Capn12

Ya another fella posted this too, so merging these in ATH forum.

Gah, was actually considering driving up from South Carolina to attend this until I saw the date... same night as the Weezer/Foo Fighters concert in Atlanta

The LAST thing I wanna be classified as, is a Cubbie fanboi....calm down, breathe, lets win this weekend series against the Spankmees and go from there.

My South Carolina boys get to officially start this 2005 college football season off 2 weeks from today!! . Let the Steve Spurrier era begin.

Just remember....it could be worse! I'm not sweating....yet. But I am getting a bit worried. Sadly right now I have the most confidence in Garland of our starting pitchers.

How the hell you guys find the most obscure threads from 4 months ago and bring them back to life amazes me sometimes.

Sry, I got carried away but I like posting these old ones. OK I think I'm done now

More Capn12 goodness: Old Avatar And this one is....well it speaks for itself: Sig I loved, so simple:

Lets see, Ive had a few I enjoyed, so I'll share em all!! Stop! Billy Time! I used to love saying that in gamethreads....until I saw him pitch.

Hehe, i can only laugh Benchwarmerjim. Nice work OK then Hermy, guess its time for you to get a Win instead of a Save.

QUOTE(daa84 @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 09:43 PM) behind whoever in FLA is number 3, hes the best number 3 pitcher in the bigs imo Could be. Thing is, he wasn't brought here to be a #3. If Garland doesn't have a breakout year, Garcia is looked upon to be the guy right behind Buehrle. Problem is, you know what Garcia is gonna do just about every outing.....stuggle in the first inning, giving up 1-4 runs, then shutting the opposition down but still giving up a few too many hits, then running into another inning that leaves him on teh hook. His WHIP has absolutely sucked since the ASB

Thats the thing with Garcia...I just dont see the #1/2 type starter in him that most claim he is...just looks kinda bleh to me everytime I see him.

QUOTE(Gene Honda Civic @ Aug 16, 2005 -> 07:54 PM) Tino is acceptable, he has 17 homeruns, and plays good defense.

Reign it in folks. Keep the topic...well, ON TOPIC.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 12, 2005 -> 07:28 AM) The real question is who is reponsible for the deferred money. As the other deal was worked, KGJ's annual salary was doable for the Sox. Yep, thats the 1 area I really want to see a definitive answer on, because there is a backlog of cash owed to Griffey, and I've heard very little about that part of the situation.

I think people need to realize how this will impact the Sox not only for the rest of 2005, but the length of the contract. I'm not saying I'm against the move at all, but financially, the Griffey deal is a trainwreck.

We're gettin kept at bay by Aaron Small...

And just when you think Uribe can't be any worse at the plate....

QUOTE(YASNY @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 03:13 AM) That sounds like Giambi's at bat. Lately that sounds like every at bat for a lefty against Marte.

One thing about the Expos old logo that alot didn't ever notice...its an M, E, and B.. 'M'ontreal 'E'xpos 'B'aseball

QUOTE(YASNY @ Jul 26, 2005 -> 05:53 AM) Sorry. It's from John Travolta as Vinnie Barbarino in the old sitcom Welcome Back Kotter. It was a running gag on the show. Up yo' nose, with a rubba hose!!

Steff is right. Nevins family all are in San Diego, and its nice to see someone who makes his family the deciding factor in where he plays.

IMO Alex Smith will NEVER live up to that salary....he should call Urban Meyer every week to thank Meyer for making him all that cash. Smith to me seems like a slightly above average heady QB, thats about it.

Go to Tools, Internet Options, then under the Content tab... hit the Auto-Complete tab and set it as you want it.

For those of you calling for Burnett to be traded to the Sox, answer 1 question for me please, and no I am not bashing in any way. Exactly what hole does Burnett fill for us? Why do we need another starter for 2+ months of the season, at the cost of Marte/BMac and Contreras? Burnett, from what I read, isn't gonna resign with us long-term. As I recall, it isn't our pitching that is losing many games for us. Its teh inept offense in critical scoring chances. This team is 27th in OBP....TWENTY-SEVENTH!! I don't care if Roger Clemens is out there 5 days a week for us, when you don't score for him, it doesn't matter. I'd be much more focused on getting someone like Vizquel over here, even with his contract status, then I would another arm that won't help us post-2005. Just my opinion though, what do I know
