    Isn't Steve Smith pretty similar? Carolina still worries me if we were to meet them in the playoffs. not really. boldin is about 4 inches taller and about 40 pounds heavier. the announcers had it right on, he's a lot like sterling sharpe used to be, only faster. steve smith is a guy that uses his elusiveness to find the holes in the defense. boldin will run right up to the DB, use his body to seal the defensive player off, catch the ball, break a tackle and run by everyone else. guys like plaxico burress, moose, keyshawn johnson, and randy moss all are big, but don't have the bulk, agility, or strength of an anquan boldin. Fair enough...doesn't make me less afraid of Smith though... :P Sulley is right, they're two different players. You're right, both of them can torch the Bears, especially in the cover two.

    I'd prefer he get another (at least) half season at Iowa with a stopgap like Dave Roberts or Kenny Lofton with the Cubs next season. But I'd rather the Cubs play Pie at the big league level than go after an overpriced veteran option in CF. He'd certainly take his lumps in his first few seasons, especially with his poor plate discipline. His SBs are down because he's really not that great a base stealer.

    I have to go with The Life of Brian as the #1 Monty Python. Gotta agree with Vance on this one. It's funny how over here that movie is almost universally agreed upon to be the best Python film, while in the UK the Life of Brian is the #1 Python film. Them Brits don't know a thing about humor. :D

    What have you got against the Tigers? I abhor the city of Detroit.

    Oh good. The teams I hate the most in each league in the World Series.

    C'mon Beltran.

    You knew he was going to rip a breaking ball off right there.

    I woulda hurt something if Endy was picked off.
  15. CaliforniaRaisin
    This is a sure DP waiting to happen.
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    I thought he couldn't generate power? Yay Endy.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Eric Chavez time....err...Endy Chavez time.

    Hopefully ND sucks as much on Saturday as this former ND pitcher.
  19. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yeah. Unimpressed with Heilman this inning.

    Yadier Molina 2-run HR.

    Yadier Freaking Molina.

    Not bad, a few gusts to around 30 mph, much worse in the mountains (I'm afriad of fires up there). Temps in the 80s this afternoon, though. Crap, Rolen.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    Heilman is about to lose Rolen.

    90 mph straight line winds (Santa Anas) did it in 2003. Flooding rains in El Nino did it once in 1997 and once in 2005.

    But your internet/NSBB is working. :D
