Erstad better pick it up otherwise Hawk is going to be eating some Crowe (if you will)

QUOTE(bad at best @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 06:47 PM) nice play by crede, but the runner was safe. He was OUT by a hair, his hands didn't hit the bag before Paulie caught it....

QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Apr 18, 2007 -> 04:32 PM) Ha, looks like you've been screwed by the mlb.commies as well. I sent probably three emails to their recommended customer service email account and never received a response. i finally had to have my bank cancel the charge. HORRIBLE customer service. I've emailed them probably 4 or 5 times this year. NO response to any of the emails. You wonder WTF is going on??? The 700k service is a nice upgrade, I have to admit, but if you need to communicate with these guys at ALL you're fu&*ed...

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 05:34 PM) In fact, even down south a bit in Texas and some of the southern states, the girls take better care of themselves. Chicago has the winter weight curse. Let me invite you out to Warsaw or Kiev (Ukraine) and you'll see what real women look like. Trust me, as a guy born and raised in Chicago (living in Lakeview but a Sox fan) I used to be ALL ABOUT North side chicks. They are complete pigs compared to the ones in Warsaw or Kiev. Kiev has the hottest chicks by far (Most women look like Anna Kournikova) and they are not snooty either...you can have a field day out here ;-)

QUOTE(RME JICO @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 04:00 PM) Bigger pic here: http://www.lookatbowen.com/?m=200603 I live in Warsaw, Poland (believe it or not) and I can tell you this is how the girls look in Eastern Europe. All chicks are skinny out here and take care of themselves (unlike these pigs from Chicago who wear jean shorts and eat french fries right out of the grease). Sad but true. And another believe it or not, there are at least 10 White Sox fans I know of out here! Pretty amazing! P.S. The weather out here has been 60-70 and sunny daily. WTF is going on in the US???

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Apr 17, 2007 -> 01:07 PM) April has a good chance of being the coldest April in the US for over 100 years. And you have that PUSSY Al Gore spewing out this nonsense of global warming!!! Ridiculous!!! :-)
