And for the bonus points... It was against Andy Hawkins and the Yankees at old Comiskey. We score 4 runs and got zero hits.

After what he said about SL a couple of years ago, I could hardly blame him.

a-men

This is what I have been waiting to see. Some kind of a wake up call. I guess we will see if it works or not.

God I hope you are right!

FRANK IS HITTING SECOND??? WTF????

Koch kinda does mess it up but still. Hes the closer and the most important guy in the pen, without him you cant give the pen much credit. And White has been below average, over 4.00 for a bullpen guy is not good. I think hell pull together if given the chance, but a of now, hes not getting any credit from me. Gordon surprised pretty much everyone here and got his ERA down to 3.94 so congrats. Hes been quite dependable. Marte, Glover and Wunsch have all been great. Has Wunsch even allowed a run yet? Nope. Just one hit. And I believe that was on an error. And don't forget Kelly didn't give up a run in spring training either!

And if you hit double play I say f*** you, I hit myself (end bad mocking of Joboo scene in major league)

Thanks for posting that, I thought my computer was F'd up and was ready to spaz!

Yup we are flying to DFW on the 3rd, and still planning on the game the 4th. My best friend gets married on the 5th. It ought to be fun! Try to save some extra money and we will all go to the Ft Worth stockyards for dinner.

Just email me, post it here, or post it on the blogger site directly. Or you can even post it the night before on ESPN. I'll find it! We couldn't be playing the PTC contest without you setting up the site in the first place! hardly seems fair for you to be out of it.

I think it would be quicker to gather up all of the guys who have good stories to tell about KW!

as I live in the eastern time zone I will be going to eb early, so someone please add my chat comments at appropriaate moments: if KW is fired by game time: "wow!" "thank you" "I feel good..." "way to go" If KW is not fired by game time: "f*** you D Lo" "not another f***ing double play" (probably need to use this one maybe 2 or 3 times) "oh f*** another inning with runners left on base" "oh wow, another f***ing 5 hits for us" "when is Ward being f***ing fired" LMAO!

GROAN :puke

Out of curiousity does anyone know if we were the first team to have both a black GM and Manager at the sametime? I will say JR's minority hiring record can't be questioned. If you look at the Bulls and Sox, he has always hired the guys who he thought were the most loyal to him and the organization, regardless of race. He has an excellent minority hiring record to back him up if anyone does b****.

Heck I could do like I do on ESPN and post my softball stats and hope a Sox scout comes to see me. I play D, I hustle, and I can even hit a little!

If you have a more accurate discription of the last two weeks let me know!

Must be in the guys porapotties only!

Have you seen the pick to click standings lately? Who'z yer daddy? Preseason champion my ass!

The key tonight is to not let the A's score first. If they do we will quit again. Just watch.

They are willing to pay key players as long as they toe the line. Plus they gave so much money to Koch, so why couldn't they have given it to Foulke?

http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/playoffs2003...tory?id=1550082 Sports columnist Bob Ryan was suspended by The Boston Globe for one month without pay after saying on television that the wife of New Jersey Nets guard Jason Kidd, who was allegedly the victim of domestic abuse, needed someone to "smack her." "Bob Ryan's comments were a clear and egregious violation of the standards of The Boston Globe," Globe editor Martin Baron said in a statement. "Bob has been told in no uncertain terms that his remarks were offensive and unacceptable." The columnist was also barred from appearing on radio or television for one month. Ryan also works for ESPN as a regular panelist on "Around the Horn" and "The Sports Reporters" and is a regular guest on ESPN Radio. Ryan, who has since expressed regret, made the comments Sunday night during a segment on WBZ-TV's Sports Final show. Kidd said Boston fans insulted his wife and 3-year-old son during Game 4 of the 2002 Eastern Conference finals at the FleetCenter. Fans taunted Kidd with chants of "wife beater," referring to 2001 charges that he had struck his wife, Joumana. Kidd eventually agreed to a plea and received six months of court-ordered counseling. The Celtics and Nets began another playoff series on Monday, prompting Ryan and host Bob Lobel to discuss whether Kidd and his family will receive similar treatment when the teams come to Boston for Game 3 on Friday. During the show, Ryan said Kidd should expect taunts from the crowd, then criticized the Kidds for using their son "as a prop" and called Joumana Kidd an "exhibitionist" Then, in a comment that was not picked up clearly on tape, he said: "Oh great. I mean she needs (inaudible) to smack her." At that point, Lobel interrupted, saying, "You can't say that. What's happening here? You know what, I will give you a mulligan on that." Ryan retorted: "I'm not looking for that." Lobel persisted, saying, "You just don't want to smack her. You just don't mean to say that. Really, tell me you don't?" "Why should I say anything different than I said all playoffs last year?" Ryan said. In a statement Tuesday, Ryan apologized to Joumana Kidd for the "inappropriate and offensive remark." "It was, of course, atrocious judgment on my part," he said. "I wish to state clearly that I am aware of the very real problem of violence against women in our society, and that in no way is it a joking matter." Nets players and coaches called for Ryan's dismissal. Speaking during practice Tuesday, New Jersey coach Byron Scott said Ryan "should be out of a job." "Just tell him to come right in here and he can say that in front of me and Jason and some of our players," he told reporters. "He'll see how well he'll be received." Kidd called the comments "unfortunate" and said his wife "felt sorry if she offended (Ryan) in any way."
