    What's more bizarre? A) the phrase "tossed salad" in a info blip about Steve Trachsel or B) That a screen-shot of Steve Trachsel is the subject of a thread in December.

    I take an HGH for breakfast everyday. I don't see what the big deal is, besides these guns.

    Didn't Meph suggest that Japanese baseball will be close to being on par with the National League next year? I'm not sure if he was serious or thinking out loud, but there might be something to it. I really don't know.

    I salivate at the opportunity of replacing Ryan Theriot.

    Is the title of the clinic Living the Dream: How to be Successful in the Absence of Ability by any chance?

    The brewers are going to be so awesome next year.

    That's pretty much what I was thinking. I wonder how he's going to pan out with more AB's?

    SS. They field more batted balls and therefore their defensive prowess is more likely to have an effect on the outcome of the game. I doubt the length of the infield grass does much to mitigate this.

    +1 It's probably impossible to take the numbers and narrow down steroids' effect on individual stats with rare exception, but as an overall effect on the game, it might be possible to figure out what overall trends emerged during the period, such as pitcher velocity and slugging ability. Conceivably, anyway.

    Well, baseball used to have a clock. It was called "the sun". And it did have a noticeable effect on the length of games, and especially the length of the later innings when the sunlight began to dwindle. Somewhat similar to the effect of the end of regulation in basketball, but not all that much. A small point, but one worth making. Also, for my two cents, I could care less about steroids and the Mitchell Report. The vilifying of McGwire, Sosa, Bonds, et al is hilariously hypocritical given the circumstances. That doesn't mean that I think players should take steroids, it means that I don't blame them for doing so considering the circumstances.

    you stayed about 2 seconds longer than necessary Unless it was to go into that giant Cabella's. That's the only thing I've ever done in WV.

    So he's like Adam Archuleta but with a bit more flab. I'm not saying I wouldn't have a beer with the guy. Just keep him off my 25 man, that's all. Good luck to him. Sure you want to limit that to just the 25-man?

    I thought Fausto was better but CC was pretty good too.

    David Eckstein, eat your heart out.

    I mean honestly. The Rays. The Tampa Bay Rays. Ugh. I mean, we can go completely old school on this one, call them the Green Sox. They don't even have to wear green socks. The White Sox don't, at least as far as I can tell because all those fools wear their athletic pants down to their heel like boot-cut levis. Heck, the only time I see White Sox fans wearing white socks is when they have sandals on. The Palms? The Sailors? The Ponce De Leon's? The Sands? Something please, something other than the Rays. That's just a slippery slope to "The Humids"

    I mean seriously, the "Rays"? Anything, well, almost anything, would be better than that. Hell, call them the Floridians. Call them the Oranges. Call them the Hurricanes. Call them the something not related to Florida, because really, since when did the name necessarily have to be associated with the geographical area or the fans. Now you're open to a whole swath of possibilities. Honor the Negro Leagues by using one of their many awesome baseball monikers such as the "Grays" (though I think that one should be used in D.C., cause the 'nationals" is just as dumb a name as 'rays') or the "Monarchs". Please, dear God, something other than a freaking intangible radiant wave of light.

    I believe that is the sun, casting its "rays". I mean really, there are some pretty sweet animals in Florida, the grandest of all being the Alligator. The best they could come up with was the Rays? Hell, I would have preferred "The Geriatrics" to the "Rays".

    I'd rather they kept at least one of the teams there, preferably Miami. You can't really blame those guys for not wanting to go and support that team given the way their owners have treated it. If they had an owner who wasn't a jackass and would at least attempt to privately finance a stadium and not "Huizenga" the team after a WS, then people might start showing up to games and caring. Miami is a far better market than Tampa Bay, from what I understand. I used to have this cooky idea that the MLB should equalize the leagues to 15 teams per, until I realized that would cause a scheduling conflict. It went something like move the Devil Rays to Portland or Las Vegas, add them to the AL West, then move the Marlins to the AL East, then move Pittsburgh to the NL East. 5 teams per division, 15 teams per league. I'm not even really sure why I thought it was a good idea... OCD?

    I prefer that he not take up offices in New York like everyone else. Actually, that's probably one of the very few things I like about Bud Selig. If I was an owner, I'd probably be kind of pissed that we're paying for office space for this guy in like, the most expensive place on the planet, yet, he's got another office in Milwaukee. Not to mention the travel from place to place that he inevitably must do. Then again, it could be worse. At least his other office isn't in Cincinnati.
  24. seanimal
    I don't know why, but I find it funny that the commissioner of Major League Baseball has an office in Milwaukee. (yes, I know, but still... Milwaukee? You're a big shot now. Big shots don't have offices in Milwaukee.)

    What's the problem? Every feature we had on the old premium we have on this phpbb3, the only difference is there are a few adds. Tim has already explained why it's taking a little while; cut him some slack. I'm not trying to be a jerk....he can have all the slack he needs...I'm just not a fan of the adds at all, they annoy the crap out of me...I finally figured out how to turn off all the photos/avatars/sigs on phpbb3...which makes viewing a bit easier...all that stuff was auto off for me on the old board and I missed it....in all, its not "bad"...I just don't like change...especially change attached to google adds. :lol: BF Vista has no google ads. Just sayin' way to ruin for everyone All three of you who think BF Vista is anything resembling tolerable. I'd rather piddle around with Monolith.
