Luckily, George Steinbrenner has since paid $3M for the rights to this kid's story and has made him one of the happiest kids in the country.

This is weird.

 

It lets me watch every major league game but the Sox.

 

 

I can't get it either now....god dammit!

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Aug 10, 2005 -> 02:03 AM)
Yes sir.

 

Warm weather, stretch run, and contract season = big 2nd half statistically. No offensive player has more money to gain with a big finish to the season than PK.

I know you didn't mean anything cruel.  Everyone just needs to take a step back and realize how lucky he was that he didn't die.  If you've ever sat in the front row of an upper deck, it's scary as hell when you look down.  Thankfully, we didn't have a horrible tragedy occur.

Exactly...when you know the outcome of something is ok and all is well, it is ok to laugh and thankfully, yes, the kid is ok. Lighten up people.

I switched it to REAL from Windows media player and it works now.

The kid wasn't the only lucky one. Whoever he fell on would have been in bad shape too.

I have been to the cell several times in the upper deck and I am surprised it hasn't happened there and hasn't happened in baseball more often..

Paul's already made a ton of money, with this first base market and the Mets and Yankees both needing 1st baseman(Giambi's a dh) he'll make some money.

:rolly

What are the odds a story emerges within the next 24 hours on an East-coast-based sports network about a very hospitable reception by Steinbrenner and the Yankees involving a trip the the clubhouse and some autographed baseball bats?

The Sky Dome was the scariest I've ever been to.

Anyways, back to the game at hand, how about PK. He has actually been pretty clutch lately. HUGE homer...

Actually to be honest, I'm surprised it hasn't happened a few more times at Yankee stadium, that UD is so steep it's very easy to trip or fall over up there.

Lighten up? Ok I'll remember that if it happens again and the next time that person is not so lucky.

Most of the upper deck at USCF they would fall to the club level. Would still do a lot of damage.

He's beed good since June 1. This isn't a recent occurance.

Yes, but he has the chance to go from 3/30 to about 4/50 with a good 2nd half. If Sexson can get a lot of money with his serious shoulder injury history, then PK should be in for a big time contract by someone in need of a 1b.

For me it is the new Soldiers' Field. Brian and I went and once we got to our seats he looks at me and says, "I take back anything negative I have ever said about Comiskey's upperdeck." :D

But it's magnified when others around him are struggling.

I was kinda scared of tripping in the third row of the club level.

Let's just hope if he does stay with the Sox he gives us a hometown discount. 3/30 sounds pretty fair to me.

ARow 'bout ripped off Sturze's ass.

POST OF THE MONTH!!!! You offer very little knowledgable value, get off my back and stick to hockey...

 

Anyways, Rowand singles back up the middle almost taking Sturtzes legs off!

How high and where will Credes popup go this time.
