  1. for the 2nd straight day! I can't believe they ONLY played the 5th set today!
  2. near the top, it says, "Please add 50 to the Isner/Mahut game score"
  3. I think he will be taking Wells' spot in the rotation and then playing 2nd on days he's not pitching. This should really help us win.
  4. No joke. almost as bad as http://www.modestapparelchristianclothinglydiaofpurpledressescustomsewing.com/

  6. i don't know. good question. i'm an every 4 year soccer fan and i always root for the USA, but i have a buddy from albania who actually DOES like soccer and he roots for italy because albania sucks at everything. I ask because a former co-worker (who is an all-around douche) likes to pretend that he's from England. He had the Union Jack hanging in his office, a big ben mini-statue, etc... and he puts the unnecessary "u" in words like color and favorite. He also calls potato chips "crisps" even though they were invented and named in the US. He was born and raised in california and his heritage is actually german... Your co worker sounds like a total clown I finally asked him what he has against America and he said he doesn't like our "imperialistic attitude." Oh the irony. He also said that soccer is the only "real" sport (yet he never played it.)

  8. I'm not a big follower of soccer, but the world cup always intrigues me. Just wondering though... do you root for your home country, or do you pick another to root for? I was always under the impression that you either root for your home country or the country you were from (as in you moved from one country to another.) Is it acceptable to root for a country that you have no affiliation with?
  9. he even has wood's ill-conceived facial hair and prior's floppy ears this might honestly be proof that god hates cubs fans of all the pitching phenoms they could have used for comparison, all the media talks about is prior and wood. nice gut punch for cub fans. ankiel was younger, yet i didnt hear him mentioned. nor gooden. i dont remember a bunch of hoopla for wood, and i was in bloomington, il at the time. Me too. And I also don't remember much hoopla about him... Of course I was in HS at the time, so that may have something to do with it.
  10. Ken Griffey Jr. Baseball on the SNES is one of the best baseball games of all time.
  11. Things that happened in 1996: -The Bulls win 72 games and their 4th NBA title in 6 years -The Yankees win their first World Series title since the early 1980's -The Cowboys win their last Super Bowl to date, beating the Steelers -Bill Clinton defeatd Bob Dole and is reelected President of the United States -The Summer Olympics are held in Atlanta, GA -Princess Diana and Prince Charles are divorced -The OJ Simpson Trial begins -On October 27th at around 4:31 PM CST, a young umfan begins puberty Oh and also the Blackhawks won a game at what is then called the CoreStates Center, their last win in Philadelphia until TONIGHT Sorry... I'm behind... the Blackhawks haven't one in Philly since '96?
  12. My wife even said, "How is that guy not out!?" and she doesn't follow baseball much.
  13. Now I'm curious. What's the lowest SLG, OBP, and OPS for a non-pitcher in a season, minimum 500 PA's? It's gotta be Rafael Santana.
  14. Is it just me, or is Keener double posting a lot? Also, on a hit-n-run, you swing the freaking bat! ESPECIALLY if it's right down the middle.
  15. He was throwing mid-90's, but there was hardly any movement and his breaking pitches were flat. I think those things will fix themselves as long as he doesn't try overthrowing.
  16. Ok, who wrote this, this hysterical one... anal fissures? Nobody here has it.
  17. no, because Castro is young and good and the Shawon-o-meter was to make fun of Dunston for being old and bad I seem to remember the Shawon-o-meter being up in his early 20's. He WAS bad though, but had one heck of an arm.
  18. I think he's upset because they made fun of his being slow instead of talking about how other people on the team actually performed. It's a known fact that he's slow... move on.
  19. http://mlb.fanhouse.com/2010/05/13/bengie-molina-upset-with-espn/?ncid=txtlnkusspor00000002 About time that players called ESPN out for being crap. Bengie IS slower than molasses, but he raises a very good point.
  20. Perhaps next time they could talk over the PA and ask the next idiot who runs onto the field his or her age and what their intentions are so that no "innocent" people get tased. That makes much more sense. I can't believe the first idiot is getting air time on tv. Also, maybe they should have a sniper in the press box. Someone runs onto the field, blam.

  22. Looks kinda like he's changed it to be more Pujols-like. Maybe a pinch of Moistest as well.
  23. Administrative Professionals Day? 4:20
