Sorry, wrong again. Alcohol sales are discouraged but not banned. Any college can sell beer at any game in any section of the stadium, but most choose not to.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Aug 20, 2011 -> 04:47 PM) No beer is allowed to be sold at any collegiate sports event. This rule was implemented a few years ago. This is simply not true.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Aug 15, 2011 -> 12:11 PM) I really doubt it. My guess he is cleared waivers and no one wanted him. The Sox would rather save the roster spot than continue to pay him with their payroll situatino They would still have to pay him. He just didn't want to go back to Charlotte.

Soft tossing lefty. We're f***ed.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Aug 14, 2011 -> 07:50 AM) Just got home from the horseshoe. Paulie is literally one of the best clutch hitters in the al. It's magnified by the fact he's the only hitter in our lineup With that said, who wants my tickets for free tomorrow? Pm me or respond quicy to this thread. You pay me the transfer fee. And go Today's game? I'll take them if they are available.

The inability for everyone on the roster to not be able to hit soft tossing lefties is a direct reflection on Greg Walker and his strategy for hitting that type of pitcher.

Konerko is going to win this in a blowout. Comparing Konerko to any of the other 4 guys makes for a good laugh. Paulie has an OPS (.959) 100 points higher than the next best OPS (Victor Martinez-.854).

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jul 2, 2011 -> 06:45 PM) If Gio doesn't go, who does from Oakland? There is no DH this year. Pitchers don't bat in the all star game any more, DH only.

Its only about 2 years of the Fox deal. http://www.investopedia.com/terms/u/unearn...p#axzz1QdEo90ov "When an individual or company receives money for a service or product that has yet to be fulfilled.

Would you rather see Lillibridge, Ramirez, Pierre or Teahen, Ramirez, Lillibridge? Ozzie, you pinch hit for the wrong guy!

“I don’t give a [expletive] what people say about me, I don’t,” Guillen said. “As long as I’m manager of this team and JP is here, he’s playing. You don’t want him here, well get him out of here and bring whoever they want to bring.” “I’ve said in the past, they want Viciedo here, my door is open, as soon as he’s here I’ll play him every day,” Guillen said. “Now, I make it clear, they gotta make a trade or make a decision to send someone down. I cannot play with a 26 man roster. But as long as JP is here, he’s playing. If people don’t like it….” OK Kenny, that's your queue.

I love that no Illini players were drafted and then this comment from Dan Dakich (http://twitter.com/#!/dandakich/status/84112345353289729) that was retweeted by Seth Davis, among others. "Hey Illini players..how about listening to Coach Weber instead of the hanger on clowns..just a suggestion" Hate Dakich, but absolutely love this comment!

At the game, it appeared Rios was limping after the play.

So in his postgame interview, Guillen mentioned how he thought Floyd was losing it in the 5th. But then he doesn't have a quick hook for him in the 6th? WTF? Jackass.

So 2 outs, 2 on, down 3 in the bottom of the 9th. Would you rather have Juan Pierre or Dayan Viciedo at the plate? Argument over.

QUOTE (kitekrazy @ Jun 20, 2011 -> 11:01 PM) So what happens if Vic isn't that stud immediately at the major league level? Do you blame Walker? I'm a little cautious when it comes to believing a player in AAA is the answer to their problems. You do understand that Brian Anderson's career OPS was .660 and this season Juan Pierre's is currently .615? Somewhere around .750 is average. He doesn't have to be a world beater.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 19, 2011 -> 09:50 AM) Viciedo's MLE numbers update: .285/.324/.458. CALL HIM UP. You do realize that Pierre's current line is .257/.319/.300, right?

1. Pierre sucks and has to go. 2. Give it up with the Lillibridge nonsense. I love the little guy but he is not an everyday player. 3. There is no such thing as a lead off hitter. There was only one Rickey Henderson. This theory of a fast, high OBP guy who can steal bases and bunt is just BS. Unbelievably easy conclusion that needs no thought: Pierre, he gone. Viciedo up to start everyday in RF. Quentin to LF. Lineup is whatever you want. Ramirez Viciedo Quentin Konerko Dunn Rios AJ Beckham Morel Is what I would choose but really, you can draw names out of a hat and these guys will score runs. Just please get rid of Juan Pierre.

Anyone who makes a parlay bet combining two mutually exclusive events is an idiot. i.e. Rangers and White Sox

It's happening again. I have Comcast internet and for the past few years, every time it gets really hot outside, my internet begins disconnecting. My router will not connect. Then nighttime comes or a day when it is cooler, and the internet works fine again. WTF? I have never heard of or experienced anything like this in my life.

Gotta DFA Pierre, this is the key. I get that he works hard, but I would work hard if they put me on the roster too. Quentin in LF, Viciedo in RF. Leave Morel at 3rd base and let him do his thing. I don't care who leads off, cause it doesn't matter.

No doubt we win this game.

That is a grown ass man's at-bat!

Please please don't let them tip their hat to Verlander after the game.
