  1. this is going to get bloody.
  2. all this rooting against me is only making my team stronger. also, rooting against me is rooting against the cubs (hill, lilly, soriano). think about it.
  3. That happened to me last year. i think your bigger problem was me scoring 800+ points over two weeks. let's do this, raisin!
  4. those two guys are fighting for the batting title? that was pathetic.
  5. hmm...who should i be rooting for? tim is missing pujols and holliday can't keep this pace up. on the other hand, sabathia and lackey may have their innings limited due to their team clinching. maybe i'll just focus on rooting for the braves and cubs. nice ab, renteria, you douche.
  6. again, i'd be interested in 2 or more for either game. obviously i would pay well over face.
  7. like the cubs, i'm peaking at the right time. 296+ points in six straight weeks. looks like i'll win this week, but i don't know who i'd rather play in the finals. maybe alamo just to mix things up a bit. :D
  8. i'd pay way over face. way over. pm me if you have extras.
  9. i'd definitely be interested in buying anyone's extra tickets.
  10. but is he a "winning type player" like kendall? i think not.
  11. not a good inning for the millionaires.
  12. quit your whining. yeah, it sucks, but the cubs missed oswalt twice and webb when they were in arizona. the cubs shouldn't need the astros help to win 85 games.
  13. i've never got the whole loss column thing.
  14. sheets gives me -1 points and the brewers still win. fantastic. can't wait til hudson loses 1-0 to the brewers this weekend. i'm surprised verlander was only at -8. i figured 4 homers would put him in the -20 range.
  15. ben sheets' [expletive] ass may have cost me any chance i had at this.
  16. i don't get it. the guy at the plate is the tying run either way. if the guy at the plate is going to tie the game, it has to be with a homer...he doesn't have any other "options." i think you're miscounting or something.
  17. i think your math is off. or something. the bases loaded double makes it 5-3. a single after that makes it 5-4, tying run on first. the grand slam makes it 5-4. a single after that makes it 5-4, tying run on first. how is the double better?
  18. you'd definitely be wrong.
  19. i was so close to benching hill for last night's game...damn. still a good start for me offensively.
  20. jason kendall is a "winning type of player." remember all those world series he won in pittsburgh?
  21. starting now? because you did it in the sentence right before you said you weren't going to do it anymore.
  22. i agree that a scout's opinion is valuable, but that's because a scout's job is to evaluate baseball players...that's what they were trained to do. you were trained in broadcasting, and that's a lot different. Your not arguing that a broadcaster (who watches the team everyday) doesn't have more insight into players than a person who simply looks at stats and reads box scores are you? what is that "insight" exactly? sure, he knows who's nice, who's a jerk, who the coaches like, etc, and, no, i don't have that information. but him seeing ryan theriot everyday when he was in AA doesn't give him anymore insight than i have with regard to his performance with the big league team this year.
  23. i agree that a scout's opinion is valuable, but that's because a scout's job is to evaluate baseball players...that's what they were trained to do. you were trained in broadcasting, and that's a lot different.
  24. Defference and respect are intersections on a two way street. I fully agree. I personally enjoy being part of a community where Radio announcers, TV announcers, parents and spouses of Cubs players, reporters, and other front office people frequent. The easiest way to ruin that is to continue to post childish posts or attack them for every little thing you have issue with. read his original post, which starts off the "attacking." i appreciate these guys being here too, but they don't get a free pass to talk down to people juat because they eat at the buffett table with adam greenberg.
