I freaking loved those books as a kid.

QUOTE(watchtower41 @ Feb 6, 2007 -> 10:04 AM) Anybody think that Morris could possibly still be a mole here.... I'm thinking that he sent the message that his brother was going to the hospital to CTU himself. McCarthy also mentioned that he needed to use an outside source to get a hold of the picture that he uploaded for Fayed. Also nice that we finally get to meet the new VP. Looks like Lennox and him will always have underlying agendas past Palmer's control. Morris is a good guy and I have a feeling he's going to be around yet another season.

QUOTE(Brian @ Feb 6, 2007 -> 06:43 AM) Can't find the link but I heard that this is not a done deal for sure yet and someone in Senate is trying to block this deal. I will look for the story and edit this post if/when I can find it. Ya, John Kerry is involved. I'm holding out hope that either the senate blocks this or that just the added pressure has MLB back out and do a non exclusive deal (basically how they did in prior years) with the new MLB channel being part of more premium packages (as opposed to basic packages). Still I don't think this is an issue the senate should get involved in.

He will start the season in AA.

There really aren't any position guys to get excited for but there is a good chance both Sweeney and Fields will be in AAA and those are two guys to obviously watch and while I think very little of Owens the Sox still give him a chance because he has speed (he just needs to figure out how to use it). It is the pitching staff that will be worth watching down in Charlotte. Also I want to point out that all of the milb.com rosters are not reflective of what the final roster will be.

I want to point out I have absolutely no problem if Rivera leaves. We can promote Babich who is more of a Lovie guy anyway. And yes I have a problem with Rivera's defensive game plan.

You want a dumb comment, Iowa will beat Wisconsin in Wiscy this weekend. There you have it

I really look forward to reading about your experiences in Iraq. Stay safe out there and god bless you and the rest of our armed forces!!!!!

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Feb 5, 2007 -> 03:50 PM) MLB.TV is upping their streams to 700 kbps this season, so the picture should be fine. What was the current stream?

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Feb 5, 2007 -> 10:48 AM) Wait, isn't Fullerton decent this year? UC Riverside is flat out horrid. Fullerton are the favorites to represent the big west in the NCAA dance and yes Riverside is not very good but at least it was a road loss.

I like the Kfed commercial and that one chevy commercial with the old men dancing to the car wash song (it was wrong on many levels yet hillarious). And basically they were the only worthwhile commercials of the superbowl. Last year was the worse I ever remember and this year was 2nd worse. That said I was focused on the game and in the 2nd half I had my head burried in a pillow during most of the commercials (since they were going to commercial as a result of a turnover by the Bears, a 3 and out by the Bears, or another Colts score.

It will be in the upper 70's low 80's out here today. Yesterday apparently it got into the 90's some places.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Feb 3, 2007 -> 01:16 PM) At least she's hot And the Hawkeyes win...WHOOOO. We win out this week (including a win against Wisconsin) and maybe we find some hope for a late season miracle to get into the dance (damn it I can dream can't I). My Titan basketball squad lost to UCR so my Hawkeyes/Titans (baseball) won while Titans (bball) and the Bears lost.

Well on the bright side, Cal State Fullerton swept the Stanford Cardinals and my Titans are now 3-0.

You guys absolutely annihalted us and while entering the season and throughout the majority of the season I was a major Colt hater, your team is a classy team and If any team were to beat us it might as well be the Colts.

QUOTE(dwalteroo @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 09:12 PM) Okay, someone needs to explain this to me like I'm two year old. Barzado seems unlikely to clear waivers, so if we are to get him, we'd need to trade for him, right? So who do we have that the Ms would want? No, we could claim him off waivers if he gets to us (which I doubt he will). I'm actually surprised the M's didn't try trading him first.

QUOTE(soxfan420 @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 08:46 PM) You can get them from Fry's Electronics too. Wow, haven't seen ya around in a while. Hope all is well and HappyBday

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 08:32 PM) Dude, next time you're looking for tee time, let me know, my wife might be able to hook you up at Big Horn. Freaking Sweet. This is the first time I've been there in about a year, but I'm going to try and make it out around the start of baseball season (most of the time the place is rented out) so I'll definitely hit you up than.

As a Bears fan I'm excited to have Brett. The guy is nothing but class and I love watching him play (even if he plays for the Pack). I hope Favre has a good year, except when he plays the Bears

Beats guys like Paulino Reynoso or Luis Terrejo. However, I doubt we pull Terrejo off the roster until the squad figures out what is going on in the outfield. Still there are plenty of guys I'd take off the 40 in order to get Bazardo.

Rogers backed up some rumblings that I had heard about Long potentially moving into the rotation. It would be interesting if it happens since IIRC Long was primarily thought of as a future closer type guy. Still I like the idea of getting him into a rotation and letting him go 5-6 innings a night (not too concerned with him going deep into games) because it will force him to better develop his secondary pitches and in the long run make him a more dangerous reliever. Still I'm stunned to see Long ahead of Omogrosso on the list. That said Long has a really good arm (assuming he refinds the velocity he lost when he joined the Sox and I think it was flat out because he was gassed from a full collegiate season after recovering from Tommy John). The top 30 list is different than mine but those lists become a crapshoot. Still there are some guys that I can't see being ranked as low as they are.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 06:03 PM) Why I hate ESPN down here. The Magic v. Nets game is on ESPN right now, but instead down here we get the Bulls (for about the 10th time this season) vs. Sonics game. Umm both games are carried by ESPN and are at different times. Magic game going on now, Bulls game in about 30 minutes.

QUOTE(LosMediasBlancas @ Feb 2, 2007 -> 06:08 PM) Indio? As in 5 minutes from me Indio?...or is there another Indio, Ca.? I'm working Sunday evening , but I'll catch the game. Yep, that would be the place. I'll be staying right by the Indian Palms country club (that is where my parents place is). It is right by where there are all those polo grounds. Weird thing, the golf course is not a country club but apparently it was Eisenhowers favorite golf course during his presidency (and the course is ghetto for a course out in palm desert, albeit they are apparently fixing it up to make it nice).

For me the party will be out at my parents place in Indio (its rented out most of the year). Myself and some good buddies are going to head out there tomorrow AM, shoot a round of golf in the day, bbq and play video games till the wee hours at night and than on Sunday bbq and watch the game. Should be some good times. Oh and I'm sure we'll hit up a casino while we are there.

I'm on here, but only when I'm waiting for the client to provide me with the additional stuff I need to go on with my work.
