  1. yet another disciple of the "every sentence is it's own paragraph" school of journalism Did you scroll through the whole story or just look at the first few graphs which were independent thoughts that needed to be separate paragraphs in order to get the full effect of the writing? I was being hyperbolic
  2. retroactive punishment for 6 year old offenses is a MAJOR slippery slope
  3. yeah, obstructed view means you're behind a pole.
  4. the hats in the pic above are from the 4th of july or another american holiday. they aren't what the cubs will be wearing on the road. ah, too bad. I like them
  5. I'm all for sprucing up the grays, but I hated the Cuba uniforms, and the blue jerseys are horrible. I like the new road blue cap. It's darker and and less vibrant than the home cap.
  6. yet another disciple of the "every sentence is it's own paragraph" school of journalism
  7. I wouldn't "give up the house" for Nash, Yao or Billups
  8. Frankly, I can't explain guys like David Eckstein and Aaron Miles getting starting jobs in the majors.
  9. With the additions of Javier Valentin, and Corey Patterson, along with currnet National Dmitri Young, Jim Bowden is trasnforming the old Montreal Expos into the new Washington Reds. Derwood you also forgot the likes of Corey Patterson, Joel Guzman and Josh Willingham are also in the OF mix some of them are non-roster invitees at this point
  10. this 3 game losing streak was a time when they HAD to win one of the three, but failed. Teams have figured out how to defense them now, and they're struggling for open looks. I can't see going 4-2 when the final schedule has MIN, 2xILL, OSU, IWA and IU
  11. at least PSU will beat Indiana.....the rest.....
  12. This is the Michigan game all over again. 2 point game at the half, and getting blown out in the 2nd
  13. $5.5 million seems steep for a backup who can only really play 1B
  14. Maybe they talked Dunn into playing first. Can the cut Johnson and / Young? if there was ever a team that needed 3 or 4 DH slots in their lineup...
  15. but seriously, another deal with the Nats coming? How do they fit Dunn, Langerhans, Milledge, Kearns, Pena and Dukes into that OF?
  16. If we were to sign Hudson (which we won't, but should) I'd much rather see him start at SS and platoon Fontenot/Theriot at 2B. Hudson hasn't played an out at SS in his ML career
  17. now approximately half of their roster are corner outfielders.
  18. that's not how testing works
  19. you're right, ConstableRabbit.....the AIDS pandemic in Africa is being spread by gays and drug users
  20. please no please no please no please no Still no word on it after failing to steal a win against Michigan and Wisconsin, Penn State is hitting a rough final stretch here and could play their way straight into the NIT, so I'll take any injury advantage I can get. they're staring squarely into the face of a 7-11 or 8-10 final conf. record, which is a few games short of what I was hoping for
  21. just wait until he's posting a .300 OBP and leading off
  22. On the downside, the whole AIDS thing. I'm not saying I want to be Robbie Alomar. I'm just saying I wish I were a MLB player. It's a guarantee for hot tail. Pick up a guitar. Guitar > baseball for tail. probably better for AIDS acquisition too. If you're a heterosexual male, it's pretty hard to get AIDS. LOL
  23. please no please no please no please no
  24. Bradley every time. even with Bradley's health concerns?
