I expect the radical right to find issue with this as well.

Bullpen blowing the lead.

QUOTE (Cali @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 04:34 PM) you're so terrible Brent...thank god that situation will never be replicated during the regular season haha The Shire will be ready for harvesting in late March so he won't be able to stick around much longer.

We are going to surprise a lot of the 'experts' when it's all said and done this year.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 01:55 PM) What profound effect did it have on subsequent seasons? The cheap players they gave up were bad and the $3.5M terrible pitcher they acquired was only on a 1 year deal. Seeing that the 2003 year was one where we were quite close to winning the division, who knows what might have happened had we not made that trade. Many people think that the 2003 team was arguably the best we've had in over a decade. We wound up 4 back for the division and who knows if we kept those 3 nobodies if maybe one of them had a flash in the pan year that could have gotten us over the top...ala Cotts in 2005. Or maybe we could have used them as trade pieces for something more effective for 2003 instead of a complete waste in Ritchie.

And you can't go wrong with Elmore Leonard.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 01:26 PM) Because that '02 team was $3.5M away from a title? Ah I get it now. As long as you're not considered a contender for a WS for that particular season then it doesn't matter if you make terrible trades that can impact subsequent seasons.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 01:07 PM) We gave up cheap crap to get expensive crap. fixed

Worse than the Todd Ritchie deal?

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 09:00 AM) OMG THAT IS NOT A ZIPPER!!!!!! No. I wouldn't do that to you. I'll be "tucking".

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 08:58 AM) The Google has added bike paths to Google Maps. Saw that yesterday. Very cool.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 08:50 AM) Well I must say I am not excited about the prospect of you painting your legs to look like a pair of jeans. Marisa Miller, you are not I've been doing the P90x leg routine. You'll be pleasantly surprised.

Even though I haven't followed ST too closely I must say I'm extremely excited and optimistic for the season. Even the DH situation isn't worrying me anymore.

QUOTE (AssHatSoxFan @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 08:08 AM) I thought I heard somewhere it was a Sawyer episode but who knows at this point In the preview for next week there seemed to be a couple Sawyer shots in the clip.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 08:04 AM) No doubt there'll be plenty of Hurt Locker vs. Green Zone comparisons I'm guessing. If it's anything like one of the Bourne movies than I'd doubt that. Hurt Locker was not like any of those.

QUOTE (bmags @ Mar 11, 2010 -> 08:31 AM) Well, at the very least, I learned that smoak's name is pronounced smoke, and not smoAK. SO thanks, knackattack. Which makes him infinitely cooler now.

I'm assuming peekaboo-ologist Glenn Beck will look out the window today and change his mind on "global warming".

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Mar 10, 2010 -> 03:44 PM) He'll probably still get some occasional at bats, especially late in ST when the roster decisions are made. Huh? He is one of 3 players reassigned. He gets to stick around ST while reassigned?

QUOTE (chisoxfan09 @ Mar 10, 2010 -> 03:41 PM) Is Mitchell starting again this week? In any split squad games? Was sent down already.

QUOTE (Soxy @ Mar 10, 2010 -> 03:34 PM) Me too. No matter how painful. Last Year at the Marienbad nearly killed me. Literally. I hope you were reading the other thread with the dead celebs.
