Another dud from Marquez tonight.
2 IP, 9 H, 7 ER, 1 BB, 2 K's ERA up to 10.35 WHIP is a pathetic 2.10
Jhonny is pitching well after him however.
Don't forget about how much ass Wilson Betemit is kicking.
I was at 2 of these.
3. Dye 300 / Konerko 300
2. Beckham's walk-off vs. the Cubs- I was at this one... the game was back and forth all day and it was great to see our top spect come through.
1. Konerko's 3-homer game - not only was I there, but it felt so good for Pauly to get a night like that.
From Havlat's Twitter... easy big guy.
He's still pissed. I don't know if there's any truth to this stuff, but what is going on in the front office? I'm thinking the Hawks just wanted the old regime out and some folks got upset about that.
He finally made up for disappointing countless South Side fans by punching out his neighbor, something he failed to do with regular consistency to opposing hitters.

I have to say it is very odd to let him do all of the negotiating with FA's like Hossa Kopecky and Madden, only to fire him a week or so later.
They didn't plan on firing him until he screwed up the mailings.

I can't be the only one who didn't know who the f*** Shawn Johnson was before opening this thread?

I'm there with ya.
But I'm happy to have seen her now.
Crawl out of your hole and watch the damn Olympics!
QUOTE (SHIPPS @ Jul 14, 2009 -> 08:12 AM)
Was it because he f***ed up the paperwork on the new contracts?
Of course. That combined with the botched FA signings of Khabibulin, Huet, and Campbell and the writing was on the wall. I'm elated... he was in over his head. He's a f***ing color commentator, not a GM of a team that has Stanley Cup aspirations.
The Bowman takeover continues.
These COULD be combined in the NHL thread.

I didn't think about Versteeg. He would fall into the category of "potential top liner." It seems so weird they messed up with him.
Ugh, they messed up with 25% of the roster. I was hoping the news was about DT's canning!

If Cutler goes down for a long period of time, I'd rather see what Caleb Hanie could do rather than some washed up, over the hill vet who has no business being on the football field. Notable example: John Kitna being the backup in Dallas this upcoming year.
That's nuts. The Bears have legitimate Super Bowl aspirations this year. They shouldn't hedge that bet on Caleb Hanie.
Did Jeff Garcia sign with the Raiders yet?
QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 10:09 PM)
Vertseeg could potentially be one of those players too, if there is any substance to this.
I was just going to post this. They are moving Versteeg, especially after having to give him the $$ prematurely.

I can't imagine being a much lower life form than this...
Of course you can. Think "pedophile" or "rapist" or "murderer" or "Glenn Beck".
QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jul 13, 2009 -> 06:11 AM)
No offense, but I don't give a flying f*** about who the Twins induct into their little personal HOF. Why would anybody?
I was just going to post this.

I hardly think it would fulfill the life's dream of some people,maybe some 12 year old girls somewhereHe was probably referring to the players.

Entourage was pretty good this week. Boys on top and E trying to get Sloan back. Vinny buying his license was great.
Yeah, it was decent. I prefered the Ari/Lloyd moments more than the rest. E is such a turd.
