QUOTE(jackie hayes @ May 14, 2005 -> 08:37 PM) So this is Cotts' 3rd yr, okay. 11 ip makes a season? This is the designated overreaction zone, I know that. As long as everyone doesn't really believe things are so bad -- w/ Garcia, Cotts, whatever. Did you watch the game. Major leaguers do not throw more than 3 pitchers over the head of batters. This is not an isolated experience, he has a problem throwing strikes. He has 7 walks in 11 innings.

Cotts is all that is left from the craptacular trio from last year. Cotts would walk a few guys on, Thriller would give up the runners, and Koch would stop all hope by giving up a home run in the 9th. We would rally and go down by one run. HOW DOES COTTS NOT HAVE ANY CONTROL IN YEAR f***ING THREE. YOU CANT THROW STRIKES RICKY VAUGHN MAYBE YOU NEED GLASSES.

Garcias 88mph fastball strikes fear in the hearts of all hitters. He couldnt protect a 4-1 lead in Tampa and now he blows a 5-2 lead. Cotts its year 3. Its time you learn how to throw a strike. I mean if the little leaguers can do it, you sure as hell can. The sneakyfast fastball isnt too hard to hit when you get 2-0 and 3-0 on every hitter. Walker, I have seen enough. NO control and is a lefty. We already have two of those on the team. Go back down to AAA and please send Baj back at least he attacks the strikezone.

Just got back from the game. Good crowd considering the supposed threat of thunderstorms. Picked up my HE GONE shirt in the parking lot. I was in the UD tonight and there was this group of cub fans that were yelling Sosa. One had a sosa cubs jersey and he had it crossed out with Duck Tape. About the 4th inning people started yelling, Sosa isnt here stupid cub fans. God are they a dumb group of people. After that game and the way they played it and won it. It fills me with SOX PRIDE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!![/size]. EAT s*** CUB FANS, EAT s*** REST OF BASEBALL. THE GOOD GUYS ARE HERE TO TAKE NAMES AND KICK ASS.

Just think, if Timo the slow man Perez got Zambrano rattled wait until Pods gets on base. Zambrano will have a break down.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ May 13, 2005 -> 08:14 AM) Dang, I hate to say this but they have an advantage in the pitching match ups. Hopefully our guys will be on their game. Alll we have to do is weather whatever strom and get into that gorgeous bullpen of theirs. Then win by 30.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ May 12, 2005 -> 04:21 PM) I need to be suspended if Neyer comes on here until he's gone so I don't make the site look bad. I would probably say something that would get me a permanent ban. I am pretty sure of it.

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ May 12, 2005 -> 04:07 PM) I have no problem with inviting Neyer, but we all know any debate with him won't be "sensible." I've been browsing WSI, and he's already (childishly) replied to several members' emails. If he mimmicks this behavior on Soxtalk , it won't be too pretty for Neyer's self-esteem. It wont be sensible, but entertaining. I can bet the farm that I would probably say something that would offend him and everything he has ever stood for.

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 12, 2005 -> 03:56 PM) He might make it here when he lets me know he wants to....he is busy right now, based on his last email to me ================ Maybe another day. I’m heading to Seattle early tomorrow morning, and in the meantime I’ve got a column to finish. -r Well we better stop bothering him, he needs all the time in the world to get his article together. I am sure its a riveting article comparing the genius of KW to that of lowlife Billy Bean I wonder how fast he can type on his speak-n-spell.

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 12, 2005 -> 03:46 PM) I wrote back to Mr Neyer and here is his response. What do you think folks? Would you like me to invite him here and we can talk baseball with him? As long as everyone promises to behave themselves ======================= Rob Would you like to have a sensible debate about the White Sox on a White Sox board? I promise it will not be childish and immature. Just pure baseball talk....if you would like to, let me know. I can send you a link to a website where there are some very astute baseball fans with who you could debate. Thanks Just a White Sox fan ========================= Well, sure. But I’m not sure what we’d debate. I don’t like the ballpark, or the uniforms. Those are just matters of pure opinion, and not things about which I’ll change my mind. And about the baseball . . . I mean, this spring I picked the White Sox to win the Central, and at the moment I think they’ve got a fine chance at reaching the postseason. So what’s to debate? I hope he comes here so he can see the f*** ROB NEYER thread. Hey I hope he doesnt get offended because just like he said "I am just giving my opinion, and I dont think I will change my mind about it"

Robs poor wittle royals This guy is a sad little royals fan. I would be all upset if my team was on the road to nowhere fast.

Paul (Chicago): Rob, if the Yankees are off to the start the White Sox are, all we will hear is how they can't be stopped from going to the WS. If Billy Beane makes the same moves as Kenny Williams with these results, Billy's hailed a genius. All I hear is people like Kruk and Brantley ripping the White Sox, saying they won't win the division. What does it take for the Sox of the Midwest to get some national respect? Rob Neyer: Oh, those poor, poor White Sox from the third-largest city in North America; oh, how my heart does weep for them. Look, the White Sox wear ugly uniforms in an ugly ballpark with an ugly name, and the truth is that it's just not easy to like them. Are they for real? Twenty-five wins on May 12 don't lie, and at the moment I'd give them roughly a 40 percent chance of reaching the postseason, because they have to compete with not only the Twins, but also maybe the Red Sox and/or Yankees and/or Orioles. Two of those teams will not reach the postseason, and I think the White Sox are one of the two least-talented teams in the group.

QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ May 11, 2005 -> 03:49 PM) Yup, I am f***ing die-hard! Sox4Life is on my ass too! :finger Right next to the one that says "Pound Me Hard"

You drag your pregnant wife in her 7th month down to Tuscon last year to watch the sox future battle in the springtime sun. This year you bring the entire family. You go to soxfest year in and year out. And even though they have the best record in baseball you live and die with each win and loss.

EAT s*** b****ES. In honor of Nuke

Dustin has been touched with the disease known as Walkiitis.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ May 11, 2005 -> 03:04 PM) Scrubs just blew another save opp, hilarious. They should sign Billy Koch. Hey lets trade Dingo for Angel Guzman. Hendry is enough of a mope ot make that happen.

Cliff pitched great. Last year Vis threw 95-97. Now he barely hits 93. Overuse of the slider?

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ May 11, 2005 -> 02:30 PM) Was Ozzie taking a s*** that inning? Talk about a slow hook... Hes a bit gunshy to go to the pen after Vis, Cotts and Dingo did their best Thriller, Cotts, and Koch impersonation.

Whats the bets on the grandslam being hit here to tie the game., ANY TAKERS

How does Cuba win so many gold medals with their pitchers walking everyone.

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ May 11, 2005 -> 02:26 PM) Singleton walks Get Duque outta there Ozzie GONG SHINGO TIME!!!!!!1

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ May 11, 2005 -> 02:22 PM) pitch him inside, outside, over the plate, put it on a tee. Whatever. It's basically the same result. Now talk about a funny match up. Felix Diaz vs. Paul Konerko with men on or Dye vs Jason Grilli with the game on the line

QUOTE(RockRaines @ May 11, 2005 -> 02:19 PM) wow, so the key to Dye is pitch him inside, he cant hit those. The key is to throw it near the plate and let the magic happen.

Dye strikes out after Kong tried to mash it to mars. Well instead of building on what you had the last time up. Go back to what doesnt work. PULL BASEBALL SON!!!!
