Anyone ever hear of this? It's about a person who changes between a boy and a girl at will to suit their interests.
That concept is CRAZY.

Baseball seasons starts soon! What other sports folder can I lurk at now?It's funny you should ask!

I have nothing to add. I just want to see how many places I can make fun of mike on this forum.

Inquiring minds want to know!

You know what would be an awesome wrestling gimmick? A dumb as shit computer nerd who runs an internet forum. He could have this crazy stalker valet who buys the job.

You know, I still never found out why that gay porn that Leena certainly did not post said "HI ALAN."

Actually, it was moved to an entirely new forum. This forum has been allowed to grow and prosper now that alkeiper is not around to much it up with his crap. Like content and discussion. The forum sucked when we had that stuff.

So it's been five days since "the Keiper effect" has been removed from the Sports Forum. How's that working out? Traffic up? Posts becoming more enlightening? Thank god we demodded that vile hindrance Alan from our forums.

This guy is one of my favorite announcers of all time and for my money, the best. He also pulled double duty as a first rate interviewer. I'll be using him as both to save money. He was voted Best Television Announcer by the readers of the Wrestling Observer for four years in a row (1984-87) and is a member of The Wrestling Observer Hall of Fame...Lance Russell
My next guy has been a lead announcer for some time now but rose to fame as "The Professor", an expert analyst with a vast knowledge of the history of professional wrestling, particularly of the Japanese and Mexican variety. I'll be using him in that role, filling in the blanks left by my lead announcer and offering backgrounds on the combatants in the squared circle. He was voted Best Television Announcer by the readers of The Wrestler Observer five times (1997, 2002-05)....
Mike Tenay
I'm not certain if KKC wanted both announcers, but he can likely swap out a pick when he returns if he desires.

Hang on tominator after you make your pick. I've got Kamala's picks ready to go.
-
And already Paulino has been traded again to the Marlins for Hector Correa.
-
Fixed.
Beast's team is pretty interesting. Paige, Charleston, Lloyd, Suttles, etc. I would've taken those guys myself given the opportunity.
-
In all seriousness, I took El Dandy because he was one of the five best workers left on the board. I figure on getting him over by pairing him with Dusty Rhodes from time to time.
-
I just don't know about that El Dandy pick.Who are you to doubt El Dandy?
-
Now for my own selection. My own introduction can't do this guy justice, so let's hear from Bret Hart.
El Dandy

Time's up, so we can hit the next two picks.
King Cucaracha selects George "The Animal" Steele.

In a trade sure to generate no excitement from either side the Phillies sent Ronny Paulino to San Francisco for Jack Taschner.If nothing else, it means Chris Coste has survived Spring Training with his backup role intact.

Al, I saw the Giants/M's in Spring Training the other day and Pablo Sandoval looked like a complete stud. He hit a homerun, bunted for a single, beat out an infield hit, and probably would have stole second if not for a foul ball. What do you know of him?Jimmy summed up Sandoval pretty well. I would quote a comment I read on Baseball Think Factory.
Want to hear something interesting about Sandoval's 2008?Among hitters with a minimum of 150 PA, he saw the second highest percentage of curveballs (12.9%) and the 24th lowest percentage of fastballs (53.2%).
In other words, they were already pitching him like he was Ryan Howard (10th lowest % of fastballs and 16th highest % of CB). Folks seem to think the league is suddenly going to get wise to the guy; but the league already has. Check out the numbers for guys like Juan Pierre and Luis Castillo: those guys see 70% fastballs.
I'm not saying the guy will continue to hit .345; but he's not going to turn into Pedro Feliz either. He's already being pitched like he's Pedro Feliz and hitting better. He's some kind of freak of nature.
I ran a search on Baseball-Reference's PI, for players who stood six feet or under and weighed more than 230 pounds. The only hitters that came up were Prince Fielder, Bob Hamelin, Byron Gettis and Travis Snider. So at this point you have a player who's a switch hitter with a unique approach and a unique body type. What the heck do you make of a player like that?
As far as catching, I figure the presence of Buster Posey is going to make that a non-issue anyway. Sandoval is probably going to need to stick at third base to have value as a regular player. He may be better served in a valuable bench role, filling in at three different positions. I'm rooting for him. Unique, different players make the game more exciting.

We're just waiting on Fokai's pick to finish up the week.
-
Last pick of the week, RF Sam Crawford.
Crawford is MLB's all time triples king. 14 times he finished in the top ten in slugging percentage. He slugged .452 in an era where the league slugging percentage was .341. If he played today he would likely approach the 500 HR club.

Gert T's pick: The Patriot
I'll be happy to take other picks.
Someone want to explain

Leena is a notorious board hacker. She was first banned six years ago but kept trying to break in. Last week, Mike inexplicably sold half the board to her. She got rid of most of the mods/admins, who started their own board and took most of the established posters with them.
