Yeah

I just got here myself. Hey, at least we’re in time to join the new thread.

A Lonestar in California

We need to hire Chuck Norris to kick the ass of any Ranger fan caught booing one of our young pitchers at the RBiA.

Damn Pudge

why did you have to walk back into Schieffer’s office?

Josh Hamilton is better than you.

by Longhorn on Aug 4, 2008 8:16 PM CDT   0 recs

Whatever.

I love the fact that he showed some loyalty. You don’t see that these days.

i love pudge

but it would have been best for the Rangers if the trade went through.

Posada, Eric Milton, and Tony Armas Jr

for pudge

I love TAG leaning on the Tracker. The Tracker is never wrong.

just another normal game against the yankees

we get screwed, can’t come up with the big hit when we need it to get us back in the game, and the very next inning the flood gates open for the yankees.

Why I hate Giambi

He gets away with steroids, by not admitting to using it. Now the mustache b.s.

i was just about to say

it’s kind of funny how he got a free pass for doing the same thing that barry did.

by jas003 on Aug 4, 2008 8:20 PM CDT to parent up   0 recs

he got a free pass

because he’s not as good as barry. pretty weird

I hate that he wasn't punished too

... and now nobody’s talking about his troubles, but they’re crucifying Clemens and Bonds.

OT: Weather

Tornadic thunderstorm approaching north Chicago right now with a confirmed tornado on the ground. Tonight’s Astros/Cubs game at Wrigley Field is in a “rain delay,” though this is presumably an extremely dangerous situation given that there’s 30,000+ at the stadium tonight.

Rather than running it out. Did they already give up?

My media buddy

He saw CH shake his wang at a woman reporter in the lockerroom saying he saw her looking, you want it, you like that, etc. This story jibes with his for sure.

I think he'll be a career platoon OF

His low OBP is concerning, but if he didn’t play against lefties, I think his stats might look better.

If he played against Joba every game, he'd have 162 HR's

the balk is the stupiest rule in baseball...

I umpired little league years ago, and could you tell me when the
pitcher was “trying” to deceive the runner? They were lucky to get
it across the plate.
