  1. Ok, I'm already sick of hearing about this.
  2. Hendry rarely overpays in deadline deals. I agree. Between Hendrys 3 big trades in recent years, Aramis, Nomar, and harden, the only player whose done anything at the big league level has been Brendan Harris, whose essentially Ryan Theriot. We'll see where Gallagher and Donaldsons careers go. If we can get a solid loogy for spare parts, then go for it, but please dont give up prospects that we can use for something bigger and better in the off season. If one of these teams want something like Kevin Hart, Sam Fuld, or even Aaron Miles, they can have them, but I dont see that happening. That was, of course, a year where we weren't winning, but still...so it was less about overpaying than underselling.
  3. Whining about one team getting more attention than another sounds like White Sox fans.
  4. Only 6 K's....so I think Wood's game score record should be safe.
  5. That's 2 no-hitters too...damn.
  6. How is that the first in a series of moves except by a loose definition considering all trades a series of trades? How does swapping out Duncan for Lugo open up anything, unless they trade Brendan Ryan and Bo Hart for Halladay? By the loose definition, wouldn't the Derosa trade be the first?
  7. They had Chris Duncan in LF. I think the upgrade in offense more than outweighs any defensive difference there might be.
  8. The quote from the dispatch article...sounds like a whole lot of speculation and nothing more:
  9. http://www.suntimes.com/sports/baseball/1681419,CST-SPT-parque23.article A different story than the Barry Bonds/Roger Clemens of the world.
  10. Huh...I didn't realize Duncan was such a hot button topic in STL. Reading all these articles it sounds like fans were riding him pretty hard.
  11. Here's another angle, and wow...talk about a lot of talk over nothing. Lebron was coming in from the side....it wasn't like he was just torched or anything... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kvobIJ3zN6g
  12. BTW...would optioning Duncan down before the trade help Boston with roster moves at all? Just wondering why they made that move if this was on the horizon.
  13. Here's the dunk over Lebron that Nike supposedly confiscated....really tough to see though. http://www.tmz.com/2009/07/22/lebron-james-the-secret-dunk-video-exposed/
  14. I have a problem with them reporting the b/a level. What's the relevance? Where does legitimate journalism end and gossip-mongering begin? If his b/a level is a factor in the incident, fine. But otherwise, it's just tabloid garbage.
  15. If anyone is interested: http://www.pantagraph.com/sports/article_704d699a-761a-11de-80e1-001cc4c002e0.html
  16. Or BP had it wrong in the first place, ESPN printed the article, then BP fixed their version. Yeah, that makes more sense.
  17. I meant to make almost this exact post earlier. The way the media is covering this is irritating me. I think all the story that is there has been covered, unless they find a note or something at this point.
  18. Weird, so ESPN took a correct article and changed that one name to be incorrect?
  19. Boo insider articles.

    You don't think this will be remembered? I think this story will definitely be among the top golf stories for the foreseeable future. Man that was painful to watch. Yeah, even Cink said he recognizes that the tourney will be remembered more for Watson than for himself. The tournament will be remembered more for Tiger actually missing a cut at a major than Cink. I don't think this will be something that people are going to remember for years and years as they would have if Watson won. It's not Jean Van de Velde in 1999. Completely disagree. Tiger missing the cut would've been the story if Watson hadn't almost happened, but I think the Tiger story is all but gone already. When I think about this tourney, I'm going to remember Watson's 18th hole on Sunday, and the second playoff hole tee shot into the crap.

    I like the US Open better than the Masters. Yep.
