  1. Way back when, I told Treeman that Lee would hit .330, toot toot.
  2. i vote dusty baker.
  3. why the hell would they do that? They already have a million outfielders.
  4. Hahahah, OU sucks so bad that a guy blew himself up on campus during the game yesterday.
  5. Ugh, I'm getting Nebraska vs ISU.
  6. I think we should sign Neifi! to an April only contract.
  7. but technically, he could still get 20 yes votes, he didnt put a time limit on how long this poll would be open.
  8. im sad that i didnt come up with "Rusty".
  9. Jones will not win the MVP, his last month has been awful. .235 .307 .539 In total win shares, Jones is 18th in the NL, and that is including the 6 win shares he gets with his glove. He has fewer hitting win shares than David Eckstein. In Runs Created, Jones is 25th in the NL, behind luminaries like Jimmy Rollins, Brady Clark and Juan "The Don" Encarnacion. Jones will not win the MVP, if he does, it's a steal of Pendleton like proportions.
  10. we went to wrigley field, we got that wiggley feel

    my best friend on the team was the sweeper, and that was pretty much his modus operandi for every opposing player.

    Kind of pertinent. When I was a freshman, one of our seniors who went on to play college soccer had a unique way of heading the ball. He would always know where the ref was and bring both hands up, clenched in a fist. While shielding the ref, he would punch the ball with the hand on the far side of his body, while making it look like he headed it. He always got away with it. Don't ask me how. you played with maradona?

    Ooh ooh, i didnt know this was a "Keepers dirty secret" thread. What about the "I was trying the punch the ball out but i missed and hit you in the face, my bad" move.
  14. ARod said that therapy can be very theraputic.
  15. They should let me write an article about Bowden.
  16. You know what I cannot believe? I have always hated (HATED) Peyton Manning, all the way back to when he first started at Tennessee. It was irrational most of the time, but I couldn't not hate him. Then last year I watched some Colts games on Sunday Ticket, and I became a huge fan because he is just too [expletive] good. So this year I drafted him, and he's [expletive] garbage. [expletive] YOU MANNING.
  17. Sadly, the average baseball fan is a moron, and that is who the Trib caters too.
  18. I'm a big fan of Cabrera, but how is he "better than Pujols at a younger age?" Cabrera's highest season OPS (this year) is a few points lower than Pujols' worst season (2002). Cabrera is 22 now, and Pujols was 22 in 2002. I'd call Pujols the better fielder, too. He was better at third than Cabrera, and he actually played short in a game in 2002. There's no question that Cabrera is a better value than Pujols. Pujols is the second-best 1B in baseball this year and makes $11 million. Cabrera is the second-best LF in baseball this year (behind Jason Bay) and makes $370,000. I'd be glad to have them both, of course. :wink: Park Factors. Cabrera on the road this year: 1.016 OPS Which is still well below what Pujols does on a regular basis. If you use stats like Win Shares and VORP, Cabrera isn't on the same level as Pujols this year, and wasn't even on the same planet last year. Compare Cabrera's season at age 22 with Pujols season at age 22, much fairer and much closer.
  19. all so young to be led astray by the dark side . Is his dad a cards fan or something? It's not to late to save him It's not too late to take him out to the woods and drop him off and start over.

  21. It's this kind of thinking that caused the Alfonseca trade; look at save totals, ignore peripherals. and your kind of thinking is what lead to using hawkins to close. he's got great stuff so he should be a great closer. BJ Ryan has had a great year as a closer, in the AL East of all leagues, what else do you want?

  23. fantasy basketball, draft is Oct 10 at 8pm central league ID-35455 password-cubs
  24. Wow, all that time I didn't know that it was Walker's fault that Wakefield gave up that HR to Aaron Boone in 2003, and then him not being on the Red Sox last year enabled them to overcome a 3-0 deficit in their series against the Yankees! i always blamed todd walker and his 2003 alcs line of .370/.414/.704 for the red sox losing. that's because i watched every one of those playoff games everyone knows you cant watch the games AND read stats, dummy.
  25. that's a fantasy website, so being injured does equal being a bust.
