Adam Dunn. At least Rios can catch the f***ing ball. Sometimes.

QUOTE (TitoMB @ Jul 31, 2011 -> 04:44 PM) Can they cut these f***ing crap "All-in" commercials? Seriously, it just makes this organization look like a joke. STOP. PLAYING. THEM! This x a hundred thousand BILLION! I honestly think this ALL IN bulls*** has played a small role in the team sucking so bad this year. I bet it made the players feel extra pressure to perform better at the start of the year, which made them struggle. Plus it just sounds f***ing stupid. This isn't a poker hand, it's a f***ing baseball season.

Adam Dunn... Just f***ing retire. There's no need to keep putting yourself through this. Why are there so many red cubs fans at the Cell? Rios you can go ahead and retire too. I can't wait until the motherf***ing Adam Dunn and Alex Rios Appreciation Threads.

Why the f*** did you swing at that CQ?

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jul 31, 2011 -> 04:20 PM) Purely saying that's why posters defended keeping Gordon. Not saying it was the right move. Are you saying that people here on this board didn't want to trade Beckham for Gonzalez only because they didn't think the White Sox would be able to sign Gonzalez long term? I disagree. People here didn't want to trade Beckham because they thought he was a baseball god and a future HOFer.

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Jul 31, 2011 -> 04:07 PM) Agreed, which is why we need to get rid of Ozzie as he'll never admit Walker is not getting the job done. I bet Sandy Alomar Jr or Dave Martinez will. Hopefully next year too.

QUOTE (Princess Dye @ Jul 31, 2011 -> 03:59 PM) To be fair, at that point the Sox didn't look like the kind of team that was going to spend enough to be able to keep AGon long term Now we know that may have been the case, but it was tough to judge back then. Eh... I guess you're right. I guess hindsight is 20/20... or 50/50... or however that stupid f***ing saying goes. Dammit I just want my team to win.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2011 -> 03:49 PM) Wow...good thing we didn't trade him for AGon. Can't hit in the majors if you can't hit fastballs Gordon. You just unearthed a painful memory for me. Imagine Gonzalez in a White Sox uniform right now instead of Dunn. I bet Beckham plus another prospect or 2 would have gotten it done too. But nooooo... Nobody wanted to trade the "Bacon Slayer". My God.

Sometimes I really want Adam Dunn to retire. Like right now.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:17 PM) The rays are trying tio trade Upton. Reports are they are convinced he will never be a major league hitter. Lots of talent but low production No way I want BJ Upton. It's like the Rios experiment all over again. No thanks.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:32 PM) Rios has, what, about $33M remaining on his deal? I would think the Sox would be eating around $20-25M of that, right? 25 Million? You might as well keep him. [flameproof suit on]

QUOTE (Cerbaho-WG @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 06:19 PM) If a graphic designer can scoop the Jackson trade, hell, this might be legit. If the Brewers take Rios, holy hell would that be great. Yeah if the Sox don't have to eat that contract.

I'm feeling good. Things are looking up.

Does Teahen get a standing ovation next time he plays at U.S. Cellular?

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:21 PM) I also like The Office back in 2005. It's lame now. But if someone asked you how you overall how you liked the show, you would probably say you liked it in the past even though it is dated now. I do like Ozzie, but I think his time here may have passed. I'll always have fond memories of him winning here after he's gone.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:17 PM) Why? You loved him in 2005 too. Don't act like you didn't.

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 03:15 PM) Sox lead the WORLD in losses after leading after 6 innings and I said losses not blown saves! Have you seen those Nippon Ham Fighters?

Ah s***. Man I love Oz, but I keep catching myself thinking about Sandy Alomar Jr. or Dave Martinez in a Sox uniform again and it gives me happy feelings.

He's a good guy that just didn't pan out here in Chicago. I wish him nothing but the best - unless he somehow ends up in a Twins uniform.

f***ing Betamit. Why didn't he play like that in a Sox uniform??

QUOTE (Baron @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 02:52 PM) Carlos doesnt want to go to the Phillies it seems He wouldn't be able to stop it either, would he?

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jul 27, 2011 -> 02:39 PM) f*** this divison is bad. That's what is so frustrating about this season. The 2006 team would be close to clinching a playoff berth.

I have a feeling De Aza is here to stay. I say he bats leadoff next year.

It sounds like Danks is on a roll today.

Alex Rios just swallowed his gum.
