Unless this radar gun is off, Buehrle is throwing WELL below his usual velocity of 85-87 mph. I'm seeing 80mph fastballs and looping sliders in the 70s.

QUOTE (son of a rude @ Sep 21, 2009 -> 12:16 AM) post some pics with your shirt off so i can tell if it was you i saw wearing the shirt from two posts above

Black tshirt, eh? Wasn't this the one? If so, that was definitely you!

HAHA, YES! Game over!

Great, now run more run then kick on the third down. Don't need any slippery hands or feet botching the play.

Go do your thing now Cutler.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 05:49 PM) I can think of no better honor for our soldiers than a playing surface that is a complete piece of s***. Thanks, Park District. U2 needed their giant space ship contraption!

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 04:20 PM) The field is crap as usual. No one else is slipping. Olsen got excited, forgot how to move his feet, and looked like an idiot in the endzone.

QUOTE (Stocking @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 03:48 PM) lol. f***ing Wise He's just being aggressive! Guillen loves that!

QUOTE (daa84 @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 03:46 PM) when you blitz everyone, you must at least get to the qb and make him move around Sure, but what good is it when you go full speed, the qb does a simple juke, you fly by, and he still has time to make a completion? Ben may be mobile in comparison with other qb's, but he's not Vick quick. I'd understand if the qb was quick and you're just trying to anticipate his moves.

Few things irritate me more than a Bears defender running full speed at a player, and that person just moving slightly and our guy running right past them. Ben just moved a foot to his left. You'd think playing football for such a long time they'd teach these guys about centering up the defender is more important than speed alone. Especially when it's a quarterback back peddling out of the pocket.

QUOTE (Jenksy Cat @ Sep 20, 2009 -> 03:36 PM) catch the f***ing ball olsen. 2nd god damn time in 2 weeks he's cost us a drive Nothing more obvious than someone afraid to take a hit. He doesn't quite understand the idea that you can either move your feet, or catch the ball, can't do it at the same time.

Awesome. Glad we had a player who probably hasn't bunted in game since God knows when give up two strikes, with two on, no outs, and in the 4TH INNING! This is just terrible.

Are you f***ing kidding me with having Flowers bunt?

I don't have video to compare with, but does Peavy's delivery seem different to anyone else? When I first watched him this inning what instantly stood out was his release point, and how it appeared to be at a lower plane than what I've been accustomed to seeing.

QUOTE (ChiSox420* @ Sep 19, 2009 -> 02:39 PM) Nix 2b Beckham 3b Pierzynski c Konerko 1b Ramirez ss Dye rf Quentin lf Rios cf Flowers DH 2010 here we come! I'd like to see Dye batting 7th or 8th before this season is done. I know 9th is unrealistic, if only for his 'veteran pride,' but I'd like to see him continue to look terrible and embarrass himself. If we're going to play him consistently, despite his inability to field or hit (and him having NO place in our future plans), may as well get some comedy out of it.

QUOTE (beck72 @ Sep 19, 2009 -> 02:17 PM) Two guys who should pitch in late inning set up should be Carrasco and Dan Hudson. With the sox bringing back Freddy, Hudson would be a good late inning option. I see Hudson as a Philip Hughes type of pitcher who could come in, air it out for one, perhaps two innings, and if a starting pitcher's arm falls off/is ineffective he could be available to replace him. I've always been one to believe if a starting pitcher prospect isn't starting for the majors he should be in the minors, but really, it's not as if there are other options for our bullpen. Jenks just isn't worth his salary.

QUOTE (son of a rude @ Sep 19, 2009 -> 12:15 AM) Tyler Perry is a comedic genius. My tivo is filled up with Tyler Perry's House of Payne and meet the browns (need to make room for the cleveland show). kind of pisses me off when the sox are on WCIU because i dont get to watch house of payne. anybody else really enjoy his shows? Are you a brother by any chance? I've never liked his shows, yet again, I don't like most sitcoms.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 08:54 PM) You'd almost wish Jermaine would have said he had a sore back so he wouldn't have to play at all this month. I'd rather have Danks up here even if he's not ready. All he had to do was poke a hit there, any hit. Wow. No, I'd rather have Dye doing exactly what he's doing now, and that's just look terrible and fall apart in front of everyone. That way, there's no doubt about bringing him back in ANY form (such as DH). It's team for his ass to go somewhere else.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 08:52 PM) How are 2003 Konerko and 2009 Rios not similar? Both had seasons that were completely outliers to their normal stats. I know you werent here in 2002, but most people wanted to give away Konerko for free on this board. I wanted Konerko traded to the Dodgers for some combination of Mota, and Miller or Jackson.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 08:47 PM) kotsay has been so clutch. shame we got nothing behind him. Then again, the law of averages says Jermaine is f***ING DUE! Everything this guy hits, atleast the games I watch, seem to be line drives across the field. He's like Ross Gload's doppelganger. His line drive percentage rate must be ridiculous compared to league average. /strikeout DEAD!

YES, JUST THE OPPORTUNITY i WAS LOOKING FOR! Let's see Dye embarrass himself in a pivotal moment.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 08:28 PM) I believe more and more everyday that the Rios move will be looked back upon as one of the 3 worst personnel moves in White Sox history someday. Rios needs this season to end quickly. If there's onesaving grace for him it's he can't possibly start any worse next season (can he?). Additionally, his woeful numbers happened during a stretch where the team collectively played themselves out of contention. Also, even if we lose this game, I'd like to see Dye get up to the plate one more time. I enjoy his failures.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Sep 17, 2009 -> 03:49 AM) I had no idea you were black J4L. Nice work brotha. You actually look like KW's son alot in that pic. I suddenly hate Jordan4life.

QUOTE (smalls2598 @ Sep 16, 2009 -> 03:59 PM) Hell yea. Get home from school, eat dinner, then ride bikes to rent a video game. And if it sucked, then head back and say that it didn't work and get something else. Then stay up all Friday and Saturday night playing. Ahh, the good ole days.... Or when you'd hide a video game somewhere in the store if you didn't have the money at the time. I was good for that.
