Badass

Only my created Ross Gload could hit them and he'd hit them all opposite field.

Ya, but I see msyelf throwing a controller when they screw up the call, lol.

Why are the Cards going to regret a contract that at most is probably worth 1.5 - 2 mill a year? Especially since they think he's going to do the job next year. Please, maybe a team with a 30 mill payroll would be upset over a deal like that. Rotoworld says some funny things when they rip on teams, but overall I think they are retarded.

I don't think the Sox were ever talking about Burnett. They may of made a phone call, but I doubt anything more then that.

Remember, the Angel fans came out of the woodwork when they made the playoffs the year before. Then they weren't quite as good the following year with the Angels but the fans had bought all the seats up since they were defending world series champs. Moreno then took over and carried this new momentum and upped payroll to keep Angel fans excited and it worked. They should draw 3 million again, especially if the team plays really good and it looks like the AL West will come between them and Texas.

I am going to close this thread. The last time something like this came out, I made it a point to ensure that this type of issues are discussed in private, not on an open board. If people have questions or complains, they can always email me, boz or any other admins or mod and air their complaints. We always listen to them and typically discuss them with the other admins/mods and throw stuff back and forth. We happen to be discussing a lot of things and for anyone to jump on Boz is just 100% wrong. Boz is a fantastic admin who loves this board and does things in the best interest of this board. This board wouldn't be as well ran if it wasn't for all the great admins and mods who help out and throw new ideas out, move threads when needed, get rid of trolls, etc. If anyone has a problem with my thinking behind this, then please, just shoot me a PM, but this is not something that will be discussed in public. Any thread created will result in a 3 day suspension by the poster.

Well check that...I was quicker then I thought. It will be open for Christmas Its up now, with a new header coming and some new backend pages on the way Also, if I do say so myself, I think I did quite the job on the new layout...well by my standards.

Freaking amazing Ian

Good News. I got it all figured out. The colors are done all I need now is to update all the stories and put up a new header. As far as graphis go, same size as the one up there, just not quite as tall. Graci

If he's healthy, phenomenal pickup cause he's an awesome pitcher when healthy. Hell basically he's fantastic when on the mound. We can only hope. Still I think he may be embelishing the physical just a bit.

Nah, as long as I'm home I do the exact same. only saw the first half tonight. Badass that they got 5 in a row though.

Good first half...now lets finish strong Chicago

Hey 2k....you owe me 10 bucks, lol.

Hey Chris, if I emailed you a word file with the portion of the code could you take a look at it. The only thing that confuses me, cause I understand the idea of just doing the table part and having it set up just below the graphic, but Its tougher cause I get thrown off by the php.

lmao

So I'm working on the new FutureSox. And I am going to need a new header for the site. However, I'm going to need to know if its possible to include at the bottom of the header spots for links where you can put url's and stuff. I know i've seen them embedded in graphics before but don't have a clue how to. Goldmember, Ian or Cheat I'm looking in your guys directions Thanks so much Just to give you an idea I blew up a graphic on the site I'm working on. I don't need it that tall by any means, but I was doing that to test. I'll probably center it (its just a pain in the butt figuring out which scripts to take out cause i"m looking through php codes trying to decipher what part does what while I try and customize the look). http://www.futuresox.com/phpnuke Thus far its looking pretty good, at least by my standards, just got to get rid of that ugly yellow. Any suggestions on what color I should place in there would be greatly appreciated too

Technically the Cards have as much payroll flexibility as the Sox do, maybe even less. And no I don't think they outbid the Sox. The cards are just like the Sox, interested in both and may get one...not both. And the Sox will definately guarantee either one of them the starting job.

I think they want to be starters and I don't know if they would both be starting. I highly doubt both are playing together. Plus if the same offer came from the Sox and Cards I think Cora picks the Sox to be with his brother. They get along well.

I'd say between 1-2 million. Cora roughly 750-1.25 mill.

Garland will make it and prove you naysayers wrong. He'll never be Schilling or Johnson...god no, but he'll be good.

I lean towards Eckstein cause he's such a heady ballplayer. Plus based on some quotes from Ozzie he seems to really like Eck. Put him at 2nd and its all good. Don't know what this means for Willie though, whom I happen to be a big fan of.

Well the two year 4 mill is worth 4 mill a year. Thats what they are saying. Its what the score was saying. But I thought it was 4 mill a year and that was including the incentives or at least thats what the original posts made it seem. He's better then Grilli, but then again he could get hurt and we'd be stuck with Grilli anyway. And no one is going to tell me Matt Clement or Odalis Perez are as prone to injury as El Duque. Those two have consistently thrown 180 innings over the past few years.

Or non-tendered.

10 bucks says he doesn't get as good of a deal as Hernandez got.
