500 HRs for my favorite White Sox player of all time :cheers

 

And to assclowns who say he isn't a 1st Ballot Hall of Famer, screw them! Least all his HRs were all from natural strength and skill, unlike others

 

Friday, July 27th, I will be there in my 35 Thomas Sox Jersey standing on my feet as soon as he appears on the on-deck circle

Lest we forget:

Then he gets called up and:

Now he's left and...3rd and 4th?

When Frank was here...admit it...EVERY SINGLE YEAR we thought we had a chance to win it all. In the 70's and 80's...we never thought we had a chance. God bless you Frank Thomas...16 years of hope.

But once Frank retires, he needs to be on the left field wall and have statue.

 

 

Uhh.. he ain't comming back. They retired Baines before he stopped playing, they can sure as hell do the same for Frank.

IMO, Joe Jackson should be the next statue they make. But once Frank retires, he needs to be on the left field wall and have statue.

 

I totally agree with you about Shoeless Joe.

There are, I'm sure, a handful of people that should come before Frank when it comes to a statue (not because they were better but because of time), but he definitely deserves one and I'm sure he'll get one.

 

I don't think the White Sox would give Jackson a statue, btw.

This is a special day for me. Frank Thomas was the player I idolized growing up. From his swing, to his gritty work ethic, I wanted to BE the Big Hurt. Thank you so much for the inspiration Frankie! And congratulations!! YOU DID IT!!!! :cheers

Rob Neyer = Ass wipe

Because all Frank did was hit Home Runs... :fight

a couple of years ago he wrote that frank was a hof even if he didn't get to 500 home runs. i guess since then he forgot about his career line of .303/.423/.562, two mvps (should be 3) 7 other times in the top 10 for mvp and just how dominating he was for that little stretch from 90-00.

 

big hurt = first ballot
