on around the horn yesterday he said the white sox were the best team in baseball, and the other guy asked if that was some home cooking and he said no because white sox fans hate me..

 

i say f*** off Jay

:thumbsdownsmilie

 

Jay don't bother heaping any praise this way. We don't want your horses***.

i still hate him but he at least recognized us as the best team

Figures.. There are going to be alot of people going to be jumping on the Sox Bandwagon if they win this year.

Keep kissing scrub ass JM

Piss off, Moron.

In the Sun-Times you say they're lucky and cheap, but on ESPN you say they're the best team in baseball???

Your crap writing is on the Internet, so any viewers of Around The Horn who care can see your real opinion of the Sox.

You stupid hack phony.

Did I mention "piss off"?

You guys need to read this.....

I'm a journalist. You guys are fans. Therefore, I have credibility and you don't.

So why are you writing for something called a media monitor when you aren't a credible media person?

You are a hack paper seller, in the esteemed tradition of Freddie Lounds. As such, you repressent a very poor example of 'credible':

 

1. Capable of being believed; plausible.

2. Worthy of confidence; reliable.

 

Your bias and low brow pot-stirring is best described by the word 'unbelievable'.

Dodgers are still the best team in baseball, but the SOx are definately playing well. Here's to having the Sox as the 2nd quickest team to double digit wins :cheers

 

Now keep those wins a coming :headbang

We got series against Detoilet and KC coming up. We should ( I emphasize SHOULD ) have no trouble beating up on these sissies.

Nah, KC has been actually decent and Detroit has a very good offense. One game at a time Nuke, one game at a time.

 

The Sox have had trouble with these type of mathcups the past few years so I ain't doing anything but hoping the Sox play good baseball.

How do I say this nicely?

 

These "sissy games" will tell you what kind of team we REALLY have. The Sox always seem to play to their level of competition. That means they will suck against the suckwads... UNLESS the message really has gotten through to take it one game at a time.

 

We'll see.

 

They come out of these next 6 games 4-2 (14-6 overall for the first 20) I'm happy.

Damn, Jas. Good minds think alike.

 

LMAO

That's the only thing that worries me about this weekend. The Sox have a nasty habit of playing to the level of their competition. They play the better teams and they bring their A game. They play lesser teams and they play like a lesser team. Lets see how the 2005 edition of the Sox handles this.

He didn't say we were the best team in baseball. The question was "Buy or Sell - The Nationals are the biggest suprise of the season so far" and only 1 person bought. Plashcke said it was the Dodgers and someone else picked them too. Mariotti picked the Sox because it seems like we lost so much but our moves are paying off. He also said he's not being a homer and that he could ask how much we hate him.

That's what makes the Sox winning that much sweeter. They are throwing it in the face of all those "pundits" who said we'd fall apart after trading Lee and letting Magglio go.

Did anyone read Mariotti's column yesterday? At first glance, it appears to a complimentary column towards Frank Thomas. But, throughout the column, he basically takes a backhanded swipe at everybody on the Sox.

Again I ask....

 

 

Why does anyone care what this twit has to say?

I read him regularly. I may not like what he is saying, but it's good to keep a finger on the pulse of Chicago sports when you are out of town.

 

Editted to add the missing word "not". That kind changes the meaning a bit. :D

Why contribute towards keeping him in business. As far as I am concerned, every hit he doesn't get, and every 50 cents the Sun Times doesn't get is another step towards him hitting the road.

I've noticed Mariotti has a few nice things to say about Thomas. Probably because he actually respects him.

Wow, people. Way to get riled up over nothing.
