Middle Buffalo

Is it possible to find a way to have the score posted on game threads? I always come into them, but leave because I have absolutely no idea what the score is. Not looking to create more work for anyone, but if it's not too hard to do, it would be a nice feature.

Pizza, hot dogs, beef. Who cares? I'd commit Harry Caray for a White Castle's slider.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Aug 25, 2005 -> 10:42 AM) Wasn't Schilling also the one who destroyed a QUESTEC? Yeah, he did. Probably because nobody knows more than Curt about anything. Especially a machine.

I once tried to do 100 shots of beer in 100 minutes. Same result as the gallon of milk. I think I got to 60-65, but to tell the truth, I was feeling kind of bad in the teens. It's not really all that much beer, it's the carbonation that catches up with you. And 60 seconds goes unbelievably quick when you don't want it to. :puke

I'm sitting here waiting 2 hours for a guy at work to make a pick in fantasy football. Plus, I've got a turtle sniffing cotton, but am too lazy to get up and do anything about it. Life's good.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Aug 25, 2005 -> 06:15 AM) I dont remember Schilling as being such a Gossip Queen and Mr. Controversy until he got to Boston. Did he have an hourlong spot on a radio show when he was in Philly or Arizona? Definitely had one in Phoenix. He was on once a week for 30 minutes or so. I can't stand Schilling, but have to admit it's kind of refreshing to hear a guy speak his mind. I just happen to disagree with his moral superiority on every issue. One of the highlights of that day when the players sat before Congress was when the one guy (don't remember his name) said he was just handed an article that appeared in SI that has Schilling quoted saying that steroids were rampant in baseball. Schilling did not deny the statements, but said that upon reflection, he was wrong about that. Sure, Curt. Methinks Palmeiro, Sammy, and McGuire weren't the only ones who lied on that day. Curt Schilling - The Conscience of Baseball I for one am glad that Ben Davis bunted for a single to break up this puds perfect game bid. FU and your unwritten rules, Schill.

What ever happened to Lorenzo Barcelo (sp?). I know he had surgery shortly after he was acquired ("white flag" trade, I think). Anyone know?

Here's what a fight between Jack McDowell and BMac would look like.

^^^^^^^^^ What do your sources tell you?

Just clicking on this subject probably puts me on the FBI watch list.

When I lived in Chicago, I used to get "smell deja-vu" all the time. You know, "this reminds me of...." Unfortunately, here in Phoenix, I'm pretty sure the dry heat has melted that receptor in my nose/brain. Every once in a while, though, I'll look at a mop bucket and flash back to happpppy hour at CO's in Champaign. So many beers, so many beers.

QUOTE(CWSOX45 @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 07:19 PM) Time to can Walker, I'm sorry, but we need a guy with fresh ideas in there.... Like a coach who will introduce the idea that the Sox string together a few hits? Walker must be crazy. Telling these guys to go up and swing at the first pitch, strikeout, or pop-up.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Aug 23, 2005 -> 12:00 PM) That new guy who was on Baseball Tonight a week ago, Oversta (something liek that,) said he knew how old Julio was but wouldn't say. i would be very curious to know. Um, 47?

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 22, 2005 -> 05:22 AM) Sometimes, this type of info is correct and sometimes it's not. And, we still don't know actually anything. An announcement could be made today, tomorrow, 6 months from now, etc. Maybe they'll wait five years, and just as Roger is about to make his HOF induction speech, someone from Price Waterhouse will step onto the stage and announce the results of his 2005 pee test. Cue Peter Gammons chinless wimpering.

Are they broadcasting from someplace original, like Wrigley?

Not counting college, I lived in my parent's house for 26 years, then an apartment for a few months, then my first house with my wife. Then we moved 3 years ago from Chicago to Phoenix (wife's company moved us - and we took everything that wasn't nailed down). Unfortunately, I've spent the last 3 years trying to get rid of all the crap we moved.

QUOTE(Kid Gleason @ Aug 19, 2005 -> 11:50 AM) I'm not a betting man, but if I was, I'm betting this is all hogwash. If that's the case, please ban the guy who started this.

One of the best things I ever saw was that guy at the Bears game in the mid 90's(Mike Pantazis?) who leaped out into the tunnel from the stands and caught the extra point after it sailed through the uprights. Unbelievable timing and athleticism. I'm pretty sure they were playing the Packers, and I'm positive that the Bears should have signed him on the spot. And so goes my 200th post.

I try to change team names every year, unlike some of the guys in my leagues, and I figured I'd see what names some of you use. This year I'm going with "Beecher Tool & Dye" (heard Terry Boers say this several years ago), and I'm using "Wicked Pepper Steak" (from "The Blues Brothers" - first R-rated movie I ever saw) in another league.

I understand why players are allowed to appeal before their names become public, but it kind of reeks of cover-up. I think they should do away with the MLB run drug testing and go with an independent agency. Either that, or line up all of the players, have them pull down their pants, and anyone with nuts smaller than John Kruk's gets a 10 game suspension. Proof positive.

I did one a few weeks ago and forgot what it was called. Thanks for posting that.

Good to see the word assclown is not limited to this site. PS What happened to the "W" in the 3BTNS5 signature?

QUOTE(Whitesoxfan56 @ Aug 18, 2005 -> 08:59 AM) THats not that good, but in compairisent here are our starters WHIP during the last 30 days: Must the Southsider ooze out of you?

It worked. Now, I'll spend the rest of my morning doing this until I finally defeat my disobedient foot.
