  1. Nice AB there coming down from 0-2 to draw the walk by Byrd! Woohoo! 3-1 NL!
  2. They did for several years. I'm glad they got rid of that because all of those uniforms were hideous.
  3. Who needs Ichiro when you can have a Fukucopter?
  4. OH MY GOD SOMEBODY THREW A PITCH I THINK WE'VE STARTED NOW!!
  5. I think I've died. This is hell, and this game will never start.
  6. Ok, seriously, they're just [expletive] with us now. There is no way that someone thought that dicking around for nearly an hour was a good idea. I'm with JR, if you want to do all this stuff, start an hour earlier.
  7. Yes, 1996 was a long time ago. Shut up and start the damn game.
  8. Oh my God, can we please stop dicking around and just get to the [expletive] game already? Jesus Christ.
  9. A hard cap would be ok, but there should be a couple season grandfather period in which teams can gradually adjust and meet the deadline by a certain year, instead of having to gut their teams right away.
  10. Why? An old man in bad health for a decade finally died. I don't know why. He's always been there. Mostly as the guy I loved to hate in baseball. I guess it is a strange reaction to have given the situation. He seemed like one of those larger-than-life iconic figures. It's always a little hard to grasp when they're first gone.
  11. I think its pretty accurate, he deserved it. Stern took both Gilbert and LeBron to task.
  12. Raw is right. He's gone. WABC in New York confirms it. http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=news&id=7551966
  13. So does this mean God will sign a 10-year/$500 million contract with the Yankees?
  14. A few unconfirmed reports on Twitter of his death
  15. WABC in New York is reporting that George Steinbrenner is in "extremely critical" condition after suffering a massive heart attack in his Tampa home Monday night. Thoughts and prayers to the Steinbrenner family. A few links: http://www.sportsgrid.com/mlb/george-steinbrenner-suffers-massive-heart-attack/ http://cbs5.com/national/George.Steinbrenner.heart.2.1801640.html EDIT: He has passed away. http://abclocal.go.com/wabc/story?section=news&id=7551966
  16. Is it wrong that I'm extremely jealous of those kids in the OF that get to shag flies? I would have murdered nuns at that age to get a chance like that.
  17. I DESPISE the guy, but he's got the most energy and whatnot so I think he'll win. What's your beef with Swisher?
  18. Home runs put butts in seats. Sure, something like throwing accuracy might be very important on a day-to-day level, but it's not something the fans are going to pack stadiums to watch exhibitions.
  19. Who knows? I wonder if he'd be interested in going to Miami once Fisher decides to stay with LA. And can Jesse Jackson have his vocal cords removed? Anyone crying about racism in the aftermath of this whole situation isn't all there. But again, consider the source. He really needs to shut up. He does more harm than good for his cause. Every time something bad happens to or something bad is said about a black person it isn't always seeded in racism.
