  1. QUOTE(lostfan @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 09:07 PM) This is the whole quote: "I think it's simplistic and naive to say people can spend their money better than the government. And the reason is, the reason we have government is to build community assets. And I don't care how rich you are, you can't build a freeway system by yourself, and that's why we have taxes. And I don't care how rich you are, you can't build a public education system by yourself. You can get you own child educated, but in this state we have something called universal education for all children. And so I think the notion that everybody can individually spend their money better than government I just think is trite, wrongheaded and anti-democratic." http://www.looktruenorth.com/limited-gover...-sure-but-.html Get that context outta here! It's all about quote-mining and taking sound bytes to completely change the meaning of what he said.
  2. QUOTE(almagest @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 02:05 PM) Stone said Danks looked tired, and was starting to leave the ball up. It was a good idea to get him outta there. Gameday pitch locations agreed with Stone. He looked like he was losing some control out there.
  3. QUOTE(iamshack @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:56 PM) Would have rather let Swish run, and sub Anderson in at Center in the bottom of the 8th, moving Swish to Right. His knee might be a little bruised.
  4. BA in for Swish on a pinch run/ defensive substitution
  5. QUOTE(SoxWS05 @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:50 PM) Westbrook has been nasty though.. His breaking pitches have been working great, but the Sox hitters aren't doing themselves much favors. Figures, the two guys being ridden the hardest here have provided the only runs for the Sox. Too bad Danks will only get a no decision for his fantastic effort today.
  6. QUOTE(JDsDirtySox @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:41 PM) Jermaine looked to come in on that ball with his first step. Stone and Farmer made that comment and said he did the same thing on the ball off of his glove yesterday.
  7. Garko with a double over Dye drives in Hafner from first.
  8. Bunting with Konerko, Dye, and AJ? Good one, Ozzie!
  9. QUOTE(GoSox05 @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:28 PM) Stupid Casey Blake. Good job, Casey Blake!
  10. QUOTE(scenario @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:15 PM) Has everybody simply forgot the epic rate at which Fields was striking out last year? It was Dave Kingman-like. Crede is looking just as bad if not worse so far this spring and these last three games.
  11. QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 12:13 PM) Danks is a beast, can we please just score one fricking run for the guy. If Juan is gonna get a hit, he has got to think opposite direction, in '04 when he was ridiculous, that's what he did. Close enough.
  12. QUOTE(kwolf68 @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 11:41 AM) Please tell me GameDay is wrong...Danks with an 86 and 84 mph fastball???? 90, 92, and 92 on the last three FB's. Maybe a bad reading?
  13. As bad as Westbrook is making the Sox offense look, Danks is pitching very well right now too.
  14. Gameday Audio is a good minute behind the live broadcasts and Gameday stats.
  15. 5 weak ground outs so far. Practicing for the DP ball?
  16. QUOTE(lostfan @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 10:01 AM) Still, if I ever see AJ strike out on that damn uppercut swing with the bases loaded or runners on 2nd and 3rd, I'm gonna go Michael Barrett on his ass. That being said, AJ is a .300 hitter when he wants to be. They commented on the radio broadcast yesterday that AJ wanted to "lead the league in hitting" this year. That may be a bit of a stretch, but hopefully it shows where his focus is going to be.
