i could see it as possibly being Locke with hair. But I have no doubt that there is a supernatural element(the murderous black fog) to the island that hasnt been explained yet, so who knows who or what Jacob could be.

QUOTE(fathom @ May 11, 2007 -> 09:38 AM) Predicted lineup: Erstad/Ozuna/PK/Dye/AJP/Crede/Iguchi/Uribe/Terrero Don't be mad if Sweeney doesn't play. Dont ask this of me, I cannot do that. I understand where Ozzie is coming from though, Odalis Perez is a tough lefty. I want to see the kid everyday now. I dont think I have been this excited about a prospect in a long time. There is just something I see in his approach at the plate that makes me think that he is the real deal, and the more time he spends in the minors, the more his growth will be stunted. Let it ride.

It is amazing what people can see and isolate with computers nowadays. 10 years ago this would have been a mystery with everyone saying "I saw it", "I didnt see anything", "I think I saw something", and no one would really know except the writers.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ May 11, 2007 -> 12:05 AM) Well, if you don't like it, you can go to the back of the bus. LMAO! Heads rules!

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2007 @ May 11, 2007 -> 01:40 AM) Did you actually read any of the pre-draft reports? The league he came from is supposed to be better than the NCAA. He was supposed to step right in and contribute. The tall guard the Bulls so desperately needed. I'm not saying the dude is garbage and will never amount to anything. But as far as right now, color me unimpressed. Draft Express http://www.draftexpress.com/viewprofile.php?p=280 ESPN http://myespn.go.com/profile/truehoop?arch...13&start=31 http://www.sportznutz.com/nba/nba_roundup/index.htm http://basketballdraftcentral.blogspot.com...mock-as-of.html http://nbadraft.rivals.com/content.asp?CID=557325 I see alot about potential, but I dont see much about ability to step in right away and contribute besides backing up Gordon and Hinrich. Most draft reports have him as a solid pick who is going to need some work, which is exactly what he is. I think you need to step back and realize how how he has progressed, how long he has been playing basketball, and how high his ceiling really is. The guy is a rookie and guarding some of the best players in the league in the 2nd round of the playoffs, and being commended for his defense. Calling him a bust is pretty narrow minded

At first when Mikhail told Ben of the outsider(helicopter Pilot) and looked surprised that she was on the island, I believed he was putting on a show for Locke so that Locke would believe that he didnt know about her. But when Ben shot Locke and basically lost it when Locke wasnt telling him what Jacob said, then I started to wonder what was really going through Bens mind. The great thing about Bens character is how he is able to manipulate any given situation by presenting anything as the truth at that time. I am really looking forward to seeing his transition to the leader of the Hostiles and how he got to where he was. And one thing that is still really bugging me is how Mikhail survived the fence. Blood doesnt tend to hemmorhage out of your nose, mouth and ears for no good reason. And if you survive that, you shouldnt be able to run around an island aimlessly.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 10, 2007 -> 12:44 PM) If Sweeney goes back to AAA when Thome comes back, Kenny REALLY needs to consider firing Ozzie. This is such a tired act. Just put it in your sig and stop repeating it. We all know how you feel

QUOTE(Big Hurtin @ May 10, 2007 -> 11:36 AM) Didn't they get reprimanded for creating artificial noise during Vikings games as well? Amplifying the noise that was already in there. Basically putting a microphone on the crowd and piping it through the speakers at full blast

QUOTE(LowerCaseRepublican @ May 10, 2007 -> 05:37 AM) But...but...but...he's a hoss! Are you not impressed with the rippling muscles and a lame ass sit out powerbomb?The students at my school are all pissed off that Edge won the belt from Taker. They hate all the heels. So, I keep promoting Vince. They also don't like that I am a huge Kennedy fan and an Edgehead. It is so much fun to make fun of Cena and Batista. It is truly an awful finishing move. Batista never completes the move and always ends up splayed out falling backwards

QUOTE(StrangeSox @ May 10, 2007 -> 12:35 AM) I don't see how much farther Charlie's character can go or how much more the whole Desmond seeing Charlie dieing can advance the plot. He's gone by the end of the season. Desmond tells charlie he is gonna die in this upcoming episode, but that doesnt mean that he isnt going to be revived. I still think Juliette is up to something and acting as the diversion. The other side of the tape with Bens recording is really fishy. It just seems canned and faked. QUOTE(thedoctor @ May 10, 2007 -> 07:00 AM) what the hell is up with that richard dude not aging? I thought the same thing. He looks younger than Ben, but he was at least 10 years older than Ben when he met him as a teenage boy.

Jacob just became interesting as well. I thought it was a show that Ben was putting on like Locke did, but Locke saw Jacob for a second and it freaked him out. I wonder if it is the spirit of one of the Dharma Initiative(maybe the guy whose eyes were closed by Ben?)

I refuse to believe Locke is done. The guy has beaten too many odds. Ben was a cold blooded MOFO. Its interesting that the Van driver was Bens dad.

You know what is sad? Danks probably wont get to have a beer shower.

MAcDougals velocity is down, something is up with him. He was throwing junk and lots of it.

How could Castillos ugly swing be so successful?

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 9, 2007 -> 09:06 PM) I guess it wasn't really "overpitching" but more of pitching when he shouldn't have. He was on the DL, came off, and pitched almost immediately after he came off. And hurt himself, bad, obviously. I think they should have shut him down until atleast September. Just my opinion. He should have been shut down for good, his elbow was done when he went down.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ May 9, 2007 -> 09:05 PM) Liriana was handled with kid gloves. They put him in the bullpen to start 2006 despite his readiness to dominate at the beginning of last season. Liriano had some injuries with the Giants, IIRC, and I thought I recall reading that his motion wasn't particularly 'clean'. Ha, similar post.

QUOTE(TitoMB345 @ May 9, 2007 -> 09:02 PM) A.K.A. Liriano. I dont know that Liriano was overpitched. He started in the bullpen, and they moved him to starter, he probably didnt have many innings on his arm when he went down. IIRC, his injury was due more to his pitching motion(ie. a loop in his delivery) that put a lot of stress on his elbow.

What is Molina's career Minor League BA?

That one is on the ump

You know, that curveball looks good, but it really fools hitters more than I expected. Right handers just watch it drop in the zone, it looks like meat. And they just watch it. It must really be filthy to the hitters.

Sorry Hawk, MacDougal wasnt the victim of bad luck last night. He got rocked.

Sometimes the Ump calls the left side of the strikezone, sometimes he doesnt. He hasnt been consistent at all.

I wonder if Gardenhire would have left Perkins in to face Sweeney or if he would have brought the tougher righty (Neshek) in to face Sweeney?

QUOTE(caulfield12 @ May 9, 2007 -> 07:39 PM) Hmmm...thought it was close enough to give him a double. I guess Tyner was shading him down the line, same as Erstad in the first. Rabe, not Tyner. Rabe of the weak armed, four hopper to home clan.
