Stick em With a Fork!!

[zamboni]

Neither one (Sox or Twins) will make the post season this year, I am at peace with that. I am also at peace with the fact the Tigers won't make it past the first round. At this point in the season I am more interested in the fact that the Rangers could make the Wild Card and send the Red Sox packing. That and the fact the Marlins and Rockies are having great seasons are the stories in baseball this year.

Ron Washington- AL manager of the year

Jim Tracy- NL manager of the year

100% correct

Solbes,

I was only reacting to the droves of Twinkie lovers who are ready to throw in the towel with a ton of games left and only being 4 or 5 games out, it just blows my mind how fair weather they can be. I was just injecting a bit of humor about the forks, I did not create this thread, but I have to admit that I am enjoying the heck out of it! LOL

[UdeLakeTom]

There is another fellow down there in Ch-town, that used to play baseball up here, that seems to get under the Twins fans just like Windy.

Keep up the ribbing, most of us know it is all internet trash talking. Just remember where you spend your money in the summer.

[blue_healer_guy]

Not a sox fan, except AJ, "the heart and soul of this team back when". I'm just saying if we spend the right $ on the right players with our way of doing things, every team in this division is irrevelant. Sorry Windy, but if we would do that here, your looking at 2nd place at best every year. And I like Windy!

OK dude, not to defend W'bag, but I gotta step on this one: so you've never had a vac trip to Chi-town? Probably not 30 in 35 yrs like I visit Cass, but it would take you 30 to see all Chi-town has to offer.....but if you wanna see a WSox game, bring your bodyguard (which W'bag is sure to remind me now that the last shooting was outside WField). You make a trip here and I'll be your guide and I bet Windy would gladly join us.

I completely get it. A little internet banter makes it more fun, just had to zing you on the wonderful view past the outfield from home plate. I have little love for your team and your catcher in particular, but I have a completely different view of your city. Love coming to Chicago every once in awhile.

Back to baseball. Unfortunatley the Twins do not show much promise, and neither does the rest of our division. Very strange year. Go... Rangers ?!?

I wanted to see Wrigley last time I was in town, but they were out of town. Went to Comiskey again and was reminded why I paid extra to park at the ballpark.

Geno...been to Navy Peir, went to bootcamp at Great Lakes.

My nephew and his family live in Greyslake..oh wait, they are Twins fans.

My son works in Gurnee. Oops also a Twins fan. Our family does visit Chi-town quite often. I appreciate the offer and the fact that you and Windy enjoy your vacations up here.

Oh by the way people..only 5 1/2 out now. I hear the train a coming!!!

[SledNeck]

STILL ALIVE

I went to Great Lakes for boot, too. Went to "A" school there as well. Hung out at the Gurnee Mills Mall all the time, and went down into the city all the time as well. Chicago is a great town, no doubt about it. But the White Sox stink.

[SledNeck]

show us a picture rockin the sweet bellbottoms

[Jim Uran]

Yeah they stink!!! Don'y worry Windbag! I know it just makes things more intersting to duke it out and let everyone throw there wrench in along the way! But it's fun picking on a pitiful White Sox fan

[Scott M]

Just when you're out they suck you back in. 4 games out...I still don't think they have the horses. Kind of pathetic that all they can muster this year is 4 in a row. Change that tomorrow night?

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Hey, what the heck are all these forks I am getting back in the mail? LOL

Give a team a little 4 game win streak and everybody is back on the band wagon. I have a feeling there will be many who are on, then off, then on, then off........LOL

[Born2Fish]

I will stick with the Twins, win or lose. Whether or not they win the division, go to the playoffs or blow it completely. I have a few forks I can send down to Chicago when the Suxs blow it in the end also. Or maybe over to Detroit when the kitties finally spill their litter box.

[SledNeck]

You are right Sled, we should gain a pretty good idea of how a star starting quarterback is going to perform in 16 real season games and the playoffs from a few meaningless quarters in the first preseason game of the year. You are right! Do you think that they might give us Kyle Orton back if we ship Cuttler back?

Sled, your wisdom baffles me sometimes!

[Jim Uran]

HAHA!!! Another relic pulled from the depths. But this one is OHHH soooo sweet!!!!

[fishersofmen]

Did this one win the "most proposterous statement of the year" award??

[zepman]

Windy must have moved.

[SledNeck]

Windy must have moved.

after how this year in sports has went for him, do you blame him?

[genegodawa]

Naw, he's prolly just in hiding trying to figure out how to defend his "genius" GM Kenny Williams' picks of Kotsay, Vizquel, and that other OTH guy.
