2012 White Sox Season Summary: Go Bears

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Sep 27, 2012 -> 03:27 PM) Why are you attacking me? Given all the talk about attendance, I think people should remember this is the 8th best team in AL. Because you're a troll who only posts when the team is doing like you wish, losing.

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Sep 27, 2012 -> 02:32 PM) theyre dugout sure gets fired up after every big play...not the sox. weird how they play the sox like its the world series,flawless and against detroit, like the scrubs that they are.wow I think the Sox would need a big play to get pumped up over. Did you see the reaction to Dunn's 3 run homer?

QUOTE (GreatScott82 @ Sep 25, 2012 -> 06:12 PM) I am assuming it will look like this the rest of the way: Santiago (CLE) Peavy (TB) Floyd (TB) Sale (TB) Liriano/Quintana (TB) Santiago ( @ CLE) Peavy (@ CLE) Floyd (@ CLE) Right now it is currently set up to be a Chris Sale vs Justin Verlander match up for game 163. If it's tight, I'd put money on Verlander making 2 more starts this season. Game 163 doesn't mean s*** if we don't get there

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Sep 24, 2012 -> 09:28 AM) Tickets are available for all three games of the Indians series for under $2 on stubhub. Feel that playoff excitement!

QUOTE (Harry Chappas @ Sep 18, 2012 -> 01:52 PM) He is actually right. There is some coverage but it is overshadowed but the inconsistency of the team and the fact the Bears were slated for the Super Bowl after week one. If the Sox keep winning they will get some press but right now I think it is kind of what it is. The Cubs held a parade/party downtown in 2008 before the playoffs even started. It was the saddest followed by the most satisfactory event ever.

QUOTE (WilliamTell @ Sep 17, 2012 -> 04:12 PM) 1 more! You want Reed? Addison Reed? Do you have a hunch he's due? Due to give up a bomb or walk against the Tigers 1 or 2nd best hitter against us.

Bracing for the potential disaster of a Bears loss to the Packers and the Sox hitting flush on the season for good and losing.

QUOTE (pittshoganerkoff @ Sep 11, 2012 -> 09:05 AM) It's amazing how good Rios has been this year, especially compared to last year. This is probably the best Alex Rios we've ever seen. Comeback player OTY rankings: Rios Dunn - (mostly because of how bad he was last year) Peavy

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Sep 10, 2012 -> 10:50 AM) Well this is just ignorant. It's half price night, tickets upstairs are already FACE at 7, 11, and 13 bucks. Why should they be $50 on stubhub? Because the game should be sold out and impossible to buy a "face" ticket for.

QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Aug 30, 2012 -> 03:03 PM) I wouldn't say he's been pathetic, but I'm sick of watching him dog it down the line to first base. The "Captain" should show a little more hustle. Yeah...think of all the infield hits he could be legging out

Meanwhile Verlander gave up 19 in 180 pitches, at least we got him out of their early.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Aug 27, 2012 -> 08:23 PM) We have no idea what he was doing, he f***ed up, case closed. The side replay looked like he looked down to make sure he was on the plate and by the time he looked up there was no play

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Aug 27, 2012 -> 11:13 AM) Dont trust the marlins to send that kind of money back with Mark After their hilarious trade deadline, I wouldn't put it past them if we tossed in a half decent prospect if we have one.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 27, 2012 -> 11:03 AM) That is still a lot of money for a team that may have help coming in starting pitching. We still have Danks coming back next year, Chris Sale, Gavin Floyd (team option), Jose Quintana, and Hector Santiago coming back next year. That is without Jake Peavy or Liriano being resigned. I would not be shocked if at least one of them were back next year. Sale Danks NewQ xxxx xxxx For as much as he talks like a stand up guy, I don't see Peavy coming back. He'll get a big (relative to his performance the last few years anyway) offer and sign elsewhere like Buehrle. I don't trust Hector or Floyd as anything but a 5th, don't trust Liriano signing, don't trust Q not being a fluke. I'll admit I'm biased, but give me some MB back for 6m, 8m, 9m the next 3 years.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 27, 2012 -> 10:40 AM) 2013 $11,000,000 2014 $18,000,000 2015 $19,000,000 Prospect + half is salary. Getr done My money is MB ending up on the Sox at some point before his Marlins contract is up

What was this for?

so are they ever going to fix the fact that we can hear the stat guy in the broadcast? Going on about 3 weeks now I think

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Aug 24, 2012 -> 12:46 PM) Ha, interesting, mine too. Maybe I will see you there and have no idea who you are. 4 time seasoned patio veteran here. Depending on your level of alcoholism: 2 beers at a time, finish one, go up get 2 more, repeat. They let you take one out when it closes

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Aug 23, 2012 -> 02:16 PM) He must be an Angels fan. It hit the dirt. Ball hit the dirt, ump called it incorrectly.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Aug 22, 2012 -> 12:55 AM) Liriano in 5 starts with the Sox. Team Record 4-1, personal record 2-0 26.6 IP 24 H 11 ER 9 BB 23 K's 3.71 ERA Winning a higher percentage of starts (80%) than Justin Verlander for the Tigers. KW sucks

Create thread about how much Gordon sucks as well as compare him to the suckage of Alexei? Both hit monster homers in the same game haha

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 17, 2012 -> 07:45 AM) I would not have. I would have though if the average was that low, and the K's were that high, that his power numbers would not have recovered either. That wasn't the question though, the power numbers are there.

QUOTE (StrangeSox @ Aug 13, 2012 -> 01:15 PM) I bought a doughnut and they gave me a receipt for the doughnut. I don't need a receipt for the doughnut. I'll just give you the money, and you give me the doughnut, end of transaction. We don't need to bring ink and paper into this. I just can't imagine a scenario where I would have to prove that I bought a doughnut. Some skeptical friend: "Don't even act like I didn't get that doughnut! I got the documentation right here...oh, wait it's at home...in the file...under "D", for "doughnut." look up the Patrice joke on receipts, takes the opposite approach

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 30, 2012 -> 10:59 AM) Its very similar to the Buehrle situation for us. Our org basically made zero offer and he left for an actual large payday. Thome did the same and they booed him relentlessly. I would NEVER boo Mark Buehrle. Might have been a slight diff in that Thome *might* have been worth that money. I love MB, but he isn't worth that contract.
