  1. Should we look at A-Rod's performance as an opportunity to get him for less or proof that he is a miserable playoff player?
  2. that hit broke the ice with me a little bit.. not AS nervous..
  3. chill.. there's oohhhnly oooone oggtober
  4. it seems like i've gotten the impression on here that people don't like him... maybe my perceptions are mistaken..
  5. do lots of people really not like caray?? is there any specific reason.. it seems like 'voice' jobs are frequently 'grandfathered'... and obviously he had a good one to follow...
  6. I'm not a fan - I didn't like the way he managed the DiamondBacks in their 2001 playoff run. I think Alan Trammell is going to be the leading candidate when Lou is done. is that the overall feeling?? i guess it's a two part question.. who did people prefer?? who will they prefer (obviously depending on who's available)??
  7. i'm bored, and i have a question... i wasn't around here yet last year when the manager talk was going on.. and i don't know how long piniella's contract is but what if he were to say manage this year and next, and left.. what is the consensus on bob brenly taking the job??? i don't need an exhaustive debate, but i was just curious what the overall feeling is.. listening to him on the 'damn yankees' game.. that's what prompted the thought btw...
  8. Drinking to take the edge off. Beginning the journey to Chicago!! Enjoy the game, everyone! Just because I might cry like a little girl if the Cubs do what I expect them to, I'll predict a 7-1 Cubs victory tonight. Lilly is awesome, and Kerry Wood makes an appearance and shuts them down for two innings. See you guys this weekend. are you leaving already?? tell me you're not driving from california...
  9. i'm definetly considering a bike ride.. i need to kill some damn time...
  10. any strikeout with first base occupied is a strikeout and you can not reach first i believe, if you could, it would punish the team for having someone first, as the catcher could just let one go and force you into a double play.. IIRC Announcers on TBS just clarified that the catcher does indeed have to throw to first in the situation with two outs. I guess the rationale is that the double play is not in order. so.... is the situation that the guy on first can advance if he chooses too, as well as the guy at the plate and either can be thrown out for choosing to run (obviously the guy at the plate is out if he chooses not to, as he struck out)?
  11. Phils load 'em up... 2 outs in the bottom of the 8th.. corpas is coming in...

  13. i've avoided this place ALL DAY.. (in caps because it has been the longest day since..... well, yesterday) I am so psyched.. i really think we will play a hell of a game tonight.. last night was strange.. i feel like had z had a mediocre outing and given up 5/6 and the final was 6-1, we'd be more optimistic than most of us are.. we really thought we could steal one last night.. oh well, we didn't, move on... GO CUBS....
  14. AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!! LOUD NOISES!!! (in my head- i am going nuts)
  15. would any of you judge me if i told you i just snuck into my room, closed the door so my roomies wouldn't see... took my harry caray signed picture off the wall and gave it a kiss...
  16. is it just me or is ron darling the best pornstar name ever??
  17. check out wgn radio if you can... neat audio highlight...
  18. is it the d'backs closer that dug himself a hole against us within the last month and got out of it and completely went nuts?? that guy was a tool...
