  1. 2X cheers to M Prior and family 8X cheers to kctigers23 avatar !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  2. This is getting very boring....c'mon A's show some spark.
  3. To answer the question posed in the title of this thread, I'd buy a boat.
  4. The Gerbil in a Cubs uniform......now that would be f'ng funny.......but he would have kicked the crap out of Neifi more than a few times this past year.....haha
  5. Congrats !! You got mentioned on Deadspin.com. A worthy cause GROTA .....well done
  6. I would say that a manager impacts the outcome of 10% of the regular season games. So thats 16 games. Is he great if that is 14-2 and terrible if that is 2-14 ?? So be it. The majority of that impact, IMO, is the use of the bullpen and starting pitching. In the post-season the impact is bigger. I liked how Leyland used his pitching staff, particulary Kenny Rogers. He didn't pitch him in Yankee Stadium (good move) and he rode him very well in game 3 when a lot of managers would have pulled him before the 8th. I didn't like how Torre "tinkered" with his line-up. Using Sheffield at 1st base was just plain dumb. Then again, when your season is hanging in the balance and the best you can muster up is Jaret Wright you have a bit of a pitching problem.
  7. Damn...I gotta go out. I wish this game ended right now. No lead is safe vs. NYFY . Hope I dont jinx the Tigers by not watching the rest of this game. Close it out Tigers !!!!
  8. Stunning, absolutely stunning. I would lay good money on ARod pouting all game about this one.
  9. I thought the Big Hurt would win. Oh well.
  10. I too have always been a bit suspicious of Clemens. With all the articles about his "famous" off season training regimes that he and his buddy Pettite went through in Texas. It was always "How hard Roger works out....yada yada ".....a bit of a stretch IMO. I always gave Tejada a pass....no real reason for it....but his name does seem to come up quite a bit.
  11. I agree 100% that the save stat is overrated. Kudos to Hoffman as well. Valid point made by you.
  12. Welcome back Peter Gammons....u were missed....and I mean that seriously
  13. Only thing I really believe is that Condy Rice has a far greater chance of being the 1st woman president than Hillary. McCain would be a lock if he wasn't so old. GOP cannot afford to have McCain as the candidate or they will suffer the same fate as when George Sr. ran vs. Clinton. The populace does not relate to a Jimmy Stewart-type figure in the White House like they did in the 80's with Reagan.
  14. Go Justin Morneau....thxs
  15. I believe the Tuna's head will explode after his 'Boys lose in Jacksonville. Troy Aikman ain't too objective at the moment.
  16. Well, it helps to be playing the abysmal Chris Simms. Steve Young probably agrees w/ u but don't tell Phil.....he gets a little mad.
  17. Kewl...Buzzsaw up by 10 with 2:00 to go in the 3rd Q.........swwwwwwiiiiiiii
  18. My sleeper pick of the week was Baltimore....nice to see them beat the Bucs. I actually think the Ravens will do well this year. My other sleeper team this year is the Buzzsaw.....they better beat the Niners but aren't looking good to cover though ](*,)
  19. I suppose I'm distinctly in the minority in this thread but Larry Dierker is in no way, shape or form the solution to the Cubs problems. Wish upon a star if you want but Larry Dieker ceratinly isn't it.
  20. I have seen this one, he homers. HAHA....dead bang f'ng on.....even though Miles broke it up. The Pujols song remains the same.
  21. Geesh.....Miles singles to center......baaaaaaaaaawaaaaaaaaa
  22. Top of the 9th about to begin in Washington.
