Brown remains on fire.

does whitesoxmanager always talk in the third person?

I didnt know that DJ hated Lima so much. He really doesnt like Lima's act at all

Pauly gets Lima Time!

Way to pitch around that walk Brandon. Good first inning.

Did DJ really just say "Swinging the Shalele"? Did I really just hear that?

What channel is the game airing on tonite? I have directv and both WCIU and Comcast are showing Cubs vs Brewers as the listing? Is it on ESPN or ESPN2?

Ron Gardenhire begs for Santana to get more respect, because an umpire missed a few pitches: So if a manager disagrees with a umpires strikezone, then the pitcher is being disrespected by the umpire? Give me a break Ron

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Jun 20, 2005 -> 01:28 PM) Why all the talk about another closer? What is wrong with Hermanson? If anything we need another middle reliever. Well, if you bring in a great closer, then you acquire a great middle reliever by default with Hermanson sliding to the middle reliever role, right?

Wasnt it reported around here that Guardado is pitching with a torn labrum or severely messed up shoulder?

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 20, 2005 -> 01:03 PM) Not with his contract situation. It's way too attractive to Houston for them to even consider dealing him. He is making the minimum now, and is eligible for arbitration after this year, right? If the Astros are rebuilding from within, then they probably would look to nab some prospects for someone that they are paying hardly anything, thats just the way I see it. If they can nab some good prospects for Lidge, it seems to be a good deal for them.

QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Jun 20, 2005 -> 12:59 PM) As long as we're dreaming...Brad Lidge? I dont think that is much of a dream, I think it falls into the realm of possibility the more that Houston loses.

I went to a game on my birthday in 1996 against the Brewers. I think Mike Fetters came in and gave up back to back to back homeruns to Thomas, Baines, and Ventura, a single to Lyle Mouton, and another homerun to Chad Kreuter. Birthday presents dont come wrapped any better than that.

QUOTE(Adam G @ Jun 20, 2005 -> 12:04 PM) It's good natured. He gives me s*** about the Sox when they're not doing well. His son plays with my dog. If its good natured and no malice, then by all means, let him have it. I read the original post and thought that taunting was the idea.

Why the JoeBo hate? I always had a sort of respect for him, he always got by on decent but not great stuff. Its not my style to rip on a journeyman pitcher who was made out to be something that he isnt by the Cub fan-dumb.

Sounds like a Cubs fan who gave up on Corey Patterson. It also sounds like some of virtual GMs I keep running across lately on this site.....

QUOTE(Al Lopez's Ghost @ Jun 19, 2005 -> 09:34 AM) He makes a Gazillion dollars. to be exact, eleventy billion dollars.

QUOTE(NUKE_CLEVELAND @ Jun 18, 2005 -> 08:54 PM) I thought we were going to extras when AJ popped up into the dugout. Choi had a good shot at that one. AJ threw the bat down because he thought he was out.

Aj kept looking and looking for that pitch, and Brazoban finally grooved him one. Great inning. Im still in disbelief at how that turned out, I thought we were cooked when Konerko flew out. Kudos to Willie ONCE AGAIN for putting himself in scoring position with two outs in the bottom of the ninth.

Hell Mutha f***in Yeah!!!!!!

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 01:09 PM) Game thread is below, bud I told you the boredom is killing me!

QUOTE(ScottPodRulez22 @ Jun 17, 2005 -> 12:20 PM) Who's the first baseman on your All-City team? 8.8% Derrek Lee, Cubs (126 responses) 91.2% Paul Konerko, White Sox (1311 responses) Domination!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Derrek Lee is being Konerkowned.

Ok, this really doesnt have alot to do with the game thread, but my boredom at work is killing me. I was just checking the power rankings on SI.com, and I cannot help but notice that Dan George bears a uncanny resemblance to Paul McCartney. My random thought of the day. On to the game, what kind of an out pitch does Houlton have? I havent heard much about him, other than his last start was pretty good(against the twins?). hopefully the AL Central can continue the domination of the dodgers via the White Sox. I dont expect anything less than a series win.

And while I am in on the conversation, I think that Marissa Miller from the last two SI swimsuit editions is the sexiest woman on the planet. I heard her on an interview with Steve Czaban last year, and she said she has like 3 sisters and they all look alike. Hotness x 4 = hard to beat.
