Bernard reupped with Seattle. Green Bay signed Pickett.
And Pickett is........who?
You dont mean Cody Pickett, do you? Why the fuck would we want Cody Pickett????

Wait..... The Cardinals have fans? When did that happen?
From my own experiences, being a Yankee, you cant get away from jealous haters. I live in Cali, and since 2001, all kinds of Angels fans just happened to pop up out of nowhere. Everywhere I go, I get that shit.
LOL.. I get that shit all the time too. You ever notice, when you tell someone you're a Yankee fan, that IMMEDIATLEY say..."ARE YOU FROM NEW YORK? ARE YOU??"
You never hear someone ask you if youre from Oakland if youre an A's fan, from Texas if youre a Ranger fan, etc. I think its pure jealousy of people who come from the greatest sports town in the world!!

Not Will P but hopefully that is true about Tyree.
Id love to keep Wil Pete, but he's so injury prone. But when he plays, he's great.
-
Me REALLY likes the Yankees!!!!

Were going back to the big dance baby.......>GO YANKS!!!!!!!!!

My uncle is good friends with his dad and they talk often at their local "watering hole", as it were...I can tell you that David loves the Giants and they love him...he's not going anywhere...relax.
Yippie kyo, kayay!!!!
WE LOVE YOU TOO DAVID!!

If anyone deserves to be angry, they do.
True, but complete nonsense? Bashing me w/o me bashing them? The YANKS???? I didnt even mention baseball!
-
Is this Sportswrath, or Brokeback Mountain??
It can be whatever the fuck it wants to be, as long as hes good.
-
Well we did tender Tyree. If anyone tries to sign him we have a right to match him. I believe we are working on an extension now. If we don't, he becomes a UFA after next season. Just give it time. He will be taken care of.
I hope, this guys a stud.
-
If he's as good as Sehorn before his injury, he can be as vain as he wants. Just play baby, just play.
-
what is goin on with re-signing tyree ??
are the giants getting rid of him?
any info???
comments ?
They better not. That guy is the best sp. teamer in the league. He is even a pretty good 3 or 4th rec. With our sp. teams finally being one of the better in the league, if we cut him, that drastically cuts our sp. team performance.
-
Way to go EA, beef up the sec. The only problem we had last year.
-
Since I live in AZ. I thought I'd congratulate them on a good signing....they bashed me immediatley.
They brought up the Yanks, they told me to go home, all kinnds of nonsense.
LOL, they suck. I think the hate NY's.
-
They lose a close one, 4-3. Good thing its only spring training.
These are the 2 teams I predict to be in the World Series. Mark my words.

