  1. Or know of one I could get in on or how to find one? I'd like to get in on another money league.
  2. batista with the caaaattttcccchhhhhhhh
  3. how deep was that?
  4. i just wish the crowd wasn't so dead and every time i hear a gus scream i always think of adam morrison crying
  5. [expletive] cbs ther'es an overtime game going on and theyre staying with a game with a double digit point difference
  6. He would have to change significantly for that to no longer be his ceiling. So I take it you haven't kept up much with this offseason? Putting on muscle doesn't change the fact that he's done crap in the minors and hasn't come close to showing any patience. I don't really care about media reports about what everybody does in the offseason to finally turn things around. 9 times out of 10 those efforst are meaningless. Prove it on the diamond. While Colvin was never steller in the minors, he was off to a promising start before lsoing 2008 to TJS. ??? colvin played 2008 and sucked. he has tjs after the season (during the arizona fall league)
  7. i checked cubs.com (i know, i know) and theyre allllll over colvin... wanting him to be the starter, etc. i know cubs.com is terrible, but they probably represent the most common cubs/baseball fan. even if you read one of the articles on cubs.com about colvin, the comments are saying the same thing. it's just funny because these are the same people who will want him gone after he has a bad 10 at-bats in the regular season. i think most baseball fans in general are pretty dumb when it comes to this type of stuff.
  8. you know exactly what i mean
  9. so i see that colvin is this year's spring training sensation who everybody goes crazy over for having 3 good weeks in meaningless games. micah hoffpauir, david patton, etc
  10. wtf is he doing
  11. wait, i'm confused. how many did huet let in? i thought they pulled him after the 5th but espn says he gave up 7?
  12. holy [expletive].... 8-1?!?!? we're losing 8-1 to the blue jackets??!?!?
  13. should be disgusted with himself for starting huet in the first place when it finally looked like niemi was starting to play well as the number 1
  14. i hope syracuse comes back so we hear a little gus magic
  15. today? Yeah, we probably aren't anymore by like 2 or 3 maybe
  16. You took a lot of high injury prone pitchers on your staff that would worry me if I had your team. your pitching looks highly suspect, and i think you're going to be struggling in hr, rbi, and maybe ops
  17. and of course it's going to play out so right when we lose the 1 seed, detroit will move into the 7 seed i'm convinced we're destined to get detroit in the 1st round and lose.
  18. i haven't been watching. how many have been soft? [expletive] you q
  19. really starting to question q. starting huet was [expletive] stupid. he says that huet is the number 1 but he wanted to give huet a start. fine, i understand that..... but why tonight? niemi is coming off one of his best games of the season and has 2 shutouts his last 3 games. why not ride that and see if he can get a streak going? but no, instead he benches him (so he has 5 straight days off to cool off) so he can give huet a start that could have waited until niemi had a bad game. [expletive] brilliant
  20. Marlon Byrd is probably the last person I'd suspect to do coke. HE IS SO HUGE. Big people don't do coke? Not as much, or else they would eventually get smaller. wtf
  21. Yeah, that's the philosphy to go through life with! And it's gotten you so far. it has gotten him far. extremely far. he not only made it to the majors, but he is getting paid tens of millions of dollars to play a sport. Did you not read the rest of my post? His attitude and personality has gotten him nowhere. His luck of being uniquely skilled in skill set that is rewarded hansomly. I suppose hard work is a positive trait that helped him get to where he is today as anyone who has had to play baseball has had to work hard to get there. But all the hard work in the world wouldn't have mattered if he didn't have god given ability to play the game. Show me one instance where his attitude and personality helped him get even $1, because that's what were talking about. Bradley said he's not changing anything about his personality, specifically his behavior towards umpires in this instance because it's gotten him this far. i just think it's funny that you imply he hasn't made it far when he is one of the slect few to make it to the majors, and one of the even more select few to get a huge contract that he could live comfortably off of for the rest of his life. milton bradley has a life most people dream of. he's a multi million for playing baseball.
