Far from it. But I'm drinking and just giving random thoughts. You guys can figure it out.


No I was being serious. Short, succinct sentences using predominantly monosyllabalic words.

He spells those best. Some of the bigger ones, not so much.

What do you mean? You had the uncanny ability to even sneak 'em past spell-check.

Nathan blew the save for the Twins vs the Mariners. 2-2 going to extra innings.

No. I wish I could say that. What the hell? I know words. Just can't spell some of them. I type fast and would use the spell check as a crutch as well. If I proof read my stuff I would correct some of my errors. I don't do that unless I have the spell check.

Sometimes I read my stuff and correct it cuz it bothers me. What's that disorder called? Obsessive compulsion, right? I have that.

Yes!!!!

Twins lose 4-2 in 11 innings. Sox pick up 1/2 game.

1 game lead.

Twins are 2-3 to start their 14-game road trip. 3-game losing streak for them.

Oh yes, you have disorders, for sure. However, I am not sure that is one of them.
You might be in a class by yourself. Which is really good for society as a whole, if you ask me.

Nice game tonite. Good to see runs without many HRs, and Floyd has it working. This team is not cream of the crop, but with that starting pitching, they could make some noise in the playoffs if they pitching-- starting at bullpen-- gets hot.

Yeah. 8 doubles,1 triple and 6 singles tonight. See, we can do it without the HR.

Fuck Swisher. He ruined it by hitting a 2-run homer. Damn homers.

Another great start by Gavin. This guy has been unbelievable this season. I would've liked to see him start the 9th but I'm sure Ozzie is looking at the big picture.

He had already thrown 98 pitches. No need to have him throw into the 100's in an 8-3 win. Ozzie's not Dusty Baker.

Gavin Floyd did a really good job in 8 innings of work tonight, while the offense wasted little time scoring runs starting off with a Nick Swisher two-run homer as the sparse crowd at Camden Yards was getting settled in. The White Sox scored in each of the first 4 innings in tonight's game, while Floyd was dealing on the mound. It was definitely a quality start for #34 before Adam Russell seemed to walk a tightrope in the 9th.

Twins lose 3-2!

Hopefully Sox and M's can break out the brooms tommorow.

The White Sox will find out before their game tonight in Baltimore if it's a 2 1/2 or 1 1/2 game in the A.L. Central. The Twins & Mariners play late this afternoon in Seattle, and needless to say, the guys from Minnesota can't leave Safeco Field soon enough! :wink:

We may need this small cushion that we have with the weekend series in Boston. With all the ups and downs this sesaon, I wouldn't be surprised to Minnesota grab the lead again within the next week.

The Sox will be anywhere from 3-5 games up on the Twins when they end thier respective roadtrips. Starting Friday, the Sox face the following pitchers-

Beckett
Matsuzaka
Wakefield
Lee
Carmona

They'll go 3-2 during that stretch. And win tonite. I'll take a 6-3 roadtrip 8 days a week.

For those who don't know, Twins and M's are playing right now. You can follow them on one of the sports sites if you want.

0-0 in the 2nd innings.

3-2 against that group is a pretty tall task on the road. They should hammer Wakefield, but other than that it is a tough group. It is possible you could come away 1-4.

I agree. Frank, you aren't to bright are you? I bet you probably have the lowest IQ on the board.

Its higher than yours, no doubt.



Beckett is coming off 2 missed starts and will have some silly sleeve on his elbow. His last outing was something like 8 runs in 3 innings against the Blue Jays.

Lee and Carmona are good, but the Indians overall suck so I like the chances of 2 of 3 in Cleveland.

Cleveland is the hottest team in baseball. They've moved into 3rd place (64-67) in the AL central by going 15-3 in their last 18 and are currently on a 9 game winning streak. 3-2 against that group would be delightful but I think 2-3 would be more realistic. They definitely need to sweep the O's tonight.

Pretty stupid thing to say considering you've been here all of 2 days.
Also, your misspellings made your comment all the more hilarious. You stupid bastard.
