Great start for Gonzalez. When you look around the league, everyone wants starting pitching except maybe the Indians. If the Sox can get some consistency, they could have one of the better rotations.

541 posts in the game against Boston. WGN games would be the same. You are wrong. James Sheilds on a weekday WGN game got over 400.

 

I looked a little bit... mostly saw CSN games with longer threads. There were a couple outliers.

 

I'll look again later.

Nice easy 1-2-3 9th now boys. 5th consecutive series win. Ain't all pretty but it's good to be winning again (yes I know I bang the rebuild drum).

I can't believe this is even an argument. To say there's no difference in activity between winning and losing threads is all kinds of naive. It's plainly obvious.

I'm not really arguing that.. I said right away that could be a part of it. I'm saying there are other pretty large factors.

There's more venting and b****ing during losing threads. Just my opinion. Seems like it on my Chiefs board as well. Losing stirs things up more, more arguments, debates.

What team has more fans in winning/blowout games than close/controversial losses?

 

The Cubs? Cardinals? Red Sox?

 

 

Plus, Shields' run of 4-5 starts there was historical, unprecedented levels of bad. It was a train wreck or a NASCAR 13 car pile-up at Darlington.

Have they been starting the innings too soon tonight?

Do you guys really believe that there is a correlation between a TV network and the number of posts in a game thread on a White Sox forum?

 

LOL.

Does any other fanbase in the country have this exact conversation going on right now?

 

I'd hope Mariners fans are more excited about beating the Astros than their 39 years of ineptitude.

Gotta love Navarro's frame work

Of course there's more posts when losing. I'm sure I'm guilty of it, as there's usually more posters active on here as well.

Rodon is the key. If he pitches like we know he can, the Sox will have a very solid rotation. If he continues to stink up the joint, then, well, it isn't so good.

The least 10 posted in game threads.... the Sox are 6-4

 

 

Okay now I'm really done with research. Doesn't appear to be much a correlation this year.

NASCAR! I need to bring that back instead of Unbelievable..........

i was kidding about making a thread about threads.

And Caulfield is right, it's just fandom in general, it's not specific to Sox fans.

Haha I just may at this point.

Very false statement, and shame on you for making it.

 

Exactly what I expected.

You aren't. You first checked out after ripping Avi's OPS for the 2000th time, then he gave them the lead., and haven't had any game comment since.

Anyway, did we really need to use Robertson with a 5-run lead?

DRob in a non save situation us not the same pitcher. Hopefully he limits the inning.

Not if you have a vested interest in being negative.

Yeah I started to try and go through all those.. not worth the time that is going to take...

 

I will admit this... some WPR threads are gigantic some are very tiny.

 

Another thing I'll admit.. anytime shields started during his horrible stretch the threads were gigantic.

Yesss!
