  1. so, who knows how to call off a bet with a bookie, I had $500 put down that she'd lose the bet, but now how do I get it back from him? Anybody? his last name was Rose. (j/k)
  2. Boston wasn't helped out much by not letting any black players play for them until 1959. The Red Sox buy more talent than the Yankees. The difference is that the Red Sox can't get it right and the Red Sox get more sympathy
  3. http://www.kansascity.com/mld/kansascity/s...rts/6342735.htm There's just something that seems odd, in the scene of Pena dancing. But, he has done a great job here. Keep on Dancin! As for Lima, I think I found one of his mambo songs. It's not too bad.
  4. I just realized that this must be part of some weird scheme. If Gonzalez goes onto the DL for 15 days, the Rangers can't trade him in the first place. You can't trade players on the DL. I'm sure he just screwed something up on the puke-turf in Tampa Bay
  5. Realignment idea #1- Cincy/Chicago East: Boston New Jersey New York Philadelphia Toronto Midwest: Chicago Cincy or Chicago Cleveland Detroit Indiana Southeast: Atlanta Charlotte Miami Orlando Washington Central: Memphis Minnesota Milwaukee New Orleans San Antonio Mountain: Dallas Denver Houston Phoenix Utah Pacific: Golden State Los Angeles Portland Sacramento Seattle ---- #2- Clippers in KC East: Boston New Jersey New York Philadelphia Toronto Midwest: Chicago Cleveland Detroit Indiana Milwaukee Southeast: Atlanta Charlotte Miami Orlando Washington Central: Kansas City Memphis Minnesota New Orleans San Antonio Mountain: Dallas Denver Houston Phoenix Utah Pacific: Golden State Los Angeles Portland Sacramento Seattle
  6. Gonzalez left a game early limping after running to third (he was hit by a pitch) Go figure, he's either hurt or faking it to avoid a trade, unless he got hit in the leg. If you're hit in the back, you usually don't limp as a result
  7. the country with the fights is Taiwan
  8. If I understand correctly from my Sabres t-shirts that I got for some reason. the Sabres logo involves a buffalo. Buffalo is also a bit close to Toronto. And another team in Rosemont might work, if the Bulls weren't chronically bad now too. You can't put another bad team there and expect success. They'd be in the shadow of the Bulls
  9. Teddy Ruxpin's revenge
  10. As for Kansas City. The Kemper Arena roof blew off once, but that was in a freak storm. I'd like a new arena, but I don't know where it'd fit. The arena I am impressed with the most is the Phillps Arena in Atlanta. Alot of Basketball arenas are basically the same. One thing I'd like would be some sort of glass ceiling over the court. Although most of the NBA season would be played during cold times. Another appealing idea. Make the KC team the best deal in the NBA. Sorta like how the Royals have the lowest ticket prices in sports. As for Buffalo.. no. They couldn't keep a team the first time. Plus every sports team that has ever been in Buffalo has been called Bills, Braves, Buffaloes.
  11. I'm not sure what the problems were with the Kings. But, I did find some info. I found that a Sacramento group brought the team in 1983, which is a sign of doom. As for Kemper Arena. The one problem I have with it is the location, but it is close to downtown. If it isn't the best thing out there (Does the NBA insist on arena extortion like Selig does with stadiums in Baseball?) then the majority of games could be played in KC, with a few in St. Louis (against the Pacers or Bulls), one or two in Fayetteville's Bud Walton Arena (against the Grizzlies?). You never know. But, given the right attitude, a team can succeed. The Clippers in Buffalo and San Diego did wear powder blue, like the Royals here in KC. I would rename the Clippers if they came to Kansas City. Clipper is a sea thing, there are no oceans near Kansas City. Kansas City Cheetahs? Kansas City Comets?
  12. What about Kansas City, Missouri?
  13. That insistance on a new contract is another problem. Who would give in to those terms? not KC.
  14. but with Gonzalez's reluctance, this is believable. The problem with this whole thing is that Gonzalez seems to like changing his mind alot. Mention that to the agents he's fired. Gonzalez might turn down a trade tomorrow. He might accept it. he might insist he wants to stay in the AL, or he could change. Gonzalez's attitude is just.. odd.
  15. Tim Kurkjian just reported on ESPN news that Juan Gonzalez was balking at going to the Royals because "the pennant race would put added pressure on him". Pressure is also his reason to keep out of pinstripes. If this is based in reality, then it is a very bad sign. But refusing trades and thwarting your team's future is the wrong thing to do. If he comes to Kansas City, then, good, but he won't have alot of room to fuck things up here. I just don't like his attitude. He's too fickle.
  16. Juan doesn't want to play on a contender like KC because he doesn't want the pressure. Suck my dick, you pussy. Just go home. If you don't want to play with a contending team, then just go home and allow for the Rangers to concentrate on the future and not your fickle nature. It's time to get tough on Juan. If he doesn't accept a trade by the deadline. Just tell him to go home. If he doesn't want to leave and play for somebody else, he can go home and play for nobody. Juan, if you can't handle pressure, you should retire right now. The Rangers can finish last without you.
  17. All in all, this is a rather unfortunate time for him to die. If this is a normal death, nobody is really going to believe it. Face it, people will think that this guy was killed. Unless you just think he killed himself somehow. Hive, that's sad to hear. Hopefully George Tenet won't go on any canoe trips.
  18. http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/europe/07/18...elly/index.html I'm sure it'll be a suicide I mean, a guy who's report was overhyped ending up dead? I wonder what the "cause of death" would be? Dead men tell no tales.
  19. They produced stuff that showed Rose bet on the Reds to beat the Expos. You see, one thing is that Rose was supposedly having money problems and he also had a gambling problem. Even ASSOCIATING with gamblers is a big no-no in Baseball. I'd say there is alot to say that Rose did more than that. One problem wth betting on your own team is that it will manipulate your decision making as a manager. Plus, you'll probably give out hints about the team (like who is playing) to the gamblers to help them win money. The "jury" decided nothing really, they thought Pete Rose should be in the hall, and they also thought he bet on baseball. I don't get the "If he just admits it, everything will be fine" mantra. If he admits it, you're going to put him in the hall anyways? You're going to put a man who violated that rule in the hall of fame. I missed most of the trial since there was a Royals game on and there was no chance of Johnnie Cochran showing up in the middle of that game. Did both sides forget that the Hall of Fame is a private organization and that it's not really controlled by major league baseball? that the hall changed their rules when Rose was about to get in. So, what this shows is that I can get 4,000 hits and then bet on my team and I should "pay the price" (what has Rose paid? lost money from selling his stuff? jail for income tax stuff?) and get into the hall of fame? Let's reinstate the Black Sox then, they paid their due, right?
  20. I like this Griffey. I get a perverse pleasure out of watching things go wrong for him. Ya know, when you think about it, alot of the second-generation guys today had fathers on the Yankees (Bonds, Griffey, Alomar, Alou) and none of the sons actually played for the Yankees. I don't hate him because he never played for the Yanks. I hate him because he's a cocky, lying sack of shit. I never said you were mad over a lack of Griffey. I'd face it here.. Griffey was not the same after leaving the Kingdome

  22. You all have heard of Orlando Cepeda, right? Put up better numbers than Aaron in his first few years, but got derailed by injuries. Hit about 350 or so homers. Griffey may want to think about changing positions or moving to the AL
  23. The nighttime is the right time, The nighttime is the right time
  24. Arenas is the one that wants to go to the Clippers and then, nobody could find him!
  25. that's because this is for the AL awards. You remember what league Dontrelle is in, right?
