QUOTE (Jake @ Sep 2, 2008 -> 07:10 PM) OC is very good over there. hes been so much better defensively in the second half than he has in the first....even though he blew that one rays game a week or two ago

in absolutely no way am i defending playing owens, but i never understand the BA love....whats wrong with an OF of swisher griffey dye with PK at first? edit: besides defense lol

QUOTE (JohnCangelosi @ Sep 1, 2008 -> 08:15 PM) Well, the Twins have 3 games left on this road trip where we were supposed to gain ground and we're all even. I can't say I am surprised. We definitely have to be the underdog going down the stretch in my opinion. well in fairness we were buried on a 10 game road trip ourselves....and it was against tougher teams....just because of the 14 day trip people said the twins had the harder shcedule....but hte sox IMO have had the harder schedule the whole time....meanwhile we have another 10 game road trip coming up after this next long homestand...

who the hell is umpiring this game? i cant believe that first pitch to asdrubal was a strike after the stuff he hasnt called...christ...game over

cliff lee this entire year has hit his spots effortlessly...i have no idea how he sucked so bad in the past, i guess he has a ton of new found command

clayton really getting squeezed it seems like

play should have been made...but its my opinion that in every other game that isnt a no hitter...thats called a hit 80 percent of the time

yikes...clayton is just horrible fielding....its all mental too, he just needs to get out there and practice that to the point where he can gain confidence and get over that problem

QUOTE (zenryan @ Aug 30, 2008 -> 10:27 PM) This is why the SEC is so much better than everyone else. They have so many elite coaches in that conference its not even funny. Clemson has talent but Alabama is so prepared and basically shut down Clemson. Look at how many coaches in the SEC have national title rings. Saban Miles Spurrier Meyer Fulmer Then you add Richt, Tuberville, Petrino, Nutt. Unbelievable. heh and bobby johnson was a D-1AA legend at Furman before vandy...which actually really means nothing

running bases....or for those of you weirdos who prefer to call it "hotbox"

i hate chad johnson....people all along have been saying.."oh hes not as bad as TO because his stunts are all in fun"....yeah punching your head coach, gettin in arguments with your QB, asking for trades, saying you cant play for your team anymore...yeah thats all in good fun the guys a douche and this is just a way to put the camera square on himself...let your play do the talking and quit being such a selfish prick

how about the 3-1 call to kosuke and the howard play at 1st? cubs really getting some help from the umps...they are more vulnerable in the playoffs than they look right now, theyve been pulling games out of their asses lately...and i dont think their starters (particularly dempster and the august version of Z) are going to match up against good offensive teams in the postseason too well....

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 27, 2008 -> 09:16 PM) It happens...we've been playing close games for a long time now. I was thinking yesterday that we could have easily been on a 12 game win streak. actually the number of times weve been blown out this year is pretty low...i guess thatll happen with our pitching, but there was a stretch to start the year where we had gone like our first 50 games and it seemed we hadnt been blown out more than once

wait a second you actually got banned for four years? you can get banned for that long without it being permanent? props on remembering to come back....you didnt make another name? wow i would either done that or just left and forgotten about it.... what did you get banned for

mully and hanley were talking about it....brian hanley sure didnt like jay....mulligan was taking the more PC approach saying he had a good relationship with jay, even though he knew jay ruffled some peoples feathers....hanley seemed more straight forward and was willing to talk about why people hated jay.....seemed like hanley resented the fact that jay got special treatment from the sun times by being able to be a high profile writer without having any accountability and being ya know, at the games and in the clubhouses

QUOTE (Benchwarmerjim @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 11:17 PM) Well, the M's wanted one of the Twins starters plus some more pitching when the Twins inquired about him earlier this year so contreras and wasserman?

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 11:12 PM) ghey, Brendan Harris just saved a run by making a diving stop down the line. Maybe saved 2 runs. Maybe I should watch Adult Swim instead because Family Guy reruns are fun. funny you should sya that....i have family guy on tv and the twins game on mlbtv on my computer

QUOTE (fathom @ Aug 26, 2008 -> 10:38 PM) Circle Me Bert sounds very deflated. bert blylevan should be happy his games arent broadcast nationally, or else (from a national standpoint) people would hate him more than they hate hawk....not only is he an enormous homer, hes a dickhead and a poor announcer IMO

only a 6 page game thread? wow....no fathom? double wow

john edwards: jealous

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Aug 25, 2008 -> 11:12 PM) Beat me to it. There are already fantasy discussions about this guy, being a keeper option in dynasty leagues. Supposed to have insane stuff. i think strausburg struck out like 23 batters in a game earlier this year or something

i rarely dressed up for class in college...but almost always refused to wear bball shorts or sweat pants/adidas style athletic pants to class too...winter was often whatever jeans were laying around + sweatshirt, while warmer weather was real shorts + tshirt or whatever i could find to wear....oh i also wore a baseball hat probably 75% of the days to class now that im out of college though and in graduate school, i can honestly say i try to at least look nice when i go to a lecture...i think its just a difference in my attitude and how i want to be perceived...i'll at least try to wear a pair of nicer jeans and a collared shirt, but there are my days where i roll in lookin grungy too

whats the word on linebrinks timetable? what the hell is he even injured with anyways?

awful baseball call
