    Sulley just turned me on to him. I don't think I've ever been this in love in my life. I've downloaded everybit of El-P, Company Flo, Aesop Rock, etc etc I can find. The Overly Dramatic Truth might be the best song ever.

    Oh man, who was it that Tim wanted to trade for Lew Ford? I remember it being absolutely hilarious in retrospect.

    I dont think it's a buzzword. I do think it's a good idea in just about all cases.

    except that wasn't a curveball. :roll: curveball, fastball, foshball, gyroball, eephus, it doesn't matter. I can tell everything I need to know about a player from watching a handful of at-bats. What the hell is a vorp

    I just imagined Jesus being a dick about Lost, and I still haven't stopped laughing. http://i8.photobucket.com/albums/a47/madhops_42/jesusisadick.jpg

    My first post consisted of me calling Dontrelle Willis "kid". As in "that kid is something else". This is now one of my biggest pet peeves. I really hate myself.

    I remember hating soccer10k at first, but he must not suck ass anymore, because i mysteriously stopped hating him. also, who the hell is dew? +1 for soccer

    Is that good? What about HR? Is he clutch? Your "stats" and "numbers" don't impress me. Seriously. Take those stats and stick them up your ass, geek. I saw Pie with the bases loaded and his knees buckled on a curve ball. Told me all I needed to know.

    So plate discipline still means that he isn't swinging at pitches he can't hit well, right? If so, then my original question stands, why all the concern about Vitters plate discipline? A walk gets you on base 100% of the time, where contact is a hit 35% of time? (totally made up number). He might be able to hit a ball three feet out of the zone, but there's a reason that only a handful of guys have made a successful career out of doing that. Of course, if he can make solid contact on those pitches, then I'm all for it. He won't be able to pull an ichiro though, because he has no wheels.

    truthfully, this should be a tie and not for good reasons, either

    You mean one-sided, right? I thought he meant you probably really hate one and really like the other. :? Yeah guy, I know what polarizing means. Who doesn't like Sulley? He's one of the greats. Sulley in a runaway. communists don't like boobs. Well, everyone knows you do.

    Don't worry about him. He just learned that if he keeps saying that "loogys dont exist" it pisses people off.

    Verlander

    imb replied to B's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk

    No he didn't. He made a career out of striking out a couple guys and forcing weak contact by pitching with a lot of movement.

    seriously? Yeah, there have to be better names than that. Like Diarrhea for example. His name is Renterrhea, you morons. Catch up with the times.
  17. imb
    Vancent, pm me your number so i can get ahold of you when i get there. I'll head to one of the games a bit early and we can go lounge around and grab a beer at the park or something.

    Is this a joke? Runs scored is such a terrible way to judge a player that I really hope it is. First off, you can toss out Renteria, Hall, Cuddyer, Ibanez and Uggla, seeing as how its a difference of, at maximum, six runs. And over 162 games, there are all kinds of ways that a player might score six more runs than a player with a higher OBP. As for the other guys? Plate Appearances Dunn - 673, Reds scored 749 runs. Damon - 660, Yankees scored 930 runs. Damon hit in front of ARod, Giambi, Jeter, etc Ramirez - 689, Marlins scored 758 runs. Ramirez hit in front of Uggla, Cabrera and Jacobs. Reyes - 700, Mets scored 834. Reyes hit in front of Wright, Beltran and Delgado Rollins - 746, Phillies scored 865 runs. Hit in front of Utley, Howard and Burrell. There are a lot of reasons Dunn scored less runs than the players you listed.

    Why are OBP and AVG both counted? That seems sort of redundant.
  20. imb
    this one is sort of shocking

    DO YOU BELIEVE IN MIRACLES?

    I only sort of follow this thread, so if you've seen these before, forgiveness please Maradona repeat? and then the greatest goal ever, which you've probably all seen. I came across this video a month ago and i probably watch it twice a week.

    yeah, 22 year olds in their first NBA finals against the best defensive team in the league should always do better than 25-7-6.
