ozzie needs to know when NOT to put his foot further into his mouth |
its funny that none of the fans (white sox or cubs) that ive talked to think he was out of line. mariotti is a complete jackass. earlier in the season he tried attacking aj and some other players in his column. for some reason he seems to have it in for the white sox this year. no one can even remember the last time they saw him at a chicago sporting event, some people think it might be as far back as jordan suiting up for the bulls. the guy cares more about his guest spot on espn then actually going to the games and reporting.
one thing i like about ozzie is that he's going to tell it like it is and stand up for himself and his players. he's never going to change and as long as the white sox are winning people here wont really care. i think the white sox have about another two or three years left on this run and when it ends probably ozzie's career as manager will too but im going to enjoy it while it lasts. the same thing happened to dusty back in 2003 and now that the cubs' run (well more like a brisk walk) is over he's going to be gone. |

Here's a formidable statistic:
The Braves loss to the Jays couple days ago, their 9th straight, something very rare to the team. With the loss, the Braves have endured their first nine-game losing streak since the 1988 team lost 10 straight to open the season. The ninth loss of that season came when Glavine was outdueled by Dodgers ace Orel Hershiser, who was facing an Atlanta lineup that included Dion James, Damaso Garcia and Ken Griffey Sr. |

A Henry Owens update (dude from Mets minor league team):
21.2 IP, 6 Hits, 7 walks, 44 Strike Outs. |

even though the Astros salvaged the last game in the series, the White Sox seem to have their number
ChiSox hit a grand slam in each of the 3 games this weekend, including a game-tying salami by Tad Iguchi off Brad Lidge with 2 outs in the bottom of the 9th tonight. |

we've been playing great baseball lately so im not sure if we have their number or if we were just really hot. i will say this though, the NL and AL dont look to be on even ground this year. besides the mets and possibly the cardinals no team in the NL looks like they have what it takes to win the world series. |

Cards sure didn't look like it after giving up 33 runs in 2 games to the White Sox. It's also a shame that in the third game, the Cards pitcher had a 1-hitter but lost. |

| i figured out what's wrong with the braves this year. chip carray. he shows up in the booth and bam, 13 or whatever years of division titles goes down the drain. if history has shown us anything it's that the braves are going to be in a constant rebuilding stage until he leaves. |

| Braves announcers are the most boring on the planet! I want to shoot myself listening to those guys. They wouldn't get excited if Andruw Jones hit a game winning HR in the 7th game of the world series. |
