So I guess when Jake Peavy said that the team "had to win this series", as in win 2 out of 3 games, he was really putting the onus on John Danks and Mark Buehrle, because he certainly had no plans of winning this game. After looking like the stud we're paying 15 million dollars this season in two starts. Peavy struggled through a win in Kansas City gifted to him by a rare offensive rally, and now has gone back to being indistinguishable from Gavin Floyd in every way except demeanor (drunk and angry as opposed to morose and… Read more »

Jake Peavy had yet another, frankly, disappointing outing today, and the Sox went down with their pitching.First inning, Jake got a couple of hits against him, but avoided severe damage. Choo and Hafner started it off with one out, but Teahen bailed him out with a nice diving play on… Read more »

Before Monday night's victory over the Cleveland Indians, Jake Peavy took time to speak frankly about the White Sox season. Well...about as frankly as someone who hasn't acknowledged that the team is fatally flawed due to their abysmal defense can speak about the team. Soxcruised to their third win in their last four games. We have… Read more »

No matter how positive your attitude may be, it is inevitable that frustration will come about. Sometimes this sparks from the situation of having a disability. But in most instances I have found that frustration comes from circumstances which would… Read more »

It was about freaking time.D1: the Pitching Danks didn't have his best stuff last night, to say the least. He labored through 5 innings, threw 112 pitches, got hurt by Lou Marson. But, he kept the top of the Tribe's… Read more »

Hey Justin!It was great to see you Monday! Frankly, the last time that we saw each other, things were a little weird. You weren't yourself. It didn't feel right, and I think a lot of people went home feeling upset and wronged, genuinely wronged. We didn't want to ever go through shame and embarrassment like that again.But tonight everything was great. We weren't feeling so great last night, mainly because some guys from Florida attacked us with tire irons and beat us to within an inch of our lives on a Sunday afternoon. A Sunday afternoon, Jason! Some people have… Read more »

Notice I didn't even say that there was a good chance that the Sox win another game this month. The last time the White Sox ventured out to Cleveland for three games this season, they were swept by the team that's currently last in the AL Central. But hey, if the Sox play their cards right, they'll be last in the AL Central by the time this series is through.… Read more »
Throughout the Hawks' run to the Stanley Cup Finals, they've been called a "team of destiny." The franchise has taken so many huge steps forward that it just seems that way. Does this Hawks team deserve that billing? I think one could make the argument. The story of the turnaround from a business standpoint has been beaten to death, but how about the product on the ice? The Hawks have gone from 9th place in 2007-08 to the Stanley Cup Finals two years later. The team is now being forced to scratch several very capable players on a nightly basis… Read more »
