QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Oct 25, 2011 -> 03:19 PM) Can you remember ever hearing a story and thinking how incredibly unlikely it was? JUST GIVE ME SOMETHING TO WORK WITH, PEOPLE! The St. Louis Cardinals, 2011 World Series, game 6. Hell, most of the rest of their season too. Ditto the Red Sox/Braves collapses. That's why one becomes a sports fan.

Stark

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 28, 2011 -> 09:18 AM) I'd have no problems with that. That basically means drug testing the entire country.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 28, 2011 -> 08:58 AM) Guess I shouldn't have gone to bed in the 9th inning I had that feeling something worth watching was going to happen when I went to bed. Sigh.

Here's video with Joe Buck's call if anyone wants to see it. Games like this make me want to get back to Pacific Time Zone.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 28, 2011 -> 08:39 AM) If Flowers is hitting, he is playing. I don't think there is any doubt about that. Ozzie is gone. We don't have to have the slavery to vets anymore. Couple points. First of all...I don't know what Robin will be like in this regard. No guarantee he won't have his guys also...and secondly, we're also talking about the catcher's position, and its not just the manager who makes the call there...the pitching coach and the pitchers are going to have input over who they like too.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Oct 28, 2011 -> 01:19 AM) I just want it done with and to learn tomorrow that Louisville and West Virginia are headed to the Big 12. I'm convinced it will be years before this is "Done".

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 28, 2011 -> 08:36 AM) If Flowers is putting up a .750 OPS, he has probably replaced AJ. I bet you the opposite would happen. They'll go with the "Veteran lefty" unless Flowers is really raking.

We are the worlds dominant economic power because of the financial system Hamilton developed. A fair number of guys on that list wanted the states to remain agrarian based economies.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Oct 28, 2011 -> 02:09 AM) Not even saying this cause I despise Ozzie but he's been a f***in hassle to listen to because well you can't understand a damn thing he says. AJ actually provides seem decent analysis and has a good tv demeanor, I enjoy him. AJ is one of those guys who could easily manage someday if his roster didn't try to kill him first.

Cards pick up a 2-year option on Wainright

Cruz apparently tweaked his groin in his last at bat, Napoli had x-rays on his ankle, and Holliday is beaten up.

F***ing useless bunt

QUOTE (knightni @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 10:45 PM) btb! I was tapping on the iPhone when Cruz hit that. Didnt need to look up. Knew it was demolished by the sound.

Shack, of Texas holds on, then you were right about beltre being a good deal for texas.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 09:45 PM) So how many instances of people killing police officers happened over that same time period? About 50 die in traffic accidents and 50 are killed by firearms in an average year. Texas led the nation by a fair amount last year. Total runs 125-150 the last 2 years.

I can't imagine holland starting tomorrow after this much warmig Is he coming in? Yup. 3 days rest for both tomorrow.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 10:25 PM) And a complete collapse of Tyler Flowers. I wouldn't say "collapse" if flowers put up a .750 ops but AJ helped lead a winning team I bet AJ would be brought back for 1 more year.

What a clutch throw

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 09:48 PM) Perhaps not an extension, but it's certainly possible he gets brought back in a similar fashion to this last go-around. That would likely require a winning Sox team this year and a very productive AJ as well. I'd be content with that. He's not likely to come back for anything other than a minimum deal if the Sox finish in 3rd place.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Oct 27, 2011 -> 08:57 PM) I'm jealous too...was there in Sept...awesome, awesome state... Balta, I drove through both Corvallis and Eugene, and both were absolutely beautiful. You'd love it there. Keep us posted. Trust me, success would provoke many, many drunken celebratory posts.
