    If I was older than 1.5 years old, '85 probably would've ripped my heart out worse than any other year.

    You realize Livan hasn't been fine in years? What are you talking about? He's pitched over 200 innings just about every year of his career. Just because he sucks now doesn't mean that his excessive innings are why. When would you consider Livan to have been "fine"? Livan's velocity fell off a cliff at a very young age. It's usually attributed to overwork.

    Tommy Lasorda used to eat 100 hot dogs prior to his games!!

    Kobe also wanted Bynum traded, and publically ripped him. Good times.

    Hahahaha

    I just had to highlite that because after Santo, Quisenberry is my pet "veterans committee really should put that guy in the HoF" candidate. He had a 5-year run in KC that was just unbelievable. Mine's gonna wind up being Tim Raines and Alan Trammel.

    Yep, I've never done the shuttle, but still, take the el.

    Honestly, top of my head, Lee probably doesn't deserve to be an all star.

    Murton is absolutely Fukudome light. But that's where you pay the premium to upgrade from above average to good, or good to great.

    Doubt it, he works in the mail room. I know you are being a smartass but I also know that Roast will know exactly who I am talking about. Cause he works at Wrigley.
  11. SouthSideRyan
    Shoulda heard what Michael Richards was saying about you.

    If Geovany Soto wore eyeliner, I'd wear eyeliner. I'm putting it on right now just in case.

    MLB teams have unlimited growth because they aren't tied to league-wide media contracts.

    He started 4 for 10 though, he's got a spot the rest of the year! I liked how there were 2 better options sitting on the bench than Johnson and Hoffpauir. That was fun.
  15. SouthSideRyan
    In a vaccuum, the Reds chose the worst of the 3 options to have on the big league roster(Patterson, Hatteberg, Phillips) Even with Dusty, keeping Hatteberg was the better option.

    Sammy could still be a good lefty masher for most teams, but neither side would have it.
  17. SouthSideRyan
    I'm way too excited about that. They pretty much nailed the infield(while horribly butchering the OF) Nice work fans. Keep up the Soto love everyone.
  18. SouthSideRyan
    Sutcliffe will be singing the stretch. I get the feeling he won't quite fill Lasorda's shoes. You kidding me? He's like the son he never had!
  19. SouthSideRyan
    Please explain how Sosa's last contract was a bad idea. You will never get an answer. Sure he will. The answer is that Soriano isn't a good leadoff man.
  20. SouthSideRyan
    WHICH IS A TERRIBLE, INEXCUSABLE SHAME!!!!!! /tommy lasorda ALTHOUGH IT COULD BE WORSE HE COULD BE GAY!!! /tommy lasorda

    The amoutn of marginal out fly balls out to LF in the 9th inning are not worth the potential of losing his bat when Reed Johnson/Edmonds is the replacement.
  22. SouthSideRyan
    I've liked Gracey the few times I've heard him broadcasting. Me too. Mark Grace did too. I really hope the stench of the end of Brenly's Diamondback career is still hanging over him, cause I really fear what would be in line to replace him.

    I didn't post that because you were "bashing" Rich Hill. I posted it because what you wrote was inaccurate. Rich wasn't much more likely to melt down and give up HR after HR than Z was. Rich wasn't just comparable to Z heading into this season, he had put up better #s than him the prior season and a half. Then they dicked with his mechanics. Then he lost his control. Then he was demoted. Then he was called a head case. Then Jason Marquis kept starting. As far as Rich's walks hurting his ability to go deep in ballgames, he averaged a touch over 6 innings per start last year, 2nd on the team to only Zambrano who finished 5th in the NL in innings pitched, and Z only threw a touch less than 1/3 of an inning more per start. As far as sitting back and enjoying the ride, I've certainly enjoyed this season so far, but no team is perfect, and every team should always be striving for perfection, so as long as there are obvious imperfections with the team, they're going to be pointed out. Trust me we're all watching and enjoying, we just want to enjoy it more and longer.

    Personally, I'd like to know what was behind the ****.
  25. SouthSideRyan
    And here I thought there was at least one ND guy people didn't hate. He's the ND guy I hate. Although I do think Brey is overrated. And man, I hated Chris Thomas post-freshman year. Oh, and Grant Johnson. But those aren't really the same types of hate.
