LOL...freaking idiots these people are.

 

Anywho...who cares...if we can put Pods in teh AS game...we can get the Rally Crede game on top of the AL West!

RE-LAX

If they were in the AL West that would mean they would have to play the A's 19 times a year. They would be screwed.

Anywho...I also must say...that's one hell of an incredible highlight to just watch over and over and over and over

I couldn't get it to show all the plays or play any of them.

It was a dumb mistake but how was that a disgrace?

 

Overreact much?

It wouldn't let me vote in Firefox...when i switched to IE it worked fine...

EVERYONE HATES US, WE WERE PICKED LAST IN KICKBALL

If you want to talk about disgraced.....

 

Where is Rowand in performance of the year. He almost singlehandedly beat the Yankees.

 

Where is Uribe in defensive player of the year? Rowand?

 

-- Oh and watch the Orlando Hudson play. That guy is so good. He makes everything look so damn easy. I would love to have him on my team. In fact, he's probably my favorite non-sox player in baseball.

Disgraced? Where is Raffy's 3,000th hit?

 

It is worse that Rowand is not in it for the Defensive Player, and that Paulie is not in it for the Hitter.

You mean the play he made in the game that 14 Inning game that Shingo won. That was one of the best plays I have ever seen.

No offense to PK, but when you compare his numbers this year to guys like Pujols, Jones, Ortiz, Teixeira, ARod, Lee...he is a step behind them. Those first 2 months where he hit like .220 really do hurt his numbers quite a bit. Along with his numbers with RISP most of the year.

 

If PK can come out next year and avoid having any prolongued, terrible, month long slumps...the guy can challenge for the AL MVP, and maybe even win it. But with that bad start, last year he's just 1 step behind.

The AL West thing is pretty stupid, I noticed it yesterday.

 

I'll tell you something else though, I about spit when I heard the commentator call for David Ortiz's walkoff. "BIG PAPI!! HITS IT TO DEEP RIGHT FIELD! BIG PAPI!!."

The AL West thing is just idiotic, but at least a decent amount of Sox got mentioned in this thing. I mean, both Cotts and Politte are mentioned as setup men, Gooch for ROY, Ozzie for Manager of the Year, Mark Buehrle for starter of the year, and the Rally Crede for Play of the Year.

I believe each team got to put 1 play in the play of the year list...they had voting on a number of plays from each team about 2 weeks ago (I, naturally, voted for the Rally Crede)...so there's not necessariliy credit due on that one.

 

Kinda sad that Cliffy and Neal are making me split relief pitcher votes too.

some amazing plays on there

Go to 9/20, Juan Uribe throws out Coco Crisp to save a run.

YA, AND I LIKE KICKBALL.

           

EVERYONE HATES US, WE WERE PICKED LAST IN KICKBALL

 

We're the fat kid that always gets picked on over and over, and the one no one likes. We ARE picked last in kickball. We fail over and over again.

 

Then at the least expected time...we come through and kick the game winning homer.

wow...crede really stayed back on that one. His head never moved. Sweet swing. Mercy.

i watched the play 5 times in a row, and i got chills everytime.

Crede

Wow, it took me forever to realize what the problem was. Then I caught the "West" at the end of the sentence. This is what we complain about? :headshake

does anyone actually feel slighted by their description of crede's homerun? their descriptions for the other plays are just as bland. i think some people are being a little oversensitive. you cant expect all media outlets to say "world series champion" before they say white sox every single time we are mentioned.

 

its not even that big of a deal. the play speaks for itself. since you can watch it, the description hardly matters.

wow...crede really stayed back on that one. His head never moved. Sweet swing. Mercy.

That's how his swing looked all of October. It was beautiful. He'd take one quick motion towards the plate and swing...while keeping his shoulder closed, and he'd drive the ball. In september he had the highest OPS of anyone in the AL with at least 50 at bats.

 

The guy can really swing a great bat when he keeps his shoulder closed and looks to drive the ball. He just gets in these ruts where he flies open and becomes a simple guy to strike out/pop out on pitches either outside or high.

 

If he can limit those slumps from being month-long to being week-long, people may very well be clamoring for him to be our #3 hitter next year. But that's a big if.
