QUOTE (whitesox32 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 07:59 PM) I'll be there on sunday and there is no doubt I'm giving pods a standing ovation. everyone on that 05 team deserves one when they come back home. I remember going to a game a couple years back against the cardinals, edmonds ran into the wall and got hurt then timo perez came in. everyone in the outfield got up and gave him a standing O. Did he give a wave, hit tip, anything to acknowledge?

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 09:17 PM) Who cares about the Twins. The Tigers and Indians are our main competitors. Agreed. The Tribe are now what, only 6.5 out?

QUOTE (Chet Lemon @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 08:00 PM) It was Loaiza's fault the team was swept in Detroit.

I was going to post this in the gamethread tomorrow... He should get a standing O. I'll be there Saturday and since I can't be there tomorrow, I'm going to give him one on Sat. Why would he get booed?

QUOTE (bkmoney @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 04:00 PM) Edmonds hits a HR in to tie it... how it Atlanta so bad on the road??? its ugly how bad they are It's like they never lose.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 02:23 PM) That's a bit much. But that series sure did suck. Now we've got a week at home against 2 week teams. Take care of business in those series, win each one, and all is OK in the world. And then we kind of "stay home" because then we go to Wrigley.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:19 PM) Sometimes you just need to tip your cap. *barf* Boy, like you, I am just so tired of that expression by Hawk, DJ, Ozzie, and the players.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:14 PM) yeah we got him good earlier this year when he didnt have any command...but historically we struggle against him or any other soft tossing lefty with a decent changeup That's true. Sorry for the pissy attitude, this team is driving me insane. BTW, I can't wait to see how many GIDP's we get when we face Dempster. Let's set the over/under at 5 for both games combined he's scheduled to pitch vs us.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:29 PM) Anyone watching this 1948 game? In black and white, terrible camera angles, no replays.God this would get annoying. EDIT: It's over now; they went back to a normal broadcast. Thank god. That was brutal. I was actually going to watch that over watching our team, it was like Warren Spahn was on the mound for the Tigers. But now, I'm watching- those camera shots were brutal. Good to see them losing 2-0. I really hope we face Z twice, because that will mean he has to go on 3 or 4 days rest one of the 2 times.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:12 PM) a horribly mismanaged game by ozzie in game 1 set the tone for this series...we never touch rogers so the loss today was predictable ...then the middle game verlander beat us.... i dont know why any other team in the majors will throw fastballs to our guys... Correct me if I'm wrong, but last time he faced, didn't we get about 6 runs off of him in 4 innings?

QUOTE (jphat007 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:10 PM) Probably so. Especially considering we have a recent history of playing poorly at home... Oh wait. It won't matter if we're trying to hit it on the Dan Ryan every time, right? Oh wait.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:08 PM) swept. hilarious. at least we get to go back home to the flashing lights in center. Maybe we'll get swept by COL, PIT, and then the Cubs.

YAYYYYYYYYYYY

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 01:06 PM) For Ordonez and Cabrera, and probably Granderson...yeah, Dotel in is the right move. Thornton or Booner should come in to face Granderson. But Ozzie has too much faith in Dotel to do that.

"O-Do-Tell" ---DJ = Annoying

Nothin' like a sharp single to lead off the inning, only for our "clean up" hitter to ground into the ol' 5-4-3 DP, and then our 5 hitter hit a lazy fly ball to RF.

YEAHHH PAULIE!!

Jeff Francis tomorrow, another crafty LHP who's been bad this year who will throw a CG with 6 hits and 2 runs.

Dye's going to hit a 3 run HR. Bank on it.

QUOTE (SoxFan562004 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 12:58 PM) awesome 1-2-3 by MB, very good game by him The hot offense really helped him today.

What a disgrace this is. Can't even make a what-should-be-routine fly out look routine...

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jun 12, 2008 -> 12:53 PM) 8 hits so far in 17 innings. Glad the offense was fixed. 2 runs in 18 innings going back to Tuesday.

Ripping the hell out of the ball right now.
