September 2008 ArchiveGame 163: White Sox and Twins, one last timeby Ricky O'Donnell on September 30 at 12:13AM
163 Here's the deal: I have class until 6:30. For whatever reason, this game starts at 6:35, not 7:11. I'll start the live blog as soon as I get home, though it may be a few minutes after first pitch, it depends when we get let out. Make sure you're here, and invite friends. A few extra notes after the jump... The Sox are, somehow, still alive; the Bears prove me wrong once againby Ricky O'Donnell on September 29 at 1:51AM
I’m not even sure what to say about the happenings this weekend at The Cell. The Sox came in knowing they controlled their own destiny, that a sweep of the Indians would at least give them a shot at a...
Sox fail epically in Metrodome-- againby Ricky O'Donnell on September 26 at 3:24PM
I thought about rearranging the order of the site, putting the Bears post on top, but whatever. The Bears column is below this post so make sure you check that out as well.When I’m stuck at work during huge games,...
Bearly Relevant: Week Four, the quarterback we’ve never hadby Ricky O'Donnell on September 26 at 12:01AM
--Sox post coming once I get out of work.--Kyle Orton isn’t the reason the Bears have blown two consecutive fourth quarter leads. The second half he played against the Bucs last week may even have been the best of his...
"I Hate Everybody!" - Act Iby Bobby Stompy on September 25 at 12:09AM
Potentially a new regular late-night Wednesday feature in these here parts... It's kind of list-y so I figured most of you would probably dig that...or not...whatever. I worked the night shift tonight, starting around 4 p.m. I spent the first...
Yeah, about Javy losing a lot...by Bobby Stompy on September 24 at 8:35AM
Not to pile on Javy or anything -- actually, yeah, to pile on Javy -- ESPN's Elias had this interesting stat following Vazquez's awesome outing in Minnesota...Javier Vazquez took the loss for the White Sox Tuesday night and is now...
Cover it Live rules, Javy Vazquez does notby Ricky O'Donnell on September 24 at 12:15AM
Really, Game One was over before it even began, right? The scenario:Ozzie challenges Javy... ''He hasn't been [a big-game pitcher], that's the bottom line.''And Javy's response...''You know what? It's not going to [change a lot of opinions] because I'm really...

JOIN THE LIVE BLOG NOWhttp://www.tremendousupsidepotential.com/2008/09/white_soxtwins_game_one_live_b.phpApparently somebody really wants to win that picture. For the first time all year, Arin has company in first place. After tying me for most points this week, legendary commenter Mike moved into a first place...
The Bears give us more incentive to focus on the Soxby Ricky O'Donnell on September 22 at 3:13AM
A few loose* observations from yesterday’s Bears game- I love Kyle Orton. I do. Sophomore year of college, we used to hang out by the Bears’ hotel after home games, desperately hoping to get Orton to autograph a handle of...
Bearly Relevant: Week Three, welcome back Brianby Ricky O'Donnell on September 19 at 4:17AM
This is only game three for the Bears, and already I’ve gone through three completely different takes on them. At first, I was convinced they would be horrible. But then the season opener against the Colts happened, and I remembered...
TUP Pick Em' standings updateby Ricky O'Donnell on September 18 at 4:28PM
I think we can deduce a few things from our first official set of standings in TUP Pick Em'. Bloggers, naturally, know a lot about sports. People who grew up idolizing Arvedous Sabonis? Not so much. Rank Pick Set Name...
Bullpen, Quentin, Magic numbers, ect.by Ricky O'Donnell on September 18 at 4:25AM
I was at work during the game yesterday, jumping between the Sox’ and Twins’ gamecasts on Yahoo!, but I was paying enough attention to know Richard was pitching a good game. I like Richard and I hope he does well...
Chi Sox, Like Spinal Tap, Have Elevenby Bobby Stompy on September 16 at 11:47PM
After a swift victory over the Yanks and an incredible Twins-Tribe game, the Sox's magic number is eleven.If you're more like me and less like The Cheat (or is it Christopher Michaels?) you do a decent amount of scoreboard watching....
Dewayne Wise saves an otherwise awful Sundayby Ricky O'Donnell on September 15 at 1:01AM
Sox Report is here. Embrace it. With school, work, and like 200 blogs (or four. whatever.), these TUP posts may start to be a little shorter during the week. That's probably a good thing for everyone anyway, because, let's be...
Bearly Relevant: Week Two, the return of the Mooseby Ricky O'Donnell on September 12 at 4:10AM
After all the shit I talked about the Bears the last five months, you probably would have expected me to be shocked by last week’s beat down of the Colts. And I was, I guess, but not really. Maybe it’s...
Thank you Joakim Soria, ectby Ricky O'Donnell on September 11 at 4:05PM
Good to see the Royals screwing over a team in a pennant race besides for the Sox for once. A lot of people probably expected the Sox' one game division lead to be gone before the end of this week,...
One crazy weekby Ricky O'Donnell on September 10 at 1:58PM
Consider the following:- Superman God Carlos Quentin, purveyor of all things awesome, breaks his own wrist by slamming his bat against it. The Sox playoff chances take a huge hit without the likely AL MVP…- And the then the Sox...
Sox Report upby Ricky O'Donnell on September 9 at 2:36AM
20 games to go, a 2.5 game lead, and no Carlos Quentin. Shit is about to get interesting for the Sox. Of course, it'll all come down to a three game series two weeks from now in the Metrodome. That...
The Bears: screw everyone, we are awesomeby Ricky O'Donnell on September 8 at 3:50AM
What a difference one game makes, huh?Remember how awful the Bears looked in the preseason? I think everyone- well, everyone but Kevin and Condor- thought this was going to be a really long year. Now, after just one game, I’m...
Bearly Relevant: Week One, Peyton and his Coltsby Ricky O'Donnell on September 5 at 3:49AM
Yes, believe it people, the Bears are back, so get excited. It doesn't matter that they probably won't be very good or particularly fun to watch: professional football is too precious a commodity to disregard just because your favorite team...

What can we realistically expect from Devin Hester this year?by Ricky O'Donnell on September 3 at 2:11AM
A few weeks ago, I said the only way the Bears will be good this year is if three things happen. The defense has to stay healthy for the entirety of the season, the offensive line has to improve significantly,...
