  1. I once heard it described this way....the White Sox replaced Jose Valentin, a guy who would run through a wall for his teammates, at SS with Royce Clayton, a guy who would complain "who put this wall here?!?"
  2. You have been reported to Christine O'Reilly.
  3. Yes, Ralph Garr. Thank you. My apologies for mis-nicknaming Mr Washington.
  4. As the OP I'd like to quote Terence Mann......There are rules here? No, there are no rules here.
  5. That was the oddest feeling leaving the stadium that night. Even though the Sox won the game, the mood among the fans was deflating.
  6. Oops....I hope I didn't distract Getzy from his job of adding guys to add to this list.
  7. I was in the upper deck at that Paniagua game....I treat him as more of an urban legend. I almost bought his game worn jersey at Soxfest just to see the reaction when I wore it to a game, but it was more than $5.
  8. I just didn't like him as a player, in interviews, as a coach with the Cubbies. I just thought the guy was hugely overrated and never cared for him.
  9. You can do an honorable mentions section like @Bob Sacamano.....and I see Bob's additional list keeps growing, haha.
  10. Can we throw in Jon, running in quick sand, Jay?
  11. Every game I attended in person with Joey Cora in a White Sox uniform....every one....he did something either stupid or made an error at a key time in the game or failed miserably at the plate. I'm more of a Durham/Iguchi/Bernazard guy myself. Also loved Jorge Orta. But I will not argue with you that I am one of the best.
  12. I believe his nickname was The Road Runner? I seem to remember Harry or Jimmy saying meep meep when he ran down the 1B line. Anyway, I saw in his obituary from 2020 that he was a 5 tool OF!!
  13. Got a bunch of daisy dukes from Temu on my feed
  14. Name your personal top 10 and all is forgiven
  15. I maybe should have just automatically included Wells and Swisher on a master list and had people name 8 more.
  16. KEEP BRETT LILLIBRIDGE OUT OF YOUR F....ING MOUTH!!!!!
  17. He sucked as a White Sox and for that season much like Cookie Monster.....that's good enough for me. Plus every interview I saw with him as a White Sox player, he was a colossal prick. But that's just me.
  18. Hat tip to @dohnutfor the idea to help us forget this group of current losers by remembering past losers. List 10 White Sox players who you personally disliked the most. I will start with the 10 guys who popped quickly into my head and I am sure that I have missed some good ones so I look forward to other Soxtalker's Lists. Mine, in no particular order: Brett Lawrie Jeff Samardzija Joey Cora Nick Swisher Royce Clayton Rob Dibble Kevin Youkilis Billy Koch David Wells Jamie Navarro Sorry to make it 11 but I remembered who I hated most recently and didn't want to remove any of the deserving above....AJ Pollock
  19. Sounds like how I have handled most White Sox games lately.
  20. It'll be like having a 5th starter go every game. I still recommend bringing back Bryan Shaw and using him as the opener every day...Pedro is going to use him eventually so just get it over with early.
  21. Just a little something to brighten your day...and yes Swisher is Top 5
  22. Any free agents available from the California Penal League?
