Rowand44

This team is absolutely burning hot right now but this game worries me a bit. Freddy was basically 05 Freddy his last start and he just looked much better overall(though he still gave up 4 runs). Hopefully he can keep the cards down and watch the O score 25 today.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:58 PM) I seem to recall a certain avatar . . . Ya, well I think everyone knows what I thought of those when they were up and I really don't want to revisit that.

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:26 PM) I can't speak for anyone else, but I did not think that. There were plenty of people here who didn't think this team would choke last september.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:27 PM) Totally to be expected, absolutely nothing surprising here. There is a precedent and this certainly follows it. Can I ask what the precedent is, kalapse? I just seem to recall most of these suspensions being only a game.

I mean this is an embarrasment but does Ghana have any pride? Seriously, rolling around the ground for 10 minutes everytime they get touched, just ridiculous.

Ghana are a bunch of pansies.

My god.

Anytime ghana gets touched they just roll around for like 10 minutes.

This is the good guy, right? lol

Aren't you supposed to move forward if you're trying to score?

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 09:24 AM) f*** you Reyna. Dribbles the ball out of the back, gets his pocket picked like a noob and then its a 3 on 1 break, goal Ghana. Its time Arena to lift the 4-5-1 now. It hasnt worked the entire cup. Put in the 3-5-2 and go balls to the wall attack. EJ needs to come in. Could you explain what that means a bit for the soccer impaired?

Argh.

Alright everyone, I cleaned this thread out a bit lets try to keep this semi civil por favor.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 01:45 AM) Two of my horses are playing tomorrow and Italy (one of my horses) could really help my main horse out (US) by picking up a win. Of course US still needs to take care of things themselves. My 3rd horse (the Doitch, ie Dutch) will be moving on and ready and willing to beat up on the Portugese. They are soccer teams not horses.

QUOTE(SnB @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:36 AM) I once saw joe crede leave the parking lot. That's cause you stalk him.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:29 AM) How can you make that claim? Watch the replay of even the face breaker catch he made earlier this year against the Mets, he had a TERRIBLE read on that ball. Same goes for the catches he made in NY that got him on the map last year. Rowand was a very good fielder because he caught it if he got to it, but his terrible reads and not great speed made catches Anderson makes look easy very hard for Crash. Aaron gets about as good of reads gap to gap as anyone in baseball. He has problems on the short ball which is why I said Brian is a bit of a better cf but it certainly isn't that huge of a gap imo. Basically, you're calling aaron a very average cf which isn't true at all.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:24 AM) Rowand gets bad reads . This is absolute bull.

Both get tremendous reads and jumps, Brian is better at getting to the short ball because he plays further in. Brian is faster and does have a better arm but he also misses the cut off man way too damn much. IMO it's pretty damn close but I give Brian the slight advantage though he has to learn to hit the damn cut off man. QUOTE(SoxAce @ Jun 22, 2006 -> 12:13 AM) Name me one game where his defense, or his mental errors cost us. EDIT: Keeping this beautiful sig just to piss off Kalapse for a good while.. He missed the cut off man in the reds game on saturday which cost us a run, he did the same thing yesterday that allowed the runners to move up but vaz got out of it.

QUOTE(SnB @ Jun 21, 2006 -> 11:49 PM) THE NEXT GAME WE GO TO WILL BE THE TIME WE WIN! You have a better chance of beating me at beeramid.
