Maybe I missed this but what is Hank White doing this year?

i wonder if they backloaded his contract to put the burden on the new owners...............???? :good: Great news!

Why exactly should the LA Dodgers care how Manny did or didn't play in Boston? What would make them want to pee in Manny's Cheerios? Was the lack of motivation in Boston really a money thing? I don't believe that to be true. To me, and I suppose I could be wrong, he went from an organization that seemed more willing to be rid of him and then to an organization who seemed to want him. It's hard to get motivated to go out and play your best everyday when the organization you play for doesn't see the value you bring. And I need to understand how Manny did this to Cleveland, also. In his final season in Cleveland, he posted: .351/.457/.697 For the value he can provide to a team, the teams who can can afford $20m would be stupid to assume that they would automatically get the displaced Boston Manny instead of the inspired LA Manny. Hendry has my blessing to give Manny whatever sum of money he will want to be a Cub in 2009. Good Morning, Obviously you do not listen to the baseball channel on XM radio. Basically Manny is about Manny. He wanted the last two years of his contract voided because they were club options for the paltry sum of $20 million a year. When the red sox told him they did not want to void them he basically quit on them, hid out in the training room, mouthed off to the press, and forced them to dump him. If you will look a the games before he got traded Manny was not in the lineup because his so called injury was not healing. Of course when he got traded to the Dodgers he got well overnight. In addition, because he had to agree to the trade, the club options had to be removed from his contract so he could be a free agent at the end of the season. I have never heard Kennedy?Dibble rip a player like they did Manny while all of this transpired. Here he was in Boston, his team in the middle of a pennant race, and he was all about Manny and the money. They cut to the chase pretty quickly and called it what it really was. A selfish, non-team player who wanted more money and would do anything, including quitting on the team that is currently paying him, quitting on his team mates in a pennant race, to get what he wanted. They also mentioned he did something similar to that when he left Cleveland. Sorry, you can point to his numbers all day long. And I am sure Hank Steinbrenner will be forgiving, but Manny could rot on the vine before I would want him playing for me. I have coached too many years to put up with the kind of garbage Manny gives out, it is not fair to the other players on the team. Kennedy and Dibble are assclowns

Flippped away from the anthem but the introductions reminded me of a monster truck race or something. I guess kind of fitting in that hinky dome. I dont mind the Rays being there but I hate to see the World Series played on that field.

Is Len a left hander or a right hander? We could really use some balance in the booth ;)

Today is the day - yesterday I picked my "Believe" bracelet up from the place I left it in 2004 and put it back on my wrist. The gods are now on our side.................

This is all I can do, ask this question over and over. Discarding the supernatural, I cannot for the life of me figure out how Loney's ball reached the seats when Edmonds' ball did not. Edmonds had much better contact and it looked like he hit the ball much harder than Loney. If Edmond's ball died at the wall, Loney's should have been a lazy 350' fly out to CF. At the moment of contact, I actually jumped up in celebration, because there was no way that Loney ball was HR and I thought Demp got out of it. I just don't get it, and I don't think I can stop obsessing about it until the next game starts. I thought Demp was out of it as well but that ball just kept going and going and going........................ :scratch:

They said on the Score today that it was black pride night :hello:

When is Ozzie going to figure out that Wise sucks........... :lol:

Not growing a beard....... maybe shave my head though?

Man this whole TBS thing is a joke............... just flipping back and forth did anyone see Tommy Lasorda on Tribune Live on Comcast? The man appeared to be wastedl.............

I would so love to see Braun pull a Brant Brown to lose the game for the Brewers........

that was heinous................. from Argenis

67 pitches through 3 innings - I love it when our offense does that...................

It's a place in Florida where a bunch of borderline criminals play football??

What if he's still perfect through five? :cool: Pat just said that they are going to consider it a normal outing for Z as he has only pitched about 16 innings in the month of September.

DERO is my hero!!

People can say what they want about Santo but the radio broadcast is kind of boring without him.

I thought there were better options available but accepted it and moved on. I had kind of forgotten the Rothschild issue - at that time I remember a few voices in the wilderness saying that Rothschild was ok the problem was Dusty would not listen to him. I think this may have been proven out.

Anbody besides me got goosebumps???

Switching to wgn radio audio even with a delay - gotta hear Pat and Ron in the 9th!!!!!

I love to watch Marmol and Pujols go at it............

If they are still in it the plan is to do it 2 more times - Wednesday and Sunday

Reds have bases loaded 1 out
