I think really I just loathe Tony Larussa.
-
How awesome was that strike one call that completely changed that at bat? Thanks blue. Exactly. Really bad strike just now to Pujols too. Did they forget to go over defense in ST? Really annoying to listen to announcers that have no clue what they're talking about too. That should have been an easy pick for a MLB 1B. Yeah this guys zone is terrible.

Yes I would. I'm tired of them losing their ace and winning the world series. They did it in 06 and they're possibly going to do it again this year. Why would it be better if they were better? Well it's been so hard for us to even get to a World Series. Yet they have their best pitcher go down for the year and it doesn't matter. Not sure why, but that pisses me off. At least when they are loaded, like in 04, they are good.

Yep, it's what they do.

Jerry Hairston Jr. is waking up.

Yep - Law said that Szczur would be lucky to become Juan Pierre. When asked on numerous occasions whether he really meant that, he's very strongly re-stated it. He's described Szczur as a slap hitter who will do well to develop Pierre's power. In defense of Law, he has a really small penis.

What players do we actually want to keep off current roster?

Are you [expletive] kidding me? Yeah where could we possibly get better, oh everywhere but SS and 3B. -
Managers just get in the way. Not that it matters, the Cardinals are white hot right now.
-
Gallardo laying a big egg.
-
Where is the next Mark Prior and healthy Kerry Wood at now?
-
Yeah it's so dumb. If Pujols and Fielder both leave this divsion becomes very meh. If we add one of those guys and a pitcher we should be right there.
-
Man it feels good to be excited about the Cubs again, please happen.
-
Good lord, why do al the talking heads act like our team is just the worst thing ever? Like we are a decade away from being good or something.
-
Holy Crap, Tom Ricketts is a pretty great owner.
-
He doesn't, imo. And that's why what he does is so astonishing. MU has more talent than them, and it's not close. Snyder does seem to get his pick of JUCOs and transfers though, and his success rate there is pretty amazing. KU has about a 3% success rate with JUCO players. I swear, almost all of them produce for BS. Snyder has built and sustained the programs success through JUCOs and transfers. It's like the exact opposite way of how a person would think to build a successful program, but it works. They don't have an actual QB and they are undefeated. Crazy One of my good friends was the number 3 all purpose back in America his senior year in 96, he went to Snyder because Snyder promised his mom he would graduate, no matter what happened. He said none of the other schools after him at that point had said anything similar to that. FWIW.

Who cares? We have to put up with Buck and McCarver on Fox, and Greg Amsinger on MLBTV.
-
We have a winner. I'm going to Vegas right now and betting big on the Brewers and Tigers. Please be right on round 2.
-
Yup, because that's why the Phillies offense sucked for the past 4 games. Why is it Ok to believe in nonsensical curses and jinxes but not Santa Claus? I don't see why your surprised anyway. You've been guarantying the Cardinals a spot in The WS the entire game. I'm not shocked, at all. I had a bad feeling this was coming when they crept in. And you can't believe in Santa if you have kids. Cause if you do the tree is empty.
-
So glad LLF made that Xmas in Oct. post. Did we get Theo today?
-
I just hope the Cardinals only kill themselves tonight when they do their DUI thing.
-
Awesome, I [expletive] loathe baseball.
-
You were wrong. It's not awesome at all. It was obviously coming though.

Is choking not something?
