  4. http://www.toyah.net/tag/all-star-mr-mrs/ He could at least have worn a Schizoid Man mask, If they take his picture, will he leave?
  5. Ron Washington: > We can play bas eball. I can't even calculate how much better they are than the pathetic bunch of over-rated douchebags that embarrassed themselves at Arlington this weekend. But Dan, it's the FIRST PLACE bunch of over-rated douchebags!
  6. Here's some interesting research by Tom Verducci at SI: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/mlb/news/20130503/clay-buchholz-spitball-red-sox-blue-jays-joey-votto-matt-harvey/index.html
  7. I've done both mail order and in store, never a problem
  8. I hear a little bit of E.F. Hutton there. I think Gene Autry's ghost took over the team a few years ago. Wells, Mathews Jr., a whole lot for Pujols and again for Hamilton. They seek out players who are heading away from their prime and pay them using some formula involving age & weight. Actually I'm insulting Autry, as at least good years were gotten from Carew and Grich & Baylor were still in their late 20s when they were signed. The Pujols contract will be the Angels version of the Yankees and A-Rod, premium $$ spent on an aging, broken down player in the last years of the contract.
  9. Congrats, RT and best of luck in your new gig!
  10. A lot of pizza in NYC is made by Mexican folks.
  11. I'm honored by a nomination, but my personal life is a MESS right, I moved in March and I'll be moving agaian by mid-June, and my job is also moving in mid-May.
  12. Not a Met fan, but the bullpen was a problem last year and it looks to be a problem this year also.
  13. On top of which they didn't get much from dropping that low in the draft to pick him. Worst part beside them not picking a DL which like the Raiders they desperately needed.....like the Giants they could have taken Barrett Jones. He was probably the best lineman avialble from Alabama. He started out as a guard. Because of injuries was moved to left tackle in 2011 and won the Outland that year. Moved to center as a senior and won the Rimmington. They only player to win both at two different positions. As well 3 National Championships at three different positions and All-American at three positions. If he came out last year as a left tackle he goes in the first round. As a center/guard..... Hell, they could have even taken Brian Schwenke if they wanted a center that bad. As in, Jerry Jones strikes again. The difference between him and Al Davis is that at one time Al Davis knew what he was doing as de facto GM. Worst picks would be by the Lions and Bears. The Raiders had a Al Davis flashback. They dropped from the 3rd overall to 12 for a single 2nd round pick to pick the fastest DB....he just open heart surgery last Nov to repair a torn inferior vena cava ...it's honestly is a miracle he's even alive. The JETS basically drafted for whomever finally replaces Ryan with two defensive players when their biggest problem is on offense. The Browns picked the player Miami should have if they were going LB instead of OL. Browns needed a WR last year and they picked another QB and a RB. They still need a WR for whomever is QB....and they picked a LB when their defense wasn't the problem. The JETS are supposedly interesed in Ryan Nassib or Geno Smith. What does it say about Ryan Nassib (who beside Barkley was touted to be the most Pro-ready QB's) that his former coach passed on him as QB for someone (who unless the Bills are changing to a read option offense) will be sitting a couple years? The Hoodie got the Nos. 52, 83, 102, 229 from the Vikings for trading the 29th. That's a lot of picks by the Vikings for a 29th, which brings up once again just how litttle the Raiders and Cowboys recieved in return. I like the Rams picks. Bradford needs a WR and if Ogletree can stay out of trouble...he might be the best LB picked in the first round. A big caution for the Jets first pick, the DB- he's had FIVE surgeries already.
  14. Interesting article, Dan, thanks for the link.
  15. I heard from a source that they had down gone down from 10 working in the warehouse and shipping dept to 2. That might explain the error. Hey Art Salt, welcome to the board!
  16. They have to-nobody wants him, so there's no trade value I can see.
  17. It'll be interesting to see what the Jets do, they need to make two very good picks in the first round to jumpstart the rebuilding process
  18. Poor Bartman still getting bashed, but the horrible Cubs relievers get off the hook, and the toothpick-chewin' manager who ran them out there... meanwhile you'e still counting your lucky stars you had itsy-bitsy Jeffrey Maier. Just think. Only 10 months earlier, the sports pages yelled "Joe Who?". Yankee fans might still be yelling that if not for their little innocent guardian angel. There was quite a difference between Bartman and Maier- Bartman was so villified he had to move, and Maier made the rounds of the morning talk shows! Bartman did what any fan woulld do- he saw a ball coming his way and tried to catch it. Maier interfered with a ball on the field of play and shoulda been tossed form the game. IIRC, Rich Garcia was the ump and he correctly admitted after the game that he had made a bad call. I remember watching the game and shaking my head and saying, "How's that a home run?" I get no joy from the team I am rooting for being on the good side of a bad call- I'd rather they win by hitting better, less mistakes, etc. I'd much rather there be no bad calls, but that's not realistic and we can't replay it, so let it go and move on. By that point in the season Torre had already proven himself to be a good manager, so the 'Joe Who?' headlines didn't matter anymore.

  21. From what I've seen, he's already lost all the $$ he made in baseball on his vidoegame company
  22. That Mahavishnu box price is fantastic, and it has 2+ discs of live MO.
  23. I don't think I could endure Baraka either. I went one year and caught Khan Jamal, and he and his band were fantastic. The performance was ruined by some poetess who had no idea when to come in, when to lay out, etc
