QUOTE (sunofgold @ Sep 4, 2012 -> 05:24 PM) Actuall I think is misleading. I think that it is the NJCAA not the NCAA. I remember DePaul was a top NCAA team in the 80s With Ray Meyer. Maybe even were #1 at some point. 1978-79 season. They were ranked number one and made it to the Final Four. They lost to Larry Bird's Indiana State team in the semi's, who, in turn, lost to Magic Johnson's MSU team in the finals. Yikes that's tough competition!

Nostrovia!

The first time he broke out "hell yes!" a few years back I think it captured the feeling perfectly.

Cowley built his "brand" on Twitter. Being the WWE-style twitter/radio heal got him way more notoriety than his columns ever did. Being censored severly neuters that. Nobody really cares about this guy's flat baseball & organizational insight. With Ozzie gone, he brings nothing more to the table than any other beat writer.

I agree we're better than Cleveland & Detroit. That doesn't change the fact that the next three to four weeks of schedule is brutal for us with a mixture of quality opponents and long road stretches. They NEED to take care of business at home vs. Chicago and Milwaukee. This will make those series' against NYY on the road and Texas and Toronto at home much less vital.

My immediate reaction to this was unnerving. I spent $13 a ticket for seats for Tuesdays game with my 7-game plan. I'm not entitled to the discount because I supported a team with a partial season package pre-season? That's $16 difference for 2 seats.

Can anyone find how many runs we had through May the last two seasons?

Ventura Bobblehead Day FTW!

If there is any silver lining in our recent losses, it's that they have shown us how tight the White Sox family really can be. I've never even heard of him before today, but I'm sad for his loss. When you make an impression on this ballclub via hard work, great numbers & character (BMS), or even a great story, you're a White Sox for life.

This is bordering on ridiculous

Let's go Kong!

Disregarding the error, great to see Alexei move the runner over for a change.

About time. Good swing on the heater.

Golf shot on a changeup. That look liked BP.

Damage limited

Ballpark looks EMPTY on TV. And by empty I mean absolutely empty. Bulls + rain

It's terrible. Cowley has capitalized jumping all over it on Twitter. I hate to say it, but I'm prone to agree with him on this one. It says to me, "come out to the park and enjoy the game regardless of the product on the field." Not a winning attitude.

QUOTE (ewokpelts @ Feb 14, 2012 -> 09:32 PM) the a's started thier 1996 season in las vegas. thanks to rennovations to accomdate the raiders Thanks ewok. It's tricky with baseball. There aren't many parks out there to even remotely match major league capacity. Can anyone honestly see the Cubs playing in Shaumburg or Kane County? I can't.

Has any major league club played regular season games at a minor league stadium in recent memory? Anybody know?

The Ozzie move definitely makes it a little more exciting. I shut down my Sox brain mid-September and was ready to keep it down until February.
