QUOTE(mreye @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:24 AM) Why do you think? It's not that difficult. How would I know? Honestly, I wouldnt have asked if I didnt know why you guys were freaking out about this.. that is why I asked

QUOTE(Jabroni @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 12:03 AM) Your chances have increased just by the mere fact that we have not had a sweep in 4 straight series. Sooner or later, it will HAVE to happen. I can guarantee you that we will sweep this series if we win today... Garland goes tomorrow and theres no way he loses, hes the man to end the streak

QUOTE(mreye @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:48 AM) What is your problem? Go away! NO! I asked a serious question and no one answered it, I still want to know why this is such a big deal to you guys

QUOTE(flippedoutpunk @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:14 AM) i hate when my wussy side comes out :headshake eeesh... me too :puke

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:12 AM) I'm sure you can.. and it wasn't a shot. But in all honesty you piss off the wrong person (and not specifically you - just anyone) and many times it usually ends up with someone bleeding. Oh I know what you mean, I just dont get how someone would be dumb enough to get themselves put into jail because someone threw a HR ball back onto the field..

QUOTE(flippedoutpunk @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:10 AM) Hell yeah! I ran into some girls at the park and i had them sit with me in my section, i coulda introduced u to some.. you coulda been married by now sheez hahaha, I promise I will make it next time..

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:10 AM) Whatever dude. If you want to act like a moronic Cub fan at the Cell, feel free. Just don't say you weren't warned. Yeah, you warned me and everyone else has said the same crap.. I dont care, I will throw it back... if you catch a HR ball keep it, but thats you not me

QUOTE(Steff @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:09 AM) Unfortunately.. people have been assulted for less there. Either way, I can take care of myself.. so if some fat drunken slob wants to tango with a fit, youthful, strapping young man... go nuts

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:07 AM) Just saying ... if you bring that crap to the cell, be careful. If I go to the Cell I am brining flippedoutpunk with me and he would never let anything happen to me, so no worries here

QUOTE(flippedoutpunk @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:06 AM) You know your scared of getting ejected and missing out on the 6 dollar cans of beer Unless I am there after August 14th the price of beer doesnt matter cuz I wouldnt be able to buy it anyways..

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:05 AM) No. Not of getting ejected. Of getting your ass stomped for making Sox fans look like dorks. Pretty sure that wont happen, and if it does someone has some problems if they are going to turn throwing a HR ball back into Assault..

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:03 AM) As long as you stay in Houston, all is cool. You pull that crap at US Cellular, you are taking a very big risk. Of what? Getting ejected?? ohhh nooooo...

QUOTE(sec159row2 @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 11:01 AM) i HAVE TO APOLOGIZE... I shouldn't have resorted to name calling... dont worry about it man, you called me a dork.. my little sister calls me that, it doesnt bother me

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:55 AM) Now I understand, thank you. also, never seen anyone get ejected for that, and it happens down here too..

QUOTE(JimH @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:53 AM) What's the point, why throw it back? I saw a teenager throw a ball back from the bleachers and get escorted out. The moron was arguing with secutity and the security guard said "you're not supposed to throw anything on the field." That teenager didn't think he was quite so cool when he was being ejected. I wouldnt care about being ejected, you can by 1$ with a coke bottle and sit wherever you want at Minute Maid Park so its all good

QUOTE(sec159row2 @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:48 AM) does that change the outcome... dork... I dont care what it changes, if I catch it... its mine.. I can do what I want with it, and throw it back I shall

QUOTE(quickman @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:46 AM) Because you being the ripe old age of 21 know what kids want. They would never want a ball hit by an opposing team. Not a 5 year old. Thats a bad ball. Its cursed, and its really neat to throw it back, look everyone I am really cool cause I threw it back rather than give it to a kid who might really like it. you damn straight As a matter of fact, when I was that young I wouldnt have wanted a HR ball from the opposing team.. So yeah.. I would imagine I know..

QUOTE(RibbieRubarb @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:43 AM) It is Rattzinger! Isnt that the guy from Cheers!?

QUOTE(mreye @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:36 AM) Then why post here? :headshake Because I wanted to know why everyone cares so much? That is what I asked, isnt it

QUOTE(southsider17 @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:39 AM) Please. :headshake Give it to a kid and make his day. No way, If I caught a HR ball from our team.. then Ide give it to a kid... but from the other team, pffft, f*** that that ball is headed back to where it came

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:39 AM) Go to Wrigley then. Nah, if I was at the Cell and I caught a HR ball from the other team ide launch that b**** right back onto the field

QUOTE(YASNY @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 10:37 AM) That's a moronic Cub fan type thing to do. No its not, its awesome..

QUOTE(Wong & Owens @ Apr 19, 2005 -> 08:05 AM) Finally, the unacceptable practice of throwing the opposing team's home run balls back. Undoubtably started by one of the CUBS SUCK chanting cheeba monkeys, this is a WRIGLEY FIELD TRADITION, so if you really consider yourself a Sox fan, keep the ball if you're lucky to grab one. Or, give it to the nearest youngster-- you'll make his year. Or, take the ball and throw it at the nearest jagoff chanting "Cubs Suck" during the late innings of a tie ballgame between the SOX and OUR biggest rival over the last 3-4 years. Throwing the other teams home run ball back is the greatest thing ever, and I wish more people would do it... thats awesome

Can someone explain why you guys even care about this? I dont get it, who cares

QUOTE(Cerbaho-WG @ Apr 18, 2005 -> 05:07 PM) If he threw 100 as a starter, I honestly expect him to throw something ridiculous like 102 MPH as a closer. As Baseball Prospectus said, it'll be a lot of fun to watch him regardless of the results. Well I just hope we hang onto this guy and he ends up on the big club as either a SP or CL because that would be awesome
