As much as you may be praying for it I don't see him signing with Arizona and I'm not seeing many other teams that can be considered in the Southwest.

Dobbs 3K 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2007 I wouldn't be surprised to see A-Rod in a Dodgers or Angels uniform eventually. Brewers beat the Cubbies in the 12th inning last night after Prince Fielder's second home run of the night. Brewers are in first place in the NL Central, and leading by 2.5 games, as noted.

UseTheSledgehammerUh 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2007 At the College Night on the 2nd day of the year against the Atlanta Braves, it was Dollar Dog Night. I was in the 200 level, and above me there were tons of things being thrown into the outfield, and a NY Giants fan who wore an Eli Manning jersey was absolutely brutally beaten up by a group of college kids. Why would you wear such a jersey to Philly if not to look for trouble? The hot dog/pretzel/beer throwing began after Gordon blew the lead in the 9th and they had to keep stopping to clean the field.

As much as you may be praying for it I don't see him signing with Arizona and I'm not seeing many other teams that can be considered in the Southwest. Arizona isn't likely. I doubt they'd be willing to pay for him, plus we have a decent SS/3B already with Drew and Tracy. Anaheim is likely. I'd go to games just to see him.

Above Average 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2007 I've seen spies (other teams fans) before in our stadium, but they were probably a little more rowdy than normal. Still, you have to admit that it was funny. Not worth condemning the Philly fan base which has become an easy target nationally. The best is when we're getting blown out and start Eagles chants. I've gotten tons of dirty looks for that shit. As you should. Football sucks. It was dollar dog day again at Philly, and those nights tend to attract tons of college kids. They've had problems this year at other games already, for example a previous Phils/Astros game saw that fan run onto the field and make it to second base. As I am now out of college and officially had to become a respectable human being, I don't do that any more... but it was fun while it lasted. And even though we've had 'problems' at least we're making progress. The St Joes Prep kids didn't do anything stupid on opening day this year! We're evolving, slowly but surely.

Guest Richard McBeef Report post Posted April 24, 2007 I wish I could say that was the worst game for me, but it's still not. That game with the Reds where Zambrano and Ohman gave up 6 runs with a 5-0 lead is the nadir. This is close, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bored 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2007 Good lord the A's outfield is a mess. Not only is Mark Kotsay and Milton Bradley on the DL, Travis Buck and Bobby Kielty are banged up and have been unavailable the last couple days, now Nick Swisher leaves in the first inning today with an ankle injury. Marco Scutaro is now in right field and they have Danny Putnam in center who had to be called up from Double-A due to all the injuries. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

devo 0 Report post Posted April 24, 2007 I was starting to get sick of the nonstop media coverage of Alex Rodriguez's historic start, so I switched it to NPR on the way home, hoping to enlighten myself a little bit with All Things Considered. After an interesting story about the rebuilding of Southern Sudan, the show took a quick break before returning with its next story, Alex Rodriguez's historic start. It's really inescapable at this point. I am happy that the question has finally changed from "What's wrong with Alex Rodriguez?" to "What's wrong with the Yankees?", though.

Guest Richard McBeef Report post Posted April 24, 2007 Czech, has a part of you already started to miss Dusty Baker managing the Cubs? I can't even begin to describe the type of entertainment that man brought to Chicago. Well, we strand runners at second and third and mismanage the bench and bullpen. I'm not sure he's even gone! EDIT: Where in the world is tonight's White Sox game? Next Game: Tue., April 24 @ 7:10 p.m. CT TV: CSN+2 | Radio: WSCR 670 The Cubs are on CSN, the Bulls are evidently on CSN+ (CLTV) in addition to national coverage, so they had to invent another channel? The White Sox need a better broadcasting deal, too. Just put them back on channel 50 all the time and end this Comcast clusterfuck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
