Game 2 is less than 24 hours away, so there's that.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:39 PM) I don't know what's hard to understand here. Because he's our ace DOES NOT mean he's immune from criticism because he pitches a poor game. Just as I'm not implying this one game erases his already stellar season. I've said this start he pitched poorly behind a nice offensive effort. Did he not? And I'm worried about any potential matchups against Oakland or Boston with Buehlre on the mound. Do you believe this isn't justified? Why is it following every win someone can point out how our team is destined for greatness, but following a defeat, no one can criticize any facet of our ballclub without hearing someone use the same rhetoric (best record in baseball, etc). you can criticize fine, what most have trouble with (including me) are the ones that never say anything positive, who seem to enjoy criticizing. Remember the "doubles" thread a few months ago? Criticiziing is fine, alot of times it's deserved, but sometimes people gotta take some time out and smell the roses. THis is as positive a year as we're gonna get.

God the NFL sucks, how many ego's can one league handle?

QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:03 PM) Carted off the field he looked pissed, like all that work just went to s***. .......we'll see

QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:01 PM) He completed a pass to avoid and sack then he started limping off. Trainers came out, he's just laying on the ground, injury timeout. i f***ing said earlier today, that he was gonna get hurt and the bears would be drafting a 1st round quaterback again

QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 08:00 PM) Rex is hurt f*** f*** f*** asdfj;laksjdf;gkjgf;lkjasdf what's going on?

QUOTE(CYGarland @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:54 PM) Can't win every game 2-1 i suppose. well, we'll see if the offense can return the favor to the pitching staff and pick them up since this entire week all that's been there is pitching.

Well today's sure been out of the ordinary. The offense shows up, pitching doesn't. oh well.

QUOTE(GBlum27 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:27 PM) What a pick by Tillman! turn on the damn sox game!

*everyone points and laughs

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 06:15 PM) Yes Hawk, they booed Carl because he doesn't have success against Wells... well that one went way over your head

I got to play the game at my friends house today, really unimpressed. The passing thing is more of a chore than fun. oh well

bears preseason games = instead of commercials during the sox game

if i was another team's fan, i'd probably hate hawk too if i had to listen to him. He appeals to sox fans and sox fans only

QUOTE(3E8 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 02:08 PM) Who wants to camp out with me? i'll be there

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 01:49 PM) season ticket holders should get first pass at lower bowl, then they will open it up to the public. speaking of which, does anyone have any idea when they'll be releasing them to the public? I'm trying to remember what happened in 03, i seem to remember middle of september, they had the release.

Donde esta la biblioteca?

you don't need no fancy book learnin congrats

QUOTE(Yossarian @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:52 PM) NL hitters may be fooled for a while, but they too will figure him out and the ball will then go flying out of the park again. the problem with shingo this year wasn't JUST that they figured him out. He couldn't get his breaking ball over the plate.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:55 PM) If I need a cheap laugh, I watch Reno 911!. ^ really the only show i'm upset if i miss a new epsiode.

QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:42 PM) When I say this, I get bashed cause I'm the board pessimist. However, it's exactly the point I've been trying to make, and everyone planning the postseason roster and when to start benching starters is getting a little ahead of themselves. One good thing is that the A's and Angels have a lot more games against each other this season, so it would make the wild card lead even more for the Sox (in the extreme circumstance that the Indians were to catch the White Sox). i'm sorry, but the indians are not going to catch us. Take a breather and enjoy this, for once we don't have someone breathing down our necks.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 12:18 PM) Yeah, because all we need is another reason to laugh when they call it the Big 10. How would they fit a #12 into their logo? #11 has worked out all right, but i mean, yeesh that's a crooked number. meh. the big 10 doesnt have 10 teams now, so what's the difference of adding one more? They can call it The Big 12: The Duece And oh yeah, the big 10 does have 10 teams in baseball
