Carl Everett running his mouth again

I'm no Sox fan, but I actually have to defend Kenny William's here ( :shock: )

 

Everett blasts the Sox for saying they have no leadership (now that he and Frank Thomas are gone) and that guys like Konerko won't cut it. He also predicted a 3rd place finish for Chicago (no word on how he thinks his awesome Mariners team will do :roll: )

 

So, is this what a good leader does, Carl? Runs to the media and talks trash about his former team with zero provocation? Is it any surprise that he names Thomas (commonly known as a clubhouse distraction) as being the other true leader when he was there?

 

Hey Carl, why don't you save your breath for your next "Dinosaurs didn't exist" rant!

[cl smooth]

the chicago white sox don't exist because carl everett doesn't play for them anymore.

[ManEatingTarp]

I don't believe in Carl Everetts...

[BigbadB]

Leader and/or leadership can never be used in the same sentence with Carl Everett.

[BigbadB]

Oh, and how much more of a "leader" is Carl Everett than Jim Thome?

[BigbadB]

Jim Thome can outproduce by himself the production that Big Skirt and Carl Everett provided the White Sox last year. Paul Konerko did.

 

Frank Thomas/Carl Everett '05 XBH's= 57

Paul Konerko's '05 XBH's=64

 

Frank and Carl's RBI output=113

Konerko's RBI output=100

 

Frank and Carl's Runs scored=77

Konerko's Runs scored=98

 

Case closed.

It will be interesting to see the clubhouse reaction when Kenny inevitably trades for him again.

Who calls Carl Everett "The Truth"? Never heard of it.

 

"The Stupid" or "The Whiner" is more like it.

So, how long before Kenny loses it at another gathering of reporters, uses profanity, and calls Everett an idiot.

Hmm... I give it 2 days.

[ltb]

he better stay out of WHITE SOX business.

How often has Kenny done that?

At least he has the guts to call people out.

 

That is not a knock on Hendry. It's a knock on just about every GM in every sport. Some of these players need to get told off from time to time.

A few lyrics for Jurassic Carl from the Gin Blossoms:

 

"And if you don't expect too much from me

YOu might not be let down

 

Hey jealousy, hey jealousy"

 

Have fun in Seattle Carl.
