    Tranny's Chirinos hate is the best thing on this site this side of bukie's chiding WSR for talking.

    I think it started earlier than that, but it seems about right. Is there an official range for the steroid era? I'd guess Late '80s w/ Conseco and McGwire were its earliest stars. the beginning of the steroid era is whenever hank aaron started snorting deer semen or w/e so he could break the hr record There have been various types of PEDs since te Olympic Games in Ancient Greece, and steroids since the 30s-40s. There are records of the Nazis using anabolic steroids to increase the strength and agression of their "super soldiers." My point is, who knows which of the heroes of the days of yore. Roger Maris for one strikes me as a guy who could very well have been on some brand of juice. His monster 1961 season in no way reflects the bulk of his career which included 2 other 30+ HR seasons which sandwiched '61. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRQZEs14Ejs

    The real losers in all this are going to be the poor people who live in the Western Suburbs who don't get to walk to games.

    Within 3-4 games of a wild card spot. If there are 3-4 teams in front of us, I don't think so. I think we need to be within a game for us to truly go for it.

    That '05 Opening Day was shaping up to be such a great day...

    I eagerly anticipate Rose's return in 2015.

    Assuming those that are slotted for the first round end up leaving (Zeller, Olapido, Burke, GRIII, among others who could declare), could you make the argument that Iowa could be the preseason favorite for the big ten, or at least third behind OSU and MSU? They looked awfully good last night and look to have figured out how to close teams. I had no idea how many close losses they had during the B1G season. No. Just no. Iowa's looked awfully good playing other teams who also weren't good enough to make the tournament.

    It's ok, you're just a caveman, these tiny letters in this magic box confound you.

    THANKS AGAIN THEO

    So, Houston announcer, what you're telling me, is that this perfect game through 8 with 14 Ks is his best MLB performance? Thanks.

    Check your cable's MLB package. (Thanks Rocket!)

    Uhhhh, pretty sure the game is going to "get to the 8th" there Matt

    I don't know, I've turned my head away and tapped blindly on my phone until it's deleted every time.

    I'm surprised Soriano doesn't beat the [expletive] out of him.

    Bud Selig being happy with a team's ownership tells me nothing. It's his goal for MLB teams to not spend money.

    There weren't many other locks to be on the active roster(as much as a pitcher can be) through the midway point of the season. Would Nate Schierholtz really have been that much better?

    Did nobody mention Tubby Smith to Texas Tech? Congrats to Old Style.

    We're gonna be a juggernaut in 2021

    According to Illinois Scout Board, the boosters at FGCU were working hard to ensure his salary would be doubled at FGCU. His salary was ~153K

    Goodwon has declared for the draft. WCS is coming back as is Wiltjer at this point. No word on Noel or Poythress. Noel will surely declare and go top 3, probably 1st. Poythress seems likely to go as well... Will Derek Willis make it to campus? Or will he see the writing on the wall and go somewhere else? Derek Willis's father comes down with malaria.

    You're forgetting to figure in his +90 UZR

    If Mark Prior didn't supernova do you think he'd have been throwing up 12 WAR seasons with regularity?
  24. SouthSideRyan
    I dont know you (and David) were being pretty [expletive] dense when you claimed hypocrisy on me for taking into account contract situation because I don't agree with being intentionally bad for 3 seasons.
  25. SouthSideRyan
    Back this up, what a horseshit [expletive] comment. Sorry, I don't have Bryce's WAR from his AAU ball. When a player is drafted as a ready-made product, I don't expect them to be on the same curve as your standard prospect.
