Sweeney is gonna be a joy to watch this season, especially statistic wise. His power surge in spring training was really impressive, and with that "sandbox" of a field the Knights play in, his HR total will definitely be up and I'm sure his average will be very respectable as well.
I'm looking for Brooks to watch of course. But I really like Rodriguez, Sabo and the other "Logan" as well looking at thier stats. But Ricky Brooks is who I'm lookin for to stand out.
Will actually watch an hour or so of this game before I go to work, so I will see the ring ceremony. I'm still 50/50 on calling off work though. I already have been thinking of excuses. I'll see how I feel tomorrow morning.

It's wierd that I remember like all of those.
When I was a guest until I finally registered, I remembered alot of the banners, the talks, etc.. as well. Didn't think I would be hooked on this site like this one bit.
Ah the good ol' J.Reedfan8.

Why is it whenever I jump on a bandwagon, it breaks?
In the wise words of Bill Clinton on a Family Guy episode.. "Uh.. Probably cuz ur so fat!! Ahuhuhuhuhuhuhuh!!!"
Very nice read Heads. I too am a big fan of spects, have been since I went to Alabama a couple years ago to visit my family, and became a J.Reed fan catching a game out there. I've played with some good players in my high school days, (maybe should have continued but didn't think I was good enough) I'm looking for a couple of friends of mine to get drafted eigher this year or in the next two years depending if they finish collage. I'll let some posters who are big on spects know my friends names later they want to. I'm gonna talk to them on AIM if they are ever on, to KIT. Hopefully I can get their stats and see how they do. (Hopefully they went to good schools.)
P.S. My spect to watch this year is the name you guys see on the bottom of my "empty" sig. Mr. "future stud" IMHO.
Too bad. If he's still around for 6-8 months I think I can take him cause I'm getting my own place when I turn 20 this year. (Or I might wait till next year I haven't decided yet.) Right now I can't cause I live in an apartment with the owners downstairs and the hood I live in is rough, especially for a good dog like that.
EDIT: Just read your last post on 7 days.
I really, and I mean really, hate to say this, but IMHO, I believe Hermy is done. And it's a shame cause his arm, legs, etc.. feels great, but you can't be effective if you have serious back issues. I really hope I'm wrong.
Usually every year my first game(s) is during the summer and its against a crappy team and 90% of the time, get a win. (KC, SEA, TB) Hopefully this year, since I don't go to school but work, can go alittle earlier and see the sox play a good team and hopefully, get a win.

Man, do I hope Berman ain't calling this game. I just picked up the DVD set today and watched some of Game 3 against Boston. Forgot how obnoxious and terrible he was/is.
Keeping my fingers crossed that its Miller and Morgan. They aren't my favorites, but they beat the hell out of listening to Berman.
Bro, don't get me started on Berman. Some of the posters here know exactly how I feel about him. Another poster here who doesn't like him just makes my day happy.
I was looking at the calendar for this day for weeks and I thank the lord I have every Sunday off of work. Me and my employees (who are sox fans) will see this ceremony (with a game which adds a bonus.)

He's a quiet dude but he just keeps throwing strikes.
I don't think too many rookies, especially in his case comming from A ball and not being a known spect, would say much anyways.
