Run, run, drink water, then run some more. Stay hydrated and stay active. You wouldn't believe 3 hour baseball practices can do for 8 months and 6 days a week. Oh, and as far as protein...nothing, NOTHING, beats a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Do LB/DE transitions count? Because Derrick Thomas and Terrell Suggs would be high on that list. As would Willie McGinest.

QUOTE(UC76 @ Jun 5, 2006 -> 10:09 PM) Four days till the opener. I'm stiff! Stiff, I tells ya! I'm not expecting the U.S. to advance, so I've adopted Ivory Coast as my backup team. If your going to adopt a cinderella, pick Trinidad & Tobago or Togo. Group C will be tough for CIV. Netherlands, Serbia, and Argentina to go through. It's the "Nightmare Group."

How is this not a hot topic? I just got my Serbia jersey in the mail today...yay!

We won the World Series in 2005. Thats ALWAYS a positive.

I got about 40 in yesterday. I have my votes set to PK, Gooch, JD, Pods, Crede, and Pierzynski.

QUOTE(3E8 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 02:30 AM) If you ever see the Tom Emanski commercial again, look for the scene where all the kids a lined up in a row hitting off tees and swing in unison. The kid at the very back nails the entire tee out of the picture and it's funny as hell. Never noticed that.

AWESOME!

Come on now Paulie! You got a man on...

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 10:10 PM) We get that everything Hawk says is funny to you now. Yeah, I've had a Jabroni-type game tonight.

Hawk is absolutely crazy. I am sold. "PODS! Come awn! Yes!"

HAWK I f***ING HATE YOU.

Hawk said "Uribe" and "good at bat" in the same sentence.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 09:59 PM) Couple of people have. SS2k5 got hawk to mention soxtalk last year. I know about that one.

Has anyone ever sent Hawk and DJ an e-mail and had it read on TV???

QUOTE(Chet @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 09:54 PM) Yep, get em back up on that horse. There is a method to his method. Ozzie is Method Man You beat me to it.

Hawk is philosophizing again. "There is a method to...his method."

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 09:51 PM) Here is a clue to our right handed batters. For the last 4 years, pitchers have been going away away away on you. So dont act shocked when you see 4 pitches on the outside corner, and then allow it to freeze you for a strikeout. It shouldnt be a mystery. To be fair, that was one helluva pitch to JD. Perfect location.

JD missed the cookie of all cookies.

QUOTE(jphat007 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 09:44 PM) I got it, but the last paragraph made zero sense. Well then obviously you didn't get it.

As terrible as Ando and Uribe have been, the bullpen is our main need.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 09:39 PM) Oh, poor Jon. He recovered well from the homer, to have this happen to him. Pods -- bad job. He'll get a lashing from Ozzie in the clubhouse. As far as Nelson goes, I didn't expect him to set the world on fire, and he hasn't disappointed. However, I do like that he looks angry and disappointed in himself but looking to get redemption next time, unlike Politte who throws a s*** inning and looks like he needs to get put to sleep.

Well, Nelson gets some boo-birds coming off.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 2, 2006 -> 09:31 PM) No tivo, and you think acer laptops are good. You are docked 10 points for being behind the times. I said Acer laptops were solid. I do not in fact have an Acer laptop though. I do, in fact, have a moderately new IBM laptop. And Tivo is pointless. Therefore, I get back my 10 points.
