Ryan Adams sucks.

Dave Miley = gone I wonder if Phil Garner's time is almost up.

What is quadruple A

Andy Phillips is the same good reserve player he always is, and really deserves a permanent place on the Yankees. Otherwise, the hitting talent is entirely forgettable. Alex Graman pitched, and has some decent stuff, although he pitched himself into a couple of jams he was lucky to escape from. It is criminal that Colter Bean is still plying his trade at AAA. Colter Bean now has an 11.6 K/9 ratio in his minor league career. I don't care if a player is a soft-tosser, or a sidearmed thrower. You do not accumulate that kind of strikeout capability without some kind of real ability. Bean could help the Yankees right NOW. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> From what I've seen, Andy Phillips cannot hit anything but a fastball. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Jesus Christ? He's good. But he doesn't help me with my curveball.

Maddux's response: "Who is Mark Buehrle"

I was in the Led-Floyd camp myself most of high school.

Buck: "GRAND SLAM MANNY RAMIREZ" and meanwhile some Yankee fan would say "It's just CARL PAVANO, it's not a big deal!" it's feels like a hippocrat is in this thread. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> A hippocrat is somebody who advocates government by horses.

No seriously. What planet were you on in August?

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

Seeing as you're Banky, you'd know.

Doctoring a baseball makes it travel in ways that would not normally travel. It'll throw off the balance, and you could have what's like an 85 mph knuckler. Well since you've adopted the White Sox as your team for the year, with the A's playing poorly and the Cubs looking mediocre, I'd expect you to be defensive. But I think anyone just saying "yeah Maddux throws a spitball" would get called a douche. To make sure I'm less biased, I'll also point out that God Among Men Greg Maddux couldn't get out of the 4th against the Marlins on Wednesday. Where was that spitball when we lost 15-5?

You forget that: a) she's a whiny, airheaded bitch. b) the actual things done prove she's so thin-skinned that she'd never last 2 months in the company anyway. She might be whiny and airheaded, but does that mean she deserved to have her shit fucked with? No. And should you be cheering on the hot oiled-up man as he does it with the intent of forcing her off the show? I guess you could, at your own risk. I mean, the Diva Search is one thing. Just thoroughly bad programming. But having Maria or any of these girls appear here and there in a segment or two does not fill me with a hot hot hate, hoping for hazing from a nice, dominant male who can show her her place. I said it in the Amy thread, and I'll say it now: you're taking too much joy in an attractive woman being abused than you should be. At least Bradshaw's hazing is male-on-male, sometimes quite literally. Orton and Edge both crossed the line with their stunts.

I can't wait for today's Cubs@Yankees game!

So yeah anyway, when you guys get really excited about misogynistic men whom we typically see not entirely dressed, doing things to get attractive women to not appear on television, it's a little gay.

For $200 million, you should be sweeping the Pittsburgh Pirates with Bill Swarsky's Super Fans-style lopsided scores.

Shat in, Dames. She had her bag shat in.

Ummm. Sorry to burst your bublle, but those 2 and Mankind are the 3 faces of Mick Foley. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No way d00d I don't believe u

Oh I think NHL hockey needs some improving.

We're more excited that we won a game after trailing in the ninth. Who really gives a damn who it came off of. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Congratulations, you beat the Pittsburgh Pirates in extra innings.

But I would think that also, since those were built as multi-purpose stadiums, that a park configured specifically for baseball would provide much better sight lines. As for Busch Stadium, that one is the most acceptable of the cookie cutters, they did a great job fixing it up and all, but the new Busch looks like it could be even better.

YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAH RANDY!!!!!!!!!!!! GET RID OF THOSE BORING HOT CHICKS!!! THEY'RE TAKING PRECIOUS AIR TIME AWAY FROM PIMPTISTA!!!!!! YOU CAN HELP TOO, EDGE!!! YOU CAN DO WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET THOSE ATTRACTIVE WOMEN OFF MY TELEVISION. THIS CLUB IS FOR BOYZ ONLY, BITCHES!!!!!!!!

It wouldn't be a rarity. They'd be full-out gone. Win column, loss column, games behind column. That's it.

As I may or may not have said, shootout goals wouldn't count towards a player's total goals for the season, rather, the team that won the shootout would just win the game by one goal. We'll say that since the goals occurred after regulation and overtime, they can't be official goals. But all that means nothing in the postseason, because sudden death overtime is perfect as it is. Do you get the impression that I really wish there were no more ties? I mean seriously. The fact that the Stanley Cup went awarded in 2005 is going to ruin the integrity of the National Hockey League more than determining a winner in every game.

^ So true. Nobody gets through high school without The Wall.

But with the NFL's ridiculous overtime, ties are few and far between, so nobody complains too much. In the NHL ties can account for like 16 decisions per season.
