  1. 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.
  2. Why exactly do we want Langerhans?
  3. The worst part now is that we have to root for these dirtbags on Thursday in order to get us through.
  4. That'll do it. We got hosed.
  5. LOL at the fans making fun of the corner taker for diving
  6. Cherundolo is having a great game
  7. I love the way Bocanegra plays
  8. THAT'S A BLOODY SHOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  9. Beasley for Dempsey? Why not McBride?
  10. Reyna, please give the ball to someone who can shoot EDIT: Do you bring on Beasley now? With this much open field....
  11. Not that I held them in high esteem before this, but this is nonsense Does this ref work Serie A?
  12. we're getting completely boned here by this ref, he's calling all the italian dives and now this
  13. holy crap, I didn't know Maestro could shoot like that
  14. I count 4 dives in 2:20 thus far
  15. Donovan looked like he was going to kill someone during the National Anthem. I'm so pumped.
  16. i believe the lineup harkes listed was: D: dolo-gooch-pope-boca M: dempsey-mastro-reyna-donovan-convey F: mcbride that could go as a 4-4-2 or a 4-5-1. i like the defence. happy with boca and especially dempsey being in. but how the HELL do you not start johnson?! we had better win, or i think that will come back to bite bruce in the butt. yeah, I've gotta think Johnson could be a very quick sub if we aren't attacking well.
  17. Dempsey is starting today according to ABC's analysts.
