Milkman delivers

Iguchi is hands-down the best player on this team right now. Thank you, Tadahito. You are f***ing great.

It's never good when you think to yourself, "Wow, I'm glad _____ made it through 4 innings." Unfortunately, that's how I feel most days with Hernandez.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 09:29 PM) At what point do we start saying that we might have to acquire a SS? Uribe's offense has been worse than Crede's offense has been over the last month. But Uribe's had extended hot streaks, so can reasonably expect another one at any point. When he gets hot, he's absolutely unstoppable.

QUOTE(ReinsdorfSucks @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 09:12 PM) you're pretty dense aren't ya? who said castilla? didn't see his name brought up. when you know what you're talking about then post. cause otherwise you look like a jackass. Take it easy, he was kidding. People gotta stop starting fights.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 09:11 PM) Remember when Konerko used to go the opposite way to hit a liner? If this is the way he's going to continue to swing for his career, I hope that we don't even consider resigning him. I swear the answer to that is $$$$$!!!! More homers = more $

Oh.My.God. How slow is Konerko? Nice way to kill a possibly rally with one swing.

They're talking about thunder and lightning, I hope this game gets rained out before the 5th inning if the whole game's gonna be like this.

El Duque's damn near 60 pitches through two innings. We need some offense, let's go get some. I'm sure glad that Pablo shouldn't be coming up this inning so he can f*** up for the fifth time today.

QUOTE(Wedge @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 08:58 PM) What message is he sending? That you can't f*** up four times in 2 innings and keep playing? 4-3 Rockies now. You f***ed this game up royally, Pablo.

Pablo f***ing Ozuna. God damn it.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 08:52 PM) This looks like the typical 3rd game of the series after we won the first two games in the series. Any time you bench 3 starters, you're likely going to have a downgrade in ability on the field, both at the plate and on defense. We just expect it now. I never feel like we're going to win the 3rd game of a series. Duque K's the catcher.

Wow, Ozuna, you are officially a s***bag. s*** line-up biting us in the ass again.

Wow, Ozuna is just an awful baserunner. Just f***ing terrible. Maybe this is why he hasn't found a permanent home?

Widger throws the ball into centerfield, man on 3rd with 0 outs. And Duque's thrown about 35 pitches already. K, 1 out.

QUOTE(ReinsdorfSucks @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 07:04 PM) anyone else a lil worried that el duque's breaking stuff won't break in coors? I'm sure we're all a little worried. The good thing is that we've already won the first 2 games, so it won't hurt as much. We can still win this game, it'll probably just be a little harder. I wanna be the first team to sweep in Colorado this year.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 06:50 PM) Here are the lineups: Ozuna 3B Iguchi 2B Rowand CF Konerko 1B Everett LF Dye RF Widger C Uribe SS El Duque Well, besides Harris not being in the game, that's the normal "should-be-a-sweep" lineup. Timo's not in there...but I'm tired of making jokes about him. Let's win this one anyway.

QUOTE(Antonio Osuna @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 05:25 PM) Thing is, if the Cubs end up in the postseason and Prior and Wood are healthy in body and mind, the Cubs are a lock for the World Series title. That's not what I call pleasing, and it'd be just enough to ruin a first-place finish by the Sox. So, yes, there is a reason to worry about them.

How'd this kid not see the shark at all? Aren't those things f'n huge? I can understand him not seeing it before it bites him, but how in the hell did he not see it after it bit him? This blows my mind and scares the hell out of me.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:56 PM) A pimp that goes by the name of scott skiles. Ha, ok. I don't watch basketball at all and I thought Skiles had hair. I kind of thought it was that guy from The Shield and Fanastic Four (which looks like an awful movie).

QUOTE(sox-r-us @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:27 PM) We are not that great of a team, and the Cubs are not that bad of a team. Hopefully we win the series What the hell are you talking about? We are the f***ing best team.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 03:51 PM) There is still plenty of time for them to fall ten games back. I highly doubt we get him but it is not out of question just tet, in my opinion anyway. The Phillies have choked and sucked out loud the last few years, I have no doubts that they will do it again this year. Having said that, there will be more than a few teams looking for a veteran closer at the deadline, so I don't think we'll get him anyway. EDIT: Qwerty, who is that in your avatar?

I know this isn't a realistic answer, but what is Nick Johnson's contract status? Is he signed for longer than this year? He'd look good in a Sox uniform.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 02:01 PM) Give me an example of this good play. 2 hits does not a good player make. Bad fielding, low avg, bad pinch hitter, not good in many positions, overpaid, and your 2 foot long sig full of quotes are all bad things. Haha, that was great.

QUOTE(TheBigHurt @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 01:56 PM) Even though the opposition here is overwhelming, I agree. Timo hasn't been in very many games this year, but those he has been in he's played well. How anyone can insult him an call him a bad player is beyond my comprehension. I've seen good stuff from him considering how little time he's gotten in. He hasn't been in very many games? He has plenty of at-bats. He's played well? No, no he hasn't. I'd stop being so critical of Timo if a few others would stop making him out to be good. He sucks, period.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Jun 8, 2005 -> 08:00 AM) Actually most home schoolers I know have more social interactions with a wider group of people than kids in regular schools. The home school groups are really well organized. Sports leagues, field trips, etc. Another plus is most curriculums are completed in about half a day, leaving the other half for interactions in the "real world". The only kids I've ever heard of personally that were home-schooled had panic attacks when they had to go to high school or college. But, again, those are probably just a small minority.
