    Yes, but he has re-earned Paterno's respect (slowly but surely)

    People still pay Pokey to pay baseball? Hell you say!

    I am never shocked when a player from one of the Big 3 Florida schools is arrested for anything. You'd prefer to see a player from Club Med U get arrested, but any little bit helps for PSU I guess.

    Honda all the way. My first car was a '90 Honda CRX. Bought it used with 86,000 miles on it, drove it till it had well over 110,000, then sold it when a 2-seater was no longer advantageous (best mileage ever though, and you could park it anywhere on Chicago streets) Then bought a used Chevy Cavalier that was the biggest nightmare of all time. I hated that car for the entire 18 months I owned it and I hope it's burning in hell right now. Then bought a brand new 2003 Honda CRV and I love it. Gas mileage is pretty good for a small-sized SUV (around 22-23 mpg) and it's plenty big enough for the family of 4 plus groceries. Plus, Honda's have great resale value and the engines go forever.

    I voted Astros, because no Clemens, Bagwell is old and busted, Biggio is like 80, Ensberg won't repeat those numbers, and Lance "Glass Jaw" Berkman can't stay healthy. But it's a photo finish...

    Furcal has never had 150 RBI in a season Furcal has never won an MVP award Furcal accepted the Dodger's deal without allowing the Cubs to counter.

    Looks like Prior is indeed on the table. http://insider.espn.go.com/mlb/features/rumors Who ever thought Prior would need to be "packaged" in a deal? How far we've fallen... :cry:

    Um.... Zito: 86-53, 3.50 ERA, 1.22 WHIP, 461 BB, 945 K's, 1209 IP Williams: 23-22, 3.92 ERA, 1.31 WHIP, 142 BB, 238 K's, 383 IP I'd say yes, Zito is better. That said, Jerome is 3 years younger and nearly $5.5 million cheaper (and not a free agent next year)

    No, but I say "Merry Ash Wednesday" on Secretary Day.

    wha?

    Did Joe Morgan take over Goose's body there for a minute? Building ballparks with big dimensions sounds nice and all, but good luck signing any bigtime hitters to your team. Eventually, they all bend to the free agents' wills, as we saw with the fences in Detroit and US Cellular being brought in, and the threat of the same at PetCo.

    And Macias is hitting .375... 3 for 8, huh?

    Do you say, "Q-tip" instead of cotton swab or "Kleenex" instead of tissue? Big difference. A q-tip is a q-tip. It doesn't matter what brand, same with a kleenex. A coke, pepsi, sprite, dr. pepper, mountain dew, etc are all very different. what? Q-tip is a brand name and so is Kleenex. You can get Scott's tissues and you can get CVS brand cotton swabs. There is no difference. What's the difference between Q-tips and generic cotton swabs? Between Kleenex and Puffs? Very little. Now what's the difference between Coke and Mountain Dew? There is no difference in Georgia. Everything is a coke. there is pepsi coke, moutain dew coke, well you get the point. Proving (once again) that Georgians are morans

    Someday I'll have a job again and $5/month won't seem like such a big deal :oops:

    right, and with pierre in CF and potentially Wilson or Encarnacio in RF, you're talking 50 HR total most likely. I just can't project Murton into the 20+ range until he gets a full year under his beltt I hope I'm wrong of course
  25. Derwood
    i don't assume he will, i fear what will happen if he does. two different things
