i hate belicheck, but i loved loved LOVED that call by him. it didn't work out, but if you're in a situation where tom brady getting you 2 yards will win you the game, you have to go for it. i applaud belicheck for going for it.

his approach that makes him strike out a lot also contributes to him walking a lot. his obp would decrease, not increase. -
omfg the bengals are for real

steve kerr doesn't get referenced in nelly furtado songs. easy choice.

It doesn't matter if it's a "tough" lefty or not. Regardless of the skills of the pitcher, if he throws with his left hand, he will get Granderson out. That includes all-star starters like the ones you mentioned, 5th starters, closers, and journeymen relievers. I'm sure a few of the more skilled left-handed peanut guys at Wrigley would probably get him out. HE IS A PLATOON PLAYER!!! Learn it, love it. is he a platoon player if he's by far our best defensive option in cf?

That's actually a good thing. It ensures a short-term deal for a team that desperately needs short-term deals. Cameron isn't going to give you stud numbers, but his physical conditioning has shown a shorter decline curve than you'd expect out of a 34+CF. i love cameron. but at some point he's going to fall off a cliff. we're probably just as well off keeping kosuke in cf without adding to the payroll. Why is it a foregone conclusion that Cameron (or any player) is going to fall off a cliff, rather than decline gradually over several seasons? Seems to me the latter would be the more common outcome, generally. it's not a foregone conclusion. but cameron's biggest assets are his defense and power, 2 things that go away quickly with age. he has good plate discipline, but his ba is so low that his obp is rarely respectable. i think the risks are too great with cameron, and i don't think he'll match the production kosuke provided last year.

I wouldn't cry. I'm not the cry in my beer, punch a hole in the wall type of sports fan. Nearly 25 years of rooting for Penn State has conditioned me to expect the team to crap the bed at least once or twice a year. don't let me down truffle

nothing personal, but i hope ohio state destroys penn state so i can see truffle and derwood cry. probably won't happen though.

Anyone who makes a big deal about anyone getting caught with weed deserves scorn, regardless of the race of the person that got caught. If you are making a big deal about the weed alone, I agree, but if getting caught puts that person's availability in peril somehow whether it be by league suspension or jail, or especially if the weed was being used before or during driving, then there's absolutely nothing wrong with laying on the criticism. my point was that the initial poster's attitude was "oh, that wacky Lincecum and his pot", where there are plenty of other players who would not be let off so easily in the same situation cowherd said something similar to that. when lincecum gets caught, it's kind of funny, but when an nba player gets caught, the nba has a weed problem.
