THAT'S FOR VICTOR DIAZ!!!

NSBB needs a Royal Rumble

consider it passing the mantle of utter failure from our team to theirs. it makes you feel better

christ these Mets fans are ugly. make fun of wrigley all you want, at least we have some quality tail

Ryan McDoubleClutchy to the rescue

put Howry in and go home

i'll believe this schedule when it's official. i suspect things will change a bit

Piniella is going to drink Shark's milkshake when he gets back to the dugout

NO WAY! IT WILL GO ON HIS PERMANENT RECORD!

Must be nice. yeah, sitting home and not making any money is totally worth getting to see first round playoff baseball. :banghead: you take a lot of crap for it, but if i could find a wife who was able to provide enough money for me to live the way i want to live and was willing to let me stay at home... screw it, i'd be all over that. Ditto. I'd rather be with my kids than work at most any job unless it was my dream job. There are pluses and minuses to it. The pros include being with the kids (rather than having a daycare shoulder the child raising responsibilities), the time to get things done during the day that double-income parents have to do at night or on weekends (which means more family time when the wife is home), etc. The cons are that while my wife makes enough money to pay the bills, we aren't really saving much for the future and don't have much extra money to go on vacations, concerts, sporting events and the like. I also don't have a lot of contact with other adults, which can drive you crazy after awhile. My job back in PA was great because it was part time, paid pretty decently, and gave me a nice escape from the parenting world (not to mention that it was the most fun job I've ever had). I am working on getting a job here that might provide the same level of satisfaction....

Huh? When did that happen? (The NFL thing) when ABC had it a couple of years ago ABC was still doing MNF a couple years ago, and their entire production staff is essentially run by the same people at ESPN. I don't see how that is a problem. ha ha ha, woops. You know what I was thinking of? FOX doing the BCS games in college football. Sorry, not enough coffee this morning. Ok...you had me really confused. Anyways, the point is that every sport makes terrible decisions with their broadcasting because all they can see are $$$$$. Sell the rights to the highest bidder, quality be damned. The FOX college football thing is especially terrible, as you suddenly have commentators and analysts who haven't done a college game all year covering the most important games of the season. Fan favorites like Gus Johnson, Brad Nessler and Kirk Herbstreit are blocked out of the best games, etc.

I love when I don't care that the Cubs lost. A mostly forfeit lineup vs. the Mets ace and most of the runs scored off of guys who won't sniff the postseason roster. yawn

that wasn't the worst of that year either. We then went down to Houston and blew a game when Terry Mulholland turned a routine grounder to the mound into a run-scoring error when he lobbed the ball over Grace's head at first base

I'm constantly amazed at the stupidity of the major sports when it comes to broadcasting. This "TBS gets all the first round games so they have to cram 3 games per day" thing is pretty dumb, though I think the NFL's "we're going to let a network that hasn't aired a single NFL game all year carry the Super Bowl" takes the cake

just looked at his numbers with the Dodgers. Sweet Jebus!

Hooray for injecting pointless political crap into an unrelated thread. Hooray for overreacting.

crazy it's in West Lafayette and not Indy. There's plenty of time to change that though. On one of my birthdays, my wife took me to the Duke vs. DePaul game at the United Center. Yeah, DePaul got spanked. That was the Duke team with Brand, Battier, Langdon, Avery, Maggette.....it was ugly

wasn't that game played in Milwaukee County Stadium? EDIT: Yep, so I guess those of you who were there in person were up in Milwaukee?

welcome to the GOP dream: an unregulated Free Market economy

I approve of this scheduling :cool:

more scintillating analysis from you're truly

i'll go out on a limb and guess it won't be played in West Lafayette Duke is coming to Purdue this year. color me shocked. Duke almost NEVER plays an OOC game outside of North Carolina
