Let's Get There

I've said for the past few days that it's a real bright spot that our starting pitching appears to be stabilizing. We've looked all season for a run like we had last year where each time out that starter was able to raise the bar on the guy before him. Now would sure be the time to see it again.

If the Sox can get to the post-season, believe me, they've got every bit as good a chance to win it all as anybody they might face.  They are a team no one wants to see in a short series, with a powerful lineup and would be sending out a solid starting pitcher each night no matter what.

Throw into it the experience and confidence that goes with being the World Champs and they would be right there as the favorites.

But you have to get there. You have to get there and that's the task at hand tonight as we start a series at a strong Oakland A's team.

Hawk and DJ, We believe the Sox can get to the post-season, they are a GREAT TEAM! Our wishes came true last year, I only wish you and DJ were announcing the games.
Your enthusiasm is awesome! How can I request an announcement to be mentioned during the home game on Sunday, September24th? Thank you.

...and you can put it on the boooooooooooooooooard -- YESSSSS!

PLEASE MAKE SURE Hawk SEE THIS , WORD FOR WORD, as an ex NYer now in Chicago for 7 years, I grew up listening to the great Mel Allen with Phil Rizzuto (a true homer), I must say you are the biggest homer in this town...your stretch routine with you can put it on the board, yes are just fixed examples of your homerism...when other team scores runs, hits a home run, I don't hear your voice at all and have to raise the sound on my tv to see if you are alive... I also have the radio on to hear Ed Farmer( a devoted rooter) AND Chris Singleton ( new guy is good, no homer and honest) and lower the tv sound a little...
you ought to be ashamed for getting a pay check in 2006 to tell old time stories for at least half the game. Sorry... you gone!!!
