AD Nadal. If the match goes much longer, they will have to postpone til tomorrow.

Nadal finally got a break and is serving for title. Oh no! Deuce! I don't want this to end.

This Federer/Nadal match has been phenomenal!

QUOTE (dmbjeff @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 12:51 PM) varitek and his 219 avg make it over AJ...what a joke This is the biggest travesty in years, IMO. Obvious favoritism between manager and player. I also have a problem with Floyd or Danks getting snubbed by Ervin Santana.

QUOTE (Felix @ Jul 6, 2008 -> 01:07 PM) Yeah, he's been horrible this year. For the record, he has the 2nd best OPS for an AL 1B this year behind only Jason Giambi. He's very deserving. Yup, and he is still near the top of my list of baseball players I wanna punch for no reason.

The Super Fan in green is back. That dude must be rich to always get those seats.

Seems dubious that the first post in this thread is about the Purple Aces.

AJ should be the starting C. Danks should be there but doesn't have the sexy W's, so Gavin probably should. Crede? Boras' gotta love that.

Will be at work all morning so starting early. A split would be the sh*t.

QUOTE (Jim Spencer @ Jul 5, 2008 -> 09:36 PM) I like Kerry Sayers This is going to sound critical, but she has a weird looking chin.

Paying it forward?

Alexei is fast.

BA just got those two hot older blond ladies in the first row to fall in love with him.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jul 5, 2008 -> 07:01 PM) Ugh, this is why I don't like Anderson hitting second. Ozzie doesn't trust him with the bat, especially against a LHP, which he shouldn't yet, he has Anderson bunt, and all that does is take the bat out of JD's hands. At least we get Thome with em loaded. Quentin could of at least hit a fly ball if he wanted to.

Why did Sweeney get 2nd on that? NM. I have never heard that rule before. Pretty dumb.

Brian's gotta make 3B come in.

Nive throw Toby but that was also strike 3.

QUOTE (YASNY @ Jul 5, 2008 -> 12:44 PM) C. C. must be packing his bags. No way. This is a move to get back in the race!

DeRosa working out with Soto?

I recognize her from that episode of Entourage when they were at Comic Con.

I lost interest when USA basketball started disappointing us and now no US baseball. I wish we would get more coverage of baseball and softball. Swimming and gymnastics do nothing for me and some of these events are tainted with steroid use coming out.

QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Jul 5, 2008 -> 11:47 AM) I got to watch Smith work us over last time from the luxury of the Jim Beam section. I will be in the upper deck tonight, and wont have an all you can eat smorgasbord to entertain me. Hopefully we can hit the ball better than that day. As far as Greg Smith goes.

This time it's personal.....
