The walk-offs are what made this season so awesome.

Now that I've had some time to sit back and truly reflect, this really was a great season. Great vid@chw42.

That's a great video. Thanks.

Excellent video. As much as we sometimes b**** about being a softball team, wow those homers are exciting. Call me a fool, but I still think CQ mighta led us to greatness in the postseason.

It sure makes one hell of a highlight reel. :headbang

awesome videos.

 

 

damn, we hit a lot of big time HR's this season.

watching that video, any doubts i had of konerko's bat speed are gone, he still has a really quick swing

Why would anyone call you a fool? This team was clearly much, much better with CQ in the lineup and im sure that we would have done a lot more with him in the post season

 

Well there's twelve and a half minutes of my life I'll never get back.

 

Gonna go watch it again. Good job.

Probably not. Maybe a more competitive series against the Rays, or maybe even a win. But we still wouldn't have beat the Red Sox.

Kind of like the 2005 White Sox werent gonna beat the Red Sox?

 

Nobody will ever know

Awesome video. Not to criticize but I was simply hoping to see that play by john danks where he beats the runner to home with the ball and tags him out.

That was a great video. I have been working on one just of highlights from the 3-in-a-row elimination games against our division rivals

Great video until the song when the players names were being listed. Oh well, can't be perfect, right? :P

Hey, it met the criteria...

 

I wanted to thank the Sox for the memories.

I made another video, just for the hell of it. This one's only 1:25 and matches the music in the background (literally).

 

It's more like a music video...

 

He's a White Sox

Boy, you look back and remember how bad the weather was the first month and a half. Now, Oct 12, it's a happy 86 degrees in Chicago.

 

Awesome video. Not to be critical, but I feel the Journey song is a 2005 thing and should only be associated with that team. But that's just me.

Uhhh, no. The Boston Cubs have 2 pitchers, one of which we hit well in Lester. Becket is spent and with that full, healthy, squad I'd see a ring easily.

Most of the clips during that Journey song were after the trading deadline. The Sox looked like they were going to the playoffs, so I thought it was time for some believin'. Lol.

Or that liner he snared in LA to start the DP. Yeah, I forgot about both of those. It's a bit too late now though.

thank you so much this was a treat!
