  1. What happened? Soto threw out lee by a mile but derosa dropped it. leading to the run Blanco, I mean
  2. I've said it before. It's getting really irritating that people keep repeating this stupid meme that things weren't against the rules since Bush I was president. It reflects horribly upon the sports journalists who covered this originally, and it's particularly annoying because the best big-exposure treatment of this in recent years seems to have been completely ignored (a 10 or so page ESPN article back around 2004) In 1991, the comish declared all illegal/controlled drugs against the rules. He specifically mentioned steroids and all controlled substances (HGH being something covered by this)
  3. ok, wallow on in your ignorance. Just please don't try to spread it around again.
  4. just wait until Clemens, Bonds, etc. aren't elected. At that point it should just be shut down They've kept Rose out for something off the field for decades. People still make the pilgrimage to Cooperstown. Trust me, they won't miss Clemens and Bonds one bit. Rose was one guy who willingly and repeatedly broke established rules in baseball. The "steroid era" players are going to keep piling up outside the door despite only a few of them being "caught" after the fact largely through heresay and innuendo for something that wasn't against the rules at the time, all in the face of how they arguably saved the game post-strike. Steroids were against the rules since you were in elementary school. Steroids were against the rules since you were in elementary school. Steroids were against the rules since you were in elementary school. Steroids were against the rules since you were in elementary school. Steroids were against the rules since you were in elementary school. How many freaking times does this need to be said? Most of the key substances of the steroid era were either banned by MLB after the fact or most of the players accused were "caught" (and I use the term VERY loosely) after the fact. No.

(ok, you might be over 25, I'm not really sure about you) Saying "steroids weren't illegal because there was no punishment" is no different from saying "Police searches without warrants are never unconstitutional"
  6. well that was tremendously disappointing
  7. When Len said "a nasty lightning strike just hit to the north" a few minutes ago, it hit a building near me, out the window next to the television. That was weird

  9. uverse has the very most annoying emergency broadcast messages in the known universe. It's ridiculous. Every few minutes you get that horrible noise blasted in your ears
  10. this is the first thunderstorm that hasn't dodged me in more than two years. It's been weird.
  11. It's not a huge storm, but they can't keep people there during a thunderstorm, can they?
  12. and you can hear frmo Len's voice that this sounds over
  13. I didn't see anything wrong with that call. As long as it's consistent. It's nowhere near the strike zone. that is a problem. Taking 5 innings to figure out where it is is complete crap
  14. Yeah.... 40% of umpires should be fired, today
  15. well that was an interesting AB, demp
  16. Bleh. Looks like it's only a problem on the HD feed. I'm watching it on SD and getting the audio problem
  17. Well, cigarettes were called "Cancer sticks" in the early 50s or earlier. It's been common knowledge longer than all but a few posters here have been alive. Aspartame has been studied for what, 40some years and been in widespread use in drinks for 25 years.
  18. if the starting rotation dies of koolaid poisoning, I'm blaming Soto
  19. If you replace Estes in 2003 with any other 5th starter from the years covered, is 2003 the frontrunner? We complain about Marquis, but he's not all that bad. If he wasn't getting $7 mil I wouldn't even care
