QUOTE(LeroySettle @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 10:51 AM) Who cares if someone wants to throw a ball back after someone from the other team hits a homer. They caught the ball they can do what they want with it. It isnt just a "cubs" thing. Nope. Anything deliberately thrown on the field, ball or otherwise, should result in immediate expulsion from the park. It only makes you (the thrower) look stupid. Throwing anything on the field should not be celebrated. In fact, the city of Chicago should levee littering fines on idiots in addition to their one-way ticket out of the park.

QUOTE(SnB @ Apr 23, 2006 -> 01:30 AM) what was the lady trying to say? Something about someone smoking pot... Did you know [name] had THC in her system? Look at me being serious. I'm getting a bunch of new catchphrases this week.

QUOTE(Benchwarmerjim @ Apr 22, 2006 -> 05:31 PM) did anyone catch the clip on ESPN News today. The Brew Crew hit 5 homeruns in the 4th inning, tying a Major League record 4 off one pitcher Was Jim Parque pitching?

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 22, 2006 -> 08:37 PM) Ha....Anderson owns "stuff" pitchers. Does this mean he shouldn't even bother against J. Moyer? Pretty much. Right now, he's getting himself out between the ears. He's actually trying to be too patient. He wouldn't be striking out as much if he was more aggressive. His contact skills aren't as bad as what he's shown, but he's running deep counts and trying to fight pitches off. Once he reaches a healthy balance of swinging early when he likes his pitches, and taking when he's comfortable against a pitcher, we'll see a different hitter at the plate.

Flash is about to wet himself.

You should listen to some emo. That'll make you feel better.

I did this one winter after my brother got a GPS unit for Christmas. We released a Travel Bug that now has 13,000+ miles on it. It's traveled from the Chicago area to FL, CA, New England, UK, Germany, and the Netherlands.

QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 10:51 PM) Good to see Timo back in the bigs, I always liked him for some reason. C'mon Timo! C'mon Timo! I wasn't aware that Memphis had a big league club. I suppose they could beat the Royals though.

QUOTE(Goldmember @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 05:04 PM) the guy who had the sand bagger thing seemed kinda like an ass during the prototype development by not even entertaining ideas for modifications. might be why nobody has expressed interest before... The other reason might be because it's pretty useless. speaking as someone who has filled sandbags, that thing wouldn't work. Think about it like this, if you're shoveling snow what's the most weight you can lift in one shovelfull? Not very much. You don't have very good leverage. It would take a very good athlete to even get 20 pounds of sand in one scoop. And that doesn't make for a very useful sandbag. You need something about twice that size to start being effective.

Warning, graphic. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-2...7&q=fatal+crash This was not a "fatal crash" despite what the google video search URL says. http://www.broadsquad.org/rob/turn2.html

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 08:35 PM) Batista had no chance to go for a double. This is a given.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 08:18 PM) So FSN North just showed the guy who has to be Orton. He likes peanuts. Did Bert Circle Jerk him?

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 08:03 PM) Kansas City A's? Kansas City Athletics (1955 - 1967)

Is that Kyle Orton in the stand (can be seen on closeups of RH batters)

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 07:48 PM) Well, with Santana getting bulls*** called strikes, I have a feeling we're in for a LONG night. That pitch was so far outside, I can't even believe the ump considering calling that. The first pitch to Thome was a bulls*** ball then. qwitcherb****in'

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 21, 2006 -> 07:47 PM) New year, same story vs Santana. Joe Nossek would have put an end to this.

Paulo should change his name to start a new streak.

Rhode Island is my third favorite New England state.

QUOTE(The Ginger Kid @ Apr 20, 2006 -> 06:53 PM) Yeah, Santana's been unhittable so far. Crede's .160/.222/.320 with 8Ks in 25 ABs against Santana. Granted, that's better than he is against Kyle Lohse, but it's a good bet that he's gonna go down swingin at some point tomorrow.

Tribune reports it's a fracture of the distal radial bone and the distal ulna bones, could be 2-3 months.

Bruce Levine is reporting it's two franctures. 6 weeks in a cast plus whatever rehab time after that.
