**OnlineHost** Welcome to White Sox Clubhouse Chat!

CarrascoSauce: I'll kick it off.

D.J. Carrasco
He has an MLB career ERA of 4.82, and attended Pima Community College.

YerMainGuy: This information provided by the dean of Pima Community College.

AJPierscreenname: Man, read that whole article. It's as if dude was desparate to mention that he attended Pima Community College and couldn't figure out where to put it.

YerMainGuy: "oh jeez, there isn't an appropriate paragraph here, and i don't want to make a new paragraph for it, so i guess i'll just squeeze it in where it talks about his pitching stats"

MyOwnPrisoney: Which makes sense, given that whoever would give enough of a crap to mention a community college almost certainly goes to that community college, and those folks aren't always so sharp.

WordUpThome: A FULL CIRCLED JOKE, BROUGHT TO YOU BY THE WHITED SOCKS

MyOwnPrisoney: My turn.

Joe Crede
In February 2006, Crede's high school, Fatima High School in Westphalia, Missouri, retired his jersey.[citation needed] Joe's older brother Brad won a high school baseball state championship with Fatima High School in '92, and an NCAA Division II National Championship with CMSU in '94.[citation needed] He was drafted by the Orioles after high school but chose to play in college first.[citation needed] He was drafted again after college by the Phillies on the same day Joe was drafted.[citation needed]

CarrascoSauce: Whoever Citation Needer is, he's a real ball-buster.

MyOwnPrisoney: "I demand proof that Joe Crede went to high school in some town in Bumf***, Missouri!"

YerMainGuy: It's almost as though Wikipedia is not written exclusively by professional journalists!

CarrascoSauce: Man, what if Wikipedia hired a ton of journalism school graduates to write its articles?

YerMainGuy: then people who went to journalism school would actually have jobs

TobyHallNotToBe: durrrrp my turn

Toby Hall
On June 24, 2006, Hall dyed his soul patch red to mark "turn back the clock night", where the Devil Rays wore throwback uniforms for the Tampa Tarpons, a Reds minor-league affiliate.

TobyHallNotToBe: dum article!!!

CarrascoSauce: You dyed your soul patch red?

TobyHallNotToBe: yep

CarrascoSauce: And what color is it naturally?

TobyHallNotToBe: red

its a sol patch

TobyHallNotToBe: /repeatedly hammer-fists top of own head

YerMainGuy: I, uh, I guess I'll go.

Jermaine Dye
Dye, Mike Sweeney, and Carlos Beltran composed of the historic 2000 Royals offense.

YerMainGuy: That's a [sic] after "of."

marymaryquiteContreras: Even ignoring that, the 2000 Royals were historic?

YerMainGuy: In local circles, yes. That was the year one of us reached third base.

MyOwnPrisoney: I've always wanted to take a Royal to third base with me. You guys ever have this fantasy when you were a kid? The one where you imagine what it would be like to travel back to the 1700s and take a laptop or CD player with you, and show all the townspeople how awesome it is?

CarrascoSauce: Yeah, I usually think about that sort of stuff while I'm taking a dump. I actually talk aloud to myself, describing how it works and what it does. Then the woman knocks on the bathroom door and asks who I'm talking to.

marymaryquiteContreras: I'm up.

Jose Contreras
During Game 1 of the 2005 World Series, television commentators said that Contreras, who started the game for the White Sox, had his name banned from being mentioned in Cuba by order of President Fidel Castro.[source needed] White Sox games were also banned from Cuban television and could be seen only with illegal television satellites.[source needed]

MyOwnPrisoney: "This contribution courtesy of the Cuban secret police."

YerMainGuy: I guess Cuba's under embargo on proper "citation needed" tags?

marymaryquiteContreras: If you couldn't contribute properly to Wikipedia, you'd build a raft too.

WordUpThome: WHAT IS WIKIPEDIA

marymaryquiteContreras: It's the free encyclopedia!

WordUpThome: OH GOODNESS

BIG OLD JIM IS TOO AFRAIDY CAT TO RIDE ONE OF THOSE THINGS

WordUpThome: I DON'T KNOW WHY BUT JIM IS IMAGINING AN ENORMOUS BICYCLE THAT LOOKS LIKE A SPIDER

marymaryquiteContreras: Here, Jim, I'll see what your Wikipedia says.

Jim Thome
During the 2007-2008 off season, Thome and his father drove his 500th home run ball he hit to the Baseball Hall of Fame.

WordUpThome: AAAHH

A TALKING SPIDER

AAAAAAAHH

marymaryquiteContreras: No, Jim, it's a website.
