Sox don't win this one, I'm not making another Game Thread in September. Paulie hits and the audience applauds Though he's got a new 'stache he hasn't lost his style Paulie don't you slowdown now Don't give a game away for free, woah AJ is a force at Comiskey Park But he always annoys teams with style So he's waiting out behind the plate He's going to put frustration on Scherzer's face for free, for free This team's got heart Floyd's got to do his part I've got a tab at Comiskey Park Tonight that's where I'll be, I'll be Sale, he knows he's such a credit to the game But Verlander grabs the headlines every time Pennant chases are so much fun In black and white sox for everyone to see, woah Wise trying just to get to second base And he'll steal it when Robin gives the sign, woah He'll spark a rally and show the team ain't dead The inning isn't over yet you see, you see De Aza is the spark Rios has got to hit the ball far I've got a tab at Comiskey Park Tonight that's where I'll be, I'll be Tell the Robin it needs to end in Comiskey Park While the fans fill the stands and cheer The team's still got first place And they control their own fate you see, you see A win tonight would be a start They've got to hit Scherzer hard I've got a tab at Comiskey Park Tonight that's where I'll be, I'll be ------------------------------------------- Reed'll have to learn to pace himself Pressure He can dominate like everybody else Pressure The Sox have only had to run so far, so good But they will come to a place Where the only thing they feel Are wins and losses in their face And they'll have to deal with pressure We wanted to see Kenny unemployed Pressure But that notion he destroyed Pressure Peavy turned the race into a crusade Now here he is, angry faced And Coop with the advice There are stars left to face And he'll be able to handle pressure Dunn is a true outcome machine Strike one, strike two, how far will the ball go? All their life is CSN 35th Street What does it mean? I'll tell you what it means Pressure Pressure Alexei you're at the plate alone Pressure But we know he'll bring men home Pressure I'm sure you have some cosmic rationale But here you are, in the ninth Two men out and three men on Nowhere to look but inside Where we all respond to pressure Pressure All your life is Chicago Sun-Times Cowley wrote s***, what does it mean? Pressure! I'm sure you have some cosmic rationale But here you are, in the race And your veteran advice You have no in front, leading the chase And the Tigers cannot handle pressure The pressure! Pressure! 1, 2, 3, 4, pressure! ------------------------------------------- Now, after the opening act. IN THIS CORNER 9-9 with the 4.55 ERA THE TIGER TAMER FROM THE SOUTHSIDE GAAAVIIIIIN FLOOOOOOYD AND IN THIS CORNER 15-6 and the 3.85 ERA THE MAN WITH f***ED UP EYES Max Scherzer SOX LOST ON HOMERS TO THE TIGERS LAST GAME. IT SUCKED. BUT WHO GIVES A DAMN? THAT'S THE PAST. AND THEY'RE STILL UP TWO GAMES. SO, WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN? ARE THEY GONNA LET THE TIGERS ROLL INTO TOWN AND LEAVE UNSCATHED? HELL f***ING NO. ARE THEY ABOUT TO BURY THE TIGERS? YES. BECAUSE f*** ALL THE HATERS. THIS. IS. WHITE SOX. BASEBALL. AND NOW, FOR YOUR CHICAGO WHITE SOX.

LETS GET IT GOING

Gordon wants it bad.

Wait, when my MLB.tv went down we were leading 2-0. What happened?

Hot For Teacher better be someones at bat song now.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 10:23 PM) They play the two songs back and forth every game, just fyi. I was at the game on Saturday and heard Your Love at least twice. I almost never hear it before the AB. I hear it after he gets a hit though.

They played Your Love for Gordo instead of Seek & Destroy of Holy Wars. Good things happened.

They're playing Your Love for Gordo again. Good things happen when they do.

HELL YES!

Flapship.com is down?

Floyd is going to dominate September.

QUOTE (knightni @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 03:14 AM) How many lefties can the Sox have in their rotation? RHP: Peavy, Floyd, Axelrod, Castro, Humber LHP: Danks, Liriano, Sale, Quintana, Santiago Those are your candidates currently on the Sox roster. Wouldn't be shocked to see Quintana or Santiago go the way of BMac. Nor would I be shocked to see Peavy or Liriano resigned. Or Floyd traded. Or Humber as a throw in. Or Danks traded. It's gonna be an interesting offseason.

