    ....they have some of the best last names in Major League Baseball:

    Podsednik
    Konerko
    Buerhle
    Pierzynski
    Iguchi
    Widger
    Pollitte
    Uribe


    Those are some great last names.......

    OK, I've given all the props I will to the White Sox. GO ASTROS!!!!!

    You misspelled Buehrle's name ;). Actually, I make that mistake all the time and he's on my computer sim league team (as is Freddy Garcia).

    Just imagine if Freddy Garcia was still in Houston... sure we wouldn't have had Randy for half a season, but would be nice none-the-less.

    I'll bet anyone here a cold beer that Jenks gives up a Pujols-like dinger for the Stros to win one of the WS games....... :D

    He's a rookie, he has fits of wildness, and he hasn't pitched in three weeks.

    I really like Ken "the Hawk" Harrelson. Best Announcer in all of baseball IMO.

    "you can put it on the boaaaaarrrdddd, YES!!!!

    Do Harrelson and Tom Paciorek still call the White Sox games?

    Tom's older brother John, ex Astro bonus baby, used to be my sports camp instructor at the JCC.

    Paciorek does not do the games anymore. I think it is Darrin Jackson.

    I wish "wimpy" was still there though.

    Another call I like of Harrelson's is that he calls a texas leaguer a "ducksnort."
