Like I said in the other thread, I have a bad feeling that this will just be a repeat of all the Theo Epstein bullshit from a few years ago.

I really hope this isn't just a repeat of the Theo Epstein stuff from a few years ago.

This is a victory for the justice system. And my balls. Were they referencing anything with Stan during the terrorist attack? EDIT: Private Ryan, I'm an idiot.

I think 'holy shit' is the only way to describe that. I'd laugh if it wasn't so sad.

He sounded like Barkley, but he looked like Carl Winslow.

They didn't waste any time getting Clint Hurdle a new hat.

Really good episode tonight, so much great stuff. -Jealous Rita -Doakes and Dexter, BFF -Deb being the #1 thorn in Dexter's side Re: him being caught The only thing I don't really care about is the stuff with the Lieutenant and La Guerta, but at least they didn't go the obvious way with that one.

It seems like they've had a problem with pacing in the past few episodes. And I don't know if it's just me, but Update seems to keep going, but that just might be my imagination. I actually liked last night's episode more than last week's. The only thing that was really terrible was the Al Gore sketch.

Has it been one month allready?

Why can't they play an afternoon game on a weekend?

The funny thing is that Lofton hasn't won a World Series, you'd think he would have lucked into one eventually. And look at his 3 years from 2002 thru 2004: 2002 - 8 outs away from winning it all with the Giants 2003 - Cubs, we all know what happened there 2004 - Blows 3-0 with the Yankees

I'd like to apologize to the rest of the league on behalf of the Leafs for waking up Sidney Crosby. Sorry.

As far as I know, there's only one person who would be able to set it up. And he's more concerned with his eBay rating.

There's a chance the Hurricanes aren't even in the Finals that year if he doesn't come off the bench against Buffalo and shut them out. Also, he was awesome in the Olympics against Canada. And the Leafs should get beaten 7-1 more often!

'That's the Cadillac of cars!'

I hope his lawyer knows that.

Glaus's trade value isn't exactly very high. Unless they have some trade worked out where they get Miguel Cabrera or something (and they don't exactly have the pieces to make that trade), he won't be going anywhere. Riccardi probably has at least another year, but I think Gibbons is gone if they don't make the playoffs or at least come pretty close.

A new hitting coach for the Jays is such a nothing move. Wells, Glaus, Overbay, Johnson, and Zaun all under-performed because of injuries. When over half of your opening day line-up have big injury problems, how is it the hitting coach's fault? Not to mention they had a blackhole of offense at shortstop all year with either Clayton or McDonald in there.

I guess he just has to take a pill a very day.

82 ALCS (Brewers/Angels), 85 ALCS (Royals/Blue Jays)

There's one older guy I see walking around town a lot who wears an old Diamondbacks hat. That always gives me a chuckle.

Orlando Hudson

I'd agree, but My Boys is actually half decent.

It's up to the organization to distribute rings, not based on active rosters or anything like that. Commonly, they will at least give one to any player active during the season. The Red Sox gave them practically to everyone in the front office as well. Didn't the White Sox give Frank Thomas one when he had about ten at bats all season and they had him pushed half way out the door? Not quite as bad as the Red Sox giving Nomar a ring, which is hilarious, as all anyone could talk about after the World Series that year was that it wouldn't have happened if they hadn't traded him away.

I'm 99% sure that's the rule, and NHL referees aren't just going to make something up on the fly. Anyway, that was a pretty good game and putting Ponikarovsky back with Sundin and Antropov was a smart move.
