f*** you OC

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 07:32 PM) What happened? Botched a DP ball in this inning or no runs would have scored

QUOTE (MexSoxFan#1 @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 07:16 PM) f***ing hate having to depend on other teams to advance to the playoffs when it was in our hands...GO KC!!! It still is in our own hands

Great start

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 05:29 PM) Look how popular Owens, Fields, and Wassermann were on this board last year playing meaningless games and none with the potential of Gomez. He would be very popular. He has a lot of flaws, but he has a lot of ability and is very young. I don't think he's Rickey Henderson II like Hawk does, but he has a chance to be outstanding. Sure, but he also isn't patient at the plate, strikes out a lot for a guy without power, and hasn't shown an ability to drive the ball. He also hasn't shown the ability to consistently put the ball in play and for a guy who apparently will rely entirely on athleticism that is important. He has a lot of potential but he has a lot to improve on before he even becomes a respectable major league hitter.

QUOTE (chisox2334 @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 01:13 AM) Im sorry but why is anyone suprised of what happened past couple of weeks and hell if you want to include months. The last time I ever felt confident with this team was when w sox swept twins back at home for a four game set. How long ago was that. Ever since the white sox played medicore baseball at times during this and hell even worst during this stretch of novemeber. With all the quotes whether be ozzie calling out javier vasquez and the classic vasquez line " I dont care, I get to go home with money". Real classy javier, tells all about that guy right there. Orlando Cabrera, my my my the leadingship you done with your mouth to media has worked 100 percent make yourself look like a giant asshole looking for new contract. You wanna say something to teammate go up to him and be honest about it. I almost got feeling by tonight that we should feel their pain and sorry for putting up a half ass effort last few weeks. I watched the crap and I felt like was 2007 all over again with easy outs and really bad pitching. You can look at every game that was real close blame ozzie for stupid moves to first game of the season with umps blowing it. We played bad and deserved the faith that shaun upon us. s*** does happened in baseball and tigers and indians know danm well this year about it. Dont worry clevlened will be more than ready next year and I for one dont look foward to facing them. Twins have very consistent pitching and they usually all go 6 innings and dont have a mess of a bullpen that ozzie somehow made out to be. I will not give up on them. But, the reality of it is we just stink and there was no way this team was gonna do anything. in 2005 you felt confident when you went to ballpark abd energy was amazing. I never got that feeling at all this year. I felt like we benifited from detrioit and espeically clev injuries. The future does look bright though. Carlos quentin, alexi raimerez, healthy limbrink, danks, jenks, and floyd all give reason for hope next season. I want all the realists out there to go out and tell me did you ever even think we come close contending for divsion in last week. Alot people had us 4th and worst. I dont blame them either do to worst crap baseball I had ever seen. And I do mean after May. The problems I got with the team heading into this offseason is someone better become f***ing leader and shut up all the egos and crap. All this crap of talking outside to media does what for you other than answer stupid questions about some incident. When you play good you wont hear moaning and complaining to media. Another thing is ozzie better start developing baseball players. Yes , baseball players. No how to first to third, score a run from second on a base hit, learn how to bunt, and most of alll run a god danm rundown. I never seen a run down look so danm pitfull all year till you watch the w sox. You just sit and wonder what exactly do they even work on. I will say from last year jermaine dye and jim thome bounced back really nicely. I am glad have them back and proved to me they indeed can still play this game very well. Alot of crap has gone down for us and lets face it no 5th starter hurt us and rotation set was never the same again, having a clutch joe crede does hurt, losing your mvp of year as well and of course losing your best setup and basically making ozzie go with weird situations. I hope everyone knows that free agencey will be hear very shortly and who knows what kenny has up his sleeves this offseason and im sure hes gonna be pushing the envelope. Just enjoy these final days of baseball cause it will be gone for awhile and only then will you know how much you wish you could watch it during those months. I will be at tommrrows game watching and hope see some energy. I can only expect it to be like a funeral. you can tell from coming all way to minny to all the way here is that somber and sadness is going on southside. So cheer and enjoy the baseball. night. Two words...paragraph breaks

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Sep 26, 2008 -> 12:51 AM) He may be good, but the whole talking and licking of the bat is quite weird. Gomez is not good

QUOTE (sin city sox fan @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:42 PM) Those of you who have given up on this team better not be taking up seats at the Cell during the playoffs. I want true fans who supported this team all the way to the finish to be the ones rooting this team to another series title. People are pissed off after an awful 3 days of baseball. I doubt many people have truly given up on the team but a natural reaction in these situations is to distance yourself from the team so it is less painful if they do fail.

