  1. Skip Bayless probably had multiple orgasms watching this.
  2. I don't remember the earlier posts in this thread, but just in case this hasn't been covered yet, I would just like to say: Awesome. This guy needs to be in the majors yesterday. Any chance he'll get traded to the Cardinals? Oh my God I hope so. His cockiness would surely cause a disruption in the clubhouse. I don't want winners; I want choir boys.
  3. like washington dc? You can swim across a river into Virginia from DC ergo it's not in the Northeast. It's south of the Mason-Dixon. Sometimes referred to as the Mid-Atlantic region.
  4. Yes, allegedly. That's what makes the pitcher in question a lunatic. Before popping off about throwing at someone's [expletive] head, you should probably use some common sense. But it's not "allegedly" in the White Sox' mind. They know what they saw and are 100% convinced it's happening. This "lunatic" you speak of confronted the player verbally, and told him to cut it out or else. What would have been the common-sense response? To not say anything at all. It's beyond ridiculous that a Man In White could pick up the signals from 400 feet away.
  5. well this player isn't a lunatic or anything. Yeah since throwing at a batter to settle a grudge would be totally unheard of. I'm confused. What grudge do they have? Um, they're stealing signs (allegedly). Yes, allegedly. That's what makes the pitcher in question a lunatic. Before popping off about throwing at someone's [expletive] head, you should probably use some common sense.

  7. I got really excited when I saw the trailer in theaters because I was sure I was the only person who knew the story.
  8. Good point.
  9. Evidently they are. Just announced they'll be calling Giants/Skins and Albert and Co. will get Bears/Falcons. Sam Rosen continues his Panthers beat reporting out in Arizona. Not really a big deal, but if Buck-Aikman is the top announcing team, why are they calling a [expletive] Redskins game?
  10. America's top sports columnist is unleashing his venom on Tim Tebow: http://www.willistonherald.com/articles/2011/08/10/opinion/columnists/doc4e42a4ec7b8ed151530958.txt
  11. Tom Tango thinks it's bunk. http://www.insidethebook.com/ee/index.php/site/article/stealing_signs_in_toronto/
  12. Skip Bayless gave a passionate defense of Tebow this morning and even started yelling.
  13. Does anyone trust B-Ref's calculation of defensive WAR? Because right now Carlos Lee (that Carlos Lee) has been worth 1.7 wins on defense and leads the NL. That just doesn't seem right.
  14. I was leaning towards picking them for the Giants-Skins, but honestly, with Atlanta-Chicago, how could they possibly send their "A-team" to D.C.? Surely they wouldn't right? Right?
  15. Sam Rosen: Voice of the San Francisco 49ers Carolina Panthers. I watched the first few Panthers games last year and I'm pretty sure Rosen did about 4 of them. Oh god you're right. That's bleak. Here's how I think it will shake out in Week 1: Atlanta/Chicago: Buck-Aikman Philly/St. Louis: Brennaman-Billick Detroit/Tampa: Stockton-Lynch NY/Washington: Albert-Johnston Seattle/SF: Myers-Ryan Carolina/Arizona: Pitts-Mora

  17. I thought he admitted that they did throw at Braun.
  18. Who am I to argue perspective with a guy who thinks Todd Wellemeyer's 377.2 innings of 98 ERA+ pitching represents an organizational nadir. Speaking of going over-the-top...
  19. I can keep up with the team and point out their follies without watching them. Wow. You must be tons of fun. Yeah. We should just sit back and say Go Team without using any critical thinking. Or maybe try to enjoy your team being competitive. I'm sure it sucks having only won the NL pennant twice in the last 7 seasons, but bitching to Cubs fans about the woeful mismanagement of the Cardinals' personnel is kind of like showing up to a funeral and complaining about the weather. I don't think it's on that level.
  20. I can keep up with the team and point out their follies without watching them. Wow. You must be tons of fun. I guess.
  21. I can keep up with the team and point out their follies without watching them.
  22. Just wanted to note to nobody in particular that the hope and savior of the St. Louis center field has a .710 OPS over the past two months. That's a guy you sacrifice the better talent for, especially when you have no shot of getting into the NLCS.
  23. Twitter rumors saying that he is transfering to Wichita St (yay), if true he will most likely backup this year but step in to a starting role for his senior year. Sounds like a good deal if he can stay out of trouble. Sounds like Haith let you guys have one.
  24. We haven't won a pennant in 60 plus years. Unreal you'd have this attitude on this board. I refuse to support incompetence and the sacrifice of long-term success so that the whims of a petulant, 67-year-old crybaby are met. I am tired of seeing otherwise valuable pieces reduced to [expletive] because La Russa can't keep his [expletive] mouth shut. I am tired of seeing an organization that bows to someone who feels the need to swing their dick around in the media and show everyone how much smarter he is when they have reached the playoffs once in the past four seasons. I'm tired of it. Until they dump the jackass I'm sitting out.
