All In The Twins Ass; 5/4/2011 Gamethread

Featured Replies

You think the Sox are having a bad day? Imagine this: You're a Siamese Twin's fan. Your brother is gay, you're not. He has a date tonight. You only have one ass.

 

Going for the Sox in this corner, 6'1, 215 pounds John "The Blackout" Danks!

For the Twinkies,, 6'4, 240 Nick "Oh s***. I'm about to get bounced from this rotation" Blackburn!

Oooh, rematch of game 163. AND JIM THOME IS ON THE WRONG DAMN TEAM. And also on the DL.

 

Time for Dunn to otnnud rofemit

Fans should give a standing ovation if and when the Sox get their first hit off the Twins this game/season.

Oh they will.

 

Hopefully it's not in July! and I am deathly serious about that too

If the clowns he faces tomorrow hit him then yeah, he should probably voluntarily step down from his role as a starter in the Twins rotation, and perhaps retire. Luckily for him, the Sox lineup is about as threatening as an invalid who walks funny and whistles to communicate. I think he'll be just fine.

Not if Brent Lillibridge is in the lineup. Then it will be feared.

I'm honestly rooting for another no-hitter.

 

Why not?

 

If we're destined not to make the playoffs (which is likely), why not just embrace the pile of filth rotting on the field? I want every loss to be so pitiful, so embarrassing, that there's no choice but to force change upon the organization. It doesn't have to be immediate change, either. I'd rather watch this team gradually dismantle in front of our eyes.

"Sir, I am here to deliver."

Time to build on our 3-6 division record!

Today is Tom Skilling Weather Day. Today's forecast?

 

60% chance of a hit

 

High: Last place

 

Low: Today (for now)

 

5 day forecast Fri 2 runs, Sat 1 Run, Sun 2 runs, Mon 0 runs, Tues 1 run.

It's on WGN for the whole nation to see. And it's fair weather day at the game.

 

I stuck with the Bulls through thick and thin throughout the last decade, so I'm doing the same with the Sox. I'll probably wear a brown bag over my head but I'll be there as a loyal dedicated Sox fan.

The Sox WILL WIN this game today - no ifs ands or buts about it. They will win today.

 

I don't care how bad the team is... I'm still a proud Chicago White Sox fan. This is my team, and I'm going to root for them rain or shine.

 

Now dammit go out there and play with some pride and get this s*** straighened out.

To be serious, which is a complete 180 from last night (except for that Conte post I made to Milkman, not sure what I was doing there), this team got no hit last night. That really, really sucks. And I mean that on as many levels as possible...the players sucked, it sucked watching it, and quite frankly, it was a sucky no-hitter...Liriano looked terrible until the 7th, and even then he didn't look great.

 

This is absolutely the most important game of the season thus far. The no-hitter either serves as a wake up call and they start to show signs of life, perhaps even winning a few games, or it serves as the nail in the coffin and they will continue to bury themselves as they start this west coast swing.

 

Personally, I could care less either way. I'm going down for graduation today, and I am going to get torn the f*** up.

Should be over by 3:30 I hope I don't stuck in the game day traffic........oh wait, 5,000 folks do make a traffic jam on the Dan Ryan.

 

I really do not even care any more as sad as that is.

 

This team does not seem to care so neither do I.

I'd like to see this lineup:

 

Pierre

Rios

Konerko

Dunn

Quentin

Alexei

Teahen

Beckham

AJP

Let's just hope that Liriano doesn't recover from this very easily. Maybe he'll go into a funk for the rest of the season like Buehrle did after his perfecto.

 

 

Sigh............. :gosox1:

Great thread title, great lead post, bad team.

Pierre, Ramirez, Dunn, Konerko, Quentin, Pierzynski, Rios, Teahen, Vizquel

Yesterday, it was Francisco "Oh s***. I'm about to get bounced from this rotation" Liriano. It worked out well for him. :gosox1:

Glad to see Morel & Beckham out of there

Winning line up. Teahen is my pick to click. Rios will get off too.

 

Come on guys it's not going to get any worse. It can't. There's too much talent on this team for them to be this bad for very long. It's darkest before dawn.

Gut feeling---there will be a roster move after this game, either today or tomorrow. Somebody will not be getting on the plane to Seattle tomorrow night.
