QUOTE (ROC Sox Fan @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 09:10 PM) We'll sweep the Dodgers, everything will be fine and dandy, then the Cubs will sweep us again, it will be all doom and gloom, and the ridiculous streakiness will continue all season as we pound the teams we're supposed to beat and lose to the real contenders. UGH. Only to win 5/6 before and 5/6 after the ASB vs KC and TEX to make everything in the world tasty.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 09:05 PM) Oh, and It's only one game, we're still in first, you only care so much because it's the Cubs, etc... Exactly. God, we're so dumb for hating this team right now.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 09:04 PM) This season is over, obviously. We know, we know. But honestly, nobody besides you and Tony support that BS. To now be now 17-23 on the road after we were just 17-14 on the road is fantastic, right? To now be only 1.5 games up after just being 6.5 games up is fine, right? To not be able to open a local newspaper, flip on a local sports news station, or even ESPN itself is good, right? To hear it from a bunch of yuppy-f***s is fine, right? Sweet. It's OK guys. We're fine. As long as we're in first, it's cool. Even if we lose 10 in a row with an 11 game lead is fine, too, right?

QUOTE (tommy @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 09:06 PM) Swept. I expect the Sox to sweep the Cubs at home, period. Good joke.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 09:02 PM) WOW! An OBP .040 pts higher than his BA! He is a must get!!! I KNOW!! Who needs that .290 BA and 47 RBI? He sucks. Don't go get him because he's better then our current CF, right? Go out and get a guy worse then him! His BA is what, only .060 better then Anderson's too- that's not good at all.

Thank you White Sox. I can now use you guys as a tool on how to not tell my kid on how not to play baseball. "Hey son, watch this game. If you play like that, I'll slap you."

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:56 PM) No way in hell WE would do that. Kemp isn't that good. He doesn't even stand out in that awful line up in LA now. I'd take his .290 BA, .333 OBP, and his 47 RBI.

Did he like any teams? If so, was he a die-hard? Was he very patriotic? Did he collect anything, have a hobby? Was there any names you remember him by like nicknames? If there was more details, I'm sure I can think of something.

QUOTE (WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:48 PM) No way in hell they would do that when they have guys like DeWitt and LaRoche I totally forgot about LaRoche, my fault. They used to be interested in Crede but now with DeWitt, there's no chance they take him from us, especially in a contract year.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 09:46 PM) Oh yeah? Who you looking for us to trade for? Anderson and Crede for Kemp.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:43 PM) I'm not buying into the Kershaw hype. I mean he has good stuff, but whenever I watched him I wasn't overly impressed. His fastball is much too straight and while his curve can be devistating, he still needs to get it over consistently to be effective in the pros. I think he'll be a good starter, but I don't think he'll be some super ace ESPN is making him out to be. Good stuff or not, he's a LHP and he'll be facing this offense. You know what the outcome of that will be, come on now.

Does anybody know how to get this as my avatar? I noticed joesaid and BearSox have moving avatars. It doesn't work even after I resized it to 100x75.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:41 PM) Anybody know the pitching matchups out in Dodger Stadium this week? Hope we can win that series or the division lead will be gone... We'll see Lowe, Stults, and Kershaw. 2 LHP's

Oh, and wait until D-Lowe gets hold of this offense on Tuesday. O/U- 3 GIDP's for us?

Wait until Kershaw gets hold of this offense on Thursday.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:38 PM) He may not have hit any HRs this weekend but I think CQ has done pretty well this weekend..5-9, if everybody could hit and get on base like him instead of aiming for the fences, maybe we could have at least one this weekend Look, I know. I said it could have gone either way. Quentin played well but Patterson impressed me.

QUOTE (BearSox @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:37 PM) If you are just talking about this series, fine, but all together, Patterson doesn't even come close to Quentin, and Ramirez is better than either DeRosa/Fontenot/Cedano/etc. Hence the "After this series" part of my post.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:36 PM) CQ's been fine this wknd, just stop Look, I didn't say Patterson totally outplayed him. I put "Could go either way" for a reason. Quentin and Dye were the offense this series, and a bit of AJ, but Patterson has impressed after all the s*** you hear about him from Cubs fans.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:33 PM) LOL @ your LF comment If you watched no games this whole year except these last 3 on mute and you didn't look at any stats that pop up at the bottom, I wouldn't know if I wanted Patterson or Quentin, honestly.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:31 PM) dotel is just garbage, nobody fears this chump That's what getting off steriods thus getting injury after injury does to you.

After this series, all the position comparisons on who would you take, should now look like this. C- AJ 1B- Lee 2B- Could go either way SS- Theriot 3B- Ramirez LF- Could go either way with Patterson and Quentin CF- Edmonds RF- Dye

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:25 PM) Dude, we get the point. You're act is getting old. Sorry, I just don't get how a sweep is fine as long as we're in first. QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:25 PM) Brian we proved with our play we have no balls. That's true, also.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:23 PM) Hitting him would be meaningless at this point. How about getting him out with our excellent pitching staff and bullpen? Meaningless? I can't exactly speak for the rest of the guys and gals on this board, but it would mean a lot- it'd show we actually have balls.

QUOTE (Brian @ Jun 22, 2008 -> 08:21 PM) Keep letting Aramis extend those arms. No need to pitch inside. Dude, where's the green? BTW, it's fine that we lost this and just got swept. A 1.5 game lead is better than no lead even when we just had a 6.5 game lead 2 weeks ago.

CAN WE PLEASE HIT THIS PUNK JACK@$$ RIGHT IN THE HEAD NEXT TIME UP? GOOD GOD, OZZIE!!!
