  1. Without touching the ball. Yeah, forgot to mention that part.
  2. Does anyone else remember the time he broke his bat on a check swing?
  3. Can't wait for Pulford to come back to the front of the line. Rumors were Seabrook and Cullimore to NYR for Peter Prucha. I think Prucha might be a product of playing with Jagr, and I'd much rather hang on to Seabrook.
  4. Elias doesn't care that Pierre works hard and can run fast.
  5. After losing to struggling Philly tonight, the Blackhawks have lost five straight games and have not scored in 205 minutes, 10 seconds. They haven't scored in nine days and haven't won since October 18. Pathetic.
  6. I was gonna sign A-ram, but then I got high... Was gonna sign Jason Schmidt too, but then I got high... We're gonna finish in 6th place, and I know why... Because I got high, because I got high, because I got high... La la la la la la la Great, great post, but you missed a couple 'la's
  7. no, embarassed is losing 9-1 to the Sabres and then 8-2 to the Penguins a week later. Penguins seem to be building a very strong team for a long time. It wasn't that hard having the no-brainer draft picks they had, but still. Just noticed Calder doesn't even have a point yet in 10 games. Ouch.
  8. How exactly does he strike out at much as he helps you? That makes no sense. Against Cubs pitching.
  9. I was telling one of my friends about 2-3 weeks ago about Havlat being all the Hawks had on offense, and if he got hurt they would be in big trouble. She came up to me the other day and said, "I noticed the Hawks have been losing lately, did that guy get hurt or something?" I just nodded. This stinks.
  10. And has that model worked? I really don't see a point in following a model that hasnt worked. You dont need a superstar line-up to win. You also dont need to have a $200 million payroll to win either. Pitching comes first, then you go out and get your hitting. The. Cardinals. Didn't. Have. Great. Pitching. They didnt have great pitching, but their pitching stepped up when it matter the most. Which, in the end, gave them a World Series victory. oh. my. so when you say "pitching comes first," you're saying that teams need to focus on geting pitching that "steps up when it matters the most." I've figured out that his argument is basically the same as saying "whoever has the most runs wins". Because of course whoever wins a game has the best pitching that game, and whoever wins a series has the best pitching that series. Yes, the Cardinals won th....but this world series was not and example of good pitching beating good hitting. How can you say that, the team that pitched better won the series. Nuff said. Wrong. The team that hit better won the series.
  11. Not if they're smart they didn't. He should be a starter.
  12. I hope he bunts with 2 outs to end the game. It would be worth it.
  13. Who else do we not want to win the WS next year? I'm going to Vegas and putting all my tuition money on them.
  14. Are you F%?%?%? kidding me????
  15. Eckstein is so scrappy he can make the other team's players fall down.
  16. Haha, I loved that. I just tuned in. So Pudge took second on Edmonds being lazy. I just heard the announcers say, "Having only played 19 games in right field, Duncan's inexperience showed with that one." Are you kidding me?
  17. Hawks down 3-0 in the second. Their lineup looks like they should be playing in the AHL with all the kids they've got in the lineup. At least we get to see what Bolland, Burish, Blunden have.
  18. Nope, it should be CrackerJack.
  19. If it means adding strength to the far more important rotation and lineup, hell yeah. yeah, but then the cubs are creating a hole while patching up another. It's why you don't trade Z for A-Rod, even if you think it's a good deal, the Cubs can't afford to be giving away talent. This team is BAD, and really the only good way to improve a team this depleted in the short run is to make free agent signings and, if necessary, trade minor leaguers for major-league ready talent. I disagree. I'd decrease the talent in my bullpen for a similar increase in the offense. The offense is going to play a much bigger role over the course of the season.
  20. Never going to hear the end of this....it certainly doesn't look like dirt on Rogers' hand. He claims the ump didn't mention it, the ump said he did. Good thing there's no Yankees or TO news, or ESPN would explode in chaos.
  21. I hope so. I didn't notice him last night, but Kelly said he had his best game of the year. It would seem odd to make a move after he finally had a good game. I still want him out, he's too slow and unable to adjust to the new rules.
  22. I would love Burrell. I'm afraid Philly will hold onto him now though because of their late season surge.
  23. After Googling that, I found this http://kerrywood.ytmnd.com/ Old and not very funny if you ask me.
  24. That was a horrible collapse. I like seeing goals come from all around yesterday, because if this team does lose Havlat for any period of time, they have no go to guy. However the defense just collapsed there in the last 5 minutes. The one-timer from the corner was just horrible. Where was the defensive zone coverage, we had guys back. It's so frustrating to see flashes of brilliance followed by flashes of garbage. At least we should get a pretty exciting year.
