The QB on Wazzu threw for 734 yards! Illinois could have hired Mike Leach and been part of that, instead they will give up 734 rushing yards at Camp Randall next week.

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 10:36 PM) f***, just lost another bloody parlay. Stop betting on drunk Sox Talk posts! That section near the homer was completely empty. It was like a Sox game!

QUOTE (pettie4sox @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 10:31 PM) Just lost my condo. I meant the 19th inning

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 10:26 PM) Bryce Harper about to walk it off with a homer. Book it. Or maybe not. The Giants have two quality starts in the same game

Bryce Harper about to walk it off with a homer. Book it.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 10:12 PM) USC loses on Hail Mary. What an awful hire they made The linebacker is leaning back trying to catch it. Has he never heard Chris Berman? KNOCK IT DOWN!!! My brother in law may be killing puppies right now

Stadium is half empty in the 15th https://twitter.com/JeffPassan/status/518591889755602944

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 08:07 PM) K zone showed it was a strike. Yeah, those were both strikes. Problem is, those are only called strikes half the time.

Best day ever in the history of the state of Mississippi?

QUOTE (Leonard Zelig @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 01:25 PM) The Sox were losing in the 7th inning of game 5. That's right. Contreras also didn't allow a baserunner after the 5th inning and was only at 103 pitches after 8. In game 4, Garcia had a 4-run lead in the 5th and never had more than one runner on after that In the 6th inning of game 3, Garland gave up a 2-run homer to make it 5-2, then he retired the last 10 batters of the game. Some managers may have used their bullpen at some point, but it's not like leads were in jeopardy with lots of runners on base when Ozzie left them in.

Illinois @ Wisconsin next week. Over/under on Melvin Gordon rushing yards is 300

Arthur Staple @StapeNewsday · 12m 12 minutes ago Official: #Isles acquire D Nick Leddy from CHI for D Ville Pokka, D T.J. Brennan and G Anders Nilsson.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 11:53 AM) Most Sox fans don't even understand the dominance of that 05 team. That was something special. The bullpen was so good, I always underestimate how good the rotation was. Mark, Garland, and Contreras all had the best seasons of their entire careers. And it was a top 5 season for Freddy.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 01:10 PM) Officially on the fire Beckman train now, this is pathetic. Purdue averages 136 rushing yards a game. They had about 147 in the first half. Is that bad?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 09:44 AM) Littlehurts second favorite team has a little mojo going And of course the two extra inning homers were by their "can't-miss" prospects who still aren't that good.

QUOTE (SoxPride18 @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 07:57 AM) Word on the street is Leddy and another player might head east, and it might be Morin. This is all on Q, because he doesn't like either player. f***ing pisses me off. Morin is a great scorer and he'll replace Sharp next year, but if they trade him, I'm calling for Q's head because f***ing Carcillo is going to take his spot. Agreed, bringing on Carcillo is 100% Q. Rumors that Leddy was headed to the Isles, but they just traded for Johnny Boychuck from Boston.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 4, 2014 -> 01:45 AM) Hmmm ... As I recall no other team in the postseason has come close to that kind of use of its starting pitchers a few years before and since 2005. I still think the Sabes people and all "modern" baseball tacticians would say that would NEVER work. Magic, destiny I tell ya. It's not ALL about numbers (cough, Billy Beane). Because no other rotation pitched as well as the Sox did in that ALCS. Combine that with how the offense stepped up in LA, I don't think the tying run was ever on deck in the final 3 innings in games 3-5, so there was no reason to use the bullpen. Two years earlier, Grady Little tried to do the same thing with the best pitcher in baseball and he lost the series and his job.

I'd rather have Adam Dunn up than Josh Hamilton right now. He is done.

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 11:19 PM) Hawk says it is the most important part of a team may not be too far off. The Tigers won the division despite an awful bullpen. The Royals won the wild card because of an awesome bullpen.

It's Mike Trout time

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 10:53 PM) I doubt the sabermetricians approved of Ozzie leaving those starters in the whole game. I disagree. None of those starters were near their pitch limit nor were they in dangerous situations with runners on. They either had big leads or low pitch counts, even Ned Yost would have kept them in

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 10:11 PM) The Cardinals are f***in annoying. Best Fans in Baseball! http://deadspin.com/the-mayor-of-st-louis-...s***-1642052026

And Carcillo got in a fight on his first shift tonight. Why does Bowman give in to Q on the personnel decisions? Word on Twitter is that Leddy is all but gone

QUOTE (bmags @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 03:10 PM) I'm just getting Hunter Hillenmeyer flashbacks. He's out running in a field somewhere with Kim Johnsson.

QUOTE (TheTruth05 @ Oct 3, 2014 -> 03:07 PM) Oakland made all the right moves and still didn't make it. Sucks Detroit made all the wrong moves (or no moves at all) and is paying for it now. Very good To this day, that offseason Doug Fister trade just dumbfounds me
