It's time to move Contreras either to the bullpen as a long/middle reliever or place him on waivers. I appreciate all he has done for the team, but he is just absolutely killing us so early in games. He works at a tortoise pace and it puts the defense to sleep not to mention the fans watching the game. I don't know who should take his place (Richard?), but I'd take anybody over Jose right now. |

Post subject: | Re: Jose Contreras |
Maybe it is time to ask to see his urine tests as well??????? Sox nation, feel free to explain top me why he is not as much of a suspected user as anyone else? And I am not jumping on the guy just now, I called it when he lost 30 pounds in 5 months, without being able to run and he claimed it was his "Diet" (Coughbullshit) Joe Borowski lost 25 pounds one year as well, after having a very good year as a Cub and I called the same same BULLSHIT, so this is not about a Sox player v a Cub Player. CONTRERAS=USER Thus a "FRAUD" Per his GM |

Placing him on waivers would not be a good idea--he would be plucked up and could come back to hurt you. What you do is put him in the lmopup spot, let him get hammered until he comes out of it, and have the genius Copper work with him several sessions a day. For some reason, he seems not to be focused at all. |

CONTRERAS=USER Thus a "FRAUD" Per his GM It's definitely a possibility; I wouldn't rule out anybody in this day and age. I'm convinced both Kerry Wood and Mark Prior were juicing a few years ago. |

The only reason I did not believe Prior was on Juice is beause he was such a pussy, that he would never go under the knife, I was convinced he was scared to take anything. So I am not denying it for good reason, just that he was a pussy. On the other hand at some point Wood had to take something, as he was cut open more times than I can remember. But we all know, No Sox player ever juiced. |

Did this brilliant thought come to you in the Captain Morgan Club? |

Maybe if the Cubs win something that actually matters, your head will miraculously leave your ass? |

During Chris Rongey's postgame show tonight from the Miller Lite Bullpen Bar on 670 The SCORE & the Chicago White Sox Radio Network, the Ranger reported that Jose Contreras will NOT start the getaway game at (Not So) Progressive Field Wednesday at 11:05a in Cleveland. It's unclear who will get the spot start for the Sox that day, but I'd have to make a wild guess and say that either the just recalled Lance Broadway or Clay Richard toes the rubber for the slumping Contreras. The Ranger also mentioned something about Triple "A" Charlotte or the bullpen for Jose, but I think there are $20 million reasons why #52 might not want to go down to the minors... |

You can start the playground Cub Fan Sox Fan Bullshit like we are all back in 4th grade....but you had better come to the fight with something more than a water pistol..... You have no clue as to whether Mark Prior was on steroids or not, just like Sammy Sosa....something about those calf muscles on Prior were just so fucking normal...you see those all the time.....I mean Prior, being a Cub stroke and all, would never have the brains to send someone else over the border for junk and bring it back...after all, it is so damned hard to smuggle things into this country.... You want to take everything people like Kenny Williams and Jim Hendry say as gospel.....Have fun with it.... ARAM is hurt, but Girlymen Cubbie Fans want to blather on about some washed up clown pitcher and speculate about steroids and rank on the GM..... HOW COOL IS THAT!!! |

Post subject: | Re: Jose Contreras |
Big Fan....Tough morning...ARam hurt....tune into WGN Radio for some 10 minute updates on his condition.... Maybe a Cub Fan should keep his yap shut until the Cubs actually win something that matters? Sox fans know when the Sox suck...like now....we don't hang on every word of Hawkeroo..we don't drink Kool Aid....we know the farm system has sucked for 15 years or so....we look at some of the #1 draft selections under the direction of Duane Shaffer and wonder why you weren't selected with a #1 instead of Royce Ring or Joe Borchard.... Now you can buy into the latest WGN Cubbie Fight Songs or the idea that some drunken dunce in a Sandberg vomit stained jersey is going to get laid after the game with some Cubbie bimbette he meets at Bernies! You can begin to figure out that maybe the Tribune Company before Zell was STEALING YOUR MONEY....guy named MacPhail comes to mind.... Keep worrying about what hothead Kenny Williams says...meanwhile.....'IT'S GONNA HAPPEN'...!!! What type of organization CELEBRATES 100 years of ineptitude.....??? MARKETS IT TO A DIPSHIT FANBASE!!! Enjoy your weekend!!! |

The point being ASFB I didn't start the Cubs Sox stuff, you did. I just would like to see someone in Sox World admit that yes, maybe some guys that play for the Sox have been or maybe currently are USERS. The love for Contreras when he dropped 30 pounds in 4-5 months without being able to run, didn't even raise a suspicion with most Sox fans. The guy found the best diet and trainer that ever walked the planet? Once again, this is not about Cubs Sox, because I am not defending possible usage of any Cub player ever. When Joe Borowski dropped 25 in the offseason, it was the firth thing I said. OK, Sammy juiced. Done. Yes he did. So we can get this out of the way. (But I did get ASFB, to stop using Caps) Dicky says HI and what time are we meeting for Mimosas at the Captain Morgan club Sunday? |

Post subject: | Re: Jose Contreras |
Bigs, are you saying he USED to be on the junk, or hes on it now? Iam more inclined to belive he used to be on it, considering his fastball now is nowhere near as effective as last year, and the weight loss. Whatever he ripped last year, his achillies is reason enough for some doctor to take a decent look at his health and notice issues other than those with his foot attributed to steroids. Maybe the Ranger can get his lips off of Reinsdorfs flesh exhaust pipe long enough to offer his opinion? Or better yet, give us some generic deklusion that its about mechanics or something....... The Poofer- either that or he lied about his age.....what? |

I won't single out Ranger on this one, but all of WSOX, this issue has been ignored and if even discussed on air I am sure I phone call would be placed for a meeting. We will never know about Jose, but when the guy presents enough evidence to raise suspiscions and his GM at the same time is all puffy chested about "fraud", I think it should be discussed. |

Lets not get into Sox v.s Cubs talk, because we all know the Sox are the only baseball team in Chicago capable of winning a World Series. Bottom line, it's time to put a fork in Contreras - he has nothing left. Only problem, the Sox don't really have anyone ready to take his place. |

What is Contreas making this year? That alone is the reason the washed up loser is still on the team and headed to the bullpen instead of being released and a younger pitcher brought into his stead.The Sox management just wont wash their hands of an investment, no matter what a Sox Clown like Ranger and his Reinsdorf Jizz tattooed lips tries to spin like a broken washing machine on permanent spin.And dont give me teams will be choming at the bit to sign this moron, umless a valet position opens up, hes sitting at home, but then again, would you want that fucker with your car keys? The Poofer- They just cut the guys on the North side...... |

If he did, hitting .340+ and a homer is not a real good way to throw a series. |

They were acquitted because prior to the trial, key evidence went missing from the Cook County Courthouse, including the signed confessions of Cicotte and Jackson, who subsequently recanted their confessions. The players were acquitted. (Some years later, the missing confessions reappeared in the possession of Comiskey's lawyer.) So just because they were aquitted, doesn't mean it didn't happen. |
