  1. It's funny how you and your smartass commentaries seem to vanish whenever Houston takes a fall.
  2. :?: The dude had a bad tools fetish, but he most always kept a balanced club. was bowden behind the team with the "nasty boys"? No, he came into power in '92 and was fired in 2003.
  3. I think that's the first time I've ever seen the words "competent" and "Bowden" in the same sentence. Bowden would still be in Cincinnati if not for the Reds' ignorant owner, Carl Lidner's insistence that Barry Larkin remain a Red back in 2000. That contract and Griffey's implosion destroyed the team. He had at least a plan; the current management has run the franchise into the ground.

  5. The Reds are the worst-run club in the NL. Things were better with Marge - at least they had an owner who wanted to win and a competent GM in Bowden.
  6. It wouldn't help Hendry to tip his hand either way. He's right in going with the 'underpromise and overdeliver' philosophy.
  7. If we're talking about someone Dusty will play over Holly, then yes. I still think Murton should get a shot until he proves he can't handle it, unless of course a monster should come our way (Huff, ManRam). Can't you just see Dusty not playing Huff or someone right away? "We've got to ease the dude in, man. I mean, he doesn't have any experience in our ballpark, and that's big, dude." Dusty started Enrique F. Wilson. Nothing's impossible ...
  8. Stealing bandwidth J.R.? How could you? :lmao: Dude, if I can look through your window and see the family photos for free, why should I have to pay WSI to look at theirs?
  9. Awesome column. Mariotti, IMO, is a tool. He garners zero respect from me (as if THAT really matters). IMO, he has no standing to preach as if he is a Cub fan, because he is not! He doesn't know jack. Whatever. Mariotti is a tool - and I think he hates the Cubs - but he was right on the money with this one.
  10. http://www.whitesoxinteractive.com/vbulletin/images/headers/score.jpg I thought it was funny as hell until I noticed the scoreboard shot. Whoever included that has no concept of human suffering and deserves the same fate someday - seeing the sum of his baseball hopes and dreams flushed in a matter of minutes. There is nothing like that here at NSBB. WSI is as big a bastion of bastards as any other Sox board.
  11. The Braves' Jay Powell apparently broke his arm on a pitch just now ... you could hear the thing snap. :shock:
  12. Good to see him smiling.
  13. First and last times I saw him play.
  14. Darren?
  15. I gave up on this game. That post is great.
  16. Dusty loves Macias' versatility, but he drains the versatility out of every other player.
  17. I don't have a quarrel with the cavalcade of 7th Inning Stretch performers - but I'd really like to see the practice of chatting with losers about irrelevancies late in close games come to an end.
  18. I'm all for Astro fans being insulted.
