I'll probably need even more than that .

Yeah I understand what your saying. I'm a big Bears fan and absolutely hate Kordell Stewart. However, if they happen to do anything this year (no chance) I'm not going to root against the guy.

I never questioned your loyalty to the Sox. I just feel Colon is over criticized when he is having a better season then Buehrle who recieves almost no heat at all on this board. Colon is stepping it up big time when it counts and lets just celebrate that.

This is why he was the most coveted pitcher in the off season. His last three performances have been unbelievable. He is stepping it up when it matters most and that is what I like to see. Anyone who questions his effort just has to look at the game tonight and see what a competitor he truly is. Colon this Buds for you.

I'd have to agree. Not the most dominant but the best performance of the year by any Sox pitcher.

Thats actually disappointing I was hoping for a crowd of around 40K today.

Good job by that fan, saved us a run.

The club has an option with a base of 3.5 mil. He also has incentives in his contract and I believe if he wins the Cy Young his salary increases to 4 mil for next year.

Would love to do the same but I have a 4 hour lab on Thursday's that I can't miss. And I don't have a car.

I agree with you 100%.

Numbers when it come to fielding our misleading. Having a high fielding percentage doesn't make you a great defensive player. You have to look at a players range and in the case of an outfielder the strength of their arm. Magglio has good, not great range, and an average arm for a right fielder.

Maggs is a great hitter and a good fielder but gold glove caliber, come on. Is arm is average for a right fielder, he doesn't have great range, and he doesn't make the highlight real catches needed to win a gold glove. Konerko may have a good fielding percentage but in his case that doesn't tell the whole story. I can remember at least 4 plays, just in two Jon Garland starts that Konerko botched that weren't ruled errors. He really is overrated defensively.

Forbes, I'm a freshman.

Hey Koch, where do you live? I too am in Champaign for school.

The Cardinal pen just blew another game. They were up 2-1 going into the 9th and it is now a 2-2 game.

I agree with you, but I find it funny that everyone on this board constantly criticizes Colon while remarking on how great Buehrle is when their numbers are very similiar.

Did you happen to see Buehrle's start against Detroit.

Minnesota only up 8-7 now. Texas scores 5 in the 4th.

I would agree with you if it was a bang bang play at the plate but Rowand was out by a good 7 or 8 feet and I have seen Nomar throw out runners on a fairly consistent basis.

The umpire did not give up two home runs to Ortiz. The umpire did not send Rowand home on Maggs double with less than two outs. 99.9% of times Umps don't lose games, players (and managers) do. Remember for every call, one side or the other doesn't like it.

5-4 Red Sox Ortiz homers again. Hmm... maybe we shouldn't give him anything to hit.

Willie goes down looking, great at bat.

Terrible decision to send Rowand, with less than 2 outs you can not take that chance there. Fire Bruce Kim :fyou

Thomas reaches on a terrible fielding play by Nomar.

Way to go you jinx
