Herc

the gel wasn't necessary seeing as how im italian and naturally have greasy hair. i have no complaints about the girls out here though, way better than fishmurda

im here at hofstra law, hopefully it'll just be for a year

yeah, too bad we didn't have milton bradly in 98. he struck out last night and immediately broke his bat over his knee with a straight face. i love that guy

it's definitely ridiculous, that comes out to like 4 bucks a game for the last month and like 2 bucks a game for the entire season but i asked the guy if it was going to go down september 1st or something and he said it wasn't likely since they lost all that revenue the first month of the season before they struck a deal with MLB

i paid 169 for extra innings at my parents house in may. now im living in strong island (it's only strong while i live here) and i jsut paid another 120 for the last month of the season. would you do this if your team led the wild card race and was 1 game out of the division?

i think nem is just teasing me

i think vince young murdered any chance we had at getting fisher, but i agree with those who said he'd be their #1 choice. as for the three guys in the poll, the only guy i'd want is bellicek. imagine how many years cowher would get here with this ownership

that's the way to do it. i feel the same way about the 2000 giants, i guess some people only want to remember that we lost the last game but i had a great time as a fan that year

yeah i agree, even though i was an optimistic teenager i knew how big of an underdog they were going into that series, so to see them surprisingly look like legit competition for the yanks and then see it wiped away by that call was like being on a rollercoaster. i think gwynn had two jacks that game

i might be wrong but I'm pretty sure 10-5 rules only apply to trades. Since you can just let a player go to the team that claimed him without compensation I would think that the 10-5 rule doesn't apply in this case. There's not much you can get for the guy at this point anyway with his salary. I don't think cashman's the type to just let him go anyway, the pads were willing to take igawa off your hands and although I don't know the details it looks like cashman was asking for too much when he really is in no position to do so. I'm sure he would take the same attitude towards trading mussina. of course if the red sox, mariners, tigers, indians, or angels claimed him I don't blame him for pulling him back

nice thread boohyah.

if you ask me, cashman's a dumbass if some team claimed mussina and he pulled him back. let someone else pay the rest of his contract

no im seriously not bitter--the was a great season that i'll never forget and im not going to beat myself up over not beating the best team in baseball history. but if you remember, it was easily the turning point of the game and, as it turned out, the series. that totally took the wind out of their sails--obviously it's the pads fault for letting one bad call affect them for 3 more games, but it was still a horeshit call, it was a straight fastball right down the middle. edit: while im not bitter about the series--you guys were obviously the better team--the call definitely irked the shit out of me at the time. we were going toe to toe with you guys up until then.

they sure liked you guys in 98 when mark langston threw strike three right over the plate before tino's grand slam

that's true, he'd be getting murdered this week if he didn't make the media's job easier

he'll be gone as soon as the 'tiki says controversial things about the giants!' type of stories get stale--he has nothing else to lean on (like talent for instance)

i honestly thought you guys had it won. when hoffman went 53 for 54 in 98 the one blown save was a big homerun to alou, im pretty sure he's gotten to hoffman a few other times too. anyway that's two really good series in a row, i think we got one more before the season ends which im sure will be no different. i'd love to see 7 games like this in the nlcs. as for wagner, i mean he's a good closer, but i honestly thought omar should've went after hoffman when it looked like he wasn't going to resign. he was way cheaper and you only had to give him 2 years

i like kendall and i thought he had a legit grievance, but i just can't ever condone a player dogging it--even in the preseason and training camp

he's a whore, plain and simple. he'll do and say anything for money. i wonder how much he'll charge me to take a dump on his face. all the pennies in my ashtray? the difference between large and supersize fries perhaps?

he's blown saves at shea before, piazza used to own the hell out of him

i haven't had cable or internet in 3 days (at library now) so i checked here before espn or anything to find out the score, doesn't look like i'd like to know the details.

not for me. im not a yankee fan

would you have said that before 2006? no one jumped the gun on payton, that's for sure

khalil green's field % and # of errors is equal to reyes and better than jeter's

the yanks sure do. ask the orioles
