  1. brenly would be cool with me. In the last decade i have liked one coach, Piniella in 2008. Just get good players and I don't care who the hell the coach is.
  2. It is in Phoenix http://images1.fanpop.com/images/quiz/27926_1215397703836_500_280.jpg
  3. I heard that today on the radio
  4. ok, but the point remains, FDB.
  5. It's ok, you were probably watching futbol at the time. clap clap clap
  6. wait, goalies can use their hands but other players can't? Is this a new rule.
  7. FREDDY ADU
  8. Too many of the words are spelled correctly for it to be redflash.
  9. It is definitely a rule everywhere that i've ever heard of. I really find it hard to believe you played any kind of organized soccer that let you replace someone that was sent off.
  10. you played for 12 years and didn't know that when a player gets a red card, you can't replace him?????
  11. Is this a joke?
  12. i'm enjoying the bizarre notion that the nationals are the most inconsequential team in the league.
  13. I found all the "off the line" consternation pretty funny considering Scurry was a yard out every PK when they beat China or whoever for the gold.
  14. More like 2 years of Cesar Cedeno's career. If he did that for 8 years, it would be hard to call it a disappointment. he had a 9 year peak where he averaged 29 2B, 5 3B, 16 HR, 49 SB and a .293/.362/.467 line (but just 131 games) before injuries took hold yeah, but i was responding to this quote: "Most are thinking that he'll hit something like .300+avg, .380+obp, 20-25 HR, 40+SB and excellent defense in CF during his prime." whether or not he manages to do that is obviously a wait-and-see, but I think if he pulled it off, it would top an .830 OPS.
  15. if he had done something as simple as work out in the offseason, he would be a sure-fire hall of famer. It's not like it was his inability to make contact that held him back, he was just fat as hell.
  16. More like 2 years of Cesar Cedeno's career. If he did that for 8 years, it would be hard to call it a disappointment. cedeno was top 7 in WAR among NL players for 5 consecutive years, to suggest that he was a bust or an average player would be a mistake. if he hadn't suffered so many injuries - playing half of one's games on the rock-hard Astrodome surface can't be good for a guy who runs a lot - he probably would've been as great long-term as everyone expected him to be. one can also hope that mike trout doesn't accidentally shoot his girlfriend in the head. Yeah, I was talking more about the statistical milestones that I (stupidly) deleted from the string of quotes. Cesar Cedeno hit over .300 three times, hit 20 home runs three times, and had a slugging percentage over .500 twice. Obviously a different era, but the expectations for trout, assuming he stays injury-free, are higher than that. Of course, Andruw Jones looked like he was destined to be the best player on earth, too. He's got over 400 home runs and a mantle of gold gloves, etc, but i'd say he was a disappointment.

  18. I was in the car, listening to this game on the radio and I heard when this happened. The announcers acted like it was no big deal, but the way the fans were screaming, you could tell it was something else

  21. *proud matt moore fantasy owner*
  22. otiz picked cano, hoping he'll change his swing and suck in the second half no stanton is a [expletive] shame
  23. Doubt it. Bundy's a bit bigger and has more gas.
