  1. So when Brenly wins the series with the Brewers, do we lynchmob Len for teaching him how to manage?
  2. OkSU fans tend to get their panties in a wad when you refer to anyone from Oklahoma as "okies". It's one of those regional slurs that originated during the Great Depression. I personally don't mind it, though. I will be cheering for the bright orange clad sheep shaggers this week, though. :banghead: The sad state of Oklahoma ;-) Yea, it sucks having to share a state with fail like this. What do they pay you to go there?
  3. Edmonds has played some first, right? Was he any good? They could pair him up with Rich Aurilia. Rich Aurilia probably shouldn't be playing in the majors next year.
  4. after 100 years, yeah, its WS or bust for me. However, I would have settled for going down valiantly in the playoffs not yay, we won another division flag, vacation time. wow, you're 108 years old or whatever? that's crazy. i mean, i'm only 23, and didn't really follow the team until i was like 10, so i've got 13 years to claim. i mean, it wouldn't make sense for me to whine about the team's performance in the years before i existed, so i assume you're not doing it either. Why can't I? If the Cubs had won in 1982, the year before I was born, I would never have to grow up hearing about the team's inept past, curses, black cats, etc. If I, as a Cubs fan, have to carry the baggage of the teams past failures, I sure as hell can complain about it. Pre-2006, do you think Cardinals fans born after 1982 spent any less time ripping on Cubs fans for their historic drought because they hadn't experienced a title in their lifetime? Seriously, pretending the 100 year story is meaningless to any Cubs fan who isn't 100 years old is rather ridiculous. There's a difference between having to suffer the idiocy of mediots and opposing fan mouthbreathers and talking about "100 years of suffering"
  5. NIT unless Alex Legion immediately lights the world on fire(he won't) The team is going to be a lot better if just for regression to the mean. Last year was not a 16-17 team(or whatever it is we finished at). This year's team is a little better at best but will probably manage 19 wins just by not losing every game that's a coin flip or slightly better.
  6. You're in the middle of football season. Don't be greedy.
  7. does that mean what i think it means Probably not so espn is a liar I think BR just uses the previous year's 1 year factor. True park factors are 3 year factors and wouldn't be available til the end of '09 (I think?)
  8. sort of off of your point here but edward norton got to bang salma hayek AND kick the crap out of jared leto real american hero imo Swing and a miss. are you saying they never had sex when they were married because that would take a lot of restraint they dated, but they were never married were they? who knows all i know is i would've hit that like ray lewis THE POINT IS HE HAD SEX WITH HER AND RYAN IS WRONG AGAIN She's saving herself for marriage jerk.

  10. Somebody who'll analyze the game or talk for 5 minutes without me wanting to punch him in the face.
  11. Haha, no way. I really like that kid. I'd probably prefer him to Cheek, though Cheek is more highly rated. And the Mizzou fallout would be a delicious fringe benefit. After what Collins has done for us, we'd better not. Gotta keep the Chicago pipeline flowing. Better start recruting the junior highs then.
  12. Marquez Smith is depressing the hell out of me.
  13. (fire-breathing hatred) haha. Hey, Weber has really stepped up his recruiting. The Jerrance Howard/World Wide Wes connection is already paying dividends. Just stay out of Chicago, and we'll be real friendly-like. At least let us have Chicago.
  14. This is such bullhowry. You been sitting there waiting til my name popped up in this thread or something?
  15. Edit, I'm dumb. Stupid Ravens.
  16. Good to see Casey keeping up his torrid pace from the regular season.
  17. (fire-breathing hatred)
  18. HOLD THE MICROPHONE WITH ONE HAND VERDUCCI Also, Chip called Boston one of the classiest organizations in baseball? Now I don't know of anything especially unclassy(besides the BS Arroyo trade and Youkilis never shutting the F up), but is there anything that sets them above anyone else
  19. Wanna bet? I would for fun. I can't see how the Rays don't get better with all their minor league talent and likely the ability to spend a little more money to retain their own/improve on their club. I realize its the AL East, but the Rays have the talent without a doubt. I wouldn't bet against them making the playoffs more times than not, but to win the pennant 3 times in 6 years is really a really lofty goal to set.
  20. Darling says the ump ruled it a swinging strike?? I don't think I buy that that was the call. If so, that's probably worse than calling it a called strike.
