QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 11:09 AM) This board is sending me into convulsions. We've got DA who says Greg Walker is by no means responsible for anything that's gone wrong with the White Sox offense. Tex is saying as long as KW provides us with a paper champion in March that his job is completed and anything that happens after that is none of his concern. And now TRU is saying that because Ozzie has had bad players this year (I guess Ozzie is the only manager in the history of baseball that's ever had players underperform?) that he is absolved of all blame for this disaster of a season. Well there you have it. White Sox baseball: where infinity-like job security happens! I didn't say he should have a job for life.. and he hasn't just had bad players, hes had a few of THE worst players in baseball..

QUOTE (flippedoutpunk @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 02:38 AM) great now you know i can't buy the game if you don't right? I'm not playin that with Quentin i hope you know.

Like MW3 multiplayer reveal did

QUOTE (TheBigHurt @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 04:48 AM) Correct. Ozzie can't make those very well. If said manager could do what you JUST illiustrated, obviously a different manager WOULD have changed a LOT about this season... and every season since 2006 at LEAST. I happen to think Ozzie's idiotic managing is a bigger issue than his childish antics. Sorry, but if Dunn didn't crap his pants and Peavy and Rios where at least decent, no one would be talking about any of this..

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 5, 2011 -> 01:32 AM) But what about the times it works when he leaves Crain in too long and Crain gets the lefty out? Nobody ever says squat when it works. And it does work. The majority of the people around here are just tired of Ozzies act and frustrated with how the players have under achieved.. There is really no such thing as a "good" manager, its a lucky guy on a talented team.. gimme a break, I could be named manager of the Phillies tomorrow and not a single thing would change.. all they need to do is make EASY decisions like this guy pitches now, or this guy will hit in this spot.. a moron can win a World Series (OZZIE!?!) I cant stand when people slurp on Joe Maddon, get the hell out of here.. that guy got lucky he got a team that had been stockpiling great young talent for YEARS.. Its all about the talent, and what the team is able to afford.. The only thing the manager needs to do is not lose the clubhouse and make OBVIOUS decisions that most of you arm chair quarterbacks sitting at your computer do every game.. I cant imagine how anyone could possibly think that a different manager would have changed anything about this season.. Like I said, they are just tired of his act

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 4, 2011 -> 02:41 PM) I said upside. There's no way anybody can look at the two organizations right now and say we have more upside than them. Sure you can, we don't have to worry about playing Tampa, New York, and Boston almost half of our schedule -
I watched YouTube gameplay of Dead Island and I wasnt very impressed with it

QUOTE (chw42 @ Sep 2, 2011 -> 11:46 PM) You guys should try some of the sliders they have on Operation Sports. They make the outcomes so much more realistic. Thats the worst thing about sports games, its so hard to get realistic gameplay..

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Sep 3, 2011 -> 03:40 PM) Juan's hitting over .280. He's good. He was only bad defensively for one month and he's demonized by Sox fans. I'll never get the Juan hate. Just saving greg the time. Hes better than Milledge

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 30, 2011 -> 11:50 AM) Maybe that $4 million could've been spent on the draft? And it was a terrible move. A washed up steroid abuser, one who had been on the DL multiple times? Just sign Thome for $1 million and there's no need for Manny. lol ok man, they surely would have spent that money on the draft.. I think we both know that wasnt gonna happen

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Aug 30, 2011 -> 11:49 AM) I am loving the changes, I just think they have been made too late. We're 5 games back at the end of August, that's quite a feat to overcome and the Tigers have only been playing better too. 5 games back, still 6 left with Detroit.. not to mention Cleveland, KC, and Minny for the whole month of September.. Its amazing what a difference it makes when you remove a black hole from the middle of the lineup and replace it with production..
-
where is milkman and sqwert to crown Cleveland and say this is the worst team in the league? damn he beat me in!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 30, 2011 -> 11:13 AM) $4 million bucks for 20 games or so is most definitely something. Uh, who gives a s***? Did that stop us from spending money in the offseason? Nope. Did we give up anything of importance? Nope. That was a move that COULD have had awesome results, it didn't.. oh well.. it wasn't a bad move by any means though..

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 29, 2011 -> 10:23 AM) I'm not sure. Turn it around and ask it the other way...is KW the kind of person who would walk out on JR over a dispute about Ozzie? If JR told him that he is only GM in name and Ozzie will make all the decisions, then yes I do think he would have walked out or resigned a while ago.. I honestly think that KW is trying to give HIS moves all the time in the world to work out so he can satisfy himself..

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 29, 2011 -> 10:08 AM) If the scenario was: KW has no authority right now to fire Guillen because of an edict from ownership, Consequently, KW has no authority right now to force Guillen to follow his instructions (because he can't fire him for open defiance of KW's decisions), and Guillen makes clear that he will not play Viciedo if he's called up, he'll bench the kid like he did last year, and maybe insult/run him down a bit for good measure Then KW's hands are tied from above and below in the org. So do you really think KW is the type of person who would stick around knowing he has no power? I dont..

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 29, 2011 -> 08:29 AM) It was extra hard to read the twitter feed with Joe Cowardly going into cover Ozzie's ass mode by trying to make Viciedo into Kenny's fault instead of Ozzie's fault. It is extra douchey to read the smartest columnist in mom's basement when you know he is just trying to cover for his one source in town. How is it not KWs fault

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 28, 2011 -> 09:24 PM) I'm not going to pretend I was clamoring for De Aza or Flowers. And I'm not going to take the short sample sizes we've seen so far and extrapolate that over a full season. That's crazy and b****ing just to b****. All I will say is that Ozzie/KW had multiple options they could've turned to when so many guys they were counting on this year failed to produce at any point this season and they did absolutely nothing. Why do people keep saying KW/Ozzie like? Is there any proof ANYWHERE that Ozzie has the power to veto roster moves? KW coulda fixed this mess a while ago, too many people think Ozzie is the problem when KWs ego wont allow him to fix messes he made HIMSELF

QUOTE (Flash Tizzle @ Aug 27, 2011 -> 11:23 PM) I'm basically setting the expectations upon our GM to deliver a franchise changing deal involving atleast two blue chip prospects (does not include a RP or 4thOF) from any trade involving Danks. It's necessary for our improvement. And they damn well better produce. If he can finish the year pitching like he did tonight, they better damn well get a package like that.. We could prolly have the Yankees by the balls if their pitching f***s them in the playoffs this year
-
I cant wait for them to trade Danks, they couldnt possibly f*** that up
