  1. QUOTE(Hawkfan @ Mar 29, 2006 -> 09:16 PM) we'll see if they enforce it.. if you need me i'll be the guy smoking in the stands. who keeps getting hit in the back of the head with peanut shells. Fixed.
  2. I've decided that I'm not going to another game until they get back to the World Series. So I suppose the first week in October will be my first trip back.
  3. QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 30, 2006 -> 12:35 AM) It's closer to Stanley/Aurora than anyplace else. I'm impressed that you spelled it right. Most can't. Googled it when it didn't look right.
  4. QUOTE(AddisonStSox @ Mar 28, 2006 -> 08:10 PM) ...Iowa must suck. Quit dissin' the Oelwein Institute of Technology like that.
  5. QUOTE(Flash Tizzle @ Mar 29, 2006 -> 06:19 PM) You want a true experience? Find yourself the dirtiest prostitute and have all your friends take turns. That's what I really should have done. This reads like it was lifted straight from the Duke Lacrosse handbook.
  6. QUOTE(AbeFroman @ Mar 29, 2006 -> 04:45 PM) why would he agree to a six year deal? that seems absurdly long for a player who could very well have broken the bank at the end of this season for even a four year deal... He has no leverage. Sizemore was locked into making near league minimum for the next two years, then whatever he would be awarded at arbitration for the three following that. He delayed Free Agency by a year (maybe two) in exchange for the security associated with a long-term deal when he could be playing for peanuts relative to his actual worth.
  7. QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Mar 29, 2006 -> 03:29 PM) Even though it's not a joking matter, there's gotta be some Shelden Williams joke hidden here somewhere. It's not a joke, just a double standard. Remember kids, if you want to keep playing for Duke, get your gang-raping done in HS.
  8. QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Mar 29, 2006 -> 02:34 AM) 36 Adam Langley ATTACK 5-9 165 So. Glenview, Il. (Glenbrook South) Woo-Hoo! Chitown keepin' it real. 'Melo would approve. Stop snitchin' Yo! The Smoking Gun has the police report, and indeed, "Adam" is listed as one of the alleged rapists. So who here knows this douchebag?

  10. Good thing IU hired a coach whose last game wasn't an embarrassing loss to a mid-major.
  11. QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 28, 2006 -> 04:20 PM) Baj makes Callaro look silly, although I think Callaro pretty much did that to himself in that sequence... That's his 153:25 K/BB ratio in A-ball working for him. Put the ball in play son. Stop trying to hit everything out of the park. Take a walk. Sub 300 OBPs aren't going to get you anywhere.
  12. Can somebody recap bobby's outing. All I saw was the last pitch.
  13. QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Mar 28, 2006 -> 01:52 PM) Were Timo Perez and Willie Harris still on the 40-man roster before the Rule 5 Draft? I don't remember who was on the roster, but the Sox had room for Castro. They went into the draft at 37 or 38.
  14. QUOTE(knightni @ Mar 28, 2006 -> 02:32 AM) Ginger. Polish or Brat? Brat Tastes great or Less filling?
  15. QUOTE(SuperSteve @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 11:06 PM) .317 the year before. He can do it. I think the Tigers staff will be better than people give them credit for. Bonderman is a hurler, Kenny Rogers will have fun with the cameramen in the big D, Robertson and Maroth arn't terrible, and Verlander is kinda like BMac to us as we may get a prize, may not. I like Roman Colon too. Their pen, well their pen sucks. They have power too. Mags, IRod, Monroe, Thames, Shelton, Polanco, Guillen... not terrible, not great, but still. That's not much of an argument for Infante. The only thing he's got going for him is he's young. But that ship sailed when they signed Polanco long-term. Inge is their best 3B offensively and defensively Polanco is their best 2B offensively and defensively Guillen is their best SS offensively and defensively. All of which spells lots of time on the pine for Infante.
  16. QUOTE(SuperSteve @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 10:55 PM) I am still not sold on Inge everyday. I think he is better suited to the UTL roll. 23 errors at 3B, so it's not concerned at defense, Infante had 13 less errors. Inge is a career .238, Infante is a career .246. I think allowing Inge to move around would help him, as he played every position two years ago. It's not Polanco vs Infante, it's Polanco 3B/Infante 2B vs Polanco 2B/Inge 3B too. With the Tigers staff, they need to score as much as possible. Inge has developed into a decent hitter since he moved from C. He's also one of the rangiest 3B in the game, which makes up for his errors. I don't know how you can make up for a .250 OBP like Infante posted last year. I think he should consult Timo for that one.
  17. QUOTE(SuperSteve @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 10:36 PM) I live in Michigan, and I am not too firmilar with any Tiger fans who like him. They have too many guys similar positions too. Granderson eventually needs to be allowed to play. Shelton took Pena's job last year. Polanco could (should) go to 3B and let Infante go back to 2B. Monroe in left still? Nook won the CF job last year. I am a big Marcus Thames fan. So more or less, too many pegs, not enough spaces. Pena has always seemed a headcase to me too. Polanco >>>>>>> Infante -- Both offensively and defensively. Plus why would you want to remove Inge from the line-up only to be replaced by Infante?
  18. QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 06:19 PM) Only one person, Neyer, picked the Twins to win the Central. Last year, only one person, Neyer, picked the White Sox to win the central. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?page=05expertpicks Rogers also pegged Thome to be NL MVP and Zach Grienke to be AL CY Young last year. That was right on.
  19. QUOTE(Reddy @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:04 PM) um... getz is taller than cliff He doesn't look it.
  20. QUOTE(kman @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:01 PM) On a sidenote, Wrestlemania is on Sunday the 2nd like our opening night. I hope no1 here has WWE tix kinda sux u have to choose 1 of the 2 cool events. Didn't wrestlemania stop being cool about 20 years ago?
  21. QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 03:56 PM) Getz is a player to watch, he can do everything except hit for power. But he can run, walk, strike out rarely, field his position, has great arm strength. He is a big-time keeper. And if he makes the big leagues, Clifford won't feel so short.
  22. You're right Krush, it's mainly bulls*** marketing. But if you're one of those people who uses debit cards a ton, this is a subtle way to save yourself some scratch. Banks are learning that Toasters and Calendars don't cut it anymore. -- I don't know why I capitalized those two words, but I did, so there.
