QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:57 PM) Konerko is on an 8 game hitting streak coming into today What is his double play streak.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:39 PM) SSI, As I already said, in his first 6 wins he gave up less than 3 runs every game What is wrong with that? So lets round, 50% of his wins hes done good, 50% hes been carried by the offense. So what, hes not Johan. You are cherry picking stats. He was up and down like crap at the first part of the year. When he faced a bad team, he dominated him. When he faced a good team he got rocked. How many good starts did he have against bad teams. He has the stuff of an ace, I dont think he should pitch like Danny Wright or Felix Diaz. He is getting paid like an ace also. How is it shocking that people want him to pitch well and are so out of line for saying that a highly paid pitcher who cant go beyond 6 innings before imploding is bad, or has a plus 5 ERA is bad.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:24 PM) Vazquez is a loser with 11 wins. I wonder where the Sox would be without Javy's 6 wins in the first 2 months. Wins are such a way to judge a pitcher these days. Danny Wright won 14 games with the sox on year. Give a medicore pitcher 9 runs a game in the first half of the season and anyone can win a bunch of games.

QUOTE(Soxbadger @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:17 PM) Honestly from the reactions here it would appear the Sox have given up 10 runs, not 1. Every pitcher on the Sox has had trouble you cant just pull them all after the first run they give up. Is this the first time you have seen Javy pitch? How many implosions do you need. If it quacks like a duck, and looks like a duck, and waddles like a duck, sometimes its a duck.

QUOTE(G&T @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 02:15 PM) BMac up in the pen. He should of been up at about 12:40 for long toss, and then 12:55 he should of been in the pen for warm ups and we should bury this stiff that is currently on the mound to bullpen duty.

Get f***ing McCarthy up. And then send Mr I cant pitch unless the sun is perfect, there is no wind, and everyone makes web gems and put him in the pen. Then in the offseason see if Omar Minaya is still in love with him.

Thank God we got this guy. He has stones of steel. What a great pitcher.

Uribe and Crede play who wants to f*** this up.

Anderson getting close to passing Uribe. Getting ready to point and laugh at Uribe. HA HA

QUOTE(beautox @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 01:49 PM) Tadahito FTW! Delmon was gooched.

Is it past 75 pitches already?

Paulie's pull-o-matic is in full effect. Paulie you realize that every ball that comes off your bat doesnt need to go to the third baseman. There is an entire field of places to hit the ball. Right field is not out Paulie.

QUOTE(spiderman @ Aug 31, 2006 -> 11:48 AM) I live in Orland Park, and need to get High Speed Internet. Comcast is usually the default choice, but I hear people mention other companies that work just as well, and are cheaper. Do you guys use a different service ? Anyone companies you want to recommend is much appreciated! Thanks! In Orland you have SBC Yahoo DSL, Comcast, and maybe some wireless broadband providers you would have to google. http://www.onelasvegas.com/wireless/IL.html is a list of wireless broadband providers in the Illinois area. Remember the option though. You have DSL which is cheaper than cable. You have broadband wireless, which requires you to have an antennae on your house that most likely points to a nearby watertower for access. This is being rolled out like mad in Lake and McHenry County. You can get good speeds, but prices are similiar to cable for the most part. You can get something like Verizon Broadband Wireless that will allow you to take it with you, but it has dead zones depending on where you go that drop the speed down quite a bit. And finally you can use Satellite services if you have Direct TV or the same likes. That uses some caching technology locally, and still you see lag as you have to bounce off of a bird in space for all of your traffic. You are going to see at least almost a second delay before you hit the internet backbone. Some of your media based apps can time out, or VPN apps to work may not work with Directway. In Europe, specifically near London we are seeing some VDSL being rolled out. This allows for almost 5 times the speed of cable coming over your standard digital telephone connection. I dont know when this will be rolled out in the US, but I am sure some companies are looking at it. Unfortunately you have the local telephone companies competiting with the people that they have to provide service for, and that is why new DSL technologies are slow to hit the US. Hope this helps.

After the game they play "Have a nice Day" by Bon Jovi at the cell. Gooch and Dye tonight. Pods, hit the showers and please see Mr. Williams. He needs to talk to you about how you like Charlotte.

QUOTE(BigSqwert @ Aug 30, 2006 -> 09:58 PM) Has Jenks thrwon a 100mph pitch this year? Farmer making it sound like it can happen at any moment with Jenks. Not so sure about that. I was at a game at the cell earlier this summer where he hit 100. He is as dominate of a closer as there is. 99 and 100 are not all that different. For bobby its all about the hammer. If he gets that over, its over.

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Aug 30, 2006 -> 09:56 PM) Jenks no throwing hard We cant go by the Kmart gun that WCIU/Soxnet uses.

Paulie needs to work out of whatever funk he is in.

QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Aug 30, 2006 -> 09:47 PM) Have I ever said how much I love the royals Give them a big hug, after we leave there with 3 wins.

On the bench Pods just piddled his pants happy that he didnt kill the night with crapola play.

5-4 sox. Get Jenks up.

Thank you Gooch. There is the 2 run dong they have been waiting for.

Thank you Ozzie for not recognizing that we need to win this game. We have how many good lefties on the bench that can make contact with the man on third. But again you play the buddy buddy routine instead of being a manager and we lose out again. Thank Ozzie

Why in the name of god isnt Pods being pinch hit for. Gload isnt he a much much better hitter. This is more of Ozzie trying to make nice nice with a player, instead of doing what is best for the team.

We take the first ball right down the middle, and then swing at s***. Ozzie is trying to get Jon the win instead of the team.