Whenever Lillian makes a thread about replacing someone, they do better.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Sep 3, 2012 -> 02:37 AM) Y'all ready for this s***? Cause it's the yearly thread and f*** all this lying around. Greg: Let it go. War's over, man. Verlander dropped the big one. Quin: What? Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Heat bombed Pearl Harbor and almost beat the Sox in the World Series? Hell no! Balta: [to SS2k5] Heat? SS2k5: Forget it, he's rolling. Quin: And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough...The tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go! Caulfield: You know that that phrase was coined by Joseph P. Kennedy, John F. Kennedy's father. Interesting factoid about that...[goes on for five paragraphs about the Kennedy family and how their policies effected China.] [Quin runs out, alone; then returns] Quin: What the f*** happened to the SoxTalk I used to know? Where's the spirit? Where's the guts, huh? This could be the greatest night of our lives, but you're gonna let it be the worst. "Ooh, we're afraid to go with you Quin, we might get in trouble." Well just kiss my ass from now on! Not me! I'm not gonna take this. Verlander, he's a dead man! Cabrera, dead! Fielder... J4L: Dead! Also, one fat motherf***er. Quin's right. Psychotic... but absolutely right. We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons, but that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all in. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part! Jason: We're just the guys to do it. Kyyle: [stands up] Yeah, I agree. Let's go get 'em. SoxAce: Let's do it. Quin: [shouting] "Let's do it"! The above was a parody and in no way meant to be taken seriously. IN THIS CORNER AT 2-1 WITH A 3.91 ERA, THE PIMP WITH THE SCREWBALL HECTOOOOOOR SANTIAAAAAGOOOO And in this corner, some dude from the Twins. Man, I never heard of him before, but f*** that guy. SOX FELL TO THE LEAGUE LEADERS IN WEIGHT LAST GAME. IT WAS s***. THIS WEEKEND WAS s***. BUT WHO GIVES A f***? SO WAS THE ROYALS SERIES THEN THEY KICKED THE YANKEES COLLECTIVELY OVERPAID ASSES. SO, WHAT'S GONNA HAPPEN? ARE THEY GONNA LIE DOWN AND LET THE SEASON BE OVER? HELL f***ING NO. ARE THEY ABOUT TO MAKE A PUSH TO GLORY? YES. BECAUSE f*** ALL THE HATERS. THIS. IS. WHITE SOX. BASEBALL. AND NOW, FOR YOUR CHICAGO WHITE SOX. (Play the following to videos at the same time, scroll to 0:28 for the second video).

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 6, 2012 -> 03:44 PM) If we didn't take steps to stop it? It would be a huge number. FWIW, we don't allow unfiltered sign ups either. We review each one on google to see if their email or IP address shows up in any known databases which track spammers. I'd say at least half of our new sign ups are spammers which we delete, and never are able to spam the board. As already said, this is very appreciated. The only other forum I'v been at for an extended period of time (I've learned the best way for a forum to thrive is an off topic section, like SLaM), well, we got hit HARD by spammers. I appreciate the work.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Sep 6, 2012 -> 10:34 PM) When I was checking out the motownsports forum. I got a good laugh at these comments. Stupid off days. White Sox get Mendoza, Chen and Guthrie Reply The Tigers went 0-3 trying to run through that gauntlet. They are quite entertaining to observe.

QUOTE (Reddy @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 09:45 PM) i'm ignorant here... but what exactly is involved in quidditch? besides flying on brooms. but you say you're doing practice and working out "a bit"... you're probably just not doing enough. you have to be operating under a calorie deficit in order to drop weight. do you know your calorie intake vs calories burned? that's an easy way to figure out the problem. but there's another way to help lose weight: your diet. what does "eating healthier" mean? what's a typical days worth of meals? Basically take basketball, rugby, and dodgeball. Now throw in the brooms. But the main thing is, there are no timeouts (hockey style subs) and I'm one of only two keepers (goalies) on my team, so we're both in the game 95% of the time for 35 minutes of running, tackling, etc. But my diet also got changed to lots of more fish and chicken instead of beef stuff, basically removed pop and switched in water. But yeah, a typical day of food would be: Apple & water (breakfast), roast turkey sandwich + mashed potatoes & water, then something like tilapia, roasted potatoes, and broccoli for dinner. I mean, people are saying I look slimmer, so I could just be building muscle at a similar rate, because various leg injuries (knee, cleat to shin, and cut on foot) have kept me from running as much. Hence the swimming (which kicked my ass).

QUOTE (BobDylan @ Sep 6, 2012 -> 08:21 PM) Why did you ignore what I was really saying and jump to defense against a statement that really meant nothing? Seems the status-quo hasn't changed around here. It's been dead for a few years now and it's in the same boring state it was when I left two years ago. But like I was saying, message boards are meant to have new threads. New threads keep s*** interesting, and even though it may look "messy," it encourages participation and discussion. You notice the growth of this place has been stagnant for years? Before you answer that question, it was rhetorical. The userbase very well could be growing. But the discussion isn't. By just looking around I can tell this place is in a never ending loop, forever caught in a self-created meme and circle-jerk. Go Bears. PHT is dead? And you sir, need a cup of tea or something.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 6, 2012 -> 01:35 PM) Yes.

HALLELUJAH! AJ is gonna go on a tear.
