Off season ideas for the contest board
Texsox replied to southsider2k5's topic in Alex’s Olde Tyme Sports Pub
This will be the most impressive Cubs swoon since 1969. They got 1 more win left the Astros win 3 of 4 from the lowly Brew Crew and Sunday evening we're consoling them telling them we know how it hurts :fyou -
Be fair to eBay he didn't go through the eBay system. He used the buyer's greed to take it off eBay.

Have the screen slowly fade to dark, dark, gray then a blazing flash of light then almost as quickly it goes black. Until the WS is over. How about YNOT for the NL Playoffs. I can't stomach the AL Playoffs. How about a Football confidence contest each week. Pick winning and rank them 1-how many games are being played. You get your assigned points for a win. 13 Goal Hockey pool. Pick a team each week you think will win a game in which 13 goals are scored. -
Frank Thomas, the greatest Sox player the second half of the prior century, playing in perhaps his final game in a Chicago White Sox uniform. A walk off home run.

That is funny. I am soooo glad I'm not in Chicago to hear Cub fans right now, and it may only get worse.

Damn, I'm going to miss him

Our 5th Starter spot was the biggest surprise of the year! He's sitting at 19 wins.

I had to go with Billy. Injured or not I remember the feeling in my stomach when I realized he couldn't close a door. If I had to pick one factor it would be losing 8 to the Tigers.
-
All we need is a little help from the Tigers :puke I'm certain the Tigers could win 4 or 5 from the Twins Y'all want to jump on my Astros' Bandwagon?

It's as good a time as any to start throwing stones. I limited this to the full season guys.

I'm thinking of heading to the mountain for a week or so. Last time I did, we rattled off 8 wins and got back into the race. I scheduled myself to be on the ranch tonight moving a cow ot two and making plans for my Scout Troop. I'll get home late and rush to the computer and either cry or cheer. I'm too old for this s***.

The awesome talent and variety is what I love. If I had written down my top 10 favorite Beatle tunes of all time every year for the past 30 years I bet every song would have appeared at least once. ANd no two lists would have been the same. Songs I thought were just album fillers become sentimental favorites at different times in my life. I gave up my radio show in college which was talk/student activities to do a Top 40 which no one wanted. I "re-defined" what I considered Top 40 and instead of Me and You and a Dog Named Boo, I rocked with the Beatles, and other "pop" hits.

I just want to be there, you have to beat everyone sooner or later and I think the road to the WS is going through Oakland this year. Anyone care to take on Foulke in the deciding game?
-
I can't believe how much the frickin worse team in baseball history is going to have in our making the playoffs. I like the matchups against Minny, I like the rotation with E-Lo getting us off and Bart in what will be the biggest game of the series/year to this point. Every scenario has game three as huge 0-2 we really really have to win or it's all over 1-1 we need the edge to be plus or minus 1 1/2 game 2-0 sweep baby and they're riding shotgun, almost in the backseat.

I'm almost ready to put my head in the sand and pull it out on Friday morning. I'm too old for this. I don;t know what it is about this team, this year, that has me more emotionally involved. Perhaps I'm thinking this is the most momentum I can recall a Sox team having going into the last two weeks of the season.
-
Good thing I'm not a math major. Now that I re-looked at the schedule and thought about the alst couple days ME That quote a few weeks back from JM saying that before the season is our Garland will play a major role is coming true.
