  1. Oh jeez, the cool police has determined that FJM is no longer cool. I knew it would happen sooner or later.
  2. I like it because you have to balance Starters, MRs and Closers. It is a dumb stat though, but I enjoy playing with it.
  3. My first draft of the year. I think I went way to much on potential and younger players for the most part. 10 teams R, SB, HR, RBI, OBP, OPS - W, SV, ERA, WHIP, K, HLD C - Saltalamaccia 1B - Hafner 2B - Phillips SS - Reyes 3B - Braun OF - Markakis OF - Hart OF - A. Jones CI - Youkilis MI - K. Johnson UTIL - T. Glaus UTIL - K. Fukudome BN - Adam Jones BN - Maybin (yeah I know I went for the unprovens way too early, but I'm a believer in over 50% of your final team will be created in season) SP - Bedard SP - Lincecum RP - Wagner RP - Corpas P - Oswalt P - Sheets P - J. Chamberlain P - Gregg BN - Howry BN - Bailey BN - Fuentes
  4. This thread and the whole concept behind it makes me laugh. Steal third? HAHAHAHA
  5. http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=141101&src=152 is the article http://www.firejoemorgan.com/2008/02/painting-by-numbers.html is the FJM piece They are more or less ripping on Theriot's quote more than Bruce's writing.
  6. http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports_hardball/2008/02/cubs-reliever-i.html Bizzare
  7. Appreciate the news, but you have like 6 topics out there with things you've seen and heard yet you make no mention of where you heard the info. Can you provide a link or source? Thanks do you think i lie? No, I would just like to read more about Oswalt throwing a knuckle than "well supposedly"

  9. Poor guy, hope he's alright. But this goes to show you that having a player like Roberts to provide us depth would only help the team greatly. If DeRosa had a heart condition or even injury and missed extended time, our new starting 2B right now would be Mike Fontenot or Alex Cintron.
  10. After seeing yesterday's three team 11 player Bulls trade go through in like 45 minutes I have no idea why this has to take over 3 months to complete.
  11. So are Bonds and Clemens going to share a jail cell?
  12. I am getting the same errors i was getting for the Rockies World Series, namely that it wont refresh
  13. I am going to be pissed if the fans in line get to snatch up all the opening day tickets because the stupid Cobs ticket system broke.
  14. I don't know what you're talking about, I have tickets to 9 games already :)
  15. I've gotten home opener tickets easily the last 4 years, so I'm not worried. That's all I'm looking for.
  16. Mulleted fans?
  17. Jock Jones running around the clubhouse in goggles?? Just kidding, I'll take a giant LEAP and guess which one your talking about.
  18. Wasn't Berrian caught giving up on routes that he wasn't the intended receiver a few times last year too? I seem to remember something like that happening in the Redskins game and he was picked apart by the announcers.

  20. Why would anyone hate this? It's the start of a new era of ballparks. I think just about everyone is sick of the old standard ballpark design. The last 2 ballparks with that were built like this, Busch Stadium III and Nationals Park look really bland and boring to me. Much like The Cell was the last of its kind, Nationals park (or maybe Chase Field) will be the last of their kind. The TB park is fresh and daring, I really like it. Kinda weird that its only being built for 35,000 though. Some of the other renderings from inside the park almost make it look like a minor league park.
  21. Gotta love when one team's 5th starter and another team's over the hill below league average first baseman start a war of words
  22. Baltimore Sun I don't know if I want a player whose got kidney stone issues on the team. What if he misses a key AB in the playoffs because he's off passing a kidney stone? :)
  23. I wouldn't mind the blue jerseys back for (like they said) SELECT games. In 2005-2006 they wore the blue jerseys more than they wore the home/roads. If they wore the blues 20 times a year, I'd actualy like them.
