Sox take a temporary break from padding Detroit's Win column to visit the final resting place of Brett Favre's career.

FYI, Sale is starting, not Liriano

That certainly changes things, doesn't it.

Not really, because if the Sox can't beat a pitcher named Esmerelda with an ERA over 9 with any of their starting pitchers, then they don't deserve to win this division.

This. But I am fairly confident these boys know what's at stake and will steamroll the Twins.

Again, nobody "deserves" to win any division.

 

The team that ends up with the most wins wins it.

 

St. Louis didn't "deserve" to win the 2006 NLC with 83 wins by your reasoning, either.

Come one Sale, the only way to win 20 games this year is to win the rest of the starts. It begins tonight!

The 2008 White Sox had to be one of the least "deserving" division champs in a while.

That last 3 games plus the blackout game made it deserving for me. That was one hell of a guantlet, and they were running on fumes and somehow pulled it out

A most excellent thread start!

Esmeralda?

 

If we lose this game I will have loss all faith haha.

 

JUST WIN FELLAS!!!

Esmerelda is the name of a cat in some cartoon.

Are you sure you're not thinking of Azrael, Gargamel's cat from The Smurfs?

I absolutely destroyed my liver for that 8-game stretch starting with the Tuesday game in the Metrodome. What a week that was.

Win or my head explodes.

I simply love D Wise but it's hard to take our team seriously with him batting third. I'd even put whiffmeister Tank third if we had to. WTF.

My boss pulled strings and got me and a buddy front row seats right next to the tarp on the 3rd base line. It might have been the best game ever for me.

As soon as the game vs the Tigers ended, I just sat on Ticketmaster pressing refresh until the tickets went on sale. Scored two in the upper deck behind home plate, like row 10 or something. So awesome.

Yeah I was there too. In fact, I think we talked at that game, didn't we?

 

That team seemed to want to give it away as the season went on, but somehow, they pulled it out. Would love this season to be the same.

They seem to have forgotten this with Detroit despite being at home.
