QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 12:01 PM) There was no need to put his head down and run for the ball because the CF wall was 420 ft. away. The main reason you put your head down is so you can gauge where the wall is, and that obviously wasn't necessary. Oh let me make note of that.........Not good to put head foward when running,because it doesnt slow you down at all to look back.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 01:04 AM) We are 5 games in and you are talking s***? Granted, somehow by blind luck we have Quentin in the lineup, the bulllpen pitching lights out, and the back of the rotation holding their own -- but hold off on the s*** talk at least until we are out of May. Shhhh.Let him go on,its funny.

Morissey didnt even mention all the times the idiot referred to Bartman on Around the Horn.How do they continue to have him on every show?There are so many good writers out there that do well in that format.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 09:28 AM) ESPN Sunday night baseball has never been very good to the Sox... I think this is going to be Tiger win #1. Yep.And the Tigs dont need much of a nudge to get rolling with some good momentum.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 09:38 AM) he caught it, Thats all I am concerned about right now. Such a petty thing to gripe about, whether he put his head down or not, sometimes outfielders lose the ball when they put their head down and run to the spot they think the ball is going to. Its not a gripe.Its a concern for future fly balls that he is not going to get to because his ass and face are pointing the same direction.

QUOTE(knightni @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 12:35 AM) weird. I before E except after C?

Steve, I agree with everything except for Swish being above average in center.An above average CF would be able to take their eye off the ball and run to the spot and wait for the ball to get to them,Swish watches the ball the whole way through and that slows him down alot.

Iam a taller version of Turtle from Entourage.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Apr 6, 2008 -> 08:28 AM) DD Lewis always makes a brilliant film or puts in a brilliant performance on a decent film, then dissappears for long periods of time until he feels the need to act again. I watched "In The Name of the Father" and was blown away by his performance. It was heartbreaking He is great,alot of times he stars in these ultimate bad ass masculine roles but in real life he is such a wussy.His role as "The Butcher" in the Gangs of New York is one of my all time favorite.

R.I.P. Moses.

It has to be Dank's start.Starting pitching will be the determining factor if we make the playoffs or not.Floyd and Contreras will be frustrating to watch all year in my estimation so Danks MUST be good for us to have a playoff push.

I come hear for breaking whitesox news.But slam takes most of my time up on soxtalk,love the music and film talk.But I cant stand gamethreads here and it is the one thing that makes me lose alot of respect for some of the posters here when it comes to sportstalk.There posts in gamethreads are exactly the type of stuff I cant watch a game with.Posters that have great thoughts in other threads are complete meatheads when the actual game starts.And there is no way to change all this,I will just stay away and count how many times the words suck and worst are used.You guys can go on the rollercoaster of emotions and I will sit back with the ones who are smart enough to enjoy baseball for better or for worse.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Apr 5, 2008 -> 05:47 PM) The only non major leaguer they have left on the club now is Toby Hall. Man, I can't stand having a catcher that not only can't hit, but who can't shut down the running game. The idea behind signing Hall was tremendous, but I wouldn't give him much more than a month to show that he's not the player he was last season (which I'm more than willing to put 100% of the blame on his nasty injury). At that point it will be time to call up Phillips or Lucy who are both head and shoulders above Hall defensively and given Hall's lack of offensive ability I honestly could care less what either Phillips or Lucy could do with the stick. I cant agree with you more on this.I know its very early but his swing looks terrible and he looks as if he put on about 15 pounds.That shows some lack of dedication,only Miggy Cabrera could get away with that kind of jelly.

QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 08:24 PM) I used to get so many questions about my s*** phone, but I don't really use it as much as everyone else. You still got the peanut phone.I had that phone for a few years and had no problems,its the Honda of all cell phones.

Good to see the golden child Quentin pop one.

I moved to first shift so I can catch more sox games and now I find myself missing every game.

QUOTE(pierard @ Apr 3, 2008 -> 03:12 PM) I haven't seen it but I planned to. Did you like Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz? I enjoyed the hell out of both, so I figure it gives a good starting place for comparison. Yes I liked both of those movies.All the jokes were predictable and cliche in this one.Bad.

BA is still on the sh** list and thats really a shame.

Ya,there is no reason to call them the bengals.ESPN has started this stupid thing of calling teams by something close to the name but not the name so now everyone does it.

Just think how bad this is all gonna be in June when we should be really really into the baseball season.We are going to be watching a team that is atleast 10 games back and we will be talking complete fire sale.Oh how fun!The Sox are already ruining my spring,next will be summer then the Bears will ruin the fall.I need to stop watching sports.

Honestly why do you guys care about the thread title?If I can recognize that its a game thread thats all that matters.If they want a yoke in it,fine with me.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 03:19 AM) quit whining and be more pissed offed with me cuz the Sox still haven't signed Bonds Why must you get him started?

QUOTE(Texsox @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 11:33 PM) Anybody got any 8-tracks and betamax movies? If Iam not mistaken,wouldnt people have laughed at a betamax reference even when it first came out?

Run Fat Boy Run was about as unfunny as it possibly could have been.Bad brit comedies are even worse than bad american comedies.Dont pay to see this movie,do yourself a favor.
