Noooooooooooo! Don't give in. Don't let me down.

You got a free month?

I'm still on the fence about this whole thing, but I do wish him well. He was a damn fine player and a pretty good Manager as well.

Being duct taped and locked in a trunk...boy does that bring back memories.

Imagine the smell. Sorry.

It really pisses me off when I was fighting sleep into the top of the 8th and Alomar hits into a DP so I go to bed thinking it's over - Only to wake up this morning and hear that we scored 4 runs in the 9th. Allright! - But wait a minute - they scored 4 in the bottom of the 8th! f***!

I also noticed he was inconsistent all night. I hate that worse than a bad ump.

Like a sprinkle in a drought. Hey, I'm trying here.

Houston and St. Louis won. How's that? :fthecubs

Is that in the rule book?

I can't agree more. I understand where everyone is coming from - keeping the oposition off balance - but really, if he does his job and hits his spots and doesn't get rattled, he'll be OK.

So much for 7-0.

Oh great. Another one.

I hear ya, man.

He makes a great arguement and I'm with him. There are ties. It happens, but as far as the rules and a call goes there is no such thing.

Koch, am I right?

You know what. I think I understand what he's saying now. He's saying that the ball either beats him or it doesn't. A tie does not beat the runner, so, the runner "beat" the throw and is therefore safe.

Are you saying it's impossible for them both to get there at the same time?

I have absolutely no idea who you could be talking about!

I guess I just have extreme southwest Michigan covered :dips*** He nailed you! Michigander, my ass!

Yeah, I noticed. Iwas gone Thur - Sun, so I thought I missed the reason. Thanks.

I think it isn't so much a "lucky hit" as it is lucky that the defense was out of position, the pitcher missed his spot, the second baseman was on the move because of the runner going, etc. But, the batter, like you said, still has to get the ball in play and do his job. I hear you point and I like it.

That's why I came over here as well.

They sure are some strange cultures, you got that right.
