Ken Wiffey Jr. What a joke.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:17 PM) I really thought Thome and Griffey would explode this series. This could be the last time they sniff the postseason. Guess they're destined to retire ringless. Agreed. I actually thought Junior would start out slow, and Thome would carry us. Had we gotten to the WS, I figured Thome would win ALCS, and then he'd slow down in the WS but Junior would pick it up and win the WS. Now, that's if we got there, which I didn't predict.

Chip away, vets. PK

Konerko taking 90 mph heaters right there for strike 2. Unreal. QUOTE (Wanne @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:15 PM) Thome 2-14 this series. Super! Such a clutch f***ing player!

QUOTE (FranktheTank35 @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:12 PM) No, I didn't expect another ring. But I can't tell you how many times I watched these games and just got so frustrated. I think we could have done so much better. But losing Quentin, and Contreras was frustrating. Nick Swisher sucking was frustrating. Kong and Thome batting sub .250 was frustrating. Joe Crede finally hitting again, but playing the worst D of his career was frustrating (and then he got hurt). Having to watch Juan Uribe play half the year was frustrating. Just my opinion I guess. Well yeah, but we got in the f***ing playoffs. Don't even say the goal is to win it all, because you can't set a goal like that. The goal is to get to October, and go from there. Yeah, Swisher, Konerko, Thome, etc. played poorly to their standards, but don't forget all the guys who played great- Ramirez, Floyd, Danks, Jenks, Thornton, Quentin, Buehrle, etc.

QUOTE (joesaiditstrue @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:11 PM) He's getting the ball over the plate in at least 90% of his pitches, something Gavin wasn't doing (He fell behind almost every batter he faced) He's thrown about 10% hangers, and yet we are hitting weak ground balls, low pop ups, and swinging through them. The guy has hit 90 at the best. It's embarrassing. QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:11 PM) Our offense needs to be fixed for next year. We cannot function like this. Our offense is built to function from June to August with the temp above 85 degrees with the wind blowing out. Exactly. Go for Brian Roberts first, and then if we can, then go for a guy like Beltre, which seems so impossible considering our lack of big time prospects.

QUOTE (FranktheTank35 @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:08 PM) I think this has been one of the most frustrating seasons I can remember in a while. This and 2006 I guess, but I'll give the edge to this year. Are you serious? Before this year, we were supposed to suck. Then, we played the whole month of September except 2 or 3 games without Quentin, the MVP. Did you really expect another ring?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 04:06 PM) not the last start for gavin floyd this season What?

Ballgame.

Is it over yet?

We've hit like 2 balls hard. Grrrrreat.

Can't wait. 30 MINUTES!

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 6, 2008 -> 12:03 AM) Atleast I was right...? They'll still win 11 or 12 games, which will be good enough to win the AFC East. Have faith!

If the Angels win tonight, the game is at 4. If not, it's at 7.

Tonight- GO ANGELS For the series- GO RED SOX If the Sawx win the series and if we magically come back and win ours, we have homefield in the ALCS.

So... We've won 1 playoff game in 1 playoff appearance in 2 years. The Cubs haven't won a playoff game in 2 playoff appearances in 2 years. We need to go 1 game at a time. We went 1-0 today. We need to go 1-0 tomorrow. If we win tomorrow, and I might be going, I have all the confidence in Mark going game 5 Wednesday in Tampa.

That trade when we got him sucked!!!11 I loved McCarthy!!

QUOTE (rangercal @ Oct 5, 2008 -> 02:17 PM) LOL @ Green Bay losing to the falcons. Bears in 1st! F#$% The doubters! You say that like Atlanta sucks or something. They have a good, if not great, RB, a solid QB, and a group of solid players.

The Falcons beat the Packers which puts us alone in 1st. We go to ATL next week- not going to be an easy game.

Isn't it "Angeles"? GO LA!

I was one of the few who loved the Harrison pick. Thanks for proving me right, Marcus! BTW- the Lions are an awful football team.

That Texas/Missouri game is going to be awesome. Can't wait! MAY THE BEST TEAM WIN

I wish today was a weekday so I could hear Rome say things like "If you're the Cubs, you better be embarrassed. You guys played like a bunch of pathetic morons. And, Man-Ram, you can take my kids to school if you want."

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Oct 5, 2008 -> 02:12 AM) Totally agree,how do you not like JD?He's been solid for the most part for us and he drove in the biggest run for us of the WS in Game 4 after that great at bat to win it for us 1-0,greatest Sox memory for me.How the hell can you not like the guy? Don't forget- he drove in the 1st WS run and the last in 2005.

Kimbo changed the subject when Gus Johnson mentioned "it didn't turn out the way you wanted". What a prick. I kept telling my brother how last time Kimbo fought he barely beat some middle of the road guy and that I think he sucks. Sure enough.....
