  1. you act like fontenot is a lock to put up those numbers...he's never played a full season in his career. and when you factor in the number of ab's he (or derosa) would get vs. the relatively small number of innings gregg (or guzman/gaudin/whoever) would get...well, the difference between derosa and fontenot is much bigger if fontenot doesn't put up those numbers.
  2. so gathright and gregg vs. derosa. i think i'd take derosa.
  3. doesn't really roll off the tongue. who cares if EP is here, they suck at everything.
  4. well there goes the willis mcgahee chat.
  5. god was already on the cardinals side, now the steelers are doling out a bunch of helmet to helmet hits. cardinals by 24 in the super bowl.
  6. i don't think troy aikman knows that the kickoff is a live ball.
  7. mid-illini representin' up in here.
  8. if the cubs don't get peavy, the cardinals are going to win the central with 83 wins.
  9. i've read enough of you to reasonably form an opinion.
  10. That'd at least make sense. I'm trying to figure out how you figured out that he wasn't committed without monitoring his work effort. just strikes me as a lazy guy. laid back, california kid who got things handed to him from a teenager on (because of his bad-assery at pitching) and got too wrapped up in the "life is good" mentality. again, i don't doubt his DESIRE to pitch. i just don't think he's a "give it your all" type of guy. to everyone... disagree with me, fine. to suggest that my theory is 100% impossible is just, well, flat out stupid and insanely closed minded. And you think it's okay to make up a complete personality workup of the guy and accuse him of negative personality traits based on nothing but a one-sentence sketch of his background? make up? no. come to a conclusion based on what you know about a person? yeah. YOU DON'T KNOW HIM.

  12. every gm in baseball would rather have felix pie than joey gathright. except jim hendry.
  13. i'm not huge on pie by any means, but hendry's handling of him reminds why i think hendry sucks.
  14. nevermind, i don't want him if he looks brooks and dunn.
  15. yes because he was the most FEARED hitter. i'm glad rice got in because i'm sick of hearing about him. jim rice owes tens of thousands of dollars in autograph $ to the senile old sportswriter who first coined that phrase with respect to rice.
  16. jay bell got 204% of the votes? wtf.
  17. i'm disappointed it took someone that long to make that joke. 6.8
  18. if you don't go to don and charlie's you might as well not even go to spring training.
  19. maybe they should stop losing to oregon state.
  20. way to knock him down a peg there, front runner. i'm sure he didn't realize usc was better than illinois until you just delivered that knock out blow. well played.
