    TOUCHDOWN UCLA!!!!!!!!!! Following an OU fumble and muffed punt at their own 20. 7-7 with 5:21 to go in the first quarter in Pasadena...
  2. CaliforniaRaisin
    Jaxx strand some more.
  3. CaliforniaRaisin
    Carlos Marmol, Carlos Zambrano, same grab the ball with the barehand thing.
  4. CaliforniaRaisin
    TD Oklahoma, 56-yard run on a reverse.
  5. CaliforniaRaisin
    SDSU up 6-0 early on Ohio State. Justin Medlock misses the 41-yard FG for UCLA, still 0-0 in Pasadena. :(

    UCLA's best WR, Junior Taylor hurts himself pretty badly after making a nice first down catch in the first 15 seconds of the game. It looked like a nasty little knee injury, I don't think he's coming back today. :(

    Ugh, Tony Abreu seems deserving of the hype he gets on D. Video looks good. Ron, you sound good.
  8. CaliforniaRaisin
    Thanks.

    RHP Carlos Marmol (WT: 3-4, 3.65 ERA; Season: 9-5, 3.39 ERA) vs. RHP Justin Orenduff (10-5, 3.20 ERA)
  10. CaliforniaRaisin
    Other potential starters to consider: SS Joe Simokaitis - I think he needs to repeat IF Brandon Taylor 3B Russ Canzler - I'd guess he goes to Boise, though RHP Justin Berg RHP Matt Avery RHP Scott Taylor LHP Todd Blackford

    Nice pics, Fred. I love the Pujols shirt - never seen it before; it got a laugh out of my mom and me. CubmanPi wasn't there?
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    Jaxx lose. :( Up to Marmol tomorrow.

    You're kidding. A's fans who hate Giants fans? I didn't know they existed! :o (Ever A's fan I know has at least a bit of Giants fan in them [and vice versa]). I agree, but I know a bunch of Dodger fans that absolutely loath the Giants. But I guess that's a given. Of course. But again, I don't know too many Dodgers fans who really hate Angels fans and vice versa. The most I have noticed is some Dodgers fans are offended that the Angels are now an "LA" team and not "Anaheim." The animosity and intensity of inter-city rivalries like the White Sox-Cubs and Mets-Yankees are pretty foreign in the two big metro areas of California.

    Ouch for Atlanta: right as Hampton's contract bumps up, he might be slated for Tommy John surgery.
  15. CaliforniaRaisin
    Well, I hope it remains something not too serious - the Cubs have misdiagnosed/made minor league injuries seem less serious than they were (and you mentioned a few examples of that already). I worry about Billy Petrick in a similar manner, since his labrum injury wasn't considered that serious and they expect him back on the mound by the middle of spring training.

    Over the past few years, it hasn't just been Prior with this problem - I've noticed it with Clement, Maddux, Wood and recently with Rusch. It seems like Prior recently has taken the cake with the early inning problems, though.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    I hope so. Bring it on, IMB! :) Mind you, most of LA is hyping this game up to be UCLA's second biggest game of the year, especially given the way the offense has succeeded the past two games (against far inferior opponents compared to OU). If UCLA loses this game, I think it's the beginning of the end for Karl Dorrell.
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    Haha, I'm cool - I could tell diffusion was British over a month ago given the way he spelled certain words. Plus he told everyone he was British a few days ago in a minor league thread.

    Liriano :D Heh, that's what I was thinking. Meh, just say no to Torii, especially at his salary and how much it will cost to acquire him.
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    He was held back at the start of the season because of the finger, which he reaggravated in the AFL. He missed approximately 1-2 weeks at the beginning of the season (he was exepected to miss about a month of the season;made his season debut on 4/16), before starting the year in Daytona. I don't know much about the injury this year. At first, it was announced that he was missing starts because of a strained muscle in the shoulder. Not sure what it is now, but when ITI said he'd be out for the season in late August, they said it wasn't that serious.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Is he even with the Cubs anymore? I remember hearing a little something about him during ST but I don't remember anything after that. You and Raw might be the only people left on his bandwagon. He was in Mesa this past year, rehabbing, before he had another shoulder surgery and was shut down again.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    I hope so, now that my computer is fixed! Are you going to Jackson?

    RHP Ricky Nolasco (14-3, 2.89 ERA) vs. William Juarez (6-5, 4.59 ERA) Playoffs Stats: Nolasco (1-0, 0.00 ERA, 8 IP) vs. Juarez (1-0, 0.00 ERA, 9 IP)

    fleeting moments. fleeting moments.... Given how dominant he was the last 5-6 starts last year makes me think it was more than just a fleeting moment. And then there were 2 months in 2005, after which he hasn't been the same since a near-career-threatening injury. That's not my definition of fleeting.
