In all reality, we should have won today, and lost yesterday. So the fates turned it around. Going into this weekend almost everyone here HOPED we would win 2 out of 3 games and we did. It is a series win and the pen will be fresh if we need it for the Twins.

Well I was closest to the tie breaker DK, do you want somemore suggestions for questions? We all can throw more out there and you can pick what you like,

I told you so, I told you so. WTF are you two years old? Did I disagree with you about missed opportunities? This is the second time I have said this so I will type it really slowly so maybe you will get it this time. You made a broad generalization about a player based on one single AB, that was proved narrowminded when you look at the FACT that is he the best hitter the Sox have this year with RISP. But don't let me stand in the way of your perpetual negative rants or anything. Go ahead and make up some stuff that I said here and have a schizo-good time! Perpetual negativism? You wish you were as high on this team's prospects as I was coming into this season. You only wish. Short f***ing memory you have. Making s*** up? When you expect our 7-9 hitters to get us rolling and I challenge that, I am making stuff up?! WTF? Or when you bring up everyone's RISP numbers to whitewash the fact that Lee--among other players I mentioned--f***ed up numerous times.....I am making stuff up too? . All I did was state the fact and mention a baseball cliche (it;s not what, but when) in regard to this team pathetic situational--or any--execution....Yeah, buddy, keep on making irrelevant, neutral-polarity statements in order to corect my "generalizations" and then get mad when someone dares to actually read something into your excuse-making posts....Statements have implications and your "defending" Lee was very apparent, I was well within reason in my interpretation of your post. Just because you never uttered "I am hereby excusing one Carlos Lee of any wrongdoing", doesn't mean you didn't indirectly...And who f***in' cares if there are other Sox player who are worse than CLee--he still couldn't come through (RISP of 275 ain't NOTHING to be ecstatic about either) when we needed him and neither could most Sox players....Result? Sox pissed the game away. That was my WHOLE point even when the game was 0-0 tie....Pardon me for being right at the end. And, yes, the very little things and lack of execution on seemingly dismissable plays early on....ONCE AGAIN came back to bite this team on it's collective ass. If we are up 3-0 as we should have been through 8 innings, Colon stays in, has enough room for error and we probably escape.....this was a 6th winnable game we tanked in the last 2 weeks...which only reinfoces another point of mine: Sox are still terrible and will be so until proven otherwise. 9-1 run in the next 10 games will be a start. Untl the STFU, will ya? (You have no reason to be upset with me, none whatsoever. ...Keep your passive-agressive BS to yourself, k? I don't wish to fight with you, but I will if you want me to...you still haven't responded to my "correction" of your 2000 team hitting theory BTW, not that it matters in the end) Wow, do you just look to argue? I think BMR is exactly right, you just love to fight. Heck you sound like an ex-girlfriend of mine, just looking for something to point out as wrong to start something. As if you did read my first two posts, PUTTING WORDS IN MY MOUTH IS MAKING s*** UP! There was that hard? No need to delve into what obviously is window dressing to try to improve what you know you originally did. As to that... Defending Lee is what I was doing. To make a broad statement based on one single AB, is that solid analysis? You would have thrown a hissy fit if someone else had done that, why are your words so much more defensible? Of course Carlos screwed up there. That much was pretty obvious, and being an exESPNer, it was a pretty kenblanksesque post to use one AB by the most effective player on the team as "the story of this season". I have been on message boards long enough to not care if someone doesn't see eye to eye with me on the game. But it is utter ignorance to start putting words into peoples mouth and make long winded rampling speeches on something that was never even said! You should know better than that, right? As to 2000, if guys like Sandy Alomar, Herbert Perry and Chris Singleton hit like Olivo, Rowand, and Crede have hit this year, do you think we win 95 games? Do you think we win 85 games? Of course the pitching is the key. We would be 15 games out of first place if the pitching had been anywhere near as bad as it was last year. Loiaza has been a god send. And as for your psych 101 analysis, thanks but I already had that class. And just out of curiousity, what do you call someone who tries to hide behind a keyboard, looking for arguements to give themselves a sense of self-worth?

His finger is hurt. Rooney and Farmer said it early in the pregame show and repeatedly throughout the broadcast.

That's a home town scorekeeper...

Unfortunately the Hawks are bad and really have no hope for the future. It is sad really. I might have to adopt myself a new hockey team.

Damn Maggs with another GIDP

I bet that comes from the bench. Jerry made him bunt with 2 strikes. BTW Colon is at 81 pitches through 6 innings pitched.

Zambrano is now at 105 pitches after the lead off infield hit by Harris.

about a minute I would say. It helped that no one before me got the answer though. Kind of a tough question.

It took me 3 busy signals to get through and win!

He should have. He just put on a big time show basically showed up the ump big time. Z won't get a call the rest of the game now. Idiot.

Thanks man. I am excited about the $100 GC to the Grandstand gift shop. I think I am going to get a new jersey.

a nice classy to to talk to fellow posters. How to make friends and influence people?

I WON THE TRIVIA CONTEST!!! Yeah for me. On ESPN 1000, the question was who were the Sox reps when the all star game was last at Wrigley. It was Ozzie and Thigpen.

Yeah, but we both know that Lee would have just hit into a bases loaded 6-4-3, so it's less painful this way. Carlos went to right center nicely for the first Sox hit, today. Ever heard of "it's not what, but when you hit it"? Lee dumped a single with bases empty but choked with 2&3rd... Story of this season. Lee is hitting .284 this year with RISP. He is hitting the best of all of the Sox starters by almost 20 points. Maggs is hitting .266 for 2nd best. On the other end Konerko is hitting .117 RISP, Valentin .191, Jimenez .227, and Frank .231. As a team they are hitting .229 with RISP. Keep making excuses....I am a fan of Lee normally....BUT I AM NOT A FAN OF SQUANDERING AWAY OPPORTUNITIES. I mentioned other players besides him....terrible situational hitting is a HUGE problem on this team. We sould be up 3-0 if Jmenez and Maggs do thier jobs. Once again where did you see excuses? You made a broad sweeping statement about when people hit, and I gave you the facts about this team this year. Seriously, quit putting words into my mouth.

He called pitches way further outside strikes to some of the less players.

This ump is horrible. He should have called out Frank twice already and he should have called out Maggs there. Plus he should have called Sammy out also. This guy has superstaritis.

Yes it is.

Not the Chicago White Sox but the college world series. Rice wins last nignt and with a win today wins it all. Stanford does lead 1-0 early.

They must want to add to Chan Ho Park and their stable of quality pitching

Now that lineup beats yesterday's. Congrats jerry. No matter what happens, JM is still a dumbass The sad thing is the Sox outmanaged the Cubs yesterday, BIG TIME!
