Quin

Buster Posey standing at home during the fight is the funniest s***

David Holmberg's long awaited White Sox starter debut

QUOTE (Reddy @ May 29, 2017 -> 09:17 AM) Greg what on earth are white privilege gangs? Some s*** from West Side Story?

QUOTE (Y2JImmy0 @ May 29, 2017 -> 09:36 AM) Greg, this is just not true. I need you to tell me if this is too expensive: Me and 3 buddies just bought tickets to see Sale vs Quintana on Tuesday. We are sitting in row 15 in the OF behind the bullpen. Are these considered good seats? They were $18 a piece. It was cost the 4 of us $20 to park the car on Tuesday night. I will probably spend $60-$70 on food and beer because I feel like it but it doesn't mean I have to. Would you do this? $83? With most of that going to food. Scary times. Believe me.

Dear God, Hansen.

Beginning to feel that you if Haseley isn't there, they're gonna take Kendall. And he's gonna be a divisive pick

Leury, as he bad been tearing up AAA for a while coming into this year and can serve as a utility player.

Wear the collared throwbacks. He'll overthrow everything.

My dad botched this. Parents get home. Ask why I hadn't showered yet. "Gonzalez is pitching really well. Like, really really well." Dad sits down. Yells to my mom "Gonzalez has a perfect game!" Error. Hit. Hit.

That foul ball scared the s*** out of me.

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ May 28, 2017 -> 03:00 PM) It Gonzalez can complete this no hitter, it should really help his trade value.

So, sounds like it was an accident when someone was on their phone. I'm reopening the thread and closing this one. If we closed threads based on their titles, a whole lot more would be closed.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 27, 2017 -> 12:13 PM) Who cares about batting average? The sabes people don't give a flip about BA. Wrong

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ May 26, 2017 -> 02:44 PM) I squinted real hard but this wasn't in green I guess. The Nationals needed some potential bench depth and the Sox had a 36 year old OFer batting about .250 at Charlotte and he wasn't going to make the Big team in Chicago. That's all Nah it was green, I just forgot it.

Laying the groundwork for Robertson!

QUOTE (joejoedairy @ May 26, 2017 -> 12:32 PM) Well, he is hitting 302/472/608 with 14 hrs and an 11% K rate this season. Its not as dominant as his ridiculous Freshman year but still good. That said, 1B don't really go in the top 5. I still want him to be the pick for the Sox. Schwarber was the same. If the Sox think his bat is legit, they should take him.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ May 25, 2017 -> 04:13 PM) Chuck Garfien‏Verified account @ChuckGarfien 13m13 minutes ago Chuck Garfien Retweeted Chuck Garfien Quintana is potentially slotted to pitch Tuesday vs. Sale, but with an off-day, the doubleheader and Covey hurt, that could change. I really wanna see those two go head-to-head

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 26, 2017 -> 11:12 AM) You get bonus points for including a quote of mine, lol. And anyone who posts in the movie thread... It memorializes the greatest smackdown in SoxTalk history

QUOTE (flavum @ May 26, 2017 -> 10:37 AM) If the Sox end up with the worst AL record, I think they get 4th pick next year. That would be acceptable under the rebuild. And to excitement of many, could get them Beer.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 25, 2017 -> 08:09 PM) The difference is that I've learned since chisox.com/WSI to have a thicker skin and not to get a persecution/martyr complex, lol. Everyone has their quirks, it's "just" a message board, and not life or death...it doesn't (or shouldn't) affect our sense of self-worth or families or anything really meaningful, since it's all in good fun and SHOULD be for entertainment purposes only. For example, this year I've learned: 1) Dick Allen really isn't as bad as I thought 2) I never should have listened to Northside about Kevan Smith 3) This board is a lot more conservative/moderate than most like Rabbit tend to believe 4) As well as Rabbit writes about baseball, he's equally infuriating talking about anything non-baseball related 5) Fathom will never change, nor will Greg (both in mostly good ways!!) 6) Southsider2K5 and Witesoxfan and Heads22 remain the 3 mods "everyone would most like to have a beer with" 7) KYyle having an upper and lower case Y in his name is still annoying to the English/grammar side...but he knows more than everyone I grew up with combined about Marvel Comics 8) ElRockin is the best baseball fan in White Sox history 9) The rebuild has really lightened the mood around here and it's easier for people to get along in terms of baseball discussions, but definitely not politics...cool to see some old posters come back, too...wish Scenario hadn't disappeared, and Cubano so we could discuss Moncada/Robert/Victor Mesa Jr. 10) Balta is doing the sane thing by not overreacting to every political development like some of us since NOV 8 11) J4L is still shook up that Schwarber's legend is on the wane, but now he can annoy us with LeBron GOAT talk again (Warriors in 6, book it baby!) Bless you for having a sense of humor about this. Some much needed levity on this board.

So, should a reporter be allowed to punch him for unsatisfactory answers?

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 25, 2017 -> 10:32 PM) No, it was films of the protests at MU in the library where people were harassed while studying. Turns out some of them marched earlier in the night and they still got reamed for not declaring their white privilege. How bout, "Say please." Or hand out Halloween candy to those who agree to declare their "white privilege" in front of the gangs. Yeah, no. I understand that you get your information from Rush, but that didn't happen. And if it did, it'd have been one small instance because I can't remember. There was no Mad Max roving gang of social justice.

QUOTE (greg775 @ May 25, 2017 -> 03:37 PM) This is hilarious and makes my point for me. They might as well close the doors of the Hall forever to pitchers. No more players are getting in. These starters aren't even going to sniff 200 wins. And the relievers won't be resilient enough. lol no it doesn't

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ May 25, 2017 -> 01:48 PM) As in previous years, we will be publishing previews of prospects that seem to be real possibilities for the Sox to pick. First up this year is speedy Vanderbilt CF Jeren Kendall. Get to know this prospect. Pick 11 for Jeren? Yes or no? If Haseley is off the board, I'd be fine with Kendall as an underslot.

QUOTE (bmags @ May 25, 2017 -> 09:30 AM) If he wants, I'm sure caulfield could give him a list of mods. Caulfield, I like you, but this got me.
