against compete earn last whatever white
We have to compete against the world champions. We never did as a White Sox organization in the last 80 years or whatever it is, we never did anything to earn that respect.
alex fine finish time wants whatever
That's the first time I feel like I did something wrong. I've been in a lot of controversial things before, but I think I started this one and I'm going to finish it. What I did to Alex was wrong. He can do whatever he wants. If he wants to play for Japan, fine for him.
alex fine wants whatever
What I did to Alex was wrong. He can do whatever he wants. If he wants to play for Japan, fine for him.
continue happened page past ruin strong talked turn whatever
I talked to him as a friend, talked to him like his father, ... I said: 'You continue to do this, you're going to ruin your life. Whatever happened in the past is over. You are strong enough to turn this page on the past.'
balls great hit home middle name plate six throw top wants whatever
If he wants to get it done, I'll throw six balls right down the middle of the plate and let him hit six home runs, and let him do whatever he wants to do. He'll get it. I think it would be great for baseball, great for the game, because now we put another name on top of those names.
chicago fans good happened patience waited whatever
A good thing happened to us. I think being here for so many years and the fans in Chicago waited so long and had so much patience and are still there for us ... I don't know how many years, 80 or whatever it is ... good thing we did it.

We tried to get something done. I think he (Contreras) feels comfortable here and I don't think things are going to bother him. Jose is a tough man. He knows what he is doing, especially where he comes from.

We just play, ... We played 162 games with the same attitude.
babe dumb trade
We weren't dumb enough to trade Babe Ruth,
five four guys hopefully maybe pitch rest sit sneak talk
We will sit down and talk and right now we're not in a six-man rotation, ... It's not easy, but it will be a real interesting talk. Maybe the guys want to pitch with five days' rest and not four and we can sneak him in and hopefully he can pitch the way he is.
bases game hitters loaded won
We had the bases loaded and we should have won the game right there. The hitters got to be better in the stretch. It's not going to be easy.
baseball everybody fans happy last white
We showed White Sox fans and everybody in baseball that we weren't happy with just what we did last year.
last spoiled
We got spoiled last year, the way they (threw). They will get better.

We're going to use him as quickly as we can.
