That's good stuff, thanks Tim. Piniella's comment about Soto looking "like a jockey" was hilarious.

Theriot is bringing my level of joy down right now. Perhaps we should get rid of him. -
Bah, this wouldn't have even come close to getting $60 out of my pocket anyway. This was going to be the great fight of our age? Sad, sad state of affairs. Boxing has turned to crap.

you mean like when Derrek Lee put up similar ridiculous numbers in 05? that was 5 years ago..i'm talking about now (and more specifically, that sexy OBP). pretty wild the hawk won MVP over him despite lower SLG and over 100 fewer BB I'm glad he did.

Looks good in that video. I'm glad.

Good question, I've been asking myself the same thing. I'm not even sure they know what they are up to. A very sad and scary statement, but unfortunately one that I think is true. Whether we like it or not, we are really hamstrung here. Who wants to come in with a lame duck head coach? Probably not anyone with a good name. Unless they think that they can benefit by this and eventually become the next head coach. But even that's a double edged=sword. because if they truly make a difference, then it's likely all they're doing is saving Lovie's job for him. Hiring retreads or hiring a little known guy who we hope can turn things around offensively is about the only options we have right now. I am resigned to the fact that 2010 is going to suck and hope that it's enough to get Angelo, Lovie, and the rest of the staff out of here. If this IS the case, then I wouldn't be disappointed if we aren't all that active in free agency THIS year, with the intention of giving the new guys in 2011 alot of money to work with, so a complete overhaul can be done, if needed...... The even scarier part for me is that they could actually win a couple more games next year. Football is a funny business -- the ball bounces a few times your way, bingo: you win. And I wouldn't put it past these guys to take a 9-7 one-and-done season as a sign of progress and keep people around for even longer.

Yeah, the Sosa hate isn't related to PED's, at least not to a significant degree. Sosa was a bit of an ass, but there was an effort to smear him at the end. Even if there hadn't been it's stupid. The guy was pretty much the only reason to tune into or attend a Cubs game for years, much the same as McGwire was for the Cardinals. I have no ill will for Sammy Sosa at all. The opposite, in fact. Me either.

Yankees' Budget?

Yeah. No telling how much cash they can squeeze out of that city. -

http://www.theglobeandmail.com/sports/jays-gm-sticks-to-his-guns/article1434416/Take it for what it's worth. Hopefully it's true, just not for the $10-12m he wants a year. Im done taking stock in any of those types of statements. If there was any truth to those types of things, Brian Roberts, Jake Peavy, and Mike Cameron would all be Cubs by now. I'd like it to be true (for less than what he wants), but yeah it's just some guy writing stuff. -

Agreed after the first period. I'll take a win in Detroit any day though. Detroit never lead in the game. It was a road game against a divisional rival. That's hardly "stealing one.". It's winning a tough road game in hostile territory. so? they outplayed us and were the better team for most of the game. and i hardly made up the term "stealing one" (even though i never said "stealing one"). No you didn't. But your defintion of it is certainly different than mine.

That's it, the Chargers' journey to chokesville is complete. Jets defense is pretty damn good though.

Interesting situation here

Choketastic

You cannot be serious. Does Jackson have a job lined up with the Jets or something?

At least I don't have to see the Pillsbury Doughboy for another 8 months.

I prayed to Jerry Jones for salvation; prayed for justice. And all I got was a KICK IN THE NUTS.

Just a classic misunderstanding. Sorry. It's funny because I never saw the media comments on Romo.

It's winning a tough road game in hostile territory. well that's true, but what he said was still true (although i would never complain about a road win, no matter how much we get outplayed). "stealing one" refers to a game that you get outplayed in yet win, which was the case today. you get outplayed like that and you don't usually come away with a win. that's why we stole one. I guess I just don't find it unusual to get outplayed a little on the road.

It was supposed to be humorous, pre-game banter. But thanks mr perfect. huh? i was referring to the way the media was acting like a changed man after last week. i wasn't referring to anything on this board. lol I used those exact words. Except I hate the Cowboys and Romo -- I was just half-hoping the dolt would show up today to beat [expletive] Favre.

i dunno, this game has been pretty fun. I have no dog in this fight, so a generally non-competitive game = BORING I'm with you. Other than GB/AZ, this playoff season has been one of the least entertaining I can remember. Hopefully next week picks up. Now I'm rooting for SD because the Jets will just provide more boredom next week if they pull an upset. Let's just get the few actual good teams together and see if we can salvage this.

There's a pulse for Dallas, but it is very weak.
