greg775 Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Do you think we will bash the Royals? We're due to start winning again (not that it will matter in regards to winning the division). Will we sweep the Royals and place second or do you think the Royals will paste us and the stadium will be full of boos all weekend?? I'm thinking the way this season has gone, we may actually sweep KC (while Minnie is also sweeping whomever they play). Do you agree the fans will get ugly a.) when the sox take the field to start Friday's game and b.) if the Royals kick our ass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CubKilla Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Do you agree the fans will get ugly a.) when the sox take the field to start Friday's game and b.) if the Royals kick our ass? I hope both. Sox fans should literally "shake" USCF with boos Friday night. Send a message to JR, KW, JM, and the stiffs when they take the field. Hit them with more boos when they fall behind and swing for the fences every AB. Boo..... Boo..... BOO! :fyou Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DonkeyKongerko Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 I feel this series with KC is ripe for another William Ligue memory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DBAHO Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 Coming 3rd would be the ultimate insult for the team. Just can't allow it to happen, coming 2nd's bad enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Lopez Ghost (old) Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 I think we're just better than KC, and we'll take 2 of 3. I hope Manuel gets his ass booed like it was the All Star game. Second place does matter to the players - they get a little more money for a second place finish.

CubKilla Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 they get a little more money for a second place finish. There should be no incentive for being first loser. That includes WildCard's. Only incentive's paid out should be for Division Champion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JUGGERNAUT Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 It's always better to finish on a high note. We are 80-72. The scrubs are 82-70. Pride is on the line. Go all out to try & finish out of the scrubs. WIN EM ALL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

witesoxfan Posted September 19, 2003 Share Posted September 19, 2003 We'll get plenty of draft picks as it is. I know RPS brought this up shortly after the trade deadline, and Killa pointed it out again not that long ago....but what they are doing is rebuilding in a less obvious way. What they are doing is going with a win-win situation, in a sense. What they will do is offer arb to guys like Colon, Everett, probably Alomar, (if neither picks up their option), possibly Frank, Jose...etc. We could end up with 5-10 more draft picks just this offseason due to them offering arbitration and then having those players decline it and sign with another team. If they accept arbitration, we get the guys next year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For starters, that's not a bad idea. And secondly, had you seen the second episode of Playmakers(that football show on ESPN), there was a scene like EXACTLY the same between the owner on that show and the star running back. I mean I saw it and I instantly thought of that show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
