White Sox in it for long haul if..........................

I am here to say that my White Sox are in it for the long haul & if Paul Konerko & Jim Thome ever start hitting, they can run & hide in division, this team reminds me so much of 05 World Champs, every player on roster contributes, and Gavin Floyd, & John Danks have stepped up & are their most consitant starters so far, I am not worried at all about their pitching, espcially their bullpen Remember in 05 Cotts & Politte, well they have it again with Linebrink(wow when was the last time he gave up a run) Thorthon, & Dotel, and of course probably the most underrated closer in the game Bobby Jenks( he was rated 15 by ESPN fantasy closers) I am a little worried about the hitting they would have a 6-7 game lead right now if they were hitting they blew another last night only 4 hits 1 run, they have lost at least 10 games this year where starters have given up 3 runs or less, I also think they should call up Jerry Owens and put him in centerfield immediatley, am I the only one on this planet that realizes this, the guy only hit over .300 with 25 SB after the 2nd time he came up last year and just because they traded for Swisher and do not want to look stupid they continue to play him, while Owens is in minors, I do not care what Owens is doing in minors right now, all I know is he should at least be given a shot to jump start thie offense, remember Scott Podsenick in 05, well thats Owens to a tee with a little more pop & a better glove, and it drives me crazy to see him in minors because we traded for Swisher and they will have to put Swisher on the bench and it will make them look bad, so instead of caring about putting the best player on field its about saving face, they just called up another player yesterday and it wasn't Owens why, because if he comes up and plays well, which I promise you he will( remember I am also the only person in White Sox nation to say do not trade Crede he will hit 30 homers and drive in 100, well he is on pace ) then they have to play him and Swish goes to 4th outfielder, and we give up Gio Gonzalez our best pitching prospect major league ready, and Ryan Sweeney who is only Oaklands starting centerfielder & hitting .290-.300 with about 20-22 rbis, and playing phenominal defense, we already blew it with giving Young to Arizona last year what did he hit 30 bombs last year, lets not do the same with Owens and get him playing everyday nuf said

The Chicago Bears Recap through week 12

Chicago Bears Upto Week 12

The Bears have played terrible and dissapointing this season and there are many factors to why they've been playing like this, from terrible players to injuries to terrible play calling we've hit them all. But even with all the factors working against the Bears they're still 5-6 and have a slim chance of playoffs with a conference record of 2-5 they have to win at least 4 of there final 5 games. Of the remaining 5 game all 5 teams have a equal or better record than the Bears. In the weak NFC I can see them having a slim chance and 3 of the 5 team left to play are tied with the Bears for the final wildcard spot in the NFC. Here are my offensive position breakdown reports:

Chicago Bears Recap upto Week 4

Chicago Bears Up To Week 4

Now that there is nothing left too say about the White Sox I might as well talk about the Bears early struggles. The only thing to look forward too is Special Teams even though there is still problems there too.

Offensive Line- This is were it is all starting at. First the O-Line is a nice size issue with Fred Miller, Ruben Brown, Olin Kreutz, Roberto Garza, and John Tait. Aside from Kreutz and Garza the rest of the line has been missing blocks and footwork is looking terrible. The Bears need to seriously draft a OT in the 1^st or 2^nd round next year and another OG or there going to be in for a world of trouble. I've notice that the QB has only had about 3-4 seconds before he is hurried or sack almost every play. Not to add that Benson and Peterson hasn't had any holes to make it to the second or third level of the opponents defense. Grade: D
