ViperPilot Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 I'd say that's accurate statement. You guys want to explain what you're talking about? Are you saying the moderators are going to ban me? I won't keep posting? What? The White Socks are going to get better? Seriously, I'm curious about the all star break thing..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, they are saying that if you keep up posting in a poor fashion, moderators will suspend your posting abilities. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperPilot Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Your not getting banded. However, this is 1st and foremost a WHITE SOX message board. Coming here, being OUR guest, talking down to White Sox organization isn't going to work. I'm not talking down to anyone here, guys......geez......I didn't realize CWS fans were so sensitive.....after lurking on these boards for several months, and watching how some of you guys talk back and forth, especially some of the game day threads, I figured some good natured ribbing wouldn't have such a reaction......I am the last guy to come in and bash another team....being a Tigers fan, I can hardly say we've had the right over the last few decades.....I was just throwing a little crap around in good fun.....I really can't believe you guys would be so sensitive.........where I come from, when you show that you can't take a little crap thrown your way, it only invites more........hell, I hope we can continue this back and forth the rest of the year....pushing each other all the way through Sept...because I'd like nothing more than for the CWS AND the Tigers to make the playoffs......I'd love to make some popcorn, grab a beer (or 10) and watch Steinbrenner blow his top after he doesn't make the playoffs..... Again, maybe you all misinterpreted my intentions with the posts....or maybe it was I who misinterpreted the toughness of the hide of White Sox fans....I hope it's the former rather than the later.....

tigerfan Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Tigers grab the early lead 1-0 on a Shelton single. Bottom 2nd. So much for the lead. Ibanez leads off with a shot to right, 1-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not always so easy to interpret someone's intentions when it's their first post on the board. There's nothing at all wrong with some good natured ribbing between fans of rival teams. It would not be the first time a fan of another team has registered here for the sole purpose of ripping on the Sox. As long as your intentions are good, there shouldn't be a problem.

witesoxfan Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 QUOTE(Wolverine31 @ Jul 8, 2006 -> 04:27 PM) About the last post, I think you just concentrate on making the playoffs any way possible whether it may be by winning the Wild Card or the division. But I think that poster pointed out the September 1st date because if I remember correctly we have a pretty tough schedule in August and a much easier September. If we can hold on to the division lead through August, I think we have a great shot at holding on the rest of the year because of how we've beaten up on the bad teams all season. Who the f*** cares? If the Sox get hot, they are the best team in the majors by far. It's a f***ing month. If come late September, the Sox are eliminated from the AL Central race, you then concentrate on getting the Wild Card. Also... (1)What do all the Sox fans who were crying about the fact that you percieved that the Tigers couldn't beat good teams have to say now that you have put in 2 pretty bad efforts against the Red Sox? (2)Maybe your starting pitching will really hurt you against good teams? 1. That your ass won't last past next week 2. I would have to sa...sorry, what, I can't read the rest of that, there's a World Series ring in my line of sight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

loltrain Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 (edited) Betancourt went into a home run trot and was pointing into the dugout....unfortunately for him it was a routine fly ball. Edit: Also, lol at some of the Sox fans, you guys are a great team, relax and enjoy it. All the same, I think you've been hot almost all season and you still don't have the best record in your division, I'm not saying that you won't sometime soon, but it's pretty silly to say you're the best team by far.

Not true. The Sox have many wins but they haven't been hot. In fact, I'd say it's a surprise they've won so many games with as bad as their pitching has been at times, both bullpen and starting. If Coop can get Vazquez and Garland pitching near their capabilities, then the team would be primed for a hot streak. I've already given up on Garcia since he's lost velocity on his fastball and doesn't have the makeup to become a dominant finesse pitcher.

The offense has been friggin stellar, I'm not questioning that. When you're pitching has been as bad as the Sox has been, you're lucky to be 25 games over .500.
