  1. I'd just like to congratulate the Donkey on reaching the 40 home run plateau. If it had to come against the Cards so be it, I'm just glad he got it dunn. Also props for the stellar ops once again. Here's to people continually devalueing him so there's more room on the bandwagon.
  2. Al Reyes likely done for the year with an elbow injury. CRAP
  3. Don't you think the passing of a young man in the prime of life with two young children and a wife is slightly more tragic than someone who was 78 and sick in the hospital for weeks before he passed? Death is death, but when you can prepare for it in advance it is much easier to deal with. vaball - I was at the game and I didn't really hear much booing at all. I think the booing is exaggerated because people don't want all Cardinals fans to look like blind homers.
  4. Oh I agree. I was just saying that calling a Sox fan dumb is redundant since to be a Sox fan by definition you have to be dumb.
  5. Yeah I got harassed by a drunk guy behind me because I just stood w/out applauding. He told me to stop being a Cards fan because I wasn't clapping for McGwire. I don't think he was really that much of an ass, I think he was just mad because I laughed at his wife after she told me not to boo Ray King. Of course right after that he gave up a hit and a walk and loaded the bases without retiring a single batter and booed him again. He wasn't happy.
  6. Don't you think calling a Sox fan dumb is a tad redundant?
  7. I couldn't find the thread where this was discussed earlier. Admittedly I didin't look very long. Anyway, I made the journey south last night (Friday) to say farewell to the current Busch. As most of you probably know McGwire was there to tear down the #3 for the three games remaining. There was some debate on this board as to what the reaction would be. It was exactly as I thought and said it would be. Mac received not one, but two looong standing o's. One when he removed the number and one when they interviewed him in the press box for his homerun record as the #3 greatest moment in Busch Stadium history. Last night they gave away the top ten greatest moment dvd's and were showing it between innings. After every moment they had someone who had something to do with it up in the press box being interviewed by Bob Carpenter and then waved at the crowd. The fans went nuts for McGwire.
  8. I have a feeling there will be like 2 people there, but we'll go live. draft set for this Sunday at 8 pm.
  9. Pettite, Peavy, and Oswalt aren't too far off either. Pettite quietly had an incredible year. 2.42 era, 1.04 whip, in 215 innings? Who saw that one coming?
  10. Sammy now or Sammy as a Cub? Now I'd go Z, as a Cub I'd go Sam hands down.
  11. You are correct sir.
  12. Fine you convinced me. I'll move it to the 28th.
  13. I'll auto pick the draft and change the draft settings to ready Wednesday (26th) night.
  14. mulder's trying to make carpenter feel better about his start. I'm trying real hard not to be like the many idiots who are in full panic mode, but it's getting hard. Let's just say I'm am concerned. A lot of people are writing it off to already having clinched, but I'm saying that's a bunch of crap if winning the Cy isn't motivation enough for Carp and proving himself to his new manager Mulder then there's a bigger issue. I think they are trying just as hard. I think maybe all this Cy Young talk is getting to Carp a little bit. Maybe it was just a bad night for Mark. We'll see I guess.
  15. I say give it to Dontrelle at this point.
  16. I'm thinking it should be autopick since not everybody is a harcore hockey fan, but if you people want a live draft, then we'll do it.
  17. What is that, a two team league? Geez.
  18. I don't think you're overvalueing him. He definitely should be one of your keepers. He's young, very talented, and has a group of young very talented receivers to work with like Chad Johnson and that Houshamanahdahezedeh guy. Plus a good running game. I don't do the trade myself.
  19. Yeah it's still open. We've got 5 teams and I'd like to get 7 or 8. Yahoo league # - 6199 password - hockey join in
  20. The amount of adrenaline surging through Z's body would be immeasureable. I would predict a broken bat homerun.
  21. You really think Len would pick Clemens only because Carpenter is in a Cardinal uniform? That was aimed more toward Joe Buck not Len. It was also a joke.
  22. So wouldn't the highest score be 120 then? 12 teams, 10 categories? I thought it, but didn't want to push the issue. Whatever. I don't remember the scoring. It was last year in a Yahoo public league. That was my team. I won by a lot.
  23. Len picks Rocket eh? I wonder if anyone has asked Joe Buck. He'd probably be objective about it right?
  24. Wow. I don't think you want to open up an immaculate conception didn't actually happen debate. Oooh, I do. It's impossible. Limiting God is a long and futile pasttime.
  25. Wow. I don't think you want to open up an immaculate conception didn't actually happen debate.
