Look my only beef is that you always find the negative spin on damn near every situation. You even put a tag on yourself as Mr. Pessimism. WTF is that? PK comes up with 1 & 3 with one out and you immediately insinuate PKDP coming....it is just flat out tiring. Man I sit back and say to myself...kill em PK...lets get POSITIVE energy and CONFIDENCE back on our side. You can start to prove to yourself & the rest of us that you are positive by taking down that silly Mr. Pessimism bit about yourself. I bet if I were to walk about this country with Mr. Pessimism on my chest that I wouldnt get to many takers as friends.....

 

I wasn't given the Mr. Pessimism moniker. I think it's stupid, especially as I've been one of the few people who haven't proclaimed our season is over yet. The reason I assumed PK would hit into a DP is because PK is slow as hell, and Silva is a sinker ball pitcher. Good post though...I appreciate the honest paragraph.

What difference does it make whether you're optimistic or pessmistic? It has no bearing on the team whatsoever.

way to pick him up, Mark

well that was nice, an easy out and we f' it up.

Good job Mark.

Mark pitching over a terrible error?

And PK can go into retard mode with trying to pull everything...

Mark looks decent today..hopefully this isn't one of those days our offense decides to take a nap...

You still think Gload is a better option at 1st fathom? Fathom's #1 rule for success is being violated with PK as DH...IMO

 

You can't argue with PK's hitting results since he's been a DH though. I'm going to give Gload the benefit of the doubt....for now.

i want this motherf***ing offense to get some motherf***ing runs!

Ozzie summarizes the SoxTalk game threads to the team after each game. It has obviously affected their play.

Buehrle's only given up 1 run so far. If you didn't know better, you would have thought that he had allowed 5 runs already.

I'm getting really sick of Juan Uribe.

 

& Im really getting sick of you posting the negative about our players....what mental error has he made to get you so sick?

I think so too.

I never said the mental errors. I was referring to his poor ABs he's been having, especially in big at-bats. He's become pretty lazy at the plate and in this field.

Take a chill pill. Put him on ignore if you can't stand his posts.

BA can look so good, and then...

Shades of '05 there.

This Jerry Owens guy looks good leading off.

Haha why has DJ been doing Borat lately? "That's a-nice!"

Some people take sports a little too seriously.

 

 

 

Nice bunt Pods.

I hate it, but I know it will be stuck in my head in a couple days.

Pods has been good in his last 3 ABs.
