  1. When Dusty brought Borowski in to face Jeter with the bases loaded, I said to the Cardinal fan in the house, "I don't know if I can bear to sit here and watch JoBo give up the 'slam to Jeter." He said, "Jeter's never hit a grand slam in his life." I said, "First time for everything." I think he thought I was either just being gloomy or trying to put a reverse jinx on Jeter or something. But a few pitches later, Jeter launches it, and I just sat there. I didn't start yelling at the TV (something I do a lot when I watch Cubs games) or armchair managing, I just sat there. He said, "I don't believe he actually did it." I said, "I told you it was going to happen." How can we all sit here and know things from observation, like Remlinger isn't a lefty-lefty pitcher and Borowski needs to start an inning or come in with the bases empty so that he can afford to make a mistake that won't cost us the game, and Dusty can't? I know that sometimes there are things that go on behind the scenes that we aren't privy to, but I can't imagine what's going on that outweighs these two nearly irrefutable facts.
  2. I've voted for DLee 125 times. :) I need to activate the other mailboxes on my SBC account and then I could vote for him another 125 times. Actually, if I go to mlb.com and use my husband (the Cardinals fan)'s home email address...I can not only vote for Derrek 25 times, but take away 25 potential votes from Albert as well. I urge all of you to do the same. Get to mlb.com using your Card fan friend's email addresses before they do. Mwahahaha!
  3. I've been premium for awhile now...I'll PM Tim and ask him. My avatar isn't as funny without the title. :) Thanks!
  4. How do you get a custom title?
  5. That sounds like personal experience shining through. Amateur. ;) You have to take into account that he's a big boy and err on the side of giving him a little much rather than risk having it not work.
  6. Well, here goes! I haven't read the rest of the thread b/c I don't want to crib other people's guesses.

  7. Nilo, I'm looking for Cubs/Cards tickets on Friday, August 11...if you can get a window to pop up, IM me @ graciesgirl97 and we'll work something out.
  8. Well, I'm out. I have to go to work for an hour. I'm going to try to get one of the guys at work to open me a window and leave it open and call me out of my class if he gets in so I can try for tickets there. Otherise I'm going to leave these windows open and try my luck when I get home. :cry:
  9. My windows are refreshing just fine...all I want is 4 tickets to the Cards game on either August 12 or August 13. I don't even want to sell the tickets for a profit...I'm just trying to take a weekend trip :(
  10. I'm up to 56 windows and the timer only seems to be going on about 10-15 of them at a time, if that. :( I'm notliking my chances.
  11. I've got 48 windows open and haven't gotten anything yet :(
  12. I as having that problem with Firefox, so whenever I have "account maintenance" to do I just open up IE, then close it the second I'm done and go back to Firefox. :)
