Punch and Judy Garland Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 he's a big royals fan. Red Sox employ James and that team sells more books probably 20-1 over the royals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackie hayes Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 QUOTE(longshot7 @ May 12, 2005 -> 09:26 PM) and for the record, I don't believe that he's a Royals fan. hasn't he written three books on the Boston Red Sox? He's a Royals fan. Btw, I don't feel like I fit in here. I'm not quite the fashionista that y'all are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CanOfCorn Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 Whatever...let Rob Neyer and the other guys at ESPN have their opinions (personally I like Kurkjian the best). All that matters is that the Sox keep winning. Yeah, yeah, yeah, the Sox are the most uncovered team in baseball, but nothing stops that like good old fashioned 8-game winning streaks. And making the playoffs. The more the Sox get ignored, the more blackboard material Ozzie and Kenny have. We know who the true Sox fans are. We know what Comiskey is like. We know the players on our team. And we love them the way they are. So again, I say...whatever to Rob Neyer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sox-r-us Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 I wrote back to Mr Neyer and here is his response. What do you think folks? Would you like me to invite him here and we can talk baseball with him? As long as everyone promises to behave themselves ======================= Rob Would you like to have a sensible debate about the White Sox on a White Sox board? I promise it will not be childish and immature. Just pure baseball talk....if you would like to, let me know. I can send you a link to a website where there are some very astute baseball fans with who you could debate. Thanks Just a White Sox fan ========================= Well, sure. But I’m not sure what we’d debate. I don’t like the ballpark, or the uniforms. Those are just matters of pure opinion, and not things about which I’ll change my mind. And about the baseball . . . I mean, this spring I picked the White Sox to win the Central, and at the moment I think they’ve got a fine chance at reaching the postseason. So what’s to debate?

JUGGERNAUT Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 In 1998 the NYY's set a ML record by leading in 48 straight games in Jul-Aug. I hope & pray the White Sox can break that record at the start. If that happens all eyes & all praise will be on the WSox. There will be no flying under the radar then. You break the record of a team the Boss was quoted as saying "the best Yankee team ever" & the world will take notice. But you don't have to wait for that day. Other columnists are taking note of the dominance of this team. Don't bother following the local papers because their allegiance to the Cubs tempers their coverage of the White Sox. But the columns written in the cities of the teams we play definitely see the White Sox flying high. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 The O's, the Rangers, the Cubs, & the Angels stand in the way of the White Sox & that record. If the WSox are able to extend that record to 48 games against those starters even Neyer would have to upgrade them from a 40% chance to make the playoffs to a 40% chance of winning the World Series.

JUGGERNAUT Posted May 12, 2005 Share Posted May 12, 2005 http://www.suntimes.com/output/deluca/cst-spt-deluca12.htm Forecast: The pitching is too good and too deep to think the Sox will stray too far from first place even late into the season. Neyer: Reading is fundamental. You might learn something if you try it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
