Time to start another winning streak We are 7-3 in Sept!! Let keep the momentum on our side!! GO SOX!!

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 09:48 AM) For next season, which shows the main aim this off-season for this lineup is to get a #2 hitter, unless someone like Aaron Rowand can fill the void; http://www.dailysouthtown.com/southtown/co...ia/x11-ard1.htm Actually, I don't know why it hasn't been tried yet this year.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Sep 11, 2005 -> 12:21 AM) I guess losing in 3 or 4 in the first round is acceptable to some people. They can always say "atleast we got there." That's not good enough for me. This team broke my heart in 93. We didn't even get a chance in 94. Another pathetic showing in 2000. I admit, saying I hope we miss the playoffs is a little steep, but I can't take another 3 and out first round showing this time around. And that's exactly what we're headed for. Let me see if I follow your "logic" The fact that we are not jumping off a roof means we accept losing. But your suggestion and/or wish that the Chicago White Sox LOSE is rational because you can't handle them losing in the playoffs. In your assesment, if failure is an option...don't try. Sounds like you accept losing more than we do.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Sep 10, 2005 -> 04:33 PM) Crossed the line there. So your saying you would rather the Sox just choke in the regular season, and not have a chance to win the whole thing? Why again are you a Sox fan? Explain this, because it should be good.... I've heard pessimistic people on this site, but NEVER have I heard someone wish the White Sox to NOT make the playoffs when the Magic Number is 15. Just so they don't see them lose in October. That is unreal.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2005 @ Sep 10, 2005 -> 03:20 PM) I hate to say this, but i'm hoping we don't even make the playoffs. This team ain't ready for primetime. It's gonna be 83, 93, and 00 all over again. There is a fabulous team 8 miles north that will make all your dreams come true! Enjoy yourself. Write soon!

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Sep 9, 2005 -> 08:32 AM) Sounds awesome, not a steal. It is a steal. What would you call it? A "borrow"?

QUOTE(Tadahito15 @ Sep 8, 2005 -> 06:11 PM) They arent big names like Edmonds, Jones, Hunter etc. so probably not. Two of those guys are in the NL, so they don't count. And the other has been out half the season.

Well this sucks!!! My better half informs me last night at dinner: "Oh...tomorrow is Mikey's (our Son) parent/teacher night at his new school" "Um...", I said "I have that Sox Patio Party tomorrow" "Oh..." then the LOOK. So have fun guys. I won't be able to make it, but hey, that's what being a parent is all about. A friend of mine will take my place. But... Ah it sucks. Have fun. ::drowning my sorrows::

I forgot to mention... I am going, but I don't know where I'm sitting. My buddy got the ticket and patio passes at his house. I'll be sitting with you guys, but he's sitting alone in our seats in the UD. I'm a man of the people.

4 more to 90!!

Hawk was mistaken. There was over 35,000 there tonight. It was just "Come Dressed up as a Blue Seat Night"!

QUOTE(fathom @ Sep 6, 2005 -> 08:52 PM) I can guarantee you that is false. As one of the prime pessimists on this board, you'd never hear a word from me about Ozzie after the season. I'm bookmarking this page!

I get the feeling if we win the World Series people will still be complaining on the game thread how Ozzie managed. It's actually quite amusing.

Perfect on the "Bond. James Bond" quiz... ::patting my back::

I never realized it's been so long since he's been in a flick?!? I guess the repeated showings of "My Cousin Vinny" on TBS helped cover that up. For those who care... http://www.filmjerk.com/new/article1404.html BTW, try to rent "The Public Eye". It's one of his best performances and damn fine movie!

RIP Bob http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050906/ap_en_tv/obit_denver

Can we still get Eric Chavez and Griffey for the playoffs??

Here's an intersting tidbit... Lisa speaks Japanese due to her time living there as a model. No wonder Scotty and Tadahito work so well together!!

Congrats Scott and Lisa!

The USA Today article really put them on the map. John is incredibly well-respected braodcaster...it could be he is going to moving up. More national broadcasts = More $$$ More Prestige, too.

From the :headshake files: http://www.detnews.com/2005/lions/0509/01/D05-300258.htm

When the White Sox make it to the ALCS and then the World Series we should ban all the negative posters for the duration of the those games. No bandwagon reentry allowed! Just Kidding!

I installed a similar device in the local public pool and I was arrested! How times have changed...

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Sep 1, 2005 -> 07:59 AM) What is the "rev" in front of Pat Roberston's name worth? I think he gets first dibs on the pudding at the 700 Club cafeteria.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Aug 29, 2005 -> 02:34 PM) Just heard on the radio that the Griffey deal went through, we are paying 70 percent of his salary. Edit: Wait, no it didnt. Um...ok...and....
