This is a fun team!
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.
(Photo I took on the Olympic Peninsula a couple winters ago - this thing was bigger than my head! And no, despite my dad's suggestion, I did not lick it.)

One of them happens every year, the other every 6 or 7 years.

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!?

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!

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.
