    you're drunk, aren't you? Is he talking about injury time? As an aside, I wish they'd bring back the Golden Goal... Injury time...that's it! I don't understand that deal at all. They take the time where the game was not played during that 45 minute period due to injuries and substitutions and add it onto the end, making the half 45 minutes of actual playing time. I don't get why it's a mystery though. The announcers don't seem to know how much time is left in the match.....why the confusion? the referee keeps the official time on the field. it used to be that the offical time was not announced. However, most leagues now have the 4th offical put up a signboard saying how much time will be added on nowadays.

    I read a good post on another message board speculating that Ching is simply a backup target man for McBride.

    Is everyone prepared for Luis Gonzalez crushing Greg Maddux pitching, or do we assume that Greg's so good this year that it won't happen? Because i definitely recall this being an ugly matchup for the last couple of years.

    I am. Italy's younger stars have looked very good of late (plus Totti looks like he'll be 100%), and the Czechs have Nedved. Sorry, allow me to rephrase that. I'm not worried about us playing WELL against Italy and Czech Republic. Whether we win or not is another thing. I am worried about how well we play vs Ghana. Ok, now I completely agree with you.

    I chalk Italy's low odds up to the Francesco Totti comeback bump. No way they should go into the tournament at 5/1

    Taking a quick look I'm surpised at Ching over Twellman.... Thats who I was missing. I was trying to figure out how the hell Ching made the team. I think the success of this team comes down to Onyewu, Dempsey, and Johnson. Wow. Ching over Twellman is definitely the shocker. Hooray for Berhalter and Zavagnin not making it.

    Is there anything crappier than the ussoccer.com website? They spend almost all of their time putting up headline articles that nobody cares about (U-17 WNT vs. Guatemala, etc.), plus the website goes down under the slightest amount of traffic. it's inaccessible right now. How do they expect to handle the actual World Cup traffic?

    Rusch agrees!

    How about, to help Fred out, we allow the Pierre groundout to second be shortened to a single letter. I propose that from now on, ehen Fred types "Q", it's a Pierre groundout to second.

    I have a question: Is anyone actually swayed by the fact that their gasoline could be "crystal clear"? Or can pretty much everbody see through that ridiculous marketing gimmick?
  15. sethuel1
    I know I do.

    I'm really tired of the "Pierre is thrown out on a good play!" thing from Pat and Ron. He hit a weak grounder. The fielder knew how much time he's got, took his time, and got the putout. It wasn't close.

    Who is on track to come back first, he or Prior? Wood. He might be 3-4 rehab starts away from returning. prior is actually deceased and they just haven't told us yet.

    Why would he honestly say this? Doesn't he want to further the MLS and have it become a more world renowned league? I don't want all of our good players leaving to play in Europe. I want them to stay in the US and play. I know people have differing opinions on this matter but you would think that a former US National Team player and former MLS player wouldn't want all of the good American players to leave the US. Is the money on offer in Europe not far, far more than the money on offer in MLS? That's surely going to go through these players' minds. Yes, it is. Unless you're Freddy Adu. Also, I completely agree with USSoccer regarding players moving to Europe. The MLS is simply not good enough for our top-end talent right now. Therefore, these players must play abroad in order to play world-class.

    it depends what you play. Single deck blackjack has better odds than 2 deck, which has better odds than 4 deck, etc. Also, a number of casinos have switched blackjack payouts from 3 to 2 to 6 to 5, increasing their overall advantage. Statistically speaking, if you play at a single deck table with normal 3 to 2 payouts, and play exactly perfect blackjack (i.e. memorize a table like this one), the house has a .2% advantage. With eight decks that house advantage rises to .6% or so. In craps, if you play pass/don't pass with 100x odds, the house has .02% advantage. At 2x odds, it's ~.6% the best odds games in casinos are actually "full pay" video poker machines, which pay out greater than 100% to a statistically perfect player. Too bad there aren't many full pay machines around anymore.

    He wasn't negotiating against himself? I thought he signed Glendon before Glendon talked to any other teams. Glendon was re-signed before he filed for FA. Which means we don't have to wait until June 15th to trade him! Hooray!

    Let me get this straight... you, a Cowboys fan from Louisiana, like the fact that the Cowboys picked someone from LSU? Incredible.
  23. sethuel1
    :-k It's one of the few low numbers remaining... Unless I go down to 29. Um.
  24. sethuel1
    Boy, casinos must absolutely love some of you guys.

    whatever, I'm happier with cedeno out there anyway. You guys aren't swayed by Furcal's .529 OPS?
