Go Sox!!! and I'm sorry to ask, but is Griffey in the clubhouse?

well it's certainly the most specific of the outfield positions.

Because that's not the narrative.

always have to wonder about contributing factors with studies like this but that's cool for them.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 10:23 PM) Bowers Single handedly made me go out and buy the "Pump" glove. He made me learn math.

I was really sad that I got to the trade thread so late I missed the trade for Big Hurt/sign Bonds/ all 90s team ftw jokes

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 10:20 PM) Im just glad they started Wedman (sp?) Rock Raines made a sweet cameo in that flick.

offensively, from what we were looking at in the beginning of the season, pretty cool.

where's the "excited because we added one of my favorite players even if I'm not sure how it helped us" option

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 10:01 PM) You still have to question why they pitched to him with an open base in that big game. he trusted his guys. You know, if he would've kept the ultimatum, I'm sure that guy would've hit the home run. BUt griffey really snatched that shi**.

that sucks. The real possibility of college can do wonders for students psyche from what I saw in my high school. When my classmates saw little possibility to rise the social ladder, High School was just going through the motions.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 09:02 PM) Obama's inexperienced and is being portrayed to the masses as a rock star. 200,000 people (AFTER attending a free concert, by the way, which is hardly EVER reported) are screaming OBAMA OBAMA OBAMA!!! Now, what the hell does Germany have to do with OUR election? Oh, that's right, we need the Europeans opinion and good graces on EVERYTHING again, because they love America so much (ahem) and REALLY care about who our president is. Right. Europe loves Europe, and ONLY if they agree with us do they like us. I don't give a rip if the pope were president, it will always be that way. He's against drilling - HE IS. So what's "NEGATIVE" about pointing both of these things out? Is Obama ready to lead? It's a damn good question, and asking it is not "negative", it's rhetorical, to make people think about it. OH OH MCCAIN'S DESPARATE! Whatever. And again, Obama walks on water and gets a free pass. you really go from 0 to 100 so easily. One, the Europeans very much really really do care who our president is. It affects them much more than france electing Beavis Sarkozy or Merkel in Germany affects us. Or at least they realize how what america does affects them as opposed to most people not understanding what the hell europe is doing right now. Obama has never put out talking points saying he should be president because the germans like him. He did a middle east-euro campaign tour much like McCain did, and did a much better job of creating imagery and excitement, quell peoples worries about experience. McCain got beat so bad over the challenge he issued Obama that he's trying to flip it as if it's a bad thing that our allies love our nominee. Europe only loves us when our policies agree with them...sounds pretty reasonable. You probably like Europe a lot more when they go along with our coalitions and policies. Sounds like self-interest. Those commies. And as for drilling. Look at the ad. What is really being said here? I'm for offshore drilling and Obama's not! Or is it, you know why gas prices are high? (OBAMA). Now, the sad part is the latter is actually not hyperbole. I don't think I need to explain how misleading and false that is and how even if the issue is at hand how misleading and false that is.

Who wants to watch little big league and see Griffey break those little twins hearts?!?!?!?

what the hell is this music?

trade deadline 3 p.m. eastern?

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 06:03 PM) I am just saying that I think we both like him for similar reasons. I have a broad range of reasons. I just cant articulate them very well. you can give +1's for every paragraph you agree with.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 07:04 PM) And other teams would want an overpaid player hitting .211 because??? Well, I think we can get Santana, Figgins and Kotchman for him.

is maccullough going to make the majors?

QUOTE (Texsox @ Jul 30, 2008 -> 03:31 PM) Seriously, someone run through this visit/non visit and tell me how it should influence someone's vote? What insight does this offer on Obama and how he would be as President? Well, he didn't throw up on any of the foreign ministers or trip coming out of the helicopters...so kudos.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 05:57 PM) I think we probably would have a lot of the same points in common. I'll leave the writing up to you though. I am a far less eloquent writer. I'm not very good at articulating my ideas. hold on, I can't be writing the essential Obama supporter piece. Reasons I like Obama may be pretty different, one of the big reasons I turned to his campaign was he was an academic and welcomed academics. And apparently there are democrats that "don't put their lots in with the economists", so I don't know if that is a reason they like him.

QUOTE (Friend of Nordhagen @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 06:56 PM) Then he'll be in for a rude awakening when he drops below .300 by the end of the year. Still a quality player (big fan of his, actually), but I don't think the end of this year will be pretty for him at the dish --a little over his head right now. probably not, this is the NL for goodness sakes, Ryan Ludwik and SKIP schumacher are stars.

QUOTE (Jimbo's Drinker @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 06:53 PM) 1/2 the games are on the road?? 1/2 are on the road, not a single other stadium.

SOMETHING ODD IS GOING ON WITH THIS RADIO BIZ

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Jul 31, 2008 -> 05:50 PM) Well, I mean on the issues, and explaining my perspective beyond short snippets. The problem is that's pretty time consuming. I really would enjoy a really good debate about it, but unfortunately, I don't have a lot of time right now. I will write up an essay on why I chose Obama over Clinton and why I support him when I finish up my summer school classes, and attached will be why he is important beyond the issues.
