  1. Alright France, time to aim for 450
  2. After watching this series this weekend, I'd debate that "good manager" part. his team has the best record in baseball, obviously he is doing something right Also known as: having good players on your team
  3. man, another gem from Wynalda "Peter Crouch is skinny" [long pause]
  4. What is the story behind Ronaldo's lack of endurance? I don't think it's a lack of endurance, I think it's more of the fact that he's done absolutely nothing on the field in the Cup so far.
  5. iirc, blanco usually catches prior anyway. This is the 3rd game in a row though.
  6. Lalas on Ronaldo: "That's the last time I'm sticking up for that...bloated waste of space."
  7. Can the rhetoric. As long as Walker is in this blue funk of his, he's not the best player. 05/31 - 06/17 AB R H 2B 3B HR TB RBI BB SO BA OBP SLG OPS Walker 56 5 10 1 0 0 11 3 5 3 0.179 0.246 0.196 0.442 You betting that today is the day that Walker will snap out of it ?? I'll take some of that action. Seriously Fred? You'd rather Womack or Neifi play because Walker is having a poor 2 week stretch?
  8. Well that settles it. If the US advances they'll get Brazil.
  9. Crap, Adriano with a goal in the 49th minute
  10. In tangentially related US news, the Socceroos are in a scoreless tie with Brazil at the half. If they can manage even a tie, they have a leg up going into the final game in goal differential. Since there's no chance of the US winning our group, it would be huge if Australia managed to win their group.
  11. This is how I felt too. Add in the fact that Buffon was there and just didn't make the save, and considering we had already been robbed of two players, I think we deserved that goal.
  12. Did Japan just miss a wide open chance? The clock on Univision is only at 6 minutes, but the TV schedule only has it going until the next hour(10 AM here)
  13. Why in the world am I seeing infomercials instead of Japan-Croatia? EDIT: Thank you Univision.
  14. Also, is there any doubt now that this is the Group of Death?
  15. I've never had an ingrown toenail, but I went with that.
  16. I completely agree with what you said, and it was very well said. But... While the win is a stat to be considered last, I do think it can have something to say about a pitcher's competitiveness in certain situations that probably can't be derived from other numbers. Maybe a metric for runners allowed and runs allowed with a 1-run lead, 2-run lead, 1-run deficit and 2-run deficit. Just looking at the overall number of wins may not be so telling, but digging deeper can reveal a pitcher's consistent ability to keep his team close even on days when he might not have his best stuff. But then you're not talking about Wins, you're looking beyond them to find a measure of a player's aptitude, just like when you look at other metrics like you mentioned in the part of the post I snipped.
  17. Why exactly do we want Langerhans?
  18. The worst part now is that we have to root for these dirtbags on Thursday in order to get us through.
  19. That'll do it. We got hosed.
  20. LOL at the fans making fun of the corner taker for diving
  21. Cherundolo is having a great game
