  1. QUOTE (flavum @ May 25, 2012 -> 09:37 PM) I guess Rays/Red Sox got ugly. BJ Upton got into it with a fan. Shocking...
  2. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 25, 2012 -> 09:37 PM) Depends. Is MLB still using the same courier service? Hah...touche
  3. Damn...Braun is going off in the last month...is he still using ped's folks?
  4. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 25, 2012 -> 09:30 PM) Yowza, nice work Hector. That was sweet. You're Goddamned Right It Was!
  5. It's really tough for them right now since with the cost of natural gas coal is no longer a baseload energy source. Now they're panicking as private equity is coming in to switch coal plants over to natural gas plants.
  6. QUOTE (Jose Paniagua @ May 25, 2012 -> 08:04 PM) But isn't the larger fear this: We chase something that won't happen right now, when we likely have a golden opportunity to totally restart an organization that totally got depleted over the last ten years. The extra wild card will make people willing to deal like never before. Which side of that do we want to be on? Unless you really hit big (like Carlos Santana for Casey Blake), what are you really going to do by making such a move?
  7. That's the feathered serpent to you, Hawkeroo
  8. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 25, 2012 -> 07:26 PM) I think that went off the end of te bat too. They look like routine fly balls
  9. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 25, 2012 -> 07:15 PM) The Feathered Serpent needs to get some strikes. He's just setting them up so he can recreate a victory using their blood and the bones from his penis.
  10. QUOTE (fathom @ May 25, 2012 -> 07:18 PM) I am surprised there aren't more fans at the game Haha...I think you say this every home game
  11. QUOTE (He_Gawn @ May 25, 2012 -> 05:07 PM) Was reading Yahoo! Sports front page a little bit ago and noticed a familiar face... Myself. Is it legal to do a story, use my facebook picture, then run it on a huge website? Jeez lol http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/highschool-p...Y3Rpb25z;_ylv=3 Congrats, Tyler!
  12. QUOTE (RockRaines @ May 25, 2012 -> 11:16 AM) I feel bad for folks that dont have this option. Cabs have saved me many times even when I drove somewhere. Its just not worth it to drive. Yeah, when I lived in the City I stumbled home drunk many a time...just the option to walk is by far simple enough for me to eschew the car... It's when you live in the burbs or the rest of your buddies live on the other side of town that this is a pain in the ass...
  13. QUOTE (BigSqwert @ May 25, 2012 -> 04:50 PM) LOL I could care less about watches to be honest. It's the "I don't give two s***s about "X" so nobody else should care about it either" attitude people have about things. If you don't like it fine. I'm sure these same people have things they're really into for no good reason whether it be expensive cars, clothing, or whatever. EDIT: I bet there's people following this "argument" who would only purchase official Sox jerseys for $200 and would laugh at a $50 imitation. Never! oh boy oh boy oh boy Everyone has their particular toys...I don't care much for watches but I do like nice clothes...I feel like a complete schlub if I am not dressed well. Hugo Boss is the man. I am one of those people who would rather haver fewer really nice things than many pieces of s***. I agree with your general point...just because you don't appreciate something doesn't mean others shouldn't or make it silly that they do.
  14. QUOTE (jeffro2525 @ May 25, 2012 -> 05:26 PM) Looks like Hafner to miss the whole series...Not mad about it. Yeah, he was really struggling to run the bases against the Tigers...
  15. Most Mesoamerican beliefs included cycles of suns. Usually, our current time was considered the fifth sun, the previous four having been destroyed by flood, fire and the like. Quetzalcoatl went to Mictlan, the underworld, and created fifth-world mankind from the bones of the previous races (with the help of Cihuacoatl), using his own blood, from a wound he inflicted on his earlobes, calyes, tongue, and penis, to imbue the bones with new life. It is also suggested that he was a son of Xochiquetzal and Mixcoatl.[citation needed] One Aztec story claims that Quetzalcoatl was tricked by Tezcatlipoca into becoming drunk and sleeping with a celibate priestess (in some accounts, his sister Quetzalpetlatl) and then burned himself to death out of remorse. His heart became the morning star (see Tlahuizcalpantecuhtli). Quintana You definitely hit the nail on the head here, Q...this is very similar to the scouting report Kyle gave us earlier...
  16. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 25, 2012 -> 01:55 PM) This + Name starts with Q = His nickname shall be Quetzalcoatl. Ohh I liiiiikkkeee....the feathered serpent!
  17. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ May 25, 2012 -> 11:46 AM) From what I have read he is of dragon and mayan god descent. His fastball has been known to literally start on fire and destroy bats, and his curveball will occasionally turn into green mist that will render a batter unconscious. KW put him on the roster out of pure fear. Hope this helps. Plus slider too.
  18. QUOTE (Y2HH @ May 25, 2012 -> 08:43 AM) Googles P/E ratio at IPO was 67, with a stock price of 85$. STILL vastly lower than these other companies, not to mention Google's projected revenue growth was higher than LinkedIn's/Facebooks by an astounding amount. As I said a few times now...overvalued. Edit: Found a lot of conflicting reports on this. Issue is, Google's avenue of growth was massive in comparison to Facebook's. Facebook already has close to 1 billion users...which is about it, there isn't much room to grow in terms of user base now, aside from account duplicating. Currently, FB values each user at about 4$. They need to find a way to get them valued at over 200$ to seek the growth Google saw... Not happening. The key is though that they already have a huge huge huge captive audience...finding the ways to generate revenue would seem to me to be the much easier part of the equation...I don't know much about the stock market, and I agree that the stock is currently overvalued, but I wouldn't sleep on it too much...if it were to drop into the $20 range I would definitely consider buying a decent chunk...
  19. QUOTE (whitesox901 @ May 24, 2012 -> 10:14 PM) Josh Lewin? He's doing radio games for the Mets, but I'm sure he'd rather have a TV gig. I don't know what happened to him...he was doing the Rangers' games for the last several years with Tom Grieve and I liked them...I wonder if he tried to hold out for more money or something...
  20. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ May 25, 2012 -> 08:30 AM) This game was in loving memory of Ursula. I love it when you analyze.
  21. QUOTE (Quinarvy @ May 24, 2012 -> 09:36 PM) HOME RUNS. Don Cheadle is Captain Planet from Don Cheadle De Aza = Captain Planet Twins = Everyone else. HOME RUNS. KONERKO. VICIEDO. RIOS. AJ. Wood is good!
  22. QUOTE (Brian @ May 24, 2012 -> 06:58 PM) Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and 3rd place. Niiiiice
  23. QUOTE (ScottyDo @ May 24, 2012 -> 10:30 PM) Yet, somehow we have a winning record. Baseball is weird, and I love it But we won't win anything until we turn it around at home...
