  1. The questions must be good. I nailed all the 2 pointers and nothing else. Can we count top 3 finishes? I can't seem to get over the hump.
  2. Not like the aquired a Met or Ranger
  3. I'm tired of potential. I'd rather have a guy that will produce in the mlb than someone who may produce. With free agency and all the bulls*** getting three to five season's in the ml from a guy is pretty good. Why waste time on a A or AA or AAA when you can make a move to help a team trying to win now. We have a draft every year and a few guys are going to turn heads in A, a couple in AA and a couple in AAA, maybe one or two will play for the ml club. After 30+ years of watching this, especially after free agency, develop your minor league talent enough to trade for a current producer.
  4. Let's see 4th of July I have to go with an American born player, I'm taking the Jefferson City Mo. native, the 6'2" 195 pound righthand hitting 3rd baseman Joseph Crede Seems like he plays better in the sunshine. Not that I have anything against Panama, Puerto Rico, Venezuala, etc.
  5. damn I wish we either had spell check or I slowed down when I type. Sorry for the spelling errors.
  6. We're still haven't demonstrated the ablility to close. Seems we are still letting teams back into games in the 7-8-9 innings. I believe Koch will continue to improve and I like Flash but they have also proved to be Botch and Flush at times. Who to trade? Do we have an extra right hand hitting outfielder or 1st baseman that could be part of a major trade? I don't believe we can move anyone else from our farm system without touching a top prospect to get anyone who could help this team. If we move someone from our mlb roster I would hope we get a solid star in the middle, not end, of their career. The big question in my mind is JR and company also willing to open the checkbook this month if things are looking really good. For example if we are in 1st by July 28 do we go shopping with cash, not just prospects? I think we reached just high enough to grab guys who are upgrades without giving away the farm. The nest move could be the biggest gamble of all.
  7. LOL Man if those two want to dance and it will help, I'll play the tune. Think they know Acky Breaky Heart?
  8. In the playoffs do you want complete games, or 'W's? We can win without the Colon we have right now. Right, what I really want to do in the playoffs is hand the ball over to Koch. Should this be in green?
  9. http://www.sportingnews.com/voices/ken_ros...l/20030701.html f*** this: "Sorry, I can't start Loaiza in a game of this significance. I want Mulder, a lefthander, facing Barry Bonds in the first inning, Martinez available for the biggest out in the middle innings and relievers who are equally effective against lefties and righties to neutralize matchup advantages." and after leaving Frank off his all-star roster really f*** him for this quote: "Squeezing Sosa onto the roster -- a must with his bat starting to revive and the game being played in Chicago -- forces me to remove Andruw Jones. " Does he know were playing on the south side!
  10. I'll admit it, Frank's shot brought tears to my eyes. I'm almost ready to take down my JM blunder count. I was almost ready to add to it with PK batting with 2 outs but damn that worked out well!
  11. Excellent post. I'm being reminded that the games are played on grass not paper.
  12. I'm hoping that someone will cancel at the last moment and they usually look for a local guy. Perhaps Frank is selected and then Maggs or Everett may have a chance.
  13. Keep the priorities straight Have a great weekend Celebrate Thank everybody in Dallas

    Hey! No Iowa bashing or I'll come down to Texas and kick your scrawny ass! Actually I have relatives in DesMoines and a very good friend in Ducorah. Nice state and what can I say home to a Cub farm team. Of course Iowa really puts the farm in farm team.
  16. Why do you think they went with the PTBNL? Did the Sox want him so bad right now or did Texas want him out right now or is it some sort of two tiered deal if he does this we get that or if he does this we get that? I'm guessing Kenny or generically the Sox wanted both trades completed the same day and didn't have enough time to get both trades fully done.
  17. 25,493 Who knows, if we get another 30,000 maybe the media will notice there's mlb in town.
  18. I just noticed I went over 1,000. Sorry, I'll shut up now.

    Professional Resume

    That sounds a little dirty
  20. Does the team really need old vets? Scotty can talk about how to not play with a headache and how to refuse to play if your number isn't called. Scotty and Horace should be looking at contenders to fill out their time. No need for them to lose 50 games at the end of their career. I was never impressed enough with their work ethic. Well maybe Horace was good. I like the guys, just don't think they fit the 2004 Bulls.
  21. I would say no because both are short term players. Keep the youth movement going.

    Professional Resume

    The one page rule works if your applying for a lower level position. Two pages will not be the kiss of death. Don't not put something on teh resume because you will go to page two. Consider going to a temp agency that also does executive recruitment and let them know you would like to temp (even if you don't want to). they have excellent resume resources. And if you are using Microsoft Office log onto the office site, they have some good templates that people have uploaded.
  23. LMAO How about the zit faced 13 year old squeeking beer here! and laughing when MY vendor is slowed down from his sworn duty to get ME a beer. Little brats. Cute women who don't find me charming, cute, and funny while drunk. TVWDCA (the vendors we don't care about) who can't look at the field and realize they are just pissing people off by standing in the aisle with their f***ing cotton candy when bases are loaded with 2 outs. And all you major leaguers out there will be glad you don't have to live with the #1 annoying promo. After every foul ball we hear "That's another G&S glass F-O-U-L BALL! and then the sound of glass breaking. Every f***ing foul ball at every game. No let up. How many foul balls are hit a game 30? 40? plus we play 50 home games. I will never never ever use G&S Glass.
