QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 20, 2006 -> 11:19 PM) FlashTizzle has been added to the ranks. He will be the lone mod of the Diamond Club. Flash may secretly like the Twins (as do I...how can you note like Santana and Liriano) but he's also a damn good poster who while may be a bit brash at times, has a lot of really good ideaas and baseball knowledge. He'll be a welcome addition.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Jun 20, 2006 -> 09:17 PM) Also, being left out on this list is the fact that Deploderer is now a mod of the How Does this Work forum. With his photoshoppin abilities and what not, he seemed like a natural fit. Hasn't he been for awhile?

Of course the people who bring on this stuff are extremly dumb, but I don't mind seeing MySpace getting the bejeezuz out of them.

Best thread ever.

I honestly couldn't even tell you what station it is on, but Rescue Me is incredible. One of the best shows on TV in a long while. I've seen about 6 or 7 episodes on my friend's Tivo, but that's it. I'm very impressed though.

QUOTE(Felix @ Jun 19, 2006 -> 12:35 AM) I'm pretty sure you are reading into it more than you should be. Perry merely said that Count wouldn't end the year with an ERA below 3, but stated that he would still be a productive part of the rotation. In such a short blurb, why mention it at all? Raising an ERA by as little as .04 is certainly insignificant, yet Perry decided to point it out anyway, as if he wouldn't be as good as he is now if he did so.

That's the best line. Count has a 2.96 ERA right now, but Perry makes it seem like raising an ERA by 0.04 is some sort of catastrophe. :headshake

Croatia making it difficult for itself, unfortunatly. :banghead However, I still like their chances.

Make it stop God, make it stop.

I posted about this in the WC thread. I absolutly despise those commercials. A poor marketing campaign all around, poor actor or not.

We need the Dep cycle banners again.

Hangar, where do your total numbers go back to?

QUOTE(3 BeWareTheNewSox 5 @ Jun 15, 2006 -> 06:37 AM) Sounds like shots at Arena http://my.whitesox.v.mlb.com/newsarticle.a...rticleId=701923 Don't follow the US team that much, but found it a little odd that Arena blasted Donovan and Beasley in public. Isn't he the one playing them out of position? Is it common in soccer(as in in Europe) to be so open about your players to the media? Not even Ozzie would do something like this to a current player.

QUOTE(mr_genius @ Jun 15, 2006 -> 05:08 AM) uh, yea, it is. if your manager tells you to throw at someone you do it. gotta back up your teammates. if you don't want to do that you have no business on this team. He did. He just missed.

Just hope he doesn't become the Ross Gload of the bullpen.

IRRC, there was absolutly no interest in him. And it was a surprise at the time that no one would take a chance on him.

A good attempt at sarcasm. You had me going for a bit.

QUOTE(fathom @ Jun 15, 2006 -> 02:07 AM) If Tracey gets sent down after this game because of this situation, I'll be extremely disappointed. My guess is that he won't get sent down with Cliff coming back pretty soon. I doubt he gets used much until then, though.

Crede has been an absolute disgrace at the plate lately. He better pick it up.

QUOTE(Hangar18 @ Jun 14, 2006 -> 06:33 PM) note how only 1 person has commented on the use of a Cell Phone in baseball and how its use might change the way communication works (felix). Im not sure what the other comments are supposed to be in favor of them? are they breakthrough? Not really? Crains Business thinks this is a big deal too, not sure why, its a CELL PHONE, theres nothing new about it Hangar, do you care what kind of undershirt Ozzie Guillen wears during Sox games? Neither do I. However, this did not stop the media running countless stories on it last year. Fact is, the media will pick up these semi-interesting tidbits and make them bigger than they actually are. It happens.

It's a semi-interesting topic that the media is having fun with. So what?

Wow. Saudi Arabia-Tunisia, what a game.
