negligable force meets the object on casters
« on: June 08, 2007, 10:33:24 am »
Here's the run down on the Whitesox from the Chicago Daily Herald after yesterdays loss to the Yankees,

10th loss in its last 12 games followed a hauntingly familiar script.

Bumbling offense? Check.
Imploding bullpen? Check.
Fumbling fielding? Check.

The last few weeks is the worst I've seen the White Sox play in a long time. The Astros are visiting at the right time and should easily win 2 of 3 if not sweep.

I bet you say this about all of the struggling teams we play.

Have you watched the Astros recently? 4-16 over their last 20.

You mean the "Astros Traveling Horse Shit and Dr Phil's Feel Good Tonic Show"?  Step right up, get your magic elixir, one bottle, one dollar!  Triple A callups feel like Cy Young! Get your first homerun of the season!  But don't take my word for it, here's genuine, notarized, bonefide, testimonials, take this one from Willy Taveras! "Made me strong, like a Luke Scott omelet!"  or So Taguchi! "I bought a case!"

Yep and I also follow the White Sox, losers of 10 of the last 12 with a bullpen that can't throw strikes or keep runs off the board. At least the Astros games have been (heartwrenchingly) close.

If the Astros can beat anyone, it's these bunch of sad sacks.

Also, Dye and Crede (and Podsednik/Erstad) are out for this series.

Don't look at the 16 homer. Look at the 4.

How quickly you forget.  The Astros are the team that helps other teams get HOT.

Egggggzactly.

I fully expect to be swept, fingers are crossed for 1/3.  Anything beyond that is a shitty pipe dream.

Hopefully our groveling has appeased the BBG's.

We've heard this stuff since the series when the Rangers came into town.  It ain't working.  Same thing with the Reds, then the Jakes, then the Rockies... heck, the Astros haven't beat the Pirates yet, still many mediots keep repeating stuff like "They should take this series..."

Yeah, right.

your forget he's actually a sox fan that shows up here on occassion.  dont expect to him to actually know much about the Astros.
Here are just a few of the key ingredients: dynamite, pole vaulting, laughing gas, choppers - can you see how incredible this is going to be?
