QUOTE(SoxFan1 @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 09:10 PM) All the teams you listed, are actually playing like they want to win and guess what, they are! When you want something and work hard to get it, you acheive that goal. Doesn't sound fimiiar? Because the Sox are not doing that. They do NOT deserve to make the playoffs. Save the humiliation. Well...not the Red Sox...they're down to what, a .5 game lead now?

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 09:06 PM) I'm not sure you understood my reference Oh. Terribly sorry.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 09:05 PM) And are any of those 15 available this off-season? Bill Mueller.

QUOTE(Greg Hibbard @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 09:04 PM) In short, was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Dude, that was the Japanese. Wow.

QUOTE(GoRowand33 @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:51 PM) they need to put it together i suggest watching a video of notable accomplishments that they have done this year That might just bring them all to tears.

Mark...I'm gonna keep this one as simple as I can. PLEASE.

"That boy is our last hope." "No. There is another."

QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:43 PM) I thought the game against the Royals where Dye bobbled two balls within oen inning was the worst loss of the season. Nope. This is FAR worse. With the national attention beamed on us it was proven, for all to witness, which team is playing with emotion and which is playing scared. 2.5 games now. We've already set a bench mark as the first time in Major League history to have a 15 game lead fall below 3 games. f***ing chokers. I still think the Royals game was far worse, just because it was far more embarassing, stupid, and predictable. When you walk Indians, you're supposed to lose. You're not supposed to lose to the Royals after retiring Sweeney in the 9th.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan99 @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:43 PM) We still lead the Yankees by 4 games which is a fairly commanding lead at this point in the season. That 15 game lead was pretty commanding too. Right now, I'm not even convinced this team can play .500 on the way out.

When we lost that last game to the royals...i was furious. Now I'm just sad.

QUOTE(farmteam @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:39 PM) Do you have an eight ball? When were the Sox mathematically eliminated? Who would have thought it would even be mathematically possible?

We now need Mark Buehrle and Jon Garland to pitch the games of their lives. Mark...remember last year, when you nearly threw that perfect game against Cleveland?

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

Timo is on deck.

Come on Paulie... Doo doo doo doooo Doo doo doo doooo Doo doo doo doooo Aaahhh Aaahhh Where have all the good men gone And where are all the gods?

Carl...please...we beg of you....

3rd strikeout for Iguchi. Tears...

Come on Pods...do something to get on base.

Joe...do whatever you can to draw a walk. Whatever you can. Draw a walk. Please draw a walk.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:22 PM) Unlike the White Sox, if you throw a meatball to the Indians, they're going to hammer the ball. And more often than not, it still stays in the park. We have been beaten this season more often by walks than by the long ball. Count on it.

2 out walks. 2 out walks. f***ing bases on balls. Just throw the ball down the heart of the plate. I don't care if they kill the ball. Just please don't walk them. Give your defense a chance to do something. We have been murdered tonight because of 2 walks.

There's that insurance run.

We have not retired Hafner tonight. That has to help that OPS.

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:17 PM) On Thursday night, if we haven't won a game on this home stand, when we're getting no hit by Johan in the 5th. It'll happen tomorrow if we're losing in the 9th.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Sep 19, 2005 -> 08:16 PM) so do you let Crede hit vs. Wickman -- or does ozzie go to Timo or Gload i'll say it will be timo Let Crede hit...at least on occasion he has some power.
