QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Aug 16, 2015 -> 04:39 AM) you should see vin scully get excited about the dodgers. he's the consummnate pro, but he is a homer. I think announcers should be homers. But Hawk is the biggest one in baseball, possibly sports. To say he's not a homer is asinine.

Eddy Alvarez bless us with your strength.

QUOTE (daa84 @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 08:29 PM) 3 more times on base with a SB for Alvarez. Can't stop won't stop

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 11:45 PM) DJ better watch it. If anybody notices he could get the boot. It doesn't work except for announcers that are legends. Harry Caray had a Sox sidekick fired once cause he and the guy spent a rain delay trashing the team. They didn't blame Harry; they canned the sidekick after the season. Kudos to DJ but DJs are a dime a dozen. If the team gets mad he'll be shown the door.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 11:37 PM) It's the definition of homer. Hawk CRITICIZES the team he works for. He did it again tonight. Why can't you guys admit NOBODY else in baseball does that??? He bites the hand that feeds him and it's GREAT. The Royals announcers like most mock the opposing team as part of their biting commentary. The Royals can NEVER do any wrong and it's sickening. Hawk is different! Well for starters, DJ does it way more than Hawk. That's just in town. The Royals also have the second worse broadcaster in baseball, Rex Hudler. (The worst is Tim McCarver)

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 09:34 PM) Nice blue font Cubs fan

Everyone keep the name calling and insult flinging to a minimum in this thread. Thank you.

If you guys didn't see, LeBron is putting 1100 Akron kids through college at the University of Akron. The tuition cost would be roughly $41.3M. It's not out of pocket supposedly (he has an agreement with the school) but DAMN if that isn't amazing thing by him. I'll always sports-hate him, but holy s*** he really is an amazing person.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 09:16 PM) Too young, defense isn't great, bullpen isn't as good as you think. Starting pitching isn't that good either. I mean I know what the pitching stats say about them but they're not battle tested. Offense streaky , long way to go . Pitcher's figuring out Bryant somewhat , might do the same with Schwarber. How dare you. Bryant and Schwarber are going to be 1-2 in MVP voting from now until 2035.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 09:02 PM) Or when they got Rizzo for trash. Probably the biggest gift trade in baseball history.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 07:41 PM) That one isn't although I don't think it's complete. It follows official descriptions of the event. That said, def. not official. That trailer shows Spidey. All reports are that Spidey was a no-show in the trailer.

Sox grand slam coming this inning.

lol

No challenge? Seriously? It looked like he might have gotten the shin.

mother f***er

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 07:17 PM) There are only phone captures so far but there was a teaser for The Civil War premiered at a Disney event today. It's a fake trailer. Uses clips from other films + Marvel video games.

lol at Castro and Bryant

The f*** was that?

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 15, 2015 -> 02:32 PM) How come it seems half our fan base hates our legendary broadcaster? Any team that has a legend seems to embrace their legendary broadcaster but not White Sox fans. Hawk is entertaining, his voice is not grating, he's creative, he's funny, he actually blasts the team that writes his checks (or at least has a great say in his hiring) on occasion unlike all other broadcast crews, he doesn't mock the opponent like other teams crews, he tells good stories, he has good catchphrases but doesn't overuse them (except KC special for some reason). He's great. Why do some people want a plastic, Wink Martendale-voiced homer? You do realize that Hawk is THE homer in baseball. Sometimes I love it, sometimes I hate it but he is the biggest homer ever.

Ultimate career suicide

Q throws a perfect game.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Aug 14, 2015 -> 07:49 PM) Jordan Guerrero is kind of a legit dude. Would love to see a scouting report of what his repertoire is. If Stoltz still scouting down in the Carolina League these days? Future Sox's comp would be Quintana.

Jesus Avi. Don't swing on the first pitch.
