Paul Silas does the unthinkable and exercises authority over his players. Then he really goes crazy, and takes the high road by not letting the media get their mitts all over it.

Matt Clement is still out there.

I have a feeling this will ring true in Philly as well this year. I meant we're still aiming for the Central. Why would we concede the division before the 2005 calendar year even starts? Geez. As for Philly, like I said, Atlanta is the team until proven otherwise.

And all of first base is belong to him.

SOMEBODY BLOCK THIS TRADE

Cruz sucked on the North Side.

Oh hi. We're not contending for the wild card.

Until October, then anybody beats the Braves.

Numbers don't matter. Nobody beats the Braves.

There's the pitching I knew Atlanta would get.

Can I be you for a day?

No more than the NFL should for the Dallas Cowboys. As I understand with the Stars, the Gund brothers, who owned the Golden Seals that became the Barons that merged with the Stars, wanted to move the team back to the Bay Area, but the league (gasp!) overrode this. Eventually they gave in and granted an expansion franchise to the Gunds, who got to take their half of the North Stars to create the San Jose Sharks. Then Norman Green came in and bought the team and everything looked to be good, with the North Stars making it to the finals in '91, but the Met Center was getting too old and they couldn't replace it, so they moved to Dallas. What I never got was, why not the Target Center? I really wish the North Stars and Golden Gophers could have shared a rink. That would've been ideal, one huge Minnesota Hockey Center.

If the Marlins and Miami can't get off their asses to make a ballpark that actually DOESN'T suck more than Tropicana Field, and one that actually brings revenue to the Fish and not Fins, then fuck em.

And with that extra minute, who knows what you could do? I used my time that I saved up whilst suspended by not scrolling past the WWE to pull the wad of gum out of my mouth and snap it back.

That's cute.`

Sarcastic in my interpretation dead honest in the message itself

There was a period of my life where I was drinking tonic water straight. What was wrong with me??

I love when Banky shows his sensitive side.

It needs more fuckin' paint. How can you score in the paint when there's no paint? And get that stupid PHX thing offa dere. Come on, your colors are purple and orange, surely you can have fun with that gaudy combo. Don't be boring. Also: Milwaukee Bucks in Christmas colors again PLZ!!!!!! also, for fun, play on a really dark herringbone floor. That's different than regular pattern or parquet.

Leon?

Maddux (18-7, 3.26) vs. Leon (14-4, 2.89)

Correct. The media does not help people loathe Kobe. It's not needed.

Shyness, what's that. P.S.: I ph34r Greg Maddux with a personality. We'd get lines like "they call me a shampoo store cuz I got so much finesse" "they call me the GM cuz I'm callin all the shots from my office, and my office is the mound" "G-Money"

Shawn Bradley. Big dorky white guy. When BILL WALTON rips on you for being a big dorky white guy...good grief.

He's not dumb. He just lacks personality. Oh and I hate coddling the team and all, but I'm not going to call a 300-game winner who pretty much saved our ass for a few months of the season a retard.
