Christmas in September.

QUOTE(JUGGERNAUT @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 04:31 PM) George doesn't count. He's serving his 2nd term. All that counts is the impact he has on local elections of senators & house members. Those are driven mostly by local issues & the GOP seems to have the upper hand. As for GOP represenatives & senators from the great state of Texas has any of this stuff really hurt their re-election bids? I doubt it. Of course it hasn't hurt them in Texas...Tom Delay's mid-session Redistricting locked all of the Republican Congressmen in that state into districts that are as safe as humanly possible.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 05:26 AM) Haven't the Angels already said that PK will be their number one target in the offseason? We're going to outbid Anaheim? No, we're not. PK will get more money than he's worth, a lot more. And that will mean that we'll have to get a 1B (or possibly 3B) through a trade. That's fine by me. I've been saying that Konerko has had his foot out the door ever since he took a completely selfish approach at the plate the first three months of the season. The guy was and still is looking for a big payday, and I don't mean the candy bar, though that wouldn't surprise me either since he's a fat piece of crap. Some in the Angels have suggested that...but there's always the question of how much the Angels will be willing to spend, given that they already have the #3 payroll I believe in all of baseball. Plus, they do have some youth on the way up at 1b, and that might give them reason to not want to sign the big contract guy - something similar to what they did with Glaus.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 07:38 AM) I've heard he wants to try starting again. It might be worth a shot, and if it doesn't work out, you have a stellar reliever again. You're assuming that he can just flip from being a struggling starter to a dominant reliever with ease. That isn't always the case.

QUOTE(bigredrudy @ Sep 28, 2005 -> 07:37 AM) The White Sox would have to end the season with a 7 game losing streak to at least not get into a playoff for the wildcard. It wouldn't be the first one this year.

Jose...Jose Jose Jose.....Jose....Jose..... Shred these bastards! I hate to say it Jose...but I think we need a shutout from you tonight!

:puke I'm going home and having dinner. I can't take this for 2 more innings.

2 outs. Aaron...come on, please...

And Podsednik fails to move the runner over. ARRGGGHHHH. Just f***ing bunt if that's what it takes.

The dreaded leadoff walk. Seriously...that's 5 walks today by this guy, and none of the first 4 have scored. How sickening is that?

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 05:35 PM) Need to have a big inning here. Hell, I'd settle for anything but a miniscule inning. A small, even a medium inning would work fine.

Viz is warming up.

Well....Tampa...we're gonna need you to sweep those bastards. Please?

By the way, Julio Lugo is my hero.

Oh. My. f***ing. God.

Well, runner on 1st, 2 outs.

Our 4 and 5 hitters and our 6th place automatic out slot coming up this inning. Come on Paulie and Dye....lay into one.

There's some revenge for flipping the bat...the good kind.

Farmer still wants Infante's head.

QUOTE(WSoxMatt @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 05:07 PM) As usual we give the run right f***ing back!!! Seriously, can you actually blame the pitching for these recent debacles? Any of them?

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 05:04 PM) True, but with the way they've been hitting McCarthy, we need to start getting a few runs. He has allowed a whopping 1 hit. f*** I should not have said that.

QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 05:04 PM) yankees are getting killed With that offense...a 5-1 lead over the Yankees is not the Yankees getting killed.

So...all of y'all who were saying that the solution to our problems was to put Aaron in the 3 hole...yeah.... Hey, I just passed 5000 posts.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Sep 27, 2005 -> 05:03 PM) I got a feeling that Pods is going to be running during this AB. He should...if I were them I wouldn't even offer a throw.

Well, here again is our best guy with RISP.
