NBA Trade thread
So who's the winners in all of these... I have to admit, I'm pretty stupid when it comes to the NBA. I liked Philly's move last night, but what does this next one do? WTF? is up with Isiah? How smart is the San Anton GM? whoever that is? Ainge=Kenny Williams? How many more times does Van Horne get traded on his career?

What are you reading?
QUOTE(winodj @ Feb 24, 2005 -> 01:57 PM) I just read Running with Scissors. Augusten Burroughs is a very talented writer. I read about half of that too.. I checked them both out fromt he Library, and started with RwS(it's first chronologically), but I was getting a little depressed reading about his Childhood. He told it well, it was humourous, but not what I was lookin to read at that time. I put it down and picked up Which I recommend also. Dry was much more up my alley.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Feb 24, 2005 -> 02:02 PM) I'm still trying to figure out why his hands are in that position. That doesn't make any sense. Just a fielding drill. He's just flipping the ball to collection area I'm assuming. Either that or he is at 2B, and he's flipping to SS.

Another year, another birthday for Da Cheat!
QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Feb 24, 2005 -> 11:47 AM) Which one is the real one? I'm confused. Middle of July.... It was busy around here just b4 midnight last night, so I changed my BDay in a gesture. for some reason it didn't change right away... I posted as late as 2AM, and my new BDay wasn't at the bottom. I just left it because I thought it wasn't going to register.

Fact or Fiction
Fact or Fiction The Cubs will win more games than the White Sox Fact - The Sox aren't as good as it seems, and the Cubs aren't as bad as it seems. Fact or Fiction Jon Garland will win more games than Kerry Wood Fiction -- Why put any money on ole 12 win Judy Fact or Fiction Carlos Zambrano will win more games than Mark Buehrle Fact -- Z = Stud Fact or Fiction Scott Podsednik will steal more bases than the whole Cubs team Fiction -- Pods would need an OBP in the 400's to do that. I'm hoping he doesn't approach the Bowa Barrier of .300 Fact or Fiction The Cubs attendance will average 15,000 per game higher than the Sox Fiction -- Sox attendance will be up slightly this season, Cubs wil be down slightly Fact or Fiction Jermaine Dye will out homer Jeromy Burnitz Fact -- No Coors for Burnitz spells trouble. The Cell should add to Dye's total. Fact or Fiction Latroy Hawkins will have a lower ERA than Damaso Marte Fact -- He's done it 2 of the last three years. Fact or Fiction The White Sox will finish higher in the standings than the Cubs will Fact -- Cards > Twins

QUOTE(Goldmember @ Feb 23, 2005 -> 05:54 PM) Crede looks like he's fixed his swing. click here -- Then watch the three HR clips... I saw a couple of his swings from BP on Sunday night, and now this picture... He looks more balanced. More like the "Crede's three-run" link above, less like the other two HR clips.

Catch-All Anything Thread
I just found a '91 Tops Gene Harris(203) card at work... It looks like it had been kept in somebody's wallet. I don't know why anyone would keep such a thing in their wallet. I'm going to put it in the lost and found. Clearly this is something that someone valued very deeply.

"El Duque" has a poor outing
QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Feb 23, 2005 -> 04:41 PM) If you had a pitcher who had the command and smarts of El Duque, and the stuff of Jose Contreras, you'd have a pretty damn good pitcher. Roger Clemens, maybe? I think that as Pedro loses more of his pure stuff you'll see just how good of a pitcher he really is. I think the future pedro is the best comparison that I can come up with for current Duque. Different arm angles, good movement, changing speeds.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Feb 23, 2005 -> 04:13 PM) Go to his MLB page and watch his highlights... He's striking guys out with mid-80's stuff... He just knows how to pitch. I just watched 13 of his k's from last season... Here's the speeds from the gun on each. 85 76 88 78 84 81 88 83 75 88 90 88

My choice is what I choose to do, and if I'm causin' no harm it shouldn't bother you. Your choice is who you choose to be, and if you're causing no harm, you're alright with me.
