    That's why he can't get my vote. To me, it's akin to being deformed, which is way different than being ugly. Having a deformity is cheating in an ugly competition. Now Mossi, that's good old-fashioned ugly. He doesn't need a second head growing out of his face to be jaw-droppingly hideous. He's just suiting up and coming correct with a classic, triple-fugly mug. Believe me, had I heard of Mossi prior to making this poll, he would have been the #1 entry. I voted for Gaetti. No votes for Zane or Weathers?

    The off season has barely begun and you jerks are getting my hopes up already. :lol:

    I voted Pierre, since Neifi will be our starting SS and Hendry won't acquire 2 leadoff hitters

    I second that. After I saw his pic, I didn't even need to look at the others, my mind was made up. And you know what? that's not nearly as scary as he looks up close. They only use non-hd cameras to film him. Ypu want to say "Dude, you make big league money now. Maybe you should get that growth looked at"

    I didn't realize the Padres had signed Juan Gonzalez...
  7. Derwood
    The line on this game just went from 13 to 2 1/2, wuth oddsmakers citing "guaranteed low team morale"

    EDIT: Sorry, didn't look in Rivalries...thought this would be front page news...

    We get it, we get it, we're "all not that hot." So to balance out the Hottest Chick poll a little, I offer the "Ugliest Baseball Player" Poll. Vote now so we can see who, in God's great game of Genetics Hold 'Em, was dealt a 7-2 off suit.

    No option for Arli$$?

    When you have an endless pool of minor league talent to fill your lineup holes with, it doesn't take a genius to win. His postseason managing, however, is atrocius. I can accept Guillen more, simply because he really made no managerial mistakes the entire post season. In the NL, I might have considered Frank Robinson or Ned Yost. In the AL, Mike Scoscia (sp?) or Eric Wedge.

    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=2218718 Wrong and also wrong
  15. Derwood
    McGee and John Candelaria were the missing links. Rivaled by Jon Lieber, Gary Gaetti and Zane Smith But I'll stop threadjacking this into another "Ugliest Ballplayer" discussioon
  16. Derwood
    That would be much better. I would be willing to pay $3-$5 a game if I can just watch them when I want/when I can instead of shelling out $150 for EI and missing half the games
  17. Derwood
    The NFL channel has everything but actual games

    Hasta mañana Nomar!

    Not anymore. Overpaying to bring back two players who sucked butt last year is asinine. A competent GM would have sent them a Christmas ham and wished them well in their pursuit of employment elsewhere

    I liked baseball a lot when I was in elementary school, especially when I lived in Racine in '81 and '82 (Robin Yount's Brewers went to the WS) I fell out of it while I grew up in State College, mostly because College Football is the big thing here and my friends all hated baseball I moved to Chicago in '92 for college, and at that time, Cubs games were a fairly cheap form of entertainment, and tickets were plentiful day-of-game. Plus, I started playin in sim leagues with fellow dorm-dwellers, which really gets you into stats and players. i've been a fan ever since

    quick, find me 3 other "backup" infielders making $2.5 mil/year And Dusty will insure this "backup" gets 500 plate appearances
  22. Derwood
    I see that the systematic rebuilding of a 79 win team has taken another step forward :roll:

    The kid next year is Anthony Morelli, a highly touted recruit who had verbally comitted to Pitt but then came to PSU instead. Paterno stupidly wasted a year on him by bringing him into a meaningless game last year, so he'll be a Junior in 2006. Still, that's 2 years with him and the freshman receiving corps (Williams, Butler, King). He's much more of a drop back, pocket passer. Robinson is a poor man's Vince Young/Marcus Vick, while Morelli is much more of a Peyton Manning style passer (and if he's 5% as good as Manning, we'll be in good shape)
  25. Derwood
    Those were two crappy teams that played that day. I never would have believed that we'd likely finish with a Big Ten record above .500 and Penn State would be talking BCS. Had PSU lost that game (to NU) they probably would've finished 7-4 or 6-5. I really believe that
