  1. It was a bad as it get for Boston in today's game: terrible hitting, bad base running, no clutch hits, it was a bad day all around. Now the Yankees come into Fenway, and if the Redsox keep losing, their season, believe it or not, might be in jeopardy. On the plus side, Jon Lester looked great.
  2. If you're buying, I'm drinking. We don't brew any haterade for the Giants down here. We just send cholos to hospitalize them. Kidding, in bad taste. No problem, Jon. They shot a Giants fan a couple years ago. At least this one is still alive. Whoa I just read about this incident. Horrible. http://sports.espn.g...tory?id=6297020 It's just sad what has happened to the Dodgers and the Dodger Stadium experience. I refuse to go to games in person anymore, the atmosphere is terrible, and most definitely, I will not go anywhere close to the left field bleachers, it is way too crazy out there. This once glorious franchise is being run into the ground by the McCourt's, and they could care less, all they want is to steal all the money they can from the fans, and Dodger funds -- I used to be a die hard Dodger fan, but after Murdoch and McCourt, count me out.
  3. Tottenham was toast after Crouch was sent off, very poor playing on his part, it seems to have taken the heart out of 'Spurs..
  4. Giants are not looking too good right now. Madison Baumgartner was taken out after just three innings today, and the defense is atrocious right now, with a weak offense to boot. Hopefully, it's just early season stuff that can be corrected.
  5. I think the Bulls are still improving in their play, and are going to be very tough to beat in the playoffs. My cystal ball says: Lakers vs. Bulls in the finals. The Heat seem to be missing something as a team, and D-Wade seems to be put-out to be taking a backseat to LBJ -- I would so love a one-and-done by the Heat.
  6. Last night was the first time I've been able to watch a game, and I was very underwhelmed by the new ESPN baseball crew -- snoozeville.
  7. This is such a great idea, and one I've never thought of before, but it would make a fantastic movie. I'm sure Hollywood would ruin it by adding an epilogue where Jordon and his son (never made clear in the book if it is his or not) have a touching meeting over a Grand Slam at a Denny's. You know Hollywood can't let that one pass. You're right, of course; if it was made, the result would most likely be very disappointing. Can't tell you how much I love your idea, it really would make a great movie. Wonder if Jordan ever shopped the book around, or made a script of it. I'm trying to remember, but didn't I read somewhere that Jordan is married to Meg Ryan's mother?

  9. Ketchup is okay, but don't get me started on relish -- yuck!
  10. Is anyone counting on Calon for anything? The Yankees will feel lucky with ten wind out of him. Texas looks great. Boston not so great.
  11. I mean: Simce when does anything that Bud does make any sense Darn iPhone, I'm even a worse speller using it.
  12. One of the possible outcomes of the trial is that Bud Selig will declare Bonds home run record wiped out if Bond's is found guilty. Selig hates the idea of Bonds having Aaron's record, and might be his chance to take it away. For the record, I would not agree with that course of action.
  13. "Yankee Hobo In The Orient" by John Patric, is an interesting read. Patric wrote the book about his visit to Japan in the 1930s, and it is very politically incorrect. The book was given to the USA troops to give them "insight" to the Japanese mind. Might be hard to find, I bought my copy at a used bookstore in Mt. Vernon, WA.
  14. I have MLB 11 on my iPhone, and it is a great way to follow baseball on the road, and just $14.99.
  15. Thankfully, the real season starts. Should be a great year. NL: Giants, Reds, Braves, WC Phillies Al: Oakland, Twins, Red Sox, WC Tampa Bay WS: Red Sox vs Braves Winner: Braves in 7
  16. Very good article on Tony Gwynn, Mr. San Diego, and his recovery from cancer. SAN DIEGO -- The trophy case in his home is full of gold gloves, silver bats and taco-brown uniforms. But it's the white mask in the corner that keeps Tony Gwynn preoccupied. Sometimes he puts on the mask to remember his November and December, to remember what it felt like to have the ultimate fastball aimed at his head. Sometimes he puts it on for no reason at all. It's the only item in his trophy room that he stares at, the only item that has nothing to do with baseball, the only item that is probably worthless on eBay but priceless to this Hall of Famer. To Tony Gwynn, it is not just a mask made out of ordinary plastic. It is the mask that helped him, literally, save face. The rest of the article
  17. You can be sure there would have been a couple of "f-bombs" in the answer...
  18. Supposedly 10.59 GB, more or less as these things go.
  19. Question answered. Thank you Rod!
  20. I'd like to transfer this box on my Nano (16gb), anyone know how many GB's this monster takes up?
  21. We'll get to see Luis Castillo! :excited:
  22. Just because... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ac4xBu8SMYc
  23. Miss Idaho again?? What is it with the Nationals?
