chw42 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I made predictions last year and we got swept. So, uh, yeah, I'm going to keep my mouth shut this time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogan873 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 In reality, I agree that the series is not as exciting as it used to be. It's just 6 games of the season. Of course there is some added excitement, and I hope the Sox sweep the Cubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

southsideirish71 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 (edited) Beckham hits his first homer to right center field late in the game. Causing the bestest fans in the world to cry, pout and trash their shrine again with garbage. Â Cub fans, embracing the fail since 1908.

NorthSideSox72 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I predict that at some point during one of these three games, there may in fact be an alcohol-fueled fight somewhere in the stands. Â Bold, I know. Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Critic Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I predict that I will see a total of 13 innings from the 3 games combined. I will intentionally fall asleep during tonight's game and unintentionally fall asleep in my recliner during the other two.

Â (This prediction is based on normal weather - rain delays may increase or decrease the number of innings I sleep through) Â Are you 80 years old? Two of the games are afternoon affairs. Â I think Zambrano rolls in game one and the next two the Sox should hit rather well. Â For some reason I think Lee and Bradley will have big series. Â Cubs win 7-1 Sox win 8-5 Â Game 3.....either Sox win 2-0 or lose 13-2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinningUgly85 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Cubs fired their hitting coach now they will just have an offensive explosion against our pitching with the Sox not able to capitalize with runners in scoring position...Greg Walker will still have a job.

Shamrock4Life Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 that is Milton Bradley on opening day down here in Houston, yes I was at the game. But I believe the clip referenced is Bradley diving for a ball, then rolling, but in reverse. Â Danks with a no-no tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Castro hits a home run. Jose has his worst start back from AAA but still gets the win. Gordo has a hell of a series. Getz hits a triple. Nix get a clutch pinch-hit at some point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flavum Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 I also think Beckham is going to have his coming out party. He's due, and I think he'll rise to the occasion. I think his first career homer will be planted on Waveland. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanOfCorn Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Ozzie and Lou go out for a night on the town drinking Corona's and Vodka's...during the game. Â Larry Rothschild hikes his uniform pants up to his neck, choking off blood to his brain and Big Z collapses like they are identical twins. Â Greg Walker and Von Joshua get into it before the game arguing who got more flack as White Sox hitting coach. Walk ultimately wins by lifting and pulling Joshua's jock up over his head. Â A shirtless, drunken Cubs fan fratboy declares, "I think I may actually like the White Sox more after this game!" The universe immediately blinks out of existence.

Sorry, our team in a very unfriendly NL park spells disaster. Couple that with Contreras's terrible track record against the Cubs and we lose 2, maybe 3 at Wrigley.

harfman77 Posted June 16, 2009 Share Posted June 16, 2009 Soto goes off on the Sox in the way that Aramis Ramirez did last year, then continues to suck the rest of the season. Beckham has the best offensive and worst defensive series thus far, Contreras comes back to earth, Sox go 1-2 on the road and 2-1 at home.
