QUOTE(Soxfest @ Jun 3, 2007 -> 12:03 PM) SMNE was one of the worst EVER! I fell asleep during it so not sure of what was what, but I liked it being on late like the old days. Gave me the old SNME feel to it. Rumor that Benoit will be drafted AGAIN and go to Raw to possibly go heel and put over....I mean feud with Cena.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 10:41 PM) Congrats Cleveland, you ARE the Eastern Conference's tallest midget! Can the Cavs seriously win one against San Antonio? I will not count Cleveland out. You never know what a win like this over Detroit can do to a team. Gibson is playing great ball. I don't see Bowen stopping Lebron even though he struggled tonight. You just never know. I'm pulling for the Cavs.

Bye Bye Detroit, b****es!!!

Went and saw Pirates 3. Just too much going on and got confused. Anyone else stay until after the credits?

How do the umpires not laugh at the grenade? The manager ejection is becoming the new end zone dancing!

That is why I will NEVER say or think that Rasheed is anything more than a baby and an average player. How do you leave your team hanging like that?

QUOTE(SoxFanForever @ Jun 2, 2007 -> 05:08 PM) I guess I am in the minority in that I would do this deal. I'd be torn on it. Abreu has been on the decline the last few seasons so I would probably just have Sweeney get a shot at everyday RF.

I always watch the Softball College World Series, and seriously, not just because the west coast teams have hot girls, but it is fast paced and fun.

If RVD wins, I riot!

Shocking....NOT!

Just checking to make sure that MacDougal was indeed brought in and Gameday was right.

Showgirls, aboslutely frightening!

I'm ashamed to admit that I liked the drafting of Fizer at the time.

AL-Central Catch All Thread

LOL at Cooper in the dugout

"Carlos is Crazy."

Good game, Javy.

Anyone know Hawk's contract situation? Or is it something where they just re-new every year? I would love to see him gone and bring in a legit play by play guy with DJ.

Why would you want to swing at a pitch down the middle, Jim?

After the initial altercation, Zambrano was shown walking tothe clubhouse and Barrett remained in the dugout. If they went at it again in the locker room, Barrett went down there to either start something again or apologize and settle him down. Who knows. QUOTE(santo=dorf @ Jun 1, 2007 -> 04:00 PM) Zambrano sucks this year and has never been good in AL parks. I'll pass. Yeah, let's continue to truck Vazquez out there every 5th day. I feel comfortable with that.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 1, 2007 -> 03:39 PM) I realize he's having a crummy year, but there is absolutely no person I enjoy watching hit more than Manny Ramirez. The guy is freaking text-book. He drives the s*** out of the inside pitch and will wait on the outside pitch and spray it to right/right center. I always thought Manny was one of the few batters that would set a pitcher up to throw a pitch somewhere he wants it. Like look badly on an inside pitch so he could get another crack at it or something. Hard to disagree. Prince needs to be consistent over a few years for me to consider him one of the funner batters to watch.

This is the TBS footage. The Chicago Comcast has more and a better angle.

Someone on northsidebaseball.com is uploading the video to youtube now. I'll post the link when he has it done.

If a starter like Verlander can throw 98 consistently, good for them, but I think velocity is kind of overrated for a starter. Locate, change speeds, get guys out. It takes 1 pitch to get a ground out or fly out and 3 pitches to get a strike out.
