  1. Excuse me but I guess everyone is happy with our steller bullpen I'm not. We need a player who's batting .300+ along with Maggs near the top of the lineup and a closer. I'm not 100% convinced on Flash and Marte.
  2. That was the guy in the turban at White Hen. Wrong kind of manager.
  3. He'd still be better than DJ Radio would have to play a warning Listening to this may impare your ability to operate heavy equipment. Do not drive while listening to this broadcast. I do feel sad for him. He seems like such a good decent man. I'm certain he'll land somewhere and do a great job in baseball. I believe he's going to be a solid NL Manager.
  4. three or four months ago it would have been covered for sure. Now it's only interesting because finally he can finish first, as in the first manager to be fired.
  5. How about the broadcast booth Now with runners on first and seco zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz
  6. If he's not injured he's career is on a death watch. Without an organic, structural reason for his loss of velocity and resulting inability to get anyone out, he's in trouble.
  7. Interesting thought. I think it also comes down to confidence on both sides. Pitchers ahve to know we suck the first time we see someone so they get pumped a little bit more and vice cersa.
  8. That was almost exactly version 3 or 4 of mine. C Johnny Bench 1B Ernie Banks 2B Pete Rose SS Alex Rodriguez 3B Mike Schmit LF Barry Bonds CF Ken Griffey Jr? I keep thinking I must have seen better RF Hank Aaron DH Frank Thomas RHP Nolan Ryan Tom Seaver warrants a mention LHP Steve Carlton I don't know if I saw him in person. Closer Dennis Eckersley
  9. Any news on who's going under the knife? Koch? Konerko?
  10. Maybe they'll announce he's staying another season then fire him in two weeks when Torre is available. Oops, the Lions patented that one.
  11. Excellent idea. How about starting one now with the opening day lineups. Have it close in a couple weeks.
  12. $15 to park on broken glass At least the attendants will watch your car. The first year I had Bulls season tickets I started laughing realizing my car's "ticket" to the lot cost more than my ticket to the game you can always take public transportation

    Ruminations

    I had to pass this along. It's sad when you're at a baseball game and realize that you'll never have the money, status or talent that the guys on the field take for granted. And it gets even worse when the grounds crew gives way to the players. (Anthony Myers) Stolen from http://www.ruminate.com/html/clubrum.shtml And a non baseball bonus I took up jogging to experience the "runner's high" everyone talks about, but I found it somehow lacks the intensity of sitting on my couch and smoking crack. (Ken Peterson)
  14. My PTC is Maggs and I'm guessing the starting pitcher is E-Lo
  15. How about limiting to players we've seen in person? Damn, I started a list twelve times and gave up.
  16. You know I am a bit sad about JM leaving. It is the players on the field but he was given a team with the talent to win, then we went out and got help in a few key areas. I hope to see him in Philly next season. I think he'll do verywell in the NL. I also think if we had Dusty and the Cubs had Jerry we would be playing and the Cubs would be sitting.
  17. Another plus for E-Lo, He doesn't duck out of tough games with imaginary ailments
  18. ALDS Red Sox 3-2 Yankees 3-1 NLDS Cubs 3-2 Giants 3-1 ALCS Red Sox 4-2 NLCS Cubs 4-3 World Series Red Sox 4-3 Then the world ends
  19. The only blemish was a couple loses when we really, really, really needed wins. What an awesome season for him.
  20. No No No we need to save him I was a big Larussa fan but his best years are behind him. We would have him before he was great and after he was great. Is Lee Elia available? We need to wait until the firing season is over and decide then. You never know who will be available. How about Frank as a player-Manager

  22. My first is now a freshman and it's homecoming time. The big "burning of the M", parade, pep rally etc. was tonight. McAllen is a small city of 100,000 + and half the town was there. I'm feeling very old when I See son hanging around girls, ditching dad. Realize I didn't once think "How am I going to sneak some beer in here" I can't tell Freshman from Seniors, they all look too young. Senior float had a all senior band absolutley rockin
