poor Raisin!

So people are now taking rumors of appearances in the Mitchell report as fact that said player used steroids? I'm going to bump this post in 30 minutes. Bump

sweet!

The Daily Herald website has this time-stamped at 12:25pm today.

No more rick roll posts in this thread, please. Thanks.

yay! I just kind of figured that no news was good news on that front.

huh.

Thanks, Wekse!

Hello, Wekse?!?! Sitemailed as well. Whichever bat he doesn't choose flips over to Predictions.

GALLAGHER!

No, I'm not sure what all Felix included in his sig.

Wekse, these are two pics of the sig portions of the bats. The bats themselves are the same -- blonde Rawlings Big Sticks, supposed to be the same size, but the Rios bat is about 1/4" longer.

Let me know which one you prefer. Thanks!! (and congrats!!)

That sucks. Everyone can check their score and post their new one if it's different. I don't have the time or the energy to rescore everyone's entry.

This thread is now dead. Keep an eye out for the 2008 Game Thread Starter thread, to be posted 1/1/08!

I had a missed call from you, Yeti, but you didn't leave a message.

Something must be wrong if Bob Sanders placed in the top 5.
