Okay, I want to know the details now, so we can figure out who was blowing smoke up our collective asses.

So what was going down when MB hugged Danks, Jon, and Ozzie?

About time KW and JR understand the fans and value of the deal they got! :gosox3: Now trade Garland PLEASE!

you'd figure that they had to screw up SOMEWHERE.... no tv postgame for more info!

This would have been a disaster if they didn't resign him. Thank God Almighty as the Sox management does actually appear to have some common sense.

 

MB is a guy who we will be talking about extending 2-3 yrs from now as well, I think he will be a 220+ game winner, good move.

Keep Garland, get rid of Jose, por favor.

I doubt he'll be willing to sign a deal in the White Sox price Range. I can't see him taking a discount similar to the one Buehrle took and I can't see the Sox agreeing to a 5 year $70M+ deal like he'll be looking for.

You smell like blue cheese. :fight

Well done, but it shouldn't have been this close.

I figured you would go into convulsions after this happened, you had all of your prospects laid out and ready to join the organization

The Sox never have a postgame show on WGN.

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

BEST NEWS ALL YEAR. KW I take back everything I said about ya.

 

ok maybe not EVERYthing...

excellent way to cap off the worst 1st half for the sox i can remember in a long time

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Jul 8, 2007 -> 08:42 PM)
Ohh thank god

 

;)

 

Not quite sure why I'm being singled-out here. I've wanted them to sign him, but after what we read yesterday, it didn't seem like he was in the plans. I'm thrilled for reasons on and off the field, and it immediately makes our future for the next 5 years better.

Buehrle is quite the jokester! He did the same thing earlier this week when he cleaned out his locker!

He was probably letting them all know that he'll be around for the next 4+ years.

yeah, but there's not even anything over on comcast... stupid fsn crap

 

 

oh well

 

 

where's the player option info?

I had the game on mute - when I saw Buehrle waving to the crowd I figured kenny had traded him, then they cut to a shot of the scoreboard announcement.

 

congrats, sox fans

Ah, I see....even though I've been the one who's been telling people that the expected packages are unrealistic.

The White Sox ace agreed to a four-year, $56 million contract with Chicago on Sunday, taking the most attractive pitcher on the rumor mill off the market. The contract includes an escalator clause that could make the deal worth $75 million over five years if he is traded.

I thought it meant he was traded. Turned out to be the total opposite.

I'm slightly surprised. Way to go Sox, way to go Kenny. So the Sox won't suck ass for the next few years.
