    One of the first baseball games I ever attended featured an extra innings game winning HR by Julio to give Hough & the Rangers the W. I still like Julio & Sierra a lot.

    Doesn't sound like anything new. Shawn Bradley had loose justification to be on the German Nat'l Team. Same for Thomas Dooley & US Soccer. Talented countries have overflow.

    Cubs, Redskins, Mavs, Horns, Juve.

    I'll give Sabo a second vote. I really wanted Gracie to get the ROY over him. Current players I'm not that fond of include Clemens (despite being a Horns grad), Biggio & Jeff Kent.

    It's like calling Twain, Clement if Twain chose to also go by Vaughn, Doom, Ghedra, Mad Villain, etc. It's more universal to me.

    From espn: http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/playoffs2005/news/story?id=2203527 I like the start of Wall's lyrics: "What you know about Brad Ausmus and what you know about Jason Lane?" Can't say Wall's on my radar, but I do like Dumile, De La & many others of the genre. My rhetorical answer to 'What you know about Brad Ausmus' would have to be, I know that I once went to a game at Minute Maid deep into the season & Ausmus wasn't hitting .200 so for his jumbo-tron screen, they left current BA off. All other players had this listed. Made for a great laugh for me. Why don't they want the fans to know Ausmus' BA. I'm guessing b/c it's sub-Mendoza. Astros hip hop tribute. That's rich.

    pulling for Cards as well. I went to the Z over Pettitte, last Friday of season game. When the Cubs tied it against Lidge, the seats were emptying a lot through my section. Plenty to play for that day & not all that much interest in sticking it out in a pretty mild rough spot. Lot of pretty obnoxious fans upon the early Houston hr's too. I've prev caught a LA-Hou there & finished the 6th-9th sitting by Lima's wife & kid (just before Lima had the herpes/mistress accusations flying I believe) when sections vacated on a 6th inning Dodgers lead. Can't feel the 'earned it' for that beyond maybe players v many disinterested fans. Anyway, I'm going with Grudz.

    Good 'ol Oxxie... Just hanging out on the fence here about then/now, but on the Pittsburgh coke bit, I have to agree that athletes & recreational drug use seems to be a quite diff issue in terms of tainting a game (than steroids). I don't think Ricky Williams taints football by having been identified as a recreational smoker. I distinguish b/w the types in assigning levels of taint. ...did that have anything to do with Tim Raines getting the nickname 'Rock' though?

    nicely done & thanks for the link.

    Anyone know where the Nomar: I never said it would be easy; I only said it would be worth it" pic could be found? I seem to recall that was an original by somewhere here. Thanks in advance.

    Hey Perry, I hear Guzman's had a few problems attaining the hurler skill of staying out of Andrew's office as well.[/b]

    might be appreciated if the link were edited to not have print=true on the end.

    Are you a wizard? I'd wanted to ask that from the first post in the thread & kept thinking better of it, but I waited it out & wizard question won. Welcome to northside. Edit to note that I also spot ninja's better than avg.

    Fairly certain they misspoke, but ESPN radio read off Mitre as today's starter ~an hr ago.
  16. c3ci1
    or perhaps they were traded for the minor leaguers others have mentioned....disregard.
  17. c3ci1
    believe both were just not resigned (could well be wrong there). Mueller left the offseason we got Dusty I think, & I was hopeful that Mueller would fit the bill as a 'Dusty guy' & be kept around, but instead we were Ramon Martinez'd.

    I caught the weekend portion of the LA/SF series at Chavez. Izturis & Kent both played Saturday, giving the Dodgers a somewhat ML-looking lineup - a rare thing for either side in that series.

    The Mavs have made WCF under Cuban. 4-2 Spurs.

    As well, I believe there is a decent bond/good relationship b/w Burnett & the former Fish (now Jays) pitching coach.

    I don't see Chi-Sox (or Stros - edit: nm Stros have not been mentioned with AJ, just in same thread) getting a shot at AJ if Toronto is willing to move Chacin in hopes that they'd be in strong position for resigning him. Chacin's both young & cheap and has enjoyed a strong first half of his rookie season. Roy & AJ would be a great duo for them. Their payroll is thought to be upward-bound & they'd still have plenty of young & cheap players to allow for a solid allocation Burnett's way.

    I've read that he'd prefer a Cubs hat if he makes the Hall. Is he still a Marlin FO employee?
