QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 12:02 PM) It is nice that Houston finally got to the Series. I remember that series against Philly, and that had to be HARRRRRRRD for Astros fans. Last year, too - you have Clemens on the mound for a clinching game and it doesn't happen? Tough, tough stuff. It's just too bad that they'll have to settle for being National League Champions.... Haha I like it. I'm very happy for Biggio and Bagwell. It's impossible to hate those guys, but it's going to be very easy to root against them this next week and a half.

It'd be pretty damn sweet, if we could cap off the season with yet ANOTHER 8 game winning streak. I've loved those, because 8's always been my lucky number. Just 4 more!

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 09:21 AM) I dont understand why you dont get Ditka to throw out the first pitch. All White Sox fans are not Bears fans...

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Oct 20, 2005 -> 11:33 AM) if Konerko leaves for the Angels?!?!?!? Yep, only for the Angels. If Konerko goes to Boston, this rumor doesn't count. We all knew about the buyout coming, but let's wait and see.

Cleveland Indianapolis St. Louis Philadelphia Green Bay Kansas City Pittsburgh Washington Dallas Buffalo Tennessee Baltimore Denver Atlanta

Now it's for real. We've got ourselves an opponent. Let's get 4 more!

A: How did you feel about Contreras before the All-Star Break? I'm pretty sure we're all the same on this one, but not one of us would have believed that we would have wanted Count to start game 1 of each playoff series and are happy to see him do so. B: Do you think the Sox will view Contreras as a valuable part of the team after the season is over? I hope so; he's proven he's very vital to the success of this ballclub. C: Do you think Contreras will be trade bait after the season is over? I don't think so. D: Do you want Contreras to be trade bait after the season? Nope. E: Do you feel that Contreras could sustain this type of success, or do you think Cooper has caught the proverbial "Lightning in a bottle"? Cooper's good. Count's done this against some awesome teams. Count was able to do this in Cuba, and the Yanks just couldn't get it out of him. Coop said there was something wrong when he got him, and he's fixed it. F: Did you think that Contreras was worth his contract when he was acquired? Nope. G: Do you think that Contreras is worth his contract now? Yep.

Congrats to the Konerko's!

I'd prefer the Cards, but I honestly don't care. I hope they can at least take it to 7.

QUOTE(keninem @ Oct 19, 2005 -> 04:24 PM) I'd like to see Alex Snelius do it, personally. Has anyone ever seen them? I only know the name thanks to a Sox HR.

Anything for John Stamos... http://www.soxtalk.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=41721

Brilliant!
