Am I being forced to change my pick of Soriano then?
-
I was at school and walked into the teachers lounge and and the breaking news came up saying that she had died. I stood there shocked for a moment. It was more from surprise then anything.
-
Wow, the ending of the episode caught me out of the blue. They agreed to break up and he believes that she had a miscarriage. Instead it was a lie and she had an ultrasound. The ending of him thinking she was being honest with him while seeing that was actually heartbreaking.

On the ABC Saturday Night movie of the week we present to you Lust In Space, starring Bill Paxton, Anne Heche, and Helen Hunt.

I'm not sure Soriano has ever "played" second base despite what it said on the scorecard. I know he never played 2nd base very well. I just needed a second baseman for my lineup, and he use to play the position. I liked having a guy that could get the stolen bases. I already knew that he had a low OBP but I was willing to sacrificing it for the SB's. But as Al pointed out in his post, Soriano is not particularly good at stealing bases. By the way, I'm not trying to pick on you. It's just fun for discussion. His conversion rate is not great, but he has enough speed to try and send him. I totally understand the facts you laid out. It is just I liked having him as leadoff with my lineup. To me it seemed that with a couple of innings always going 8-9-1 hitters I wanted to have a chance for a power hitter at the leadoff spot, and with Jason Bay and Joe Mauer as the anchors back their I think this would add some added punch to the offense. 1. 2B Alfonso Soriano (I moved him back to his old position of 2nd base + he gets SB's) 2. SS Michael Young (.314 batting avg and 100 RBI's ) 3. 3B Miguel Cabrera (so young and already so good) 4. RF Vladimir Guerrero (.382 OBP works for me plus he has power and some SB capabilites) 5. DH Travis Hafner (so scary to face this guy in between Vlad and Morneau) 6. 1B Justin Morneau (finally showing his potential) 7. CF Vernon Wells (needed a center fielder with good all around numbers) 8. LF Jason Bay (flys under the radar and an OBP of over .400) 9. CA Joe Mauer (nicely sets the table for Soriano and Young, plus the bottom of my order has 2 men W/ a .400OBP)

Rumor out of the St. Paul Pioneer Press has the Vikings offering the Cardinals the 7th overall pick plus an undisclosed player or two for WR Larry Fitzgerald. As a Cardinals fan I hope this is not true.

I'm more interested in finding out the reasons why people didn't pick Utley at second. I was going to say Yankee homers, but I noticed that there were votes for Soriano and Durham as well. Who knows? Those guys aren't even in the same ballpark as Utley, as far as I'm concerned. Well the reason that I chose Soriano was that I felt like having a man that could get me some stolen bases at the leadoff spot. Plus he has some pop in his bat to drive in my 8 and 9 hitters Bay and Mauer.

Which movies were those? Was it Skinemax type films?
-
Well, he is my number 7 batter. Not like I am "expecting" great things from that spot.

This was a fun little exercise to take part of. 1. 2B Alfonso Soriano (I moved him back to his old position of 2nd base + he gets SB's) 2. SS Michael Young (.314 batting avg and 100 RBI's ) 3. 3B Miguel Cabrera (so young and already so good) 4. RF Vladimir Guerrero (.382 OBP works for me plus he has power and some SB capabilites) 5.

For some reason I thought that was Leena, but only for a split second.

Hell, -40 is no big deal. All you need to do is let the car warm up a little and let wear an extra sweater.

Glad to see that someone else liked Tatanka back in the day. I also marked out for.... Razor Ramon Mr. Perfect Meng (when he first came to WCW) Lord Steven Regal Ahmed Johnson (I am amazed at how much he keeps being brought up) Arn Anderson

Bill Plasckie could probably find a cracked-out whore. Rachel Nichols would have no problem getting some. Jackie McMullen would have a snowballs chance in hell of getting any. Same with Bob Ryan.

Wait.....so Burrell isn't DiMaggio? I must thank the Philadelphia Daily News for breaking that news to me.

$2.09 in NW North Dakota right now. Seems strange since we have 12 drilling stations surrounding the town. I thought it would get below 2.00.

Damn that sounds like an awesome issue.

ARRRRGH!!! And I thought we were rid of that stuff once they did away with Hypertime.

I am glad to see the Cardinals take a chance with a new coach instead of hiring a retread like Mike Sherman.
