  1. No, he's cheating off my prep sheet. I posted that comment first,
  2. And after 2, the Twins are up 4-0 over the Pale Hose. The ever faithful, CBU.
  3. Sale has done well against everyone else except us.
  4. Well, yes, but the better description is sports while in bumper cars.
  5. Um, I believe he said 'He' not 'She'
  6. The next time you and the cousins come through Chicago you'll have to experience WhirleyBall.
  7. Saturday, the 19th, during the series v Angels
  8. I want the sweep because, well, it's Chicago.
  9. Some people like the wave. It doesn't make them stupid. And it doesn't make you superior. This is what I was getting at with my moderator warning. Leave the judgements and personal assessments out of the discussion and stick to topic. I think we all can address a topic saying why we like or don't like something without the name calling.
  10. I for sure want to see Pinto, Vargas and Kepler. Other than Berrios I'm really not sure on pitchers. Santana and/or Polanco? Hmm ... not sure, either.
  11. To everyone: There is plenty of judgement going on on both sides here. If you like the wave and want to make arguments for that, do so. Or if you don't think it's so bad, make your points. But let's stop with the personal comments of 'Get over yourself' or referring to the original poster as a jackhole.
  12. Um, I wouldn't agree with that. Go Hawks!
  13. Meh, I'm still confused, but I think I get it.
  14. This is the confusion, though, when talking about this. It's NOT Game 163. Yes, while it could be the 163rd game of the year, it is not the 163rd game of regular season play. In an 'official' sense Game 163 is played when determining post season eligibility in case of a tie and is considered to be part of the regular season. The one-game WC game is part of the post season. They aren't the same. Edit: okay, see Brock's post above.
  15. Geez, you call yourself a fan and you can't take a quick flight to get there??? Tsk.
  16. There's more to that line that that! I think I like our chances better playing one game against the Yankees than the Blue Jays. But for one game it's probably really a toss up ...
  17. Thanks for answering that question and clearning this up. I wasn't sure. Between this and the 'game 163 playoff' or 'game 163 tiebreaker' or WC game ... lots of confusion!
  18. Absolutely. As long as he has found his 'groove' and continues to pitch like he did last night.
  19. Yeah, I was asking more ... 'Incredulously' ... as that would seem overkill.
  20. How many do teams typically call up? They can go to the full 40, but does anyone ever do that?
  21. Why not eligible for game 163? If a game 163 is needed to determine which team will be the 2nd WC, it's still considered part of the regular season. I thought Santana was only ineligible for post-season play. Am I wrong? No, the WC game is part of the post-season. It is NOT synonymous with a game 163 playoff game. At least that is my understanding. This was discussed in another thread which became very confusing because of the title of the thread. As to when/how they replace Santana for the post-season, I'm not sure about that. I think it would likely work similar to a DL replacement? Would whoever takes Santana's place for the post-season have to be on the 40-man by Sept. 1st? I wouldn't think so but I don't know all the details of these rules.
  22. Oh, God ... all hopes of the off-season are now dashed.
