You mean old people?

You have got to be kidding... 95% of your posts are saying the team has done something stupid.

 

So young people like cheaters? What's that all about? Young people have no morals or something? I don't get the criticism.

 

Again, I guess I feel honored people know more about my posts than I do. I can't tell you about anybody's posts and you all know what I post? I guess I'm that influential. Very cool.

I hope Manny comes here, gives the entire team steroids, and they all start ripping bombs off kids' heads on the Fundamentals deck.

 

This made me laugh out loud at my desk.

ubaldo goes for rockies tonight vs dodgers and they get phillies and roy halladay mon = eek dodgers

Yep. Thats why you play the game first and not worry about match-ups. I thought the Twins would lose yesterday for sure with Cliff Lee on the bump.

Where does Manny land in the line-up? Third? Fourth?

You missed the content of the "old people" post.

 

As far as your posts, let's just say they are memorable.

Manny would bat 5th (imo)

Tex is a friend, I was giving him a hard time and making a joke. Hell, I think he's only a year or two older than I am anyway.

What are you trying to prove here? I get your point you don't like PED users but than you need to stop being a fan a baseball as there is no way of knowing who has and has cheated. The "clean" Sox never existed as Jose Canseco was a member of this team. It is a part of the game and the Sox are just trying to win as that brings people to the game not that and only that.

Haven't you noticed who has taken the majority of DH at-bats this season? That decision was way more stupid than acquiring Manny Ramirez would be.

 

I'm not trying to prove anything. He pissed me off when he said he condones doing everything illegal as long as winning results. I was responding to his disgusting post.

 

Stupid may not be the right word. I'll say disgusting, appalling, disgraceful instead of stupid, cause you are right, he may help us win.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 12:49 PM)
I think I'm like Balta.

I love the White Sox. If I cheer for him, I will feel dirty doing so.

He worded it best.

 

This is a disgrace. I just hope we have him one month.

And if we fall out of the race, which seems inevitable, how the f*** are you gonna feel about Manny when he's not into playing for the White Sox with us 7 back?? Manny is a cheater. I don't want him.

it wasn't against the rules. how about all the players of the past who used greenies before a game?

 

better build a big fire to burn all those sox jerseys.

I say 5th to start out. Move him to 3rd if Rios doesn't get out of his power funk which he showed he might be last night.

Should be third, might be 5th.

Should be 3rd. The end.

I would bat him higher, but ya I can't see Ozzie moving Rios or Konerko (in his case, rightfully so) out of the 3 and 4 spots.

No way does Rios deserve to be the 4th hitter. He has 3 HRs since the ASB.

I don't agree with that lineup - but any way you cut it - with manny in the line up... man oh man - does our offensive attack look better or what!

I'd almost rather have Rios bat 2nd. He's got speed and hits a lot of singles.

We are the mid 90s Cleveland Indians.

 

we are gonna make 5 straight playoff appearances???? Score!

Can we throw some records on that fire?

It would be a travesty to see Konerko out of the 4th spot this season. No way that happens.

You're right, you bat your power guy cleanup.

 

Paulie 4th, Rios 5th? Any chance Rios bats 2nd ?

One question, Greg: Are you saying you've never sped while driving, fudged some numbers on a tax return, jaywalked? Longshot's post was a bit inflammatory, but I got the point. How many guys do you think were on steroids before the testing became so prominent? I would imagine a lot more than we might think.
