QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 02:46 PM) Not you, too! I'm not coming anywhere near this place in games that Humber starts. Heed my warning: it won't be a pretty site. He got DFA'd twice in like 20 minutes. When the Royals release you, that's all that needs to be said. If he fails, you will be thrilled to gloat.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 12:57 PM) I didnt miss anything, it was a horrible argument and I wanted to show you that I could make an equally horrible argument about spending using pick and choose numbers. Because that is what they said they will do. Now, I do not know what will happen. There is always the chance that whoever comes next could be worse. But Ill take saving people today, over maybe killing people in the future any day of the week. Gaddafi was going to massacre people (imo), that needed to be stopped. In Vietnam we took the side of the current govt. And as Balta mentioned arguably we are taking the side on most Saudi things (Bahrain). But I hope that we change, I hope that we take the side of Yemen and Bahrain if those people are seeking freedom and equality. Freedom shouldnt be only for the rich and powerful to enjoy. Unfortunately we are limited in what we can do. But just because we cant save everyone, doesnt mean we should save no one. Columbia and Mexico would also be two places we backed governments.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 11:31 AM) Especially if Humber is taking a spot start or two, you have to go with 12 pitchers in case he implodes. I'd say it becomes Marquez or Infante. Infante has gotten outs in the bigs but has been crappy this ST, Marquez has been better this ST. It depends on how the rest of the pen ends up. I would imagine they would want a legit long man in there, so it could very well be Marquez.

That is how they make people pay taxes on vehicles.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 09:01 AM) LOL, well then you will hate season 5 So in other words my big fear that it was a dream or something are true?

That game was the Joe Crede homer game, before Joe Crede came along.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 09:04 AM) Bought a new cap for the start of the new season. That was always my tradition. Go to the ballpark opening day and buy a new hat for the new season.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 08:09 AM) The director of officiating they had on TV said that a point of emphasis this year was to call the whole game by the same rules, no matter what the situation or time of the game. If it's a foul, then it's a foul no matter what. That is just dumb if you ask me.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 08:16 AM) And yet, you ought to know economics well enough to know the effect of narrowing the field down to 2 companies winds up being the exact opposite. It is still more competition than 1.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 08:13 AM) 2 companies with the same products really isn't competition. Technically that is the actual definition of competition.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 08:13 AM) How much weight did you have to gain to pull off that disguise? I brought a crowbar.

I know we are way past this in reality, but I just finished the DVDs, but the end of season 4 in Dexter was well done. I keep having a problem with how realistic is that no one gets to him, so it was nice to see it finally happen.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 08:01 AM) I thought you went to a tea party gathering or two? I was even at a union rally in the last month.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 08:08 AM) Santos and Humber are guaranteed jobs at this point. Lillibridge has an outside shot, but is likely to lose out to Milledge, so they will probably try to put him through waivers and send him to Charlotte. Marquez now may start the season with the team, and then get waived to go to Charlotte as well, and he will probably pass through just fine. Has Marquez been stretched out, or just short stints?

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Mar 20, 2011 -> 08:40 PM) So here's an interesting subplot, the Knicks lose again today to Milwaulkee. If that team doesn't get out of the 1st round of the East (not looking likely), is Mike D'Antoni's job in question here? It shouldn't be because he has two superstars and a cast from the local YMCA.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Mar 20, 2011 -> 10:36 PM) Hopefully Sharp's injury isn't too serious. Never like knee to knee hits. That is HUGE right now. If he is out an extended period of time, this team is done.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 07:39 AM) The bar owners in Lubbock are celebrating! His exchanges with Pitino were absolutely legendary. He killed me when he said that there was no way FSU would beat ND.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 07:47 AM) Its generally a good idea in any foreign country, to avoid the mobs. Avoid any sort of civil conflict situations. I ended up accidentally being in the middle of the Indian equivalent of a flash mob once - apparently a construction worker was killed (not unusual, safety there for such things is a joke), and so all the other workers decided to take to the street and stop traffic, and pile up bricks and rocks everywhere, yelling and screaming. I made a quick exit from the area. to be fair, I am doing the same thing here in the United States as well!

QUOTE (since56 @ Mar 20, 2011 -> 10:26 PM) I wish you wouldn't have said that.......I'm sick of Peavy. Maybe I should have put it in the predictions thread.

Sergio Santos spends time at Closer this year Phil Humber wins multiple games for the Sox in 2011 Paul Konerko hits half as many homers as 2010 Greg Walker finally gets fired

Just going with the AL here. Boston 103-59 New York 91-71 Tampa 86-76 Toronto 73-89 Baltimore 64-98 Minnesota 93-69 Chicago 90-72 Detroit 80-82 Kansas City 66-96 Cleveland 65-97 Anaheim 94-68 Oakland 86-76 Texas 82-80 Seattle 69-93 Boston over Minnesota Anaheim over Yankees Boston over Anaheim

I wouldn't count on him to add speed with the White Sox. That is the opposite of Sox philosophy. They sacrifice speed for control and repeatability. Adding the cutter is the other thing going on here.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 21, 2011 -> 07:15 AM) Hopefully Peavy's rotator cuff tendonitis is all that his discomfort really is. I remember Rick Sutcliffe once saying when the medical staff is uncertain of exactly what is causing your pain, you have tendonitis. I just hope its nothing that could be far more serious. That was also 25 years ago. Medicine has changed a lot since Rick pitched.
