The White Sox Like To Suck Face
The Chicago Tribune has discovered the source of the White Sox's success this postseason: Manager Ozzie Guillen makes out with his players. No, really. After the ALCS victory over the Angels, Guillen kissed his sons in the dugout, then kissed Jose Contreras, then Freddy Garcia, then (gasp) owner J...

Don't Forget About The White Sox
In the wake of last night's lunacy, it's key to keep in mind the great story that is the Chicago White Sox who, after all, have already downloaded their genital pill ticket to this dance. (We were going for a Spam joke there, but we're not sure it worked.) No matter what happens in the NLCS, the W...

Playoff Roundup: Sad Birds
Thoughts on a weekend of baseball that can only be described as "grueling:" • Now, we're Cardinals fans, we've made that clear, so grain of salt, all that. But the way that game ended yesterday was just flat-out mean. Whatever your thoughts on the umpires — we tend to cut them slack, because they ...

We Know What You Did Last Night, Eddings
Any umpire will tell you that if, when the game is over, you haven't noticed them and you don't know they're name, they've done their job. By this measure, Doug Eddings had a poor day at the office. As the world wakes up this morning to a steady stream of vitriol at the umpire for his strange call...

Playoffs Pants Party: White Sox vs. Angels
We had someone tell us earlier today that the presumed exhaustion the Los Angeles Angels Of Anaheim — a name we will insist on typing out completely throughout this series — are facing after playing three games in three days in three different cities is overstated, that these are baseball players,...

America, Meet Ozzie Guillen
We know FOX is disappointed that neither the Red Sox nor the Yankees are in the championship series for only the second time in eight years, but that's no reason for anyone to fret. As we've mentioned before, we couldn't possibly be more excited that White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen is going to hav...

Playoff Roundup: We Warmed Up For The 19th
• We had to run out to see In Her Shoes in the ninth inning of the Astros-Braves game yesterday. Brad Ausmus was coming up, so we knew we wouldn't miss anything. Anybody catch what happened? • Our favorite part of the game is that if the game went so long that Roger Clemens wouldn't have been able...

Live Blog: White Sox vs. Red Sox, Game 3
Barring rainstorms on the East Coast that push everything a few days back, this should be, unless the ALCS goes seven games and the NLCS goes six, the last afternoon weekday playoff game, which means the last live blog, which means we're sure you're just devastated. But this is almost certainly th...

MLB Playoffs: Second Verse, Same As The First
Yesterday was kind of a weird final day of the baseball season; it made us feel sorta dumb for thinking it was such a big deal that we missed most of the early football. The Red Sox "clinched" the wild-card yesterday in the least dramatic way possible, basking in a total choke by the Indians and s...

White Sox Clinch Playoffs. It's Ozzie Time!
The Chicago White Sox just beat the Tigers 4-2 and are heading to the playoffs for the first time in five years. This means many things, but what's most important is that White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen is about to become a very big, very loud part of every baseball fan's life. So, you know, that'...

We're Exhausted, And The Playoffs Aren't Even Here Yet
Despite what The Smoking Gun has discovered Major League Baseball thinks about the American League East, we appear primed for a final five days of rather intense pre-playoff madness. The Yankees and Red Sox are still tied, the Indians are tied with them too and the White Sox are still toying aroun...
