August 27, 200619 yr QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:20 AM) When you talk about playing with intensity, 2 plays immediately come to my mind. 1. Luis Castillo's ground ball to Iguchi off of Jenks in the 9th. Iguchi charges, but not hard/fast enough, and Castillo is close enough to be called safe. Iguchi looks incredibly fatigued. He just doesn't seem to have a lot of energy at the plate or in the field.

August 27, 200619 yr Guys not overswinging, holding runners, good range in the outfield, hitting the cutoff man....and many, many more. yeah but at least we'll draw more fans then they will this year
August 27, 200619 yr I get to see this train wreck up close tomorrow. Hopefully they get a win to salvage the series. Why do we drop our pants every year, except last year, bend over and take it from the twinks past the asb. We just lost our 3 last series to them. Including a sweep. We are looking at another sweep here.
August 27, 200619 yr QUOTE(fathom @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 10:22 PM) What's the word on Radke? id guess not good.....but thats just a guess...he had nothing in that last game, and hes already said that he's retiring next year

We have to remember that the radar gun was way down last night, so his velocity wasn't as bad as it seemed. QUOTE(cgaudin @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:24 AM) We had a season similar to this one.

August 27, 200619 yr QUOTE(Brian @ Aug 26, 2006 -> 11:10 PM) Singleton said Gload was playing up on that Punto liner, defending a bunt. With 2 outs? I understand it is a possibility, but it would be hard to lay down a soft bunt off Thornton. Chalk this up to Oz as well. A player doesn't make the call to do this on his own with two outs, especially a bench player.
August 27, 200619 yr We had a season similar to this one. It was 2004.........'nuff said. agreed. and the twins b****SLAPPED us back then too

August 27, 200619 yr Phone busy on my first try. First caller into the PFB show thinks that Ozzie made all the right moves last night. Shockingly he gets through. Someone gives PFB a tug on the nuts, and he is the skype caller of the show. Wow that was quick. He usually saves that for his more negative callers. Edited August 27, 200619 yr by southsideirish71

That's going to be a pretty cranky show and rightfully so.
August 27, 200619 yr LOL once again Rongey sets a new bar for stupid remarks, " I don't think Contreras had a terrible start, yes a bad one, but not terrible."
August 27, 200619 yr QUOTE(Whitewashed in @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:28 AM) LOL once again Rongey sets a new bar for stupid remarks, " I don't think Contreras had a terrible start, yes a bad one, but not terrible." It wasn't that bad. He only gave up 5 runs in his start. That's about average for everyone besides Garland lately.
August 27, 200619 yr LOL once again Rongey sets a new bar for stupid remarks, " I don't think Contreras had a terrible start, yes a bad one, but not terrible." It's amazing and i never thought i'd say it but he's surpassed hawk harrelson as the biggest kiss ass turn a blind eye to the white sox employee
August 27, 200619 yr QUOTE(SinkingShip06 @ Aug 27, 2006 -> 03:36 AM) OZZIE, be who you say you are and throw you f***ing team under the bus I just hope he's the first one to go under.
August 27, 200619 yr Ozzie says it didn't get real bad until the second inning and they need a little winning streak and hopefully they can play a little better. The sox took some good swings vs their pitchers, but we still lost. We cannot continue to give up bases because we cannot afford to do that and we need to get better. He expects Contreras to do better and he's worried about him. He says he needs to step it up.
August 27, 200619 yr Ozzie Guillen, We battled. Hopefully we play better. I love the way we played today. The game didnt finish the way we wanted to. No s*** Scott Merkin or some throws up a softball question, do you feel proud to be part of such a great game. Eat s***. Now ozzie is worried about Contreras. Jose has to pitch better. No s*** Ozzie. No one asks the question about bmac. what a bunch of goofs, media bulls***. Are they upset and worried that the sox will cut off their food spread at the park if they ask a tough question.
