  1. Instead of the hitless wonders we are the hitless losers
  2. I'm past caring any more, is that giving up? So many other things to occupy my time with than a team that is going nowhere
  3. Bye Bye JR and I'd be happy. Next would be WS win Neither one will occur
  4. Good bye Parker, we hardly knew ye
  5. Just who hasn't been on the IL?
  6. I see it coming....we win just enough to create false illusion we still can sneak in playoffs, so we trade what little trading chips w have in the farm for a past his prime vet who will do nothing for us. Its the White Sox way
  7. Great idea and lets activate Garrett Crochet while we're at it
  8. Was it right after the trading deadline in 1997, JR lamented something like "anyone who thinks we can catch Cleveland is crazy" and at that time we were 3 1/2 games out which led to the white flag trade. Deja Vu again in a few days>?
  9. We won game 2 not because of Tony but despite Tony no doubt
  10. Like Bob Dylan said "when you ain't got nothing you got nothing to lose"
  11. Wouldn't make a lick of sense. In other words they will do it
  12. I love what I do for the most part, I'm in a biz that depends on disposable income and in these parts, thats tough. I will retire sometime but will keep working at something. My part time employees are like family, I know for a fact they understate their hours so they can stay w me I'm a lifelong bachelor so have no kids just siblings neices and nephews who I rarely see. My GF has a wonderful family
  13. Good for Bo LOved how the story last paragraph said he played for the Raiders and the Royals. Didnt they omit a particular team?
  14. The way our luck is, we drop both ends and get smoked in an on field brawl
  15. First I'm happier than JR in a garage sale for you, youve worked yr ass off and am hoping you have decades of blissful retirement ahead of you. I'm self employed and I will be working until I drop but thats ok Next like my Mom said, when someone has nothing to do they assume YOU have nothing to do and therefore they will take up yr time like nothing else My one buddy cant understand why I cant take off an afternoon and go fishing Another one calls me excessively almost every day to chat about nothing of importance Another one will stop by my place of business just to shoot the shit I'm shocked he hasnt brought his chess board in Am I the only one who deals w this? I feel bad always telling them I have to get back to work (and biz in slow but that doesnt mean theres nothing to do) and at times they cop attitude. If I'm ever fortunate enough to retire and I;m not one to sit around the house I hope I dont impose this on my working friends!
  16. Mine says: Kmart baseball and you An American tradition Im almost sure it was tony that gave the crowd that "I dont believe this"
  17. Then Carlos can say "I told you so!" Would love to have him back
  18. I'm old enough to know I'd like to forget this season Nothing a few beers cant solve
  19. Cool cushion, they must have at least 2 different designs as mine had the Sox batter logo
  20. I think I still have mine, was it sponsored by Kmart?
  21. Does anyone remember in either 85 or 86 at Comiskey, it was seat cushion day and TLR came out to argue a call, suddenly one seat cushion went flying to the field (in protest of bad call) then within seconds there were hundreds of cushions being thrown on the field. Tony just looked up as if to say WTF?
  22. I'm trying to be optimistic. Just dont want to be the Charlie Brown and go to kick the football and have Lucy pull the ball That being said lets go Sox, kick some booty

    JR

    I think multi-billionaires see life through a different prism than the rest of us working stiffs. JR prob doesn't care what the 99%ers think of him. He's got the dough, we don't and he's in control. He gonna do what he wants the rest of us be damned.
  24. I can't believe my lying eyes. We r winning. Can we blow an 8 run lead? Tony will try his hardest
