Line drive hitter. He makes my heart flutter.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 07:23 PM) This umpire seems to not be calling some pretty obvious strikes. He's definitely not giving anything at or above the belt.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 07:13 PM) You got your emotions in check tonight, as I know you hate playing in Minnesota? Ya. I have a good feeling about this series. That could all change in the late innings however.

RF hit for JD...

Gomez got nailed in the face lol.

QUOTE (greasywheels121 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 06:44 PM) Seafood/Fish has become my favorite dish. Any preferred fish? I love trout, catfish, halibut, and cod.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 06:50 PM) Well Fields would then become a rental to twins because of the changing of ballparks next year. So they might want someone else Bartolo Colon could fill Slowey's spot perhaps. We'd probably need Span back in that deal.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 06:34 PM) So.. Are you trying to say that Josh Fields likes the Metro-dome? Mauer for Fields and Flowers? What?

QUOTE (The Ginger Kid @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 02:55 PM) someone somewhere should get a drinking game going with references to "Yaz" and/or "Catfish" How about every Hawkism + every mention of Yaz, Catfish, or random old-timer MLB player no one has ever heard of that was the best at something random regarding baseball?

Pinnage. We're smashing these turdbags.

Tofu is not meat. As for this poll, I have no favorites. I like beef, pork, chicken, fish, venison, turkey, and pheasant.

This thread is way too preachy.

QUOTE (ChiSox_Sonix @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 10:11 AM) What an incredibly ignorant statement. Good point.

Haren/Buehrle/Floyd/Danks in the playoffs = sexy.

I honestly have no clue. I can almost guarantee he'll make a trade, but for who or dealing who, I have no idea.

FWIW, I was being totally facetious with the Wise picture. I was all for keeping BA and getting rid of Wise, but whatever. They both suck. And Wise hasn't cost us yet. He's done everything that you can ask for from a 4th OF. Good D as a late-inning replacement and giving some guys a rest with a spot-start.

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 27, 2009 -> 12:40 AM) It's rare enough to see the national team play that I'm always going to try to watch as long as they aren't playing Grenada or the like. However, I'll speak for myself in saying I watched with interest, but I was far from pumped up. MLS sucks and this team had a lot of those guys and few younger prospects. Wait, so you wouldn't watch the US National Team play if they were playing Grenada or am I reading that wrong?

QUOTE (lostfan @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 11:59 PM) Brought to you by the same team that insists on having a certain outfielder who shall remain nameless. This guy?

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 11:44 PM) Depends on your definition of a lot of people. You need to buy the sports package just to get in on Comcast. That's going to eliminate an overwhelming majority of people. Yes I know it was on Telemundo and Univision, but if you were willing to watch in Spanish without speaking Spanish I don't think you are the type of fan that is going to classify the country as 'pumped' by watching. To say everyone was pumped is reaching. All this coming from the guy who said the US shouldn't play or talk about soccer and they are the only country to not care about it, but everyone was pumped. Those 2 things don't match. I thought it was fairly clear that "everyone" meant the people who give a s*** about soccer.

QUOTE (BigSqwert @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 10:08 PM) You really think humans have sharp, pointy teeth like a wolf, lion, or other predators? Perhaps you can demonstrate for me how a human can run down a deer or other prey and sink your sharp, pointy teeth into their hide like other predators do. :blink:

QUOTE (danman31 @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 11:02 PM) It wasn't on English TV other than FSC, which very few get. I don't think people were pumped for it. Maybe a little for this match, but not the whole tournament. I'm fairy sure a lot of people get FSC. And certainly everyone in Chicago gets Telemundo.

What a dumb article.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Jul 26, 2009 -> 09:04 PM) All throughout the tournament? Go back and read the last 4-5 pages and point out where everyone is saying how great the US has looked and "yadda yadda". Outside of the first game where myself and a couple of others said we looked nice then there isnt anything like that at all. That was 5 games ago. No reason to make s*** up. I wasn't referring to just this message board. It seems to be the consensus amongst a lot of "fans" I know. Even in A-team national play, it seems like everyone gets fired up when they beat Bermuda and Nicaragua, etc. There's a reason why the US is relatively high in FIFA rankings. The CONCACAF sucks. Where would they ranked if they were in the UEFA? The US is the only country from CONCACAF in the top 30. You're kidding yourself if you don't think everyone was pumped for this tournament and for this match specifically.
