From the 2005 media guide (I don't have the 2006 one), here's where they stayed last year. Arizona: Ritz-Carlton Phoenix Atlanta: Ritz Carlton- Atlanta Cincinnati: Westin Colorado: Westin Tabor Center Florida: Ft. Lauderdale Marina Marriott Houston: Four Seasons Los Angeles: Rtiz Carlton Hunnington Milwaukee: The Pfister Hotel New York: Grand Hyatt New York Philadelphia: Ritz-Carlton Pittsburgh: Westin Convention Center St. Louis: Hyatt Regency St. Louis San Diego: san Diego Marriott Hotle and Marina San Francisco: Renaissance Parc Firfty Five Washington was not listed. All teams visiting Chicago use the Westin except the Cardinals. The Cardinals use the Four Seasons.

Jabroni was a Sox troll. Yanr got into trouble in threads that dealt with people of other races. Cardia was an all around ass. Cubsfanbeardsauce was amusing. I think his yanr-ing was the result of not properly referencing homosexuals. Champs...I really can't recall why he was yanred. ZZ got on a lot of people's nerves. That's about as much of a summation as I've got.

They all have been yanr-ed. Is that short enough?

Checking in on Pinto and Nolasco.

Mitre is scheduled to pitch tomorrow against Mark Mulder and the Cardinals. Link. -
Nothing is likely to happen for the next 2-3 weeks while Sori is playing in the WBC. After that, things likely get interesting. The most recent reports have Soriano still telling people that he is not moving to the outfield.

Cardinals tickets go on sale tomorrow

Turns out you were right - I'm down the left field line. Not exactly what I had in mind when I bought 110 dollar tickets. I think I'm gonna sell these them. If anyone is interested, send me a PM. Before you get rid of them, if it's the party room...you get free Budweiser from 30 mins before the game to the top of the 8th...so if you drink, you might enjoy being in that room. Depending on what party room you're in....if it's the Coca-Cola Pavillion you'll have a buffet as well. It's the 1944 Championship Room. It comes with free beer, soda, and food til the 8th inning. Definitely a sweet setup, but not worth 110 bucks to me. I don't like getting drunk at baseball games (that's for after the game!) and I can eat before, so with the seats being up a couple levels, I don't think it's worth it. What date are those tickets for? -
I don't. I'm taking my daughter to the circus. But, I may TiVo it. might as well, check the recaps and only watch the good parts! I might TiVo and then read through the game thread to know where to stop fast forwarding. :)

After putting on 30 pounds from the steroids, you have no idea how right you are !! Next time you come to town, remind me and I'll show you picture of my father dressed as Santa Claus. That is a definite!

Ron just butchered Dopirak's name.
-
Fred would make a great Santa Claus!
-
I don't believe in razors. Haven't used one in 20 years !! I've met Fred and can verify this.

NSBB NCAA March Madness Pick 'em 2006

I'm in as Geaux Tigers. -
Koronka still sucks. Some things never change.

LSU will take town the [expletive] in SEC play this year!

Pie shows off his range and arm on that play!
-
Is Pierre in love with CF like Carlos Beltran? I'd rather have Pierre in RF, and Pie in CF. If you're going to keep both, Pierre would be best in CF and Pie in RF. Pierre has a noodle arm while Pie actually throws pretty well. The only problem is that Pie's (and especially Pierre's) value is greatly diminshed if he is not playing CF.

I think he was shaking off the rust down in Winter League since he hadn't played any baseball since his leg injury. Should be interesting to see if he can continue to put up good numbers. I agree that he was just rusty. It's nice to see some success in the spring to erase some doubts, though.
-
I think Pierre is safe, but Pie could make the Cubs think hard before signing Juan to an extension.
-
Pie is having a nice spring which is good considering how he struggled in the Winter League.
-
I really hope The Riot can make the Opening Day roster.

Those are great seats, Vance! It must make a big difference when you're only requesting one seat. Yes it does. I don't mind attending a game alone, and when getting singles you can sometimes find some great seats. Once at an Astros-Expos game, I bought a single the day of the game and sat one row behind Drayton McClain. -
Ron struggles with remembering the Grapefruit League. Nice exchange there with Pat. :lol:
