    MY EYES! THE GOGGLES DO NOTHING!!!

    Preach it! I move that we officially change the name from "alternate blue jerseys" to "ill-fitting, dumpy-looking, won't stay buttoned batting practice atrocities"

    Viva Cuba!

    this is 100% a subcontractor problem. I've had the DirecTV guys at my house 3 times, and only once did they not do the job (due to not having a tall enough ladder....they did not return again). It is definitely not just a subcontractor problem. It's a directv/directech problem. Directv is setting up installation dates that they can't handle. It's not a matter of a guy showing up with the wrong stuff, it's a matter of directv trying to sell more hardware than they actually have, and putting a greater emphasis on getting new customers over keeping existing customers. I estimated I've spent about $20,000 on their service over the years, and they've given me all sorts of garbage about being an A-list customer. I've been given all sorts of rebates and crap in the past few months, but they aren't getting the job done. perhaps it's regional then. I can only speak for my own experience.

    You don't like blue jerseys from a team who's primary color is blue? The greys should be burned if you ask me. Keep the blues and the pinstripes. Why is every team suddenly going to red uniforms? Astros a few years back, Dbacks this year, Pirates.... i'm just a traditional "white at home, gray on the road" guy. I don't really like ANY colored jerseys

    I can't find a pic, but the State College Spikes had a "Ronal McDonald House" game last year and their uniforms were yellow with red and white striped sleeves for the game. They also wore pink uni's for Breast Cancer Awareness night.

    btw, I refuse to answer this question on the grounds that the games these men represent should only be watched by old men and women

    No worse than the Astros having red jersey's. Those Pirate's jerseys are almost as bad as the Cubs blue jersey's....

    Fixed Hopefully next year he gets the recognition that he's so richly earned this year - and Deng too. Both should've at least been in the discussion. have the All Star reserves been named yet?
  13. Derwood
    true, but it could be someone less liked. As I said, I'm banking on Zambrano staying for awhile
  14. Derwood
    The danger of no name, of course, is that Cedeno get traded or something and suddenly #5 is some worthless Jose Macias type player.
  15. Derwood
    They only have Small/Medium, then XXLarge to XXXXLarge (with some players). Too good a deal to pass up though. FYI, you have to scroll through the 4 pages of jerseys, but they have: Ronnie Cedeno (5) Greg Maddux (31) Mark Prior (22) Aramis Ramirez (16) Matt Murton (19) Zambrano (38) In home White. Wood's home white is $99.95, and there are some gray and blue, but I'm not interested. Tough decision, but I'm going with Zambrano. Here's hoping he gets his extension... http://www.wrigleyvillesport.com/istarimages/mp/13108!MAJ-3205294_d.jpg I'm pretty sure they're on sale since the names are now back on the uni's this year.

    wow, 4/5 of the starting rotation is younger than me. I must be past my prime. Time to trade me to the Mariners board :lol: But yes, I hope we never have another "Fred McGriff Situation" again
  17. Derwood
    it's just the shadow from his ill-fitting alternate jersey
  18. Derwood
    I'm with IMB! The stars are aligning for a closer controversy this year with Dempster having a rough go at it at times last year and the inevitable clamoring from the fan base to let Wood pitch in the 9th
  19. Derwood
    So does that mean Ohman or Cotts will start in Iowa? It seems like one is the odd man out, as I can't imagine the team breaking camp with 3 lefties in the pen
  20. Derwood
    If a tree falls in the forest....
  21. Derwood
    very nice....can they finally break out of 3rd place? It seems like they're treading water
  22. Derwood
    Does Jermaine Dye count?
  23. Derwood
    You wouldn't want to experiment with him playing QB, but the Super Bowl is as good a game as any to throw a player like Hester into an offensive play or two. William Perry endorses this message
  24. Derwood
    He had no drop off switching from aluminum to wood either. I hope he gets traded at some point so he might actually get to play 1B somewhere
  25. Derwood
    I think Eyre is a more tradable commodity than Jones. There is a glut of arms. I'd hate to see Wuertz banished to Iowa again
