Goes through a few Beverly stops, then Blue Island, Midlothian, Oak Forest, 2 Tinley Park stops, 2 Mokena stops, New Lenox, and Joliet. If it's running express it goes straight from Midlo to Lasalle Station with a couple variations on that as well. I live in Tinley and walk to the Oak Park ave stop from my condo for work everyday, this is pretty cool, however I feel like I will probably still drive to games.

QUOTE (BobDylan @ Jan 23, 2009 -> 04:44 PM) I thought they were Armor? Yeah, I'm pretty sure they are Armour too.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jan 23, 2009 -> 03:49 PM) and f***ing amazing.... I really wish dollar dog Thursdays still existed. I'd get three dogs and a beer and not feel like I was totally ripped off... Then pile the ketchup and onions on those bad mother f***ers and watch a good old game of baseball. Oh Lord, please bring summer ASAP. One time my buddies dad came back to our seats with some dogs with ketchup slathered all over em for us, I nearly vomited as I choked it down. I won't miss the Best's as long as they are replaced with Vienna Beef or Hebrew National, both have superior dogs IMHO.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 8, 2008 -> 09:45 AM) Cowley and OC didnt get along personally, and Cowley is someone who both holds a grudge and lets his personal feelings infiltrate his reporting. Check out his history, alot of his collegues felt the same way about him. I would take his opinion with a grain of salt here. Cowley repeatedly took jabs at Quentin this year because he "has no personality" and "is a terrible interview". Just made Quentin sound like he's a real jagbag. When the real story should have been that Quentin takes his job seriously, and would rather spend his time working on his game and doesn't care to spend his time playing nice with the beat reporter. Joe comes off as a guy that expects to be buddies with the players to deal with the mundane routine of his job, and gets pissy when players don't care to spend much time with him. Acts like the working the beat is beneath him, well there's easily thousands of guys that would love to have his job and do it better than he does.

QUOTE (kwolf68 @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 06:48 PM) Im watching the damn game...and the curve to Swisher was a strike. If you have some extenstential view of it that gives you a better view than I then Id love to see it, but the pitch to Swisher was STRIKE 3... It's even with the plate when it's in the glove, it's at least 6 inches outside while crossing it, I just went frame by frame.

QUOTE (fathom @ Oct 3, 2008 -> 05:25 PM) Uribe's been really bad lately. Watching the Cubs/Dodgers last night, I was thinking the same thing and wishing we made a deal for Casey Blake. Not that he's great or anything, but I'd certainly rather have Blake and Uribe than Uribe and Fields for the playoffs. Oh well.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 02:25 PM) I didn't hear them talking about it, but the post said they were given opportunities to be there and chose to go home. If they were left off the roster, then why would anyone be upset that they went home? It was guys that are not on the playoff roster, Farmer made it sound like they made all the arrangements for these players to travel with the team then last minute the players bailed and decided to stay home. Also that an unnamed player was pissed when he came back from the minors and didn't have his old locker and wanted to know why it was given to a younger player, I'm guessing MacDougal. Just the way Farmer was talking made it sound that management wasn't pleased with any of these guys. I'm just speculating, don't hang the messenger.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 02:22 PM) Anyone who chooses to go home instead of going to the playoffs is a loser and a coward. Sounds like it was a few guys, possibly Crede also? Not sure.

Stone and Farmer talking about guys that were left of the playoff roster who were given the opportunity to be with the team, but chose to go home. Can't watch the game right now, anybody know who their talking about? They sound like the Sox brass aren't happy about it. Sounds like one guy who has worn out his welcome is MacDougal.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 1, 2008 -> 10:09 PM) I don't see how that would be wise at all. Javy is a well paid big league pitcher who has been in the rotation all year and capable of a good outing. He's not hurt or anything. It's not like Richard is some certain star in the making who deserves the ball. He's just Richard. This makes perfect sense to go with Javy. Hopefully the third time's the charm (since Oz calling him out). Seems like a good idea now eh?

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 02:11 PM) nice sac bunt Juan! Gameday audio is delayed damn near 1 full minute to the guys doing pbp on here.

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Oct 2, 2008 -> 02:10 PM) kevin hickey is the pitching coach of the rays -- wasn't he in houston in 05? Yeah, he was on 670 this morning.

