White Sox Elimination Number is 1

At least the Detroit Lions lost!!

The White Sox Are Stayin Alive

I guess that is all that you could ask for at  this point!

And This Is How It Ends!!!!?

A 1-8 record in the last 9 games!!

Yeah, the experts that predicted that the Tigers will pat themselves on the back, but the Sox handed over the division to the Tigers.

#SoxStruggles: Paul Konerko pre all-star break batted .329 w/ 42 RBIs. Post all-star break? Hitting .259 w/ only 30 RBIs

Yep, This is How I Feel Right Now About the White Sox

And First Place is Gone, Just Like That!

1-7 record: pathetic, awful, embarrassing, bad!

12 walks:  pathetic, awful, embarrassing, bad!

Youk batting .197 in September.

Konerko in his last seven games- .174

It's still not over; but,......

1-6 Record Leads to a (Bad) Tie with Detroit

The White Sox are just not playing well down the stretch. A tie with the Tigers (something I am not optimistic about right now) would result in Game #163 IN DETROIT, where the White Sox have been terrible.

Need to fix things quick!!!

It's ain't over until it's over, but.....

Dunn's Two Home Runs

makes the Magic Number 9!

Thank you, Twins, thank you!!

Maybe this was the Twins way of returning the favor for the the help they got from the 

White Sox late in the 2009 season. 

Sox on a five game losing streak but the Magic Number is reduced to 10.

Magic Number Update

It has been stuck at 12 for way too long, so updating this as soon as possible.

The Mediocre 12 Strikes Again !!

We interrupt the White Sox spiral to remind you how bad Big Ten Football is:

• Ohio State 29 vs UAB 15- UAB is winless!
• Wisconsin 37 vs UTEP 26- Badgers looked awful against a pretty bad UTEP team.
• Iowa 31 vs Central Michigan 32- MAC better than Big Ten?
• Northwestern 38 vs South Dakota 7- Northwestern is undefeated.
• Michigan State 23 vs E. Michigan 7- Sparty looked ineffective versus a winless team.
• Nebraska 73 vs Idaho State 7- Pile on against a 1-2 FCS team.
• Penn State 24 vs Temple 13
• Michigan 6 @ Notre Dame 13- luckily I was at a wedding and I missed this sad game. 
• Minnesota 17 vs Syracuse 10- Gophers undefeated for now.
• Illinois 24 vs Louisiana Tech 52- Oh, Illini this is just sad!!Sad.

Wow- can't wait for conference play to begin!!

Big Ten starts conference play next week ... half the teams guaranteed to win each week. Progress!

C'mon White Sox!!

Win 5 in a row, and now lose 3 in a row!!!

Didn't watch the entire game last night, but it is pretty clear what the problem is.

1. Youkilis is batting .161 in September!!

2. Hard to criticize PK and he's probably hurt but when was the last time that he got a big hit?! 

3. Needed Peavy to be "Bulldog" last night and he was Puppy Dog last night. Has he beaten anyone but the Twins in the second half!!

You are in a pennant race- step it up!! The division is yours to lose- and right now you are in fact playing to lose the division!

Just win a damn game tonight!!

Incredible...

picture, oh wait this is a story about Vince Young going broke!

http://outkickthecoverage.com/vince-young-spent-5k-a-week-at-the-cheesecake-factory-bought-entire-southwest-flights.php

1. How can you spend $6,000 at TGI Fridays? How many people are in your group? 30? Even then that's a lot of drinks! A huge tip.

2. Didn't Vince Young ever get comped at restaurants or nightclubs!?

3. LenDale White brings his own bottle of Patron to TGI Friday's

4. VY bought out a Southwest plane (except for about 10 seats) for HIMSELF!! Not for an entourage of 120 peoples, but for himself! Why? Rent a jet! Probably cheaper.

5. You can listen to some of the stories about Vince's spending habits.

Unbelievable that no one told him to at least SLOW DOWN on the spending.

Sox Suck! Bears Suck!

Oh No! Magic Number Stays at 12. Lead Shrinks Back to 2 Games!

1. White Sox lose another game to the Royals! Fail to put the lead back to 3 games after Detroit lost to the A's.

2. For the most part, starting pitching has not been the problems. Instead the offense continues to leave runners in scoring position. That needs to stop soon. More production from PK, AJ and Dunn is needed.
3. Plus a little help from our friends- Twins & Royals would be real nice.

RT @chuckgarfien: Billy Butler:"If we take care of business against Detroit, (White Sox) have a good chance to be in the playoffs."
