  1. maybe he'll bid against the yanks for posada (there's a good way to make bad team chemistry worse)
  2. that was my exact guess when i saw your initial post. lo duca has to be the source
  3. yeah people lump shockey in there with burress but if you ask me they're worlds apart in terms of what's behind their on field antics.
  4. yeah pads fans are pretty awesome
  5. was that w's first press secretary?
  6. yeah i've seen it. he's better than this kid but still, what makes him think the world wants to know his video opinion of the giants?
  7. haha so i guess if you dig even further it was a good thing that phillips traded dotel. he was part of the hampton deal right?
  8. well i dont have a problem with rollins and the phils fans being confident in their team--they're not supposed to be objective like a television analyst should be
  9. i think he's dogging it on purpose to behonest with you. i think he hit posada on purpose too (though who could blame him, posada's a prick)
  10. geez, i actually still gave him a bit of credit for getting wright and reyes (or am i wrong there?) but if he tried to trade both of them--i know about reyes for alomar, but wright for cruz?? --then that's all negated. i dont blame anyone for getting excited about the braves acquisitions, but the mets have been in first all year and are the defending division champs--they are the team to beat at least until someone catches them
  11. it's a typical omar move. low risk guy who has shown flashes but was hurt and therefore cheap this season. was he pitching in the minors all year? i totally forgot you guys had him until i heard he was starting today
  12. if george decides to sell his share of the yanks charles dolan will be first in line--scary thought
  13. bochy's got a little too much torre in him, when his team is winning he looks like that guy who steadies the ship, when the team's losing he looks like he doesn't care. in either case morris should shut the hell up
  14. fastball sinker slider. he's a bit like perez in the sense that he'll sometimes forget a few minor things in his mechanics and he'll suddenly have a shitty inning. i know perez has a problem with keeping his delivery compact at times and lawrence is the same way with his arm slot, he'll drop down too low in the later innings and peterson might have to go out there and give a gentle reminder. him, eaton and peavy were our future at the turn of the millenium and he was actually the most accomplished of the three for a while--you can even argue he was our ace in 2002 and he had a few years when his era was under 4.00. but then (if i remember correctly) his last season was garbage and then he was hurt for all of 06. to behonest i dont even remember ifhe was in the starting rotation in 05 or if he was in the bullpen
  15. what compels people to make these videos? do people wake up and say "hey, the world wants to know what ithink about the giants, so not only will i videotape my opinion but i'll completely wing it too"
  16. i think the yes network sale is a precursor to the yanks being sold. steinbrenner isn't doing well and for wahtever reason it's going underreported by the ny media
  17. i have sizemore and v-mart, no complaints here
  18. cleveland smacked him around last time he faced them, 3 runs in 6.2 is ok though, still considered a quality start
  19. Herc

    Shockey

    i dont care what he says as long as he produces and plays hard
  20. oh wow i forgot holmes and he's one of my favs. so yeah i guess him and tyson + the 8 i mentioned in my last post would be my top ten--i have no idea how i would order them though
  21. i dont think strahan should be wanting more money, an extension i could understand, but a flat out raise just cuz freeney got paid is a tad unreasonable IMO--he's the one who wanted all that money upfront back in 2002 or whatever when he was negotiating the extension and tiki opened his big mouth, so he basically already got paid big and now there's barely anything left in his deal. freeney got his big contract just like strahan got his a few years ago. but none of this pisses me off or makes me not like the guy anymore, he's been on the team since i started watching full-time and i know he'll end up playing anyway. as long as he plays and produces he's cool with me
  22. still my favorite giant, this shit is just how it is in sports these days--gotta accept it
  23. when shockey dropped that pass and smiled i interpreted it as more of a 'wow, unreal' like when ur playing poker and someone calls you with a stupid hand and beats you on the river and you just can't do anything but laugh