QUOTE (scenario @ Oct 1, 2008 -> 07:36 PM) One of the main reasons for having Danks go 3rd is that the Rays hit 20 points worse as as team against lefties this year. And their power stats drop off a table too. OPS drops by 50 points. So... to improve your chances of beating them... throw every quality lefty you have at them first. I'm dead serious when I say I'd rather see Clayton Richard start game one. Javy's wet the bed the last two starts which were huge games, this stat just confirms my belief.

Anybody know where I can get 45,000 black ski masks at a reasonable price?

QUOTE (soxfan3530 @ Sep 30, 2008 -> 03:22 PM) 104!!! BLACKOUT!!!! I'm also in 104, row 25, currently listening to Thunderstruck on repeat in my cubicle. Pardon my vulgarity, but if everyone is as jacked as I am right now, the cell is gonna splooge tonight.

QUOTE (Molto @ Sep 29, 2008 -> 07:57 PM) got two. bleachers. it's all luck. Yeah, I got 4 above the Twins bullpen, but row 25. Can't complain.

QUOTE (Brian @ Sep 29, 2008 -> 04:29 PM) They can't stream the game online at 670thescore.com. MLB owns the rights for internet streaming. Well that's a terrible inconvenience.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Sep 29, 2008 -> 04:25 PM) Got my computer streaming it on radio...warned my coworkers I may go a little crazy. Lets get some runs right here!!! I'm doing the same, was working fine, all of a sudden it switched over to some Sporting News Radio, I'm listening to effing Jason Campbell talk about the Dallas Cowboys right now, yet it still says I'm on 670, WTF>?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?

QUOTE (jenks45monster @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 09:51 PM) I wouldn't want to be put down on my bad play with three (possibly four games) to play. Would you? It's only added pressure on the players. A good time would be anytime besides now. Like I said, the players don't need added pressure, especially now. Why would I respect Ozzie Guillen? You don't? He's the manager of this team and has done a pretty good job in that position in my opinion. I really don't care if he's "consistent and rational". He's not there to baby the players. OC should just learn how to shut his mouth. He causes too much drama. Learn to shut his mouth? The guy nailed it right on the head, team loaded with talent can't beat the TWINS. Let's be honest, the Sox are Twins are both pretty bad, neither team would/will do jack squat in the playoffs. Everybody gets too wrapped up with how good of a guy players are. I couldn't care less if the team was full of the biggest scumbags in the world as long as they won. You're telling me that OCAB put's too much pressure and drama into the clubhouse? If these guys can't handle the pressure of playing baseball, I don't think they would have made it this far.

QUOTE (aboz56 @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:38 PM) Wait, you're calling a guy who helped lead the Sox to a World Series a bum and Orlando Cabrera a winner? The Angels surely didn't miss Cabrera and he's not exactly lighting the world on fire for the Sox. Yes, Paul Konerko is a bum. He hit a grand slam 3 years ago and I thank him for it, but he can take his sorry ass out of town with his 12 million a year and his 5 LOB. You can't honestly tell me there aren't 100 different ways you would rather spend that 12 mil. Captain of the team should show a little commitment and lift an effing weight or two and quit being such a morose piece of crap.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 06:45 PM) He's been subtly doing this all season and it's funny that he takes flack for it, because he's dead right. I know I'm one of two here who want him back next season. Guy shows up to play, the captain, Paul Konerko, is a joke, get that bum outta here. I know OC isn't coming back, but I think we need more guys that are winners. Sox are a team of mental midgets. I want changes.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 11:12 PM) Our pitching held them tonight and we lost. Odds ain't good. Let's hope Twins for once play like the mediocre team they are and we salvage one game. What did they do tonight? Beat the ball into the ground and bloop broken bat knocks into the outfield. Is there anything impressive about the Twins? It's an embarrassment the Sox can't compete with this rag tag group of scrubs on yearly basis. The Twins are a joke, the White Sox may be a bigger one.

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 5, 2008 -> 01:34 PM) Maybe Zambrano will fracture his penis by his continuous cup adjustment? Hopefully this is a lesson for CQ. All I know is we'll have the most intense cheerleader in history. Damn near spit my diet coke out on my keyboard/monitor.