Did you really expect that attitude of the board not to suck after tonight? All this team needed to do was win one game against an incredibly mediocre team and blew a ridiculous amount of chances to do that.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:29 PM) The one thing I said about this team all year if they aren't very good, but they play hard. Well, they didn't even play hard the last three days, and it'd be hard to argue they have at all this month. We probably only score one run tonight if not for self induced mistakes by Minnesota, so don't give me that either. Outside of Bobby Jenks, every single player on the team choked and failed the last three days. Major changes are absolutely essential this offseason. This team may have some guys with rings, but they are just a bunch of losers. Carlos Quentin is the man who started the wheels of destroying our season in motion, but boy the rest of the team did a great job of finishing it off. There isn't much this team could do this offseason to upset me outsiding of getting rid of Floyd, Danks, Ramirez, or Quentin (as long as he promises not to destroy anymore of our seasons through not thinking), and that includes firing Kenny or Ozzie. I'm not even that angry, this team is a joke, an embarassment, and should not be allowed into the playoffs without buying tickets. Angry isn't the word, embarassed is. Embarassed to be a White Sox fan, for the first time in my life. I figured there will be plenty of irrational anger threads, so I tried to keep this as rational as possible. If you want to try the same, go ahead. Bobby Jenks failed miserably tonight

Season over

QUOTE (fathom @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:08 PM) It was like we were waiting for them to catch up. If they lose this, the part that will keep me up tonight is how we didn't throw an 0-2 hook to either Gomez or Span. Whoever was calling the pitches should be ashamed of themselves. Gomez chases everything with 2 strikes, no reason to throw him a fastball anywhere near the zone there.

QUOTE (WHarris1 @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 10:06 PM) Gomez is a piece of s*** that was the most unecessary dive in history Jim Edmonds spits on Gomez's unnecessary dive

Wow, I definitely disagree with that call.

Where was that pitch to Gomez or Span? f***ing horrible pitch selection.

Nice inning by Thornton. Young had absolutely no chance against him.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 07:22 PM) Podsednik would have made that play Podsednik would have gotten himself turned around, fallen, and the ball would have bounced off his head for a HR.

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 07:21 PM) All aboard the junior hate train. I actually want him playing, I just don't understand why he has to play CF.

Anderson would have made that play

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Sep 25, 2008 -> 12:15 AM) Griffey has been responsible for what 4 of 5 runs this series? Are people even watching the same team? He has all 4 RBIs, the 5th runs scored on his DP.

QUOTE (Felix @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 11:52 PM) http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/news/artic...sp&c_id=cws Oh well. It was a fun season guys, but if we aren't going to try to stay competitive we shouldn't be trying to lose. If Griffey proves me wrong and plays more like tonight (where he didn't cost us all 3 runs, only 1, good for him!) great. I just don't think he can and the fact that we still haven't made a change is kind of disgusting. (Sorry if this was posted in the post-game thread, but I didn't want to sift through that whole thread) What run did Griffey cost us tonight?

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 10:28 PM) Floyd has done it in big games all year. Now, with the season on the line, he has to do it one more time. EDIT: I'll save the sad/angry speech for if we actually lose tomorrow. Hope I don't need to pull it out. Remove your avatar.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Sep 24, 2008 -> 09:48 PM) The whole organization has bowed down to the Twins in the Metrodome. I thought they would win 2, but they will not win tomorrow if they keep praising them. Its time to knock someone on their ass, and act like you're the team in first place. It really is pathetic. Stopping sucking off the Twins, grow some balls and win tomorrow.
