QUOTE(The Critic @ Oct 3, 2005 -> 04:14 PM) I saw that hyperstupid Woody Paige trying to hang a curse on the White Sox this morning on that 1st and 10 segment. That guy is the Lewis Black of sports - all yelling and twitching and no substance. Wow, just Wow... It's very possible that Boston wins this series, but predicting a sweep? Give me a break, Gammons! We will win at least 1 at home... and people say hawk and dj are homers (ok, they are, but so is Gammons)

Ok, so I live in NY and the Yankees are my #2 team (long story short - grew up S Side Chicago - Dad grew up a NYY fan, so I always followed both, have lived in NJ/NYC since 98 and have tix for the yanks). However, I cannot stand the media any longer. They are assuming it is going to be Yankees-Red Sox, when in reality, it is just as likely that it will be White Sox-Angels this year. I understand the history of those other 2 teams, but we are the #1 seed and playing well again. To tell you the truth, Anaheim scares me more than any of the AL teams. It will be an interesting playoffs for sure. I like the Yankees and am rooting for them in the first round, but nothing would satisfy me more than taking Boston out (just like the rest of you guys). I have tickets to Game 4 ALCS at Yankee Stadium if it happens, so I'd love to wear the Black and White and get mobbed in the Bleachas for a night! Go Sox, let's shut everyone up once and for all.

That post was touching, Smalls. I'm sorry for your loss. Your Dad is up there smiling right now. Let's ride this thing out all the way this year!

QUOTE(whitesoxmanager @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 10:58 PM) nice thing is that ny yankees are going to go with the horses against boston at year end just to make sure they don't make the playoffs. boston is gripping just as hard as our boys. You got it...I'm out in NY and the Yankees look great. I think that we'll fend off Boston for the Wild Card...not what I want, but I do think we'll still get in.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 10:11 PM) Welcome to Soxtalk. Nice Avatar. Thanks for the Welcome Jordan... can we get MJ back on the field?

This is a joke... At this rate, I think it's the Wild Card or nothing. Cleveland isn't slowing down and we aren't picking up... way to support BMAC w/ 1 run - it's 1 more than I expected to be honest.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Sep 22, 2005 -> 03:51 PM) Best Case Scenario... top of the 5th inning... it just starts to pour for 5 hours, game gets cancelled... Johan already threw 75 pitches and can not come back for any game in the series!!! That sounds great, but we all know that Johan will only have thrown 38 pitches by the top of the 5th. If El Duque was pitching, Brandon would have already come in for a few innings of mop up, so at least he's starting tonight. Baby steps...

QUOTE(SnB @ Sep 20, 2005 -> 02:04 PM) did this game start yet? seriously, it needs to soon. Yeah, I'm anxious too, but I'm in NY and will gladly be watching the Yankees (my #2 team) tonight. Just think, I may actually see some runs scored! Prove us all wrong and win 2 Sox!