Team USA rates incomplete
By Jeff Passan, Yahoo! Sports
March 14, 2006
ANAHEIM, Calif. – Don't call them Team USA anymore. They're not worthy.
This is a flawed group of baseball players, one that boots ground balls and drops pop-ups and can't hit with men on base and takes orders from a manager who would do the team well by stitching his lips shut.
No, this is Team U, which could stand for Underperforming or Uninspired or plain-old Ugly. After a 7-3 loss to Korea in the second round of the World Baseball Classic on Monday night that might render Thursday's game against Mexico meaningless, Team U didn't deserve to wear its country's jersey.
Of course, we should have seen this coming. Because Team U warrants the moniker for another reason: It is woefully incomplete.
Chris Carpenter. Roy Oswalt. Mark Buehrle. Barry Zito.
ADVERTISEMENT
They weren't on Team U's provisional roster.
Neither were Chone Figgins or Todd Helton or Grady Sizemore or Adam Dunn.
Not to mention Roy Halladay, C.C. Sabathia, Billy Wagner, Tim Hudson, Joe Mauer and, yes, Barry Bonds, who chose not to play for Team U.
Maybe they knew all of the built-in advantages for Team U – its draw without Latin American teams, and American umpires working behind home plate for its games, and home-field advantage – would be undone by a lack of talent.
A talent shortage on a team with 20 All-Stars? Compared to what could be – what should be – it's undeniable.
Since Major League Baseball announced the WBC, it talked about how the best teams in the world would play for international supremacy. If, by best teams, it meant a marquee United States squad that featured Randy Winn getting the majority of at-bats in left field – or, in Monday's case, pinch hitting at a crucial moment – then Team U is a rousing success.
Fact is, as the rest of the WBC keeps producing great games, Team U has become staid. Vernon Wells and Matt Holliday and Chase Utley started Monday night, and while they're good young players, they are not the United States' best.
Hopefully, baseball saw the crowd of 21,288 at a not-even-half-full Angel Stadium and started to fret. Interest here is dying, and for an event that depends on the United States buying into it, that's bad.
As if there weren't enough teeth-gnashing, Martinez's decisions could pay for an oral surgeon's retirement.
Derrek Lee sat the entire game. He has been Team U's best hitter.
Michael Young sat the entire game. He is Team U's best second baseman.
Johnny Damon sat the entire game. He is, at very least, a better option than Winn.
And Carpenter and Oswalt and Sizemore and Figgins …
"We can't worry about who didn't play and who could've been here," first baseman Mark Teixeira said. "We just have to try to play better baseball."
You know, he's right. And that's the problem. The United States should not need to play better baseball. It should cruise through these games. A team of All-Stars from Major League Baseball, even a deficient one, should beat a team from Korean Professional Baseball every time.
"When you have two talented teams playing baseball," Teixeira said, "anything can happen."
Blah.
"We had our chances," Derek Jeter said. "We had our chances right from the first inning."
Blah.
"It's definitely frustrating to see," Dontrelle Willis said, "because we know the capability of our team."
Blah.
Excuses no longer fly, not after losses to an inferior Canadian team and a Korean team that, while playing brilliant baseball, is vulnerable against a patient lineup.
Team U has two days off to think about its error-filled calamity, and they'll be tense ones. If Japan beats Mexico on Tuesday, it sets up a scenario in which Team U could be eliminated before its game Thursday with Mexico.
All the while Martinez will think back to the fourth inning of Monday's game. Team U trailed 3-1, and with two outs and a runner on second base, Martinez decided to walk Seung Yeop Lee, Korea's most dangerous hitter. He had walloped a home run in the first inning off Willis, sure, but standing in the on-deck circle was the Dodgers' Hee-Seop Choi. Not sure if there's a rule anywhere, but generally speaking, you don't give an intentional walk to get to the cleanup hitter, particularly the only major leaguer in the lineup.
Well, Choi yanked a home run down the right-field line and Korea led, 6-1. Its pocket of fans down the third-base line screamed and the whole team spilled out of the dugout to congratulate Choi. He waved his hand to everyone here, and to millions of people in Korea who actually care about this tournament.
In center field, fireworks exploded, and the residue was slow to dissipate. It looked like there was a fog hanging over Team U, and it just wouldn't go away.

So who's our starting secondary??
CB's- Will Pete
Sam Madison
SS- Gibril Wilson
FS- ????
-
Texans- Reggie Bush
Saints- AJ Hawk
Titans- D'Brickashaw Fergusen? Vince Young? Matt Leinert?
Jets- Matt Leinert? Vince Young =-o
I would think the Titans would go after a QB, since McNair is on his way out. The one year deal he signed sounds like he's ready to teach someone to take his spot. My guess, V. Young to the Titans, Leinart to the Jets.
Is it just me, or does anyone else think Leinart will be a flop?

Vikings ship Culpepper to Dolphins
By JON KRAWCZYNSKI, AP Sports Writer
March 14, 2006
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) -- The Minnesota Vikings traded disgruntled quarterback Daunte Culpepper to the Miami Dolphins on Tuesday.
Vikings spokesman Tom West confirmed the deal, but did not give specifics. Several media reports say Minnesota received a 2007 second-round pick in return.
The deal gives Culpepper the out he wanted from Minnesota, where he made the Pro Bowl three times in seven seasons. But his relationship with the organization had deteriorated swiftly in recent weeks, as Culpepper apparently felt unwanted.
Culpepper is coming off a subpar season before it ended Oct. 30, when he tore three ligaments in his knee during a game against Carolina.
Damn you guys, you always beat me to the news, so I posted it anyway....hehe

Thats actually not a bad pickup. If we get Lavar, we'll have one of the best LB corps out there. With this signing, our sec. dont look to bad either. Not bad, not bad at all.
Dont get me wrong, he's no Champ Bailey, but solid.
-
Have you seen Denny Green lately? He looks like he put on about 200 lbs.
Maybe he'll play nosetackle this year.
LOL!
I thought it was Andy Reid after staying in the tanning bed too long.

Signing Edge fills up seats at their new retractable state of the art Stadium.
Thats pretty much the way I loook at it.
-
I think it would be close too. Eli would have gotten thrown around, but Tiki would have kept the offense rolling, and our D would have obliterated Grossman or Orton, and the sp. teams would have been the diff.
-
The new CBA,( collective bargaining agreement). It opened up more cap space for alot of people. Then theres the Skins, who have NO money, but keep signing people. Thats a mystery in itself.
