  1. you've come to the right place, we're all trying to work through this together
  2. At the simplest level, just a gut feeling. Take Julio Franco for example. Bobby Cox always brings him back at the end of every year. If a manager who has taken his team to the playoffs 14 straight years feels that he is a valuable addition to the clubhouse, then I'd have to believe him. he was there because he wasn't making a lot of money and putting up respectable numbers
  3. Nothing special, but not bad either. I don't see how that furthers either argument with such a small sample size. you're right it's nothing special because it's bad. Ryan Theriot bad.
  4. I was wondering the same thing myself. the only race thing I remember was him saying that black people play better in the heat. You don't remember his claims of incessant racial taunts against LaTroy Hawkins and Jacque Jones? Or his comments about San Francisco's racist tendencies when they ran him out of town? his defenses of LaTroy and Jacque were justified
  5. I would trade for the younger, better player and say that he has intangibles such as being younger and better
  6. I'm pretty sure he's the reason my grandfather died
  7. he'll bite the head off a live baby
  8. clearly the season is lost, bring up Gallagher and give him the ball
  9. not a bad deal for some people if they're home games ;)
  10. Mrs. Myers after a Phillies win. Celebratory wife beatings are the best kind of wife beatings. that and everyone knows Edmonds isn't a catcher
  11. Is he going to stand 5 feet in front of the hitter or something? I LOLed at mental image of a liner off the forehead?
  12. the only funny part is that people still believe in curses and jinxes
  13. why can't stuff like that be on youtube or AFV?
  14. Warner Wolf, a longtime NY area sports guy on the news, and ESPN 1050 personality, recently told the story, I believe, about the first time a team (probably Yankees) used numbers. They stuck to the number of their position or batting order, can't remember. I think it was in the 20's. Batting order, which is why Ruth was 3 and Gerhig 4. and, unfortunately, Theriot is 2
  15. Wait, what? You guys have both been to another road game on April 9th that also went 15 innings? Weird. Yeah... we were in Atlanta 4 years ago when the CUBS beat the Braves 2-1 in 15. Ain't that a hoot !! we're gonna need to see some sort of proof
  16. I agree. Speaking of which - since this is obviously the case - I am going to break the news to Sarah Wood...I'm sure she'll need someone to comfort her when she finds out... 8-) yeah she needs someone's fukudome jersey to cry on. =D>
  17. happened to me again about a half hour ago
