just finished a game on All Star with Peavy i went 9 innings 9 K's and 6 hits 1 walk allowed.....and faced Santana who went 8.2 innings 9 K's 4 hits including a 2 out 9th inning HR to Carl Crawford now thats clutch Now Peavy and Santana are 1-1 against each other this season both 1-0 ball games.... i hope i get to see Santana again with Peavy for a third and final match.

just to let everyone know so far if im correct we have 2 HR's as a team... and Carlos Lee hit 2 HR's by himself today

i can see someone saying the NBA isnt at its best right now because it really isnt.... but college basketball right now is even worse since their missing out on all their awesome prospects. really high schoolers going to the NBA hurts both the NBA and college.

It's simple -- the catcher has a longer ways to throw the ball to get to second, thus, increasing the chance for a more innacurate throw, and giving the runner more time to steal. but its also harder to pick off someone at 2nd so you would think can get better lead off's... regardless guys like Crawford can do it in R/L but in the game its near impossible is the point.

This reminds me of a thread some troll on MLB.com kept posting about how he'd rather have C.C. then Buherle. I wonder how he feels about that now. lol i read that thread too Jeckle... and while that one was troll like this one in a way does effect us because we play the Tribe opening day.

this is a different team dont bring up the past

i kind of refuse the believe in that little luck factor... maybe it can happen once... or possibly twice but not three times in a row :headshake

QUOTE(soxman35 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 11:06 PM) i think egos go up and they start to suck more then they did in college most of them i think anyway well maybe they dont look as good as they do in college because they are playing against far superior opponents.... if anything college basketball is watered down because of all the highschool kids skipping it or leaving early.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 11:13 PM) Wow -- don't take this as me being an asshole to you or anything, but how can you even have fun playing like that? You're 20-4, you're worst pitcher doesn't even have a four ERA, and you're worst hitter is still hitting .298... yeah i have friends like that too they play on pro because they just cant stand losing... nothing really more to be said about it

QUOTE(soxman35 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 02:59 AM) man f*** the bulls go Illinois the only reason the bulls are evan doing ok in the NBA is becuase the NBA sucks and does not have anyone great in the league so f*** the Bulls and f*** the NBA and wow the bulls really do suck they just lost to the worst team in the league the BUCKS WOW thats what u call sad GO ILLINOIS and GO SOX if the NBA sucks and only the better players in college go to the NBA doesnt that tell you something? i swear some people need to think a little bit b4 they post

well i hear that the best teams lose the most in spring training so maybe we should be .... dont the nationals/expos have one of the better spring training records these past 3 some years.

woah....you guys are taking it too personel... these clowns obviously are just trying to make you angry and regardless of what they say our team as of now is better than theirs so dont let it bother you

yeah i mean i credit skiles and all for this turn around but their is definitely some things about him that makes you wonder if he can take us to the next level pass mediocrity.

i understand Skiles wanting to be strict but i think if Curry played more we could of won that game which kind of pisses me off.... Its ok to make a point to a player or a team but not when that point directly affects the outcome of a game like it did against milwaukee.

well who would of thought some white guy would have a career day against us and we would be held scoreless the final 3 minutes... the loss is kind of depressing but hey im a bandwagon fan really when it comes to the Illini so i dont need to worry about it and not really bandwagon just this was the first year of me watching college bball and when i first started i didnt even know they were that good until after the wake forest game so call me lucky i guess to pick the right year to start

i bet if this done on a regular ESPN board or a general board, crawford would be winning the poll or at least close to it. :banghead

yeah both his appearances this year Honel has looked pretty good which i hope is a sign of good things to come because i know for one that the rotation of him, B-Mac, and Tracey could be the best in AA.

idonno i really think this is the year the twins fall.... they lost possibly their best bat last year in Koskie and their 2 biggest bats in the lineup our young guys in Mauer and their 1B but oh well i guess we can see what happens when the season starts.

ok Curry is almost young enough that if he went to college he would be just fresh out of the draft so id think Atlanta would deal their pick for Curry and maybe a minor player like othella or franky or griffin.... or maybe even Duhon if we get a little something in return Also id resign Chandler no matter what he is what makes our team roll and than with the FA money from not signing Curry you go and get Krame Brown who i think out of washington will blossom somewhere else and him and Chandler always up each others game so maybe they can do that on the same team. In the draft you take the best player available whether it be a guard, forward or center. i kind of like that Jameson Curry dude in Oklahoma... he would be good if he decided to go into this draft. Also im pretty sure the wizards dont resign Kwame Brown because right now they are really winning w/out him and he doesnt seem to care much for the players there.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Mar 6, 2005 -> 06:30 PM) You hardly see people take 3rd in real life... ummm good base runners will tell you its easier to steal third than 2nd.... at least according to the hawk anyways ive seen Crawford do it some times in real life but in the game its near impossible got it once for like 10.

i can steal 2nd pretty well even if i dont swing... its third base thats the biggest b**** to steal...

why exactly is a celtics fan trying to talk trash :banghead

i honestly think it was the ump who over reacted in this case... and you all are just letting your hatred for Sosa get in the way of that..... but hey if an ump wants his 15 mins of fame let him do it during spring training.

i could prob have Zippy's everyday all though id die young from all the grease.... but hey it would be a good life.

yeah i play on All Star and my hitting is way inconsistent and a lot of 1 run 2 run and 3 run ball games... hell last time i scored 4 runs was because Oliver Perez hit a 3 run HR
