    A Note to Admins

    The True Fonzie tried too hard. Usually, the best gimmicks are the most simple.

    Saturday's Oilers/Habs Legends game

    I think the Leafs could probably play all of their home games at SkyDome (roof open or closed) and draw crowds of 30,000+, anyway, but I don't think an outdoor game at a place like SkyDome would have the same appeal as a a game at Commonwealth Stadium (or a similar place) has. A game in Central Park sounds a hell of a lot better, anyway.

    Saturday's Oilers/Habs Legends game

    HNIC is showing the old-timers game live, but I guess that the Center Ice package isn't picking it up. As for the weather, I think Edmonton just got dumped with a ton of snow in the past few days, but it doesn't look like there's going to be any more falling on the weekend. It should be cold, but I think they're more worried about a wind-chill factor that would make it too cold to be outside. It's going to have to be VERY cold, though, for them to cancel it, though.

    A's Fans

    Before the season ended, Kielty was talking about working out hardcore over the offseason since he was dissappointed by his production in '03. I was looking forward to seeing him progress, but the Jays outfield is full at both the Major and Minor league level, so he was expendable. And the Jays sure shored up their pitching today, I just hope it doesn't mean they're giving up on re-signing Escobar. I remember hearing rumblings of an Escobar for Lilly trade around the trade deadline, but J.P. decided to keep Escobar around for the rest of the season (and hopefully beyond that). Oh well, I just hope this turns out better for the Jays than last year's annual 'off-season swap with Oakland', as Lidle didn't have a very good year at all.
  6. Stay tuned to the Downhome News Network for the latest.

    The Official MLB Offseason Topic

    I don't know why, but I'm still confident that Escobar is going to be re-signed, just some weird vibe I get from him (expect him to sign with someone else as early as tomorrow). And no way Lidle's coming back, what a waste he was.

    The Official MLB Offseason Topic

    Swiped from the pages of ESPN.com: I'm excited about this and he should be a decent number 3 starter.

    You really think he has what it takes?

    A-Rod wins!!!

    Fuck, I'm still pissed that someone left Delgado off their ballot. Not that it would have won him the award, or anything, but I can't believe he thought there were 10 other players who were more valuable than someone who drove in 140+ runs and hit 40+ home runs. I also still can't believe that the best pitcher in the league didn't get any votes, yet the 4 other pitchers who obviously didn't have as good seasons in the mind of the voters got votes. So stupid.

    How many people here

    My best friend has the WCW belt and is probably getting another belt for Christmas. I'm not wasting my money on stuff like that, but if he wants to and I can hold it, wear it, etc. whenever I go over to his house, it's all good.

    SmartMarks Fantasy Hockey?

    Yeah, I did well in the goaltending area for a few weeks there, but then Theodore stopped getting shutout every other game, and since Montreal has a horrible offense, if he gives up 3 goals, they're going to have trouble winning. Also, once Hasek came back I decided to drop Joseph and pick up Fleury, since I figured he'd be playing a lot more. I know he won't win much, but he does face a ton of shots, so that should help boost me up in the saves section (assuming he plays again).

    SmartMarks Fantasy Hockey?

    Yeah, if they fucking PLAY. My 3 goalies started a grand total of 3 games, and Fleury didn't start 1 game after I picked him up. I had a good GAA, but I think I only ended up with 1 win (if that).

    Yankee fans go to war against the forces of evil

    Bullshit, plenty of people hate the Marlins, either for the post-1997 firesale or for Jeffrey Loria. Again, bullshit. Caple is pretty damn funny, just read his review of Olympic Stadium from the summer ballpark tour. Honestly, there are probably only a few parks that ended up ahead of Yankee Stadium that shouldn't have been there. But, history and the like wasn't the main judging point in the rankings, and really, Yankee Stadium doesn't seem to have that much character to it (based solely on seeing the place on TV) as compared to most other stadiums of around the same age (Fenway, Wrigley, etc.) or the new wave parks. Anyway, boo hoo, cry me a river. You poor Yankee fan, sorry that no one likes your team, you should find lots of sympathy now.

    A-Rod wins!!!

    Delgado's actually a decent fielder. Not a Gold Glover, or anything, but better than most give him credit for.

    The Oil get Oates

    I think the Comrie thing is more him not wanting to play in Edmonton anymore as opposed to Edmonton not being able to afford him.

    That's not really a TSM joke.

    The Oil get Oates

    This is good. They were talking about this on the Hotstove on HNIC on Saturday, but Greg Millen wasn't sure that the Oilers could afford him. Obviously, they could.

    Actress Liv Tyler Given Strict Ultimatum

    The 'fattest' (and I use that term VERY loosely) I've ever seen her is in that Dr. T movie. Hollywood sucks.

    A-Rod wins!!!

    It's funny, Halladay was probably more valuable to the Jays than either Delgado or Wells were, yet he doesn't get any votes at all for the MVP. Oh well, I heard that A-Rod was the only player to be named on every ballott, meaning someone left Delgado off, which is just bullshit. Delgado deserved to win it more than A-Rod, as they had very similar numbers in most important categories and Delgado smoked him (and everyone else) in RBI. Probably better that he didn't win, though, as a team with the best pitcher and most valuable player should probably win more than 86 games.

    SmartMarks Fantasy Hockey?

    Well, I had a horrible week. Dropped from 2nd down to 5th as I had a bunch of players who only scored 0 or 1 points all week. Oh well, at least the Penguins FINALLY put Mario on IR after 2 weeks of not playing, so I can fill his roster spot now. I didn't want to drop him to make room for someone, since he is Mario Lemieux and I want to hold onto him. Oh, and Fleury didn't start any games for Pittsburgh after I added him to my team, either. Just a bad week all around.

    I thought tonight's episode was pretty good, actually. Better than last week's, by far.
