  1. Very intelligent article until he talks about Kenny Lofton somehow preventing his teams from winning in the postseason....wha????????
  2. I'd rather have him out of the division, but ok. Murton for certain!
  3. Oh. I wasn't aware we had an ex-player on board. Cool.
  4. Doesn't sound like he's keeping any coaches. Interview is positive, but I'm still doubtful.
  5. Yeah, it just says that he got a second opinion other than O'Neal. It's a good thing. Unless you know O'neal's medical abckground then you are pretty unqualified to make that statement. I know Mark, Mark did some work on me a while back. He is a ifne trainer. When did you get worked on by Mark O'Neal?
  6. No, no, no, and a thousand times no.
  7. Hey! I'm in the Church of Murton!
  8. No pity for Stone. I listened to his radio program this summer. Guy's a nutjob.
  9. Okay. I've picked up a trend. Whenever I predict a blowout, it's a heart-attack, shoestring, last minute win. Whenever I predict a close game, it's a blowout. In that spirit. Bears 24 49ers 17
  10. That's anger radiating off his skin.
  11. Obligatory rolleyes post. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:
  12. as demonstrated by a career winning % of .517 (even after managing Tampa)? It's all about the team you have, not so much about the coach. The rare cases are like Baker who's still stuck in the '60s in regards to walks, and Lou doesn't seem to be any improvement. I mean, Baker had a pretty winning percentage too. He doesn't even know what WHIP is for Christ's sake. I'm not saying he might not be successful, if we field a good team, there's a chance he will be, like in Seattle. But I think just about anyone else would have been better.
  13. Man I love those Orange jerseys. PS. My sig image counts too?
  14. I like the sound of this. Please let those two OF be our French outfielders. From what Bruce said about liking Murton and noticing numbers, this seems to leave those two. If this happens, we're well on our way to a terrific offseason.
  15. If it weren't for the Bears victory, I'd be pissed. He stinks and almost anyone else was better.
  16. You gonna set one up for the bye week? :lol:
  17. Stars in eyes, but man those are some nice stars.
  18. Quoted for Field Day Photoshops and snarky comments.
  19. Ok. Just got back from the campus bars. HOLY ****ING S****!!!!!! WHAT AN AMAZING GAME!!! It was pandemonium there. Glasses breaking, beer spilling, tables pounding, students dancing, high fiving, body slamming..... It was especially sweet because there was a Cardinals fan that was giving us crap the whole night. BEARS BEARS BEARS BERASB ASERB ASERSB ARSSBASRES!!!!
  20. What? The guy with a career 4.60 ERA? Really?
  21. Great news indeed. Thanks for all your hard work in that area.
  22. I like every word of that, especially the part about Soriano in CF. Prepare to be bombarded by the "Soriano is overrated and sucks" faction. Last year the guy was a bum who didn't get on enough and was going to stink now that he's not in a hitters park and lo and behold...40/40. Contract year? If there's one guy it applies to it'd be Soriano.... Besides, I like Soriano in CF or at 2B. He's not over-rated there. I don't think anyone expects him to repeat this year, but even a modest decrease in numbers would be very respectable in CF or 2B.
