The Towel is on the Floor
Yes Joe, that’d be the D-Troit Tigers heading to the Post Season.
I can honestly say I’ve been here before; but for some reason, it does not feel the same.
Soon after the White Sox lose game 1 in of their 3-game series against division-leading Detroit, I will say, as I’ve said in years past: “Fuck this shit!”
This year’s team was supposed to be better than last years; we upgraded our rotation, we upgraded at DH (though Frank makes us look like tits [see comments]); we had Bobby Jenks for the whole season. But no; half-baked-Freddy, Huntin’ Mark, El Titanic Contreras, and Five-and-dive Javy couldn’t put together a decent string of victories early on in the season. I mean, Jon Garland was our staff ace! Now with the offense in a funk; with an overrated manager who cannot put together a decent lineup against lefties (essentially forfeiting the game before it starts); with a Playboy model for a left-fielder, this team (yes, it’s a ChiSox rant) is again at it’s underachieving finest.
We’re now 6 out in the central, 4.5 in the wildcard.
Fuggedabaouit. I’m rooting for the Mets in the post season.

[...] Now; if none of you know, I don’t like the Twins, I’m a South Side Sox fan. But as much as I loathe them, I can’t ignore the fact that it is BECAUSE of them that we’re not in the wild card/pennant race (at one point, they had a worse record than the Brewers – and yes, I know it is also the Sox own damn fault they didn’t make it ‘til the end).

[...] For the record, I may have given up before the ChiSox were mathematically eliminated, simply because I realized this team was going nowhere; but embarrassed? Mariotti, you dumb pundit, we won the World Series last year, we a have chest-deep rotation signed through 2007, we may sign a true lead-off man in Pierre, we set records in attendance this year; why would the Sox be an embarrassment?
