Around SBN: Trent Richardson Interviews Fellow Brown Brandon Weeden

Is anyone still watching?

This is a fun team!

Star-divide

The main purpose of this thread is to provide a place for us to hang out on this fine Thursday.

We will hardly acknowledge that the Sox just got swept and personally boosted the Twins closer to the post-season.

Buehrle - not so hot.  Defense?  ack!!

2009 - Down the shitter with last night's mac n cheese. 

 

 

So everyone pop a happy mushroom and let's start giggling at all the wonderful memories of 2009, and all the fun times certain to come in 2010.

KW on if he is bothered that the '09 Sox aren't "mentally tough"

(From Beaconnewsonline):
From yesterday’s session with the media:

"Yes. It’s addressed all the time. I know who’s quit and who hasn’t, who’s willing to sacrifice. It’s hard to win. Winning and success, whether it be baseball or any other facet of life, if you are not willing to sacrifice, you’re not willing to put in the work, you’re not going to be successful. You’re just not. If you’re not willing to do that, I can’t have you here and I will send you to a better place for you."

Kenny didn’t name names, but followed up with…

"What I will say is that I am certainly looking at it very hard and see who is willing to make the sacrifice to win."

I just read the Sports Illustrated Perfect Game piece for the first time over lunch.

I have an odd feeling of, “geez, I miss baseball.” It’s as if I’ve already been living the dead of baseball-free winter for two months, and I needed a little baseball fix to warm my soul.

A Glenn Beck hypothetical

The year is 2011

You’re Mark Buehrle. The White Sox are running in place but within striking distance of first. You’ve got a no-no/perfecto going into the 8th. You have a comfortable lead.

Knowing that your previous no hitters were high points in what turned out to be crappy seasons – do you hang a slow fat one over the plate to break up the no-no and avoid certain disaster?

NEXT: It’s 1963 – You’re in Dallas. DO YOU SAVE KENNEDY!?

Anyone else watch FlashForward?

I think this series is going to be good. I like the whole “can you change your fate” theme, and Joseph Fiennes is a fine actor (and has very pretty eyes ).

That ball hit deep! Way back! You can put it on the boooaaaard...YES!

Long drive into deep right center field! This ball is OUTTA HEEERRRREE!

aggghhh

nothing like social work, I take the LSAT saturday and I get a call from the on call worker telling me that a foster parent just called and told me they want immediate removal of one of my teens because he is smoking in the house, threatening people and claiming GD….

this is why I am getting out of this field…

so basically

I have to call people all day tommorrow and ask them to take a crazy fucking kid.. 95 percent sure I will be driving him to a group home

Thank god my team will step up and help tommorrow

Those kids usually end up in my class.

Got a ton of group home kids. On one hand you feel bad for them… on the other hand they are fucking jagoffs.

It’s a long season he hasn’t won anything yet

Greinke is 2-4 since June with an era over 3.0 and hasn’t been anywhere near as dominant as he was in April and May. He’s in the mix right now for it but to say he has won it is rediculous. Halladay, Verlander, Fernandez, Beckett and Buehrle are all in it at this stage of the season.

Sox win, cubs lose…..what a wonderful world!
