[Pats self on back]

Ok, now time for a run scoring DP

AHAHAHAH YES!

I think Ramirez would be fine there once the weather warms up. He's definitely looking like he has trouble playing in cooler temperatures though. Ramirez is kind of like Soriano Light. 100lbs lighter

There had better be an awesome explanation for this

It's it's.... beautiful

I think they're kind of cool

Maybe he doesn't want to make it seem like he's okay with the suspension. Maybe he's appealing it to prevent a precedent from being set for him. I'd probably appeal it too -- his reputation isn't great, but this is one situation where he might have a case.

well if lous left hand was tied behind his back he'd improve ten fold. =D>

I'd also like to pat myself on the back for pushing for Greinke in that thread. And he's not a pitcher everyone was all over, dexter.

What happens to the 2 awesome tickets I have for tonight?

Wow, that was crap

Hey everyone, I have a couple of bleacher tickets for the home opener I'm looking to get rid of -- 2 of my friends couldn't go at the last minute. NSBB has always been fair about not illegally scalping tickets and as such I'm just looking to get what I paid for them, face value. I'd rather they go to a good fan than some random idiot outside Wrigley. PM me if you're interested. P.S. Mods, feel free to delete if this is not allowed under board guidelines. I've gotten tickets from a few posters in the past but I don't want to break any rules!

Does this mean Marmol is going to be the closer, or is he just going to come in because he was already warming up?

Yeah I hate Scoop too, but it was a fun read

Harden was nasty today

True, and I completely agree with you, but as one of my professors noted, stricter regulations might not deter people who are already risking their own life and the lives of others by choosing to drive drunk. If you're dumb and drunk enough to drive under the influence in the first place, you're probably not thinking logically about consequences anyway.

Harry Kalas still does play-by-play for Philadelphia I think. He's the narrator for NFL Films, so he definitely matches your description. Dude, you're right! That's totally him! I think I'll make a point to watch a few more Phillies games this year just for him. There's also a CD available about Harry. He's one of the more recent additions to Pat Hughes' Baseball Voices series.Man, you'd think Pat would be able to find a decent web designer

I'll never forget that comebacker off his head... wow. I always liked the guy

Thanks... all of their songs sounds really similar haha

Nice video! What's the name of that song? I know I've heard it before...

He didn't need to take his umbrella.

No, you are absolutely not the only one. I was about the post pretty much the same thing. This is going to sound overly dramatic, but it's like my love of baseball died last October. Sure, that always happens when my teams lose like the Cubs did, and usually the excitement comes back a few months before the next season starts. Didn't happen this year. I have no interest in buying tickets. Usually by this time I have tickets lined up for several Cubs-Cards games at Busch. I haven't even looked. I attribute some of it to my mind being on hockey, but mostly I think it's that last summer was so perfect, and the way it was ruined just makes me think I'm not read for another six month investment in these guys. EDIT: But talk to me in June. Or May. Or next week. :) I am mostly on the same ship. I think most seasons you can get really excited, because each year might be the one in which everything falls into place and the team dominates all season. Well that happened last year, and it ended just as miserably as any playoff disappointment. The the symetry of the 100 year anniversary probably added to the anticipation (yeah I know this is the wrong board for sentiment like that). This year it feels more like I have to wait out a long season to see if anything positive will happen, because it's unlikely that the regular season could be anywhere near as great as last year. Having said that, I've been checking in more freqently each day we get closer to opening day. And I'm sure within a few days I'll have a seriously vested interest again. yup. that's it right there. we've seen the best Cubs team of our lifetime (last year) and the best potential team (2004). We've seen it where everything falls into place and we've seen what should have been. Nothing this year produces can compare EXCEPT playoff wins. to me, the season begins in October. Holy Crap, I sound like a Braves fan. I hate myself. Nah, Braves fans don't even show up when the playoffs start.

LMAO at Ron. I'm surprised it doesn't happen more often with him
