You cannot count out the World Series runner-up Rockies either, I guess

I always loved the *snap* sound that they use for punches, kicks, and Indy's whip

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Feb 14, 2008 -> 02:58 PM) Aside from the Mets the Cubs have as good a chance at winning the world series as any team in the NL IMO. I agree, they definitely have a shot. However, i would not want to hear one of the White Sox players calling their shot like that.

Would all of these coaches who snubbed IU 3 years ago snub them again, given the talent currently on the team, and the talent coming in(despite the talent leaving)? 3 years ago, IU was struggling, no?

Werent all of these guys supposed to be traded for Brian Roberts? Now we see why they werent, they needed to get their stuff back It always blows me away when professional ballplayers steal. edit: I misread the story, I thought the thief was a player.

Ha, ESPN is saying that Devean George is blocking the Jason Kidd trade by evoking his no trade clause. LOL

QUOTE(lvjeremylv @ Feb 13, 2008 -> 01:43 PM) The only flaw in that statement is this - the NBA did not turn a blind eye to the situation and pretend it didn't exist. They dealt with it swiftly and strongly, and that helped to greatly minimize any damage that could have been done to the sport. If baseball had dealt with steroids as swiftly and strongly in the 80's (70's?) instead of allowing it to spread and grow because of greed, we wouldn't be having this discussion today. Depending on how long you think David Stern knew about the allegations. Some people think he knew about it for quite some time

QUOTE(lvjeremylv @ Feb 13, 2008 -> 01:15 PM) Several flukes in the same bullpen? Interesting coincidence. There are lots of reasons why an athlete might stop taking performance enhancing drugs. Fear of getting caught; guilt from cheating; no longer needing them since they achieved their objective (whatever that may be); wanting to stop before putting their body in greater danger. Those are 4 possible answers. I don't want to make it sound like I for sure believe that the 2005 Sox were up to no good. I really hope that the stars aligned that year and everything worked out in our favor. It was the greatest moment of my sports life, and if it came to light that there were HGH or steroids involved, it would greatly disappoint me and tarnish that entire year of my life. But to dismiss the possibility categorically is not prudent. Strange, because thats exactly how your arguments sound, lol

Based on everything presented thus far, how does this look for McNamee and Clemens? Who looks like the liar at this point?

Bullpen pitchers are always such a crapshoot, they can be lights out or just be flat out horrible. Many times when you see teams that win the world series, their bullpens will be having career years, with certain unexpected surprises leading the way, and then you see bullpens like the Sox had last year that completely implode as a whole. I think it is just the nature of the beast with bullpens, more than PEDs/Steroids/HGH Im not completely ruling out drugs, but I wouldnt say they are more suspicious than any other World Series bullpen.

Work prevents me from watching, i am living vicariously through controlled chaos

Bring Back Max Headroom!

I saw "The Last Mimzy" last night on HBO. I thought it was pretty cool, the alice in wonderland and UFO/Future tie-in was interesting

I think I am going to read "The Darktower Series" again just for fun

Sidney Ponson part 2?

I have so much on my plate at all times, I always forget something. Yet, I can recall instances that happened years ago with remarkable clarity

Thats a pretty nice offer from WWE to put Scott Hall up in rehab considering Scott Halls long history of screwing over his employers.
