QUOTE (Y2HH @ May 20, 2011 -> 09:26 PM) Yes, what a crappy decision to go with Crain. That should have been the case to begin the inning.

Great pitching by Crain. Crappy managing by Ozzie.

One more out Crain.

So Ozzie thought that Thornton was gonna face two lefties, instead, surprise, he faces one and fails to get any righties out.

Wow...we're screwed.

Thornton's missing the zone again...sigh.

How many infield popups is this team going to hit?

This is an actual condition?

Uribe flashing the leather.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ May 20, 2011 -> 04:38 PM) I was with you up until that part. I never said he was as valuable, I said he was near. And there are advanced metrics to back this. Gasol's been worth 11+ win shares in the past three seasons with LA. His PER is around 22-23. Pippen has a very similar stretch during the 6 championships, although he spread that out over 8 years.

Kobe doesn't win anything without Shaq or Gasol. MJ needed Scottie, but I think it's pretty evident that Shaq is a more dominant player than Scottie and that the Gasol from the past three years is nearly as valuable as Pippen. And there's that stat of MJ being 6-0 in the NBA Finals.

QUOTE (bigruss22 @ May 20, 2011 -> 01:35 PM) As long as JR is the owner, loyalty/history will be a huge deal to the organization (for better or for worse). Dwyane Wade disagrees with JR's supposed loyalty.

When I first saw the thread title, I thought J4L made the thread to talk about how the Sox will recognize that stud Clayton Kershaw and possibly somebody else. Now that would have been an entertaining premise for a thread.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 20, 2011 -> 11:10 AM) You didn't pick up Shaq's CD? At least Shaq was good at basketball. Boozer crossing guys over? Going hard on offense? Right.

Very accurate depiction of Bosh.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 19, 2011 -> 01:44 AM) What's most impressive is that they weathered the 0-6 start (thanks partially to the White Sox breathing life into them with that comeback win we gave away), they've been missing Longoria for most of the season, they're starting Brignac/Johnson at SS (who would both fit better on the Twins' AAA team), they lost their predicted DH in Manny Ramirez right off the bat and Jaso/catchers haven't made as much of a contribution as in the past. Not to mention that Fuld's been in a 3 week slump after his fantastic play to start the season. Pitching, pitching, pitching. And obviously the right call not to sign Soriano, the Yankees can absorb that loss, though, just like the Red Sox with Jenks. And Desmond Jennings isn't very far away at all, he just might end up having a better season than Crawford at 1/100th the cost. Fuld's slump is no accident. The guy's not that good.

I'm like "Baby are you down down down down down?" kind of down on this. Although the term "stud" to describe Uribe and Garland is ummm...yeah.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 19, 2011 -> 08:37 AM) I think the site should permanently ignore "Real". You can't ignore the ones who keep it "Real" dude, then you're no longer in reality!

Boozer's attempt at rap...lol http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6WciYMobKQY

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ May 19, 2011 -> 10:22 PM) greg, stop saying "baby." lol. Hey, baby is a hip word, just ask that Justin Bieber kid.

8 back, only 5 games under. The Teahen curse is GONE! For now.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 19, 2011 -> 05:07 PM) Morneau hit his 2nd HR, Plouffe has 3 RBI, Blackburn gave up 1 run, and the Twins dropped 10 on the A's today. Looks like Tyson Ross started then was almost immediately pulled, injury I'd guess. Ross has some funky mechanics. I'm a bit scared of the Twins coming back to life. That team has had everything go wrong, they're not exactly untalented.

Nice outing for Sale so far.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ May 19, 2011 -> 08:08 PM) Maybe we are turning things around. f***ing hope, it was so much simpler when I was sure they were done. It's the curse of Teahen.
