When guys like Hawk, DJ, and Farmer seem to have lost hope, then you know it might be time to be worried. The Sox aren't giving us much reason to be optimistic. Every bad game, every HORRIBLE Carl Everett at-bat, every self-doubting quote makes it harder to believe. But as down as I am right now, I still believe that time will run out on the Injuns. Of course, a win today and 2 of 3 over the Cartoons would help the mood quite a bit...
September 18, 200520 yr The White Sox look like the sprinter horse, which gets out to the huge lead. Then, there are the Indians, who stayed in the middle of the pack, and then made their huge run down the back stretch. How many times do you see the sprinter horse actually stay in the lead? If this was a Hollywood movie, we'd lose by a nose at the finish line.
September 18, 200520 yr It's funny...I've lost some of my optimism. I'm still more optimistic than pessimistic when it comes to the Sox or anything; however, we've had this bad of a slide and still have the best AL record.
