September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 04:11 PM) So you won't b**** ever when the Sox need some help, and the team they need the help from throws a line-up like this on the field? That's fine. Personally, I would be pissed. What if Ozzie is starting his "B" lineup in the first game, and starting his regulars the next two games? Maybe he is resting the regulars today because they need a rest after a 4 game series and a big celebration. Its not as if he is pulling his pitchers, Garland is still pitching. And why would the Sox be wanting to help any other team right now? They need to be worried about their own house, and not worried about a potential 3 team wildcard playoff. Boston, New York, and the Indians got themselves in that predicament, not the White Sox. The White Sox (finally) clinched their division, and now have the right to rest their regulars. You know that Boston, New York, and Cleveland would all be doing the same thing if the positions were switched.
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 08:16 PM) This is bogus. And before anyone skewers me, just put yourselves in NY or Boston's shoes. Yeah, but f*** them spoiled-rotten sons of b****es.
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 02:15 PM) Kap...close this one up? :headshake
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 03:15 PM) Kap...close this one up? I don't think there is any reason for that. Nobody is attacking anyone else, just good banter between people with different opinions.
September 30, 200520 yr This is the first time we have even been in the playoffs in 5 years. We owe NOTHING to those East Coast jags. We play for OURSELVES, not them. You think Boston or NY give a s*** about us? I have an idea. Let's tell Boston it is a curse of the evil manager. They still believe in curses right?
September 30, 200520 yr Who wants to lay the over-under on this game? I guarantee this lineup will score off Millwood.

September 30, 200520 yr come on people!!! We just clinched yesterday!! All teams rest most of their starters the day after!! It happens!!! f*** OFF SELIG, BOSTON, NYY... it happens. we're still starting mark buehle!
September 30, 200520 yr If Selig is so concerned about clubs fielding comepetitive lineups then why doesn't he send letters to all the last place teams? dahahaha
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(Steve9347 @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 03:21 PM) we're still starting mark buehle! Nope, he's actually just been scratched to let el duque get a start. Ok, I'm just kidding.
September 30, 200520 yr Damn it would be funny as hell if we win tonite with this lineup!! Watch Joe Borchard hits 3 HRs today!

September 30, 200520 yr This is the 1st time I can remember that the majority of the people here didn't start off by saying: WTF is Ozzie doing with this lineup? Personally, I'm looking forward to tonight. The regulars need a break.
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(THEWOOD @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:33 PM) they are talking about it on PTI I just missed it. What did they end up saying?
September 30, 200520 yr This is funny. Seriously, funny. It would NOT be news at all if Baaahstan or the Yankmees did this. STFU AND PLAY!
September 30, 200520 yr I just heard. Unreal. He's benching 6 regulars (Kong, Gooch, Uribe, AJ, Rowand, & Dye). Then again our offense is nothing to shout about. Change might be good. I've got to believe if it's close you'll see substitutions quickly. Go Mark!
September 30, 200520 yr Boo hoo Boston! Boo hoo New York!! Maybe if you guys would have beat the D-Rays and Toronto you wouldn't have to worry about making the playoffs. It looks like the Central shines in 2005.
September 30, 200520 yr anyone else really excited to see this game and see some of these guys play? i know i am.
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 03:45 PM) anyone else really excited to see this game and see some of these guys play? i know i am. Ditto.
September 30, 200520 yr QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 30, 2005 -> 09:45 PM) anyone else really excited to see this game and see some of these guys play? i know i am. Yes. And I think they will give us all a hard fought game, and that's what matters. STFU and PLAY. My new slogan. Edited September 30, 200520 yr by kapkomet
September 30, 200520 yr Who would be better motivated to give it all they got in today's game? 7 bench players who are fighting for a playoff spot and possibly a spot on next year's roster or 7 regulars who know they're on the playoff roster and just clinched the division yesterday? Honestly, I think this lineup might give us the best chance to win.
