Post subject: | White Sox Fire Sale |
Jurko says the White Sox should have a white flag trade because they have no chance to win it all. So he thinks the first place Sox should trade Buehrle for some young arms and "rebuild the farm system". You have to hand it to Jurko. He may not know much about baseball, but he does know how to light up phone lines, agitate people to call and try to stir up a slow show by throwing out a straw man full of nonsense. So how many days will we have to listen to Sox fans calling in and telling Jurko they disagree with him? I hope not many. I'd hate to think this obvious attempt to stir up the masses is actually worth discussing. I'd also be concerned for Jurko's mental health if I thought for one second he actually believes this. |

Jurko + Elmhurst Steve = MATCH! |

It's even funnier considering that Buehrle has a full no trade clause this season B & B might be right about Chicago fans. |

Sure it's an attempt to stir up the masses. The sox fans got stirred up, as he knew they would, while many Cubs fans found it very enjoyable. Some of what he said rang true. Their minor league system, even Bruuuuce Levine, says often, is low on talented prospects. So low, they have little or no chance to make trades that utilize minor leaguers. Enough of what he said was accurate enough to incite people to call with passion. That makes good radio, which brings good ratings. Great job Jurko |

Jurko's just being an ass crack before the crosstown series. Buerhls and Konks both have no trade clauses. He just wants to get though the next four weeks until football camps start opening.... |

Why the fuck not. I think its a good idea. White sox hitting is pathetic and the pitching is horrible in that great AL central. Yeah they are doing great vs some horrible teams, but what happens when they go out of their division? They get picked on and Ozzie goes on his bitchy ass rant about not being as big as the CUBS. Just like a typical Sox fan, to worry about the Cubs, and not worry about his own damn team. I find it to be a joke and very telling of the white sox and their fan base. |

Who are they gonna trade ass cracks? Thome? Crede? (Last time I checked Josh Fields wasn't exactly tearing it up down on the farm) Uribe? WHAT IN THE FUCK ARE YOU GONNA GET FOR THOME AND URIBE?!?!?!? There value will never be lower too btw. Vasquez is among the AL leaders in strikeouts. Contreras is pushing 50. I think the Cubs should back up the truck and unload players now - they'll never get more for them and could set themselves up for the next decade rather than carry old cadavers like Ramirez, D-Lee and the temperamental Zambrano. Deal 'em now before rigor mortis sets in. Lou's brain is picked too. They should fire him before he fucks up big time like in last year's playoffs. Remember that? 3 and out.... Just like the Bears offense last season. Cubbie Blue. It's not a color - it's an emotional condition in mid-October. |

Yeah, well I guess Lou always saying he doesnt remember how his team scored the runs they did is very telling about the cubs and their fan base. |

look what I started. Another Slick vs. Steve comic strip. Do you think we could get the two of them in a cage match this Friday? They could each dress up in their respective team's underwear. It would be a nice opening bout... |

And Chris in Joliet's wife let him out of his cage long enough to make a cameo. |

Live in the NOW. Yeah you guys are playing the bucs who we beat up all year on so far. We are playing the team that just 2 weeks ago took 3 out of 4 from you guys. Man I cant wait to see the shit on White Sox fans face come Sunday night when you guys get swept. |
