YES!

Wow, just wow.

Widger.

We need the Durham-Valentin DP ball combo back.

QUOTE(Ndgt10 @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 06:12 PM) It was a delayed steal. Nonetheless, there is absolutly no reason to get cute about it. I could steal on Martinez. Horrible decision by Ozuna.

That was the worst jump I have ever seen.

QUOTE(stretchstretch @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 06:01 PM) are there any other teams in baseball that rest three starters per game so often?? it's great getting pods and AJ time off, but it seems a little excessive? Someone has a sig quote on this. We've only seen our starting line-up in 30% of the games this year.

Sweden should have had about 10 goals in the first half.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 02:42 AM) I still don't get that damn WCIU HD channel though I did get ESPN2HD today which was awesome for World Cup action. Do you have Comcast? Hopefully they finally came to terms...

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 04:01 AM) It's a long way to go, but if the season ended today, would Jermaine Dye be the league's MVP? He has a .316 BA. He is second in the AL in homers (Behind Thome) with 19. He has 46 RBI (the league leader has 53....also Thome). He has a league leading .677 slugging percentage. A .411 OBP, top 10 in the league and a league best 1.086 OPS. (#2 on the list is Jim Thome). Could you make a case for Jim Thome? What about other players around the league? Discuss.

Shawn Michaels. QUOTE(Goldmember @ Jun 10, 2006 -> 05:01 AM) dude sounds like a friggin idiot. maybe he was so jacked up on stuff he couldn't feel pain... He's only about 5'11, 210.

Funk is returning to ECW again. Should be interesting...

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 09:13 PM) Stupid comments and Dan Bernstein are synonymous.

I'm pretty sure it had something to do with the national TV deal they signed with WGN.

Yes. I know exactly how you feel.

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 05:48 PM) Since you say youve established that the SOX have dominated the Cubs in Media Coverage, you wouldnt happen to have any documentation/statistics/proof to validate this claim would you? Im curious because it sure seems quite the opposite. Especially in the last 10 years. No, because unlike you, I have come to accept the fact that the Cubs have a bigger fan-base, and therefore are going to get more news coverage. That's life. Unlike you, I have decided not to waste my time starting a jealous rage campaign with apparently made-up numbers.

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 05:29 PM) OK, Im busted. Ive doctored these totals for the last 4 years in an attempt to get more attention for the White Sox We established this already.

A 1. Germany 2. Ecuador 3. Costa Rica 4. Poland It's going to be tough for Costa Rica to get through since they lead off with the hosts or else I would take them. I don't know about Poland, I just don't like 2 European teams getting through here. B 1. England 2. Sweden 3. Paraguay 4. Trinidad and Tobago Sweden really isn't spectacular, but they got lucky and will only have to face off against the last teams to qualify out of North and South America. C 1. Holland 2. Argentina 3. Serbia and Montenegro 4. Ivory Coast This is the GoD, but I believe both Holland and Argentina are much better than the other two. D 1. Portugal 2. Iran 3. Mexico 4. Angola Going out on a limb just because Mexico has been down as of late. E 1. Italy 2. United States 3. Czech Republic 4. Ghana The US will need the '02 magic to advance, but I think they can capture it. F 1. Brazil 2. Croatia 3. Japan 4. Austrailia I don't think either Japan or Austrailia will provide much of a challenge. G 1. France 2. South Korea 3. Switzerland 4. Togo Go Togo! H 1. Saudi Arabia 2. Spain 3. Ukraine 4. Tunisia I had to go out on a limb somewhere, so this is it. Despite being the worst pool, I like Spain as my struggling European power, but I think they'll still get through. Saudi Arabia rolled through Asian qualifying, so I like them to take this group. Second Round Germany over Sweden Holland over Iran England over Ecuador Argentina over Portugal Croatia over Italy Spain over France Brazil over US Saudi Arabia over South Korea Quarters Holland over Germany Argentina over England Spain over Croatia Brazil over Saudi Arabia Semi's Holland over Argentina Spain over Brazil Championship Spain over Holland

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 03:25 PM) Whether or not there is a test for HGH yet is a point of debate, with contradicting stories from all kinds of people. Some I've heard say there is an HGH test through a blood test that was ready just in time for Turin, others have said they did the blood tests and kept samples "retroactively", so that when there is an HGH test ready, then can go back and check the blood samples for it. That issue is VERY confusing. IIIRC, both cases are actually correct. Their not sure if the current tests for HGH actually work, so their being cautious with it and also storing the blood just in case.

Played it, don't own it. It's absolutly terrible. Get MLB2k6 instead.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 04:22 AM) Goldberg. Remember when he won 170 straight matches? An amazing run...

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 04:21 AM) I was actually suspicious of his 2004 vs 2005 stats, as well as many other players. Not to turn this into a Pods thread, but I doubt it. His HR numbers came at the expense of all of his other stats. I think his numbers were a change in hitting style.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 04:16 AM) He might be the only guy I am still sure is clean...him and Adam Dunn. Only the giant ex football players are safe apparently. Scotty Pods has had an increase in power lately...

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Jun 9, 2006 -> 03:35 AM) You guys are very lucky with the time zone. Unfortunately for me, most of the games are on at about 2a.m Yeah. Korea/Japan 2002 was hell.

IMO, it'd be worse for baseball to see guys like Pujols and Alex Rodriguez(Note: A-Rod has never been connected to anything, but he fits the category of young stud trying to save baseball) get caught than to see Bonds, McGwire, or Sosa go down.
