Murderer's Row

if you don’t define “row” as “a contiguous straight line”. Some are not murderers, just verbal abusers.

I took the "under".

by winningugly on May 7, 2008 6:29 PM CDT reply reply   0 recs

or do you mean that it's just an arguement / disagreement between murderers?

because then the murderers could be arguing over the lineup.

Which then begs the question, are there any murderers on this site, given that arguments regarding the lineup are commonplace?

FWIW, I think larry took out SoB in the kitchen to avenge logic’s death. Market Maker tortured swishit in the basement, but then who was in the library???

Don't blame me, I voted for Kodos.

if i took out swishit, then it was in the way

that hanibal lecter took out the asylum inmate miggs who flung his jizz at clarice, purely psychologically.

wow, what a weird reference. i kinda just creeped myself out. im gonna try and reel it back in. it’s a little early for me to be delving into this kind of subject matter.

i wish someone had told me that sportsnation had replaced rationality with caps lock.

White Sox third base prospect Josh Fields was placed on the disabled list at Triple-A Charlotte because of right patella tendinitis.

The greatest trick the White Sox ever pulled was convincing their fan base that "Ozzieball" ever existed.

that probably helped his K rates and fielding issues

dude, that was totally not swish you saw on rush street last night. swish was at home playing xbox.

from reifert
Earlier today, Nick Swisher (ring leader), Toby Hall, John Danks and Bobby Jenks had their facial hair dyed pink in honor of Mother’s Day. Swisher, Danks and Hall also will make a donation to the Lynn Sage Cancer Research Foundation (Chicago) on behalf of all White Sox players.

Ozzie joked that if it meant the team got hot, he’d paint his beard pink as well. You might see everyone around here sporting pink soon.

A group of children from Bear Necessities Pediatric Cancer Foundation, a national organization whose mission is to eliminate pediatric cancer and to provide hope and support to those who are touched by it, attended as part of the Nick Swisher Foundation’s “Swish’s Wishes” program, and assisted with the players’ hair coloring.

pouring outside my place in the loop and doesn’t look good in any direction from my vantage point.

so the ranger (rain delay guy) may be in stoney’s place

I hope they find another replacement

I mostly meant the callers though.

Good lord, it’s bad.

Ranger Rongey will be fine for a little fill in, I guess. I’ll be outta town and busy all weekend anyway. :P

And....Rongey thinks the callers are messing with him.

It’s a conspiracy to irritate him. He thinks he knows who it is and that person is a “d-bag”.

I think Keith is the one who had an interview

My last few months have been busy though. Position change in October, engagement in February and we’ll be in a new house in June.

Yes

Before the game (7:11) Bossard said that a 8:15 start is probably the most likely. I trust him. 10 more minutes.

His defense will probably be pretty weak here on out, shades of ‘07.
