Well I could say something right now but N&G would get upset because it's melodramatic.
-
That's a lot of spin. They were in the NFC Championship game. Somehow that's a joke?
-
Just institute replay and we don't have to worry about demonizing refs. But no, instead lets allow them to be lambasted and tortured over every bad call. I posted an article awhile back on the ref who blew that no-hitter call. He's basically living a life in hell now. Great system, thanks Selig.

Sorry :)

General 2011 Other Games Thread
Soul replied to soccer10k's topic in Fred Hornkohl Game Thread Forum
Really? In that picture it looks to me like the front part of the glove is in front, but the back part lags behind the leg. Which means the glove is on the leg. I don't know, it looks pretty conclusive to me. I don't really care though. I've given up on replay in MLB, until the Yankees are screwed again. Then suddenly the league will be magically open to talking about it again. -
Alex Linnenkohl (Oregon State) Hub Arkush said this morning that of the UDFA's, Alex is the one who he would watch. Yes, I know, it's Hub. But frankly out of 26 UDFA's I'll take any callout I can get as to who might actually stick on the team.

Sweet :)

Time for a long impaired drive over a short guardrail There's got to be some team in this league that knows how to coach him right.
-
This is so stupid. Hendry had been here for a decade of disappointment. Not two years. This organization has performed as poorly as possible given the resources spent. Soriano sucks and is overpaid today, not jus two year from now. Hendry has been horrible and keeping him is a stupid idea. People are adjusting their thought patterns to fit the idea that Hendry might just be sticking around. Wonderful.

Why must we suffer THESE IDIOTS?!?
-
OK at times. Decent DT for the rotation but certainly not special.
-
See? It doesn't just happen to the Cubs.
-
Next time, I suggest taking a gander over to these parts, where they could learn the reality before going through a months-long delusional period of thinking a player is something that he isn't.
-
The song makes me feel ill when I see Cub fans still singing to it. WE SUCK THIS YEAR. STOP SINGING, YOU LOOK LIKE IDIOTS. Thanks, I'm done.
-
I wonder what that was, exactly. I figured it was one too many injuries and he'd never get it back. Then boom -- he's back.
-
When a veteran-loaded team is at 21 games under .500 in the middle of July, he could call out a player a day. That's a stupid way to run a baseball team. Calling players out like Quade did almost never accomplishes anything, veteran or otherwise. Just cut to the chase next time and say "I'm a meatball and I want meatball things." Whatever he did, it wouldn't turn this turd into a winner. So I don't see the point of doing it. But I suppose when you're entering old age and finally getting your shot, you resort to anything when it isn't working out.
-
Right. So for Josh Hamilton, a full effort would not include diving and putting his entire season at risk......which if injured would mean he couldn't put forth *any* effort at all the rest of the season. And people just need to start understanding that kind of stuff.
-
What's the read on Burress? Just not going to be ready? I think he's just lacking in any kind of common sense. But the talent is pretty hard to ignore for a team in our position.
-
So the better a player is, the more foolish it becomes for that player to give a full effort? Do I have that right? Uh, no. It's about what people perceive to be giving a full effort, and for which players.
-
I wonder what the Cardinals are doing to Ryan to make him suck.
-
Hate to lose Manning's speed. I also like how he's made improvements over time, to the point where now it seems he's found a place on the team. But you're right, there's only so much we can offer a guy like that, who has holes in his game.
-
It's morphed into this dazed-out, wake me up when its over kind of season. I'm not really sure this season actually exists. I might wake up from it. One thing's for sure. 10 years from now the only thing I'll remember is Castro, and I'll probably mistakenly attribute what he's doing in 2011 to some other year. This year's going in the circular file as soon as I'm mentally able. And Quade's going right along with it. Let's just fast forward to the offseason, please.
-
Take a few moments sometime and think back on the last decade of Bears OLine mismanagement. BoggleBoggle
-
I don't get it either. I thought they were going to move someone else in by now, but it hasn't happened. We've been talking about the Kreutz decline for many a season now.

Thom Brennaman up for most obnixious walkoff call of the yea
Soul replied to Schwarber Fan's topic in General Baseball Talk
It's a good call, much as I don't like Brennaman. Plus, it's always loads of fun to see the Cardinals get beat late. Anyone got video of that Pirates S-A-T-U-R-D-A-Y, HEY! call? That's an example of bad walkoff fare.
