103 mph screwball Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I believe Beckham's "head problem" is now in Florida. I expect him to thrive next year. Just a hunch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cali Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I figured out what I'm gonna do next season as to whether or not I get the baseball package (assuming they don't go full rebuild, in which case I'll get it for sure). I'm gonna wait out April. The last two seasons combined in April they are playing 13 games below .500. In May-Sept/Oct: 23 games over .500.

Cali Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I'm talking about MLB.TV specifically since it's cheaper and gives me access to games on my phone and computer as well as through Apple TV onto my flatscreen. Â But, I'm not well off at all money wise so if I can save $25 a month by not watching a horrible baseball team (even if that team is my favorite) I'm gonna do it. In the end it's just sports, it's not that important to me as, say, paying my bills haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Â Not a good idea, but instead of doing a copy/paste of the material, a summation in your own words based on your own comprehension of it breaks no rules. Â It's no different than you watching a PPV event and describing/commenting on what you saw. It's not a per se re-transmit.

Fantl916 Posted December 16, 2011 Share Posted December 16, 2011 http://insider.espn.go.com/blog/the-gms-of...entin-and-danks  ESPN has an article up with Bowden chucking out 5 trades involving Sox players. Let me say I hate all 5 of them...  1. Danks to the Nationals for Brad Peacock and Destin Hood. barf. hood is whatever and peacock would get rocked in the AL or end up as a reliever... gross  2. Beckham to the Giants for Surkamp, Heath Hembree, Ehire Adrianza barf. a borderline #5 starter, middle relief prospect, and middle infield prospect with no bat... gross  3. Quentin to the Braves for Kris Medlan and JJ Hoover. barf. a 2nd division starting pitcher and middle relief prospect.... gross  4. Floyd to the Pirates for Starling Marte and Daniel Moskos super barf. this is the worst of them all. both marte and moskos are garbage, neither will be even decent major league contributors  5. AJP to the Rays for Jacob Thompson whatevs. ajp who cares, lance broadway 2.0 is fine...  if this is how SOx prospects are viewed outside our bubble then we're in for some serious disappointment...

I prefer to give him 1 more year, but if I had to trade him, that's not a bad package anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
