iamshack Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 It's 6-5. Linebrink sucks. It sucks that we blew the lead. But get some sack, men (and Melissa). The game isn't over yet. You guys are all acting like a bunch of crybaby pansies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caulfield12 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Of course the Cubs are winning, too. What else could go wrong...will go wrong. An injury is probably next, lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 QUOTE (caulfield12 @ May 1, 2010 -> 01:51 PM) Exactly. I've been a Sox fan for too long (since 1970's) long enough to see the writing on the wall with this team's abysmal start. We'll hear 16-24 (83 start) and how we went on to win the division by nearly 30 games and ended at 99-63 or whatever, but that's NOT HAPPENING THIS YEAR. So why waste your time if you aren't getting any enjoyment out of this, and you have no expectations? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd easily be our best player. But really, what can Kenny even do? Obviously, he can't fire Ozzie yet. We don't have money/partners to make any useful trades, nor do we have the farm depth to make a trade even if we do. We pretty much as stuck with this team for the rest of the year. Expect tons of home runs and tons of heart breaking losses due to this teams pure ineptitude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chisoxfan09 Posted May 1, 2010 Share Posted May 1, 2010 Here is a constructive, positive idea that doesn´t really deserve its own thread yet. Do we bring up Flowers soon since he is raking at Charlotte? AJ is not hitting at all and maybe now is the time to bring up Ty. Unless we want to preserve his ARB clock.
