sin city sox fan Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I know all the boobirds on here are going to tell me to shut the f*** up.....but I have to say this. Lets support this team and it still can make the playoffs. If the fan support continues in the manner it has for the last three days, we have no shot. If the Cell is packed this weekend and we win 3 against the Tribe and 1 against the Tigers on Monday, we still are guarantee at least a piece of the division title. However, if all this team hears is tales of doom and gloom and the support is not there like it was for the Twins in the last 3 games.....that attitude will transfer to this team. The biggest difference in the last 3 games was the home field advantage and we have to make sure that advantage is there for us the rest of the way. Its funny how all the fans used to be optimistic when we sucked....but ever since we won one World title, many Sox fans have become the most pessimistic fans in the world. I'm ready to win another world title and I think it can happen this year.....Don't stop believeing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9347 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Dude, of course the attitude sucks. Let's just say it matches the loser's mentality of the players we've followed all year. F*ck this team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have to hope the Royals dont get swept. We get Cliff Lee on Sunday, and they get some AAA bum because they aren't pitching Grienke.

Steve9347 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 If they played baseball the right way it wouldn't be an issue. But once again, Kenny has assembled a team of mashers that can only put crooked numbers up and never that 1 when you need it. Year after year it fails, and with these payrolls, he should have had the Sox in the playoffs more than once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WinningUgly85 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) This team gets RESPECT when it can perform on the field. This was just embarrassing. No point in cheering for the losers or else I would have been a Cubs fan. Edited September 26, 2008 by WinningUgly85 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RockRaines Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 The Twins are playing at home, vs KC. Its just about over. They have a TON of momentum. Our team isnt really that good at the moment. We had a badly timed road trip, and Q's injury sunk us. And I think I just saw Jamie Burke get run over by Torii Hunter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NCsoxfan Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 We DID control our own destiny. Let's face it - Minnesota kicked our A$$es royally this week. There is 0 to be positive about going into this weekend. The twins will win 3 straight and we will lose at least one - BOOK IT. Ive never been so sick to my stomach in my whole life Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zenryan Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I'll play along. Odds are the Twins wont close the season on a 7 game win streak. Now somehow we'll have to find a way to win 2 of 3 against Cleveland. Then beat a Detroit team that wont want to be there come Monday. Then the odds are the we wont lose to a team 4 times in a row when we only needed 1 game. Sounds pretty easy... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lostfan Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Of course I support the Sox. I always support the Sox. That doesn't mean I can't be f***ING PISSED when I watch them push their balls up into their assholes for the most important series of the year. Actually, they've been setting this up for a good 2 weeks or so, the Twins gave them an opportunity to have about a 5 game lead coming into this and gave their best effort towards their own choke, but we gagged along with them, because the offense decided to call it an early offseason. Having said that, the season isn't over, and it's still possible to win the division. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paulie4Pres Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 (edited) I can't support a bunch of no-heart losers like the guys on the Sox.... Just won't do it. Firesale on all but the following players: Thornton Linebrink Ramirez Quentin Buehrle Floyd Danks Everyone else can f*** off for all I care. Our big money players COMPLETELY disappeared in September. How does AJ suddenly go retard with calling pitches to Gomez/Span? Seriously. On top of his pathetic performance at the plate in September, he adds those pitch calls to the pile of s*** that was the last month of the season? Wow... Dye, Thome, Konerko, all too old to make the run at the end of the season that is necessary to win a WS. Ship them, and ship them ASAP.

RockRaines Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 Jermaine Dye and Jim Thome really disapeared when this team needed them most. Dye looks like a below avg player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whitesoxfan99 Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sin city sox fan Posted September 26, 2008 Author Share Posted September 26, 2008 Those of you who have given up on this team better not be taking up seats at the Cell during the playoffs.

F*ck this team. Right now in the emotion of the game, I'd agree. How do you know these f***ing pussies even want our support?? To go into Minnie and not win a game is simply embarrassing. If I was in Chicago and went to the games I'd cheer wildly for them, but my god, they have told us the past 3 days how much they want to win. They don't want it. If they win 5 straight at home and pull it out?? Then all of them should run for office. It just ain't going to happen.

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.
