I've been to a lot of places out of the country. For me it's difficult to choose because I don't like cruises. I like to be on my own schedule and agenda. That's just me,

How did Cleve. get their 4th run last night? Must have been a homer, off of who?

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 14, 2005 -> 01:27 PM) Ahhh..I see. To be honest.. I've bought and sold concert tickets on ebay without incident.. never even thought about a possible one. I thought Paypal offered insurance though.. not 100% sure. Suddenly, I want U2 tix, don't ask me why. They have a lot for sale on that site, some of them for fair prices, some of them seem to good to be true, that's why I'm suspicious. I don't wanna get screwed with either fake tix, or seats that are actually nosebleed or not together, etc. I was just wondering if anyone had ever bougth tix from that particular site.

A few years ago, I used a freind's vouchers and they didn't ask me for any kind of proof. I think I went to the box office on the day of the game, handed it to them and got half price off of our tix.

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 14, 2005 -> 03:32 AM) Doesn't PayPal offer insurance....? No clue, that's kinda what I'm asking. Basically, someone can say they have certain tix, ask to be paid via PayPal, send me bogus tix and then dissapear, right? What's the protection on sites like E Bay?

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2004 @ Apr 14, 2005 -> 02:42 AM) I agree. You need to change the title of this thread. Change it, why? He IS shut down until Monday. I really didn't mean to cause any alarm. Am I missing something here?

Last night someone committed a 3 run error in the bottom of the ninth which cost his team (Giants?) the game. I did something very similar in H.S. The following day, there was a small write up about it in The Sun Times. My coach, blew it up and taped it outside his office for everyone to see. Kinda funny now, but I wanted to transfer schools at the time. What is your worst, personal sports moment. Any type of organzied sports story will do.

.......from all activity til next Monday. He has tendonitis in his ankle due to the scar tissue, per Comcast post game telecast.

Furniture is a pretty safe purchase since you have to go to their house. The furniture is there or it's not. Tickets usually get shipped to you after you've paid via paypal. What if my tix never show up?

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 09:41 PM) It's less because of pinch-hitters. But does it matter? If the DH in the A.L. doesn't affect pitchers, why do most baseball analysts say that there is around a 1 run difference in pitchers' ERAs when going from the N.L. to the A.L.? I think I read that usually a pitcher faces another pitcher in the NL maybe twice per game. Once a reliever's turn to hit comes up, usually he gets yanked for a pinch hitter. So, it doesn't factor into it that much. It's impossible to compare the 2 at this point in their careers. Like I said, I get a feeling that 5 years from now, Mark will prove to clearly be the better pitcher.

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 08:52 PM) Which is why Buehrle's career ERA is actually better than Wood's. Wood gets to face a pitcher in the #9 spot. On average, how many times per game does a pitcher hit in the NL?

Anyone ever but tix to anything from this site? Not sure if I should trust it.

QUOTE(ChiSoxyGirl @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 08:44 PM) *CoughAroundTheHornBoardCough* ?????

I bet Wood has had a lot lees run support, so he has less wins but a lower ERA. To me, ERA is the thing I look at. It's neck and neck, in the long run, Mark will prove to be better, he will outlast Wood.

I got my groomsmen this all in one Swiss army knife type of thing from Sharper Image. This thing must have like 40 different attachments on it. I got my best man something special at my bachelor party.....it's ok, he was and is still single.

I read somewhere that 80% of double headers end in a split, but I predict the Cubs lose em both today.

On average, how may runs do their teams score while they're on the hill?

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 08:01 PM) Simply put.. a shade of blue. It's got some fancy name.. but I can't remember it. They bought off the rack at Nordstroms which ironically saved time and $$. More $$ to buy gifts.. LOL Ah, yes, we musn't forget the gifts.

I like, it's very classy and elegant.....as a wedding gown should be. What color are the bridesmaids wearing?

Update, got an envelope with 15 pocket schedules in the mail today.

QUOTE(WilliamTell @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 07:40 PM) haha for a normal hitter it isn't too bad. But this Crede we're talking about. Still he should be able to put up at least a .265 average I would think I'd take .260, .270+ would be awesome, it's Crede we're talking about.

QUOTE(qwerty @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 06:26 PM) .250 i think you mean. well that ain't too bad.

Cubs down 7-3 in the 7th, Wood Head got rocked early. Prior should be interesting too, with 10 innings under his belt all year AND an injury.

If he went 1 for 4 in every game, for all 162 games, he'd have a 162 game hitting streak and it would make him a .225 hitter overall, right?

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Apr 13, 2005 -> 03:11 PM) I wonder how much of everything is related to each other. Some of the earthquake activity could be related to magma movement, or the earthquake activity could be causing new paths for the magma to work to the surface. Interesting stuff anyway you look at it. I'm sure it's all related.
