Sox killer Span

I hate the f***ing Twins.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Jul 27, 2012 -> 10:49 PM) If they could have just got one in Detroit, it would be 3 1/2. I hope that sweep doesn't come back to haunt them, but back in the lead is sweet. It still gotta be a bit disheartening to Tiger fans to see their club behind the White Sox after the sweep in less than a week, lol. Up a 1 1/2 on Monday, down 1 1/2 on Friday.

1 1/2 games up on Detoilet

Wow, reading some of these posts would make you think the Bulls had absolutely no shot at a title the last couple of years, yeesh.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 25, 2012 -> 07:30 AM) I love this thread. This GO TRIBE!!!

Gotta be impressed with the way these guys bounced back from that horrible series vs Detroit, yeah it's the Twins but a few SoxTalkers were saying we wouldn't sniff 1st again...a series later we're back in 1st b*tches!

QUOTE (northside sawx @ Jul 21, 2012 -> 01:21 PM) Look for a guy wearing a gas mask and kevlar, dressed in all black. And aim for the head Again, it's a dark movie theater, (and with tear gas set off) how do you know he's not a SWAT member for example?

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jul 20, 2012 -> 06:42 PM) How could this have gotten any worse? Pretty easy, in a dark theater with all the confusion and chaos, if there are 5 or 6 people returning fire, more people would've gotten shot, cops don't know exactly how many gunmen are there, armed citizens could easily be mistaken as the criminals, they can get shot. It's not like Holmes had a sign on him saying "bad guy". And If you're in the theater and you have a gun and try to fight back and you see someone else with a gun, are you gonna ask him if he's a good guy or a bad guy, how would you know for sure he's not with the criminal? There were two gunmen at Columbine, it's not always one guy.

QUOTE (Wanne @ Jul 20, 2012 -> 03:55 PM) What a terrible, terrible tragedy. Not trying to turn politically...but I'm sure the Gun Control crowd will run with this one. What's strange is I just watched Bowling for Columbine the other night for the first time...America's fascination with guns and their ready availability. As a staunch supporter of the 2nd Amendment and NRA...and a conceal carry person myself, I'm just curious to see the spike in CCW permits in Colorado now in the wake of this event. We as a country, have been programmed to live in fear and violence is second nature anymore. I'm just surprised there were no CCW carriers in the crowd. If it was AZ I'd venture to say he probably would have had at least 5-6 people returning fire... The sheer senselessness of things like this amaze me... and making an already terrible situation much much worse.

The Tigers are hot right now, they'll cool off, just need to play good defense and pitch well but it should be an interesting race the rest of the way.

The f*** is wrong with world...this just totally sucks

QUOTE (Jake @ Jul 19, 2012 -> 01:09 PM) MJ was arrogant. Moreso, however, he was competitive and that's what drew people to him. They asked LeBron before the Finals, "what if you lose again?" LeBron's response was along the lines of, "as long as we gave it our all I'll be okay." This is a reasonable response since LeBron is a millionaire and basketball is just a game...but can you imagine Michael Jordan saying that? Michael Jordan refused to lose a f***ing practice! While he was a resilient character as you must be to stick around that long in the league, before the fact there was no acceptance of losing. This is the kind of killer instinct that some people see in Kobe...makes me think of the "passing the torch" stuff from Kobe to Derrick early this season. Kobe's response? "I'm not passing s***" As to this specific situation...when LeBron gets to his 3rd, 4th, 5th championship...he can start making some more outlandish claims about how many he'll win. People are imagining how a super team in LA could overthrow them this year or how a couple years down the line Wade will be too old or this or that scenario could stop them from winning....this is why 6 championships is amazing. People get old, get hurt, players rearrange, new talent arrives, all that and STILL you win? That's pretty f***in' cool. If the Heat can do all that, that will be pretty impressive. Until they've done something more than what a team like the 2011 Dallas Mavericks did, they should probably just focus on next season (a season in which they seem to be the favorite) Obviously I don't know LeBron personally but he doesn't strike me as obscenely driven like MJ or Kobe. I could see James winning 2 or 3 titles and that is spectacular but he ain't sniffing not 6, not 7, not 8... Too many factors like you said, LeBron would have to be driven like a madman to keep that edge you need to keep winning, you have to work on your game as you age and lose athleticism (why James doesn't have an insane post up game is beyond me). If he does have that killer mentality, he could very well go on a crazy championship run but even MJ took time off of the first threepeat because he felt drained. Luckily for us, Rose will be hitting his prime as LBJ will be in his decline.
