  1. Let me put it this way. I went to bed after the 7th inning and we were up 1-0. I had NO DOUBT when I looked for the score this morning that we would lose. NONE.
  2. Ginter should have been up here out of spring training with White getting his walking papers IMHO. I have said it all year and I haven't seen anything to change my mind.
  3. Carlos Lee with his HUGE 4 points last night... Pickers were Mathew Soxheads and WinningUgly.
  4. The Bears took a big step Tuesday in making the new Soldier Field as attractive as possible in the coming years. They made sure linebacker Brian Urlacher would be there every Sunday during football season for a long, long time. As expected this off-season, the Bears and Urlacher have agreed in principle to a long-term contract extension intended to keep the Pro Bowl linebacker in Chicago for the rest of his career, according to a club source. Urlacher and general manager Jerry Angelo are expected to make the announcement official at a news conference Wednesday at Halas Hall. The deal is believed to approach in length and value the one signed by Baltimore Ravens linebacker Ray Lewis, the player to whom Urlacher's skills often are compared. Lewis signed a seven-year, $50 million extension last year with a whopping signing bonus of $19 million. That contract set the market for middle linebackers. In March, the Bills signed free-agent linebacker Takeo Spikes for six years at $32 million with $11 million guaranteed. Also in the off-season, the Dolphins locked up the nucleus of their defense, Zach Thomas, with a 6-year, $33.75 million deal with a $10.5 million bonus. Urlacher, one of the biggest bargains in sports last season with a $450,000 salary, had two years remaining on a contract scheduled to pay him $2 million next season and $2.1 million in 2004. The Bears took advantage of being $2.5 million below the $75 million salary cap, money expected to go toward Urlacher's pro-rated bonus. Urlacher's agent, Steve Kauffman, and the Bears had been talking about a new contract since the draft. Throughout the process, a source said Urlacher made clear a strong desire to stay and had no desire to test the free-agent market.
  5. Did anyone else notice that Ginter and Almonte got flip flopped? Ginter closed the game at AAA while Almonte set him up.
  6. After Sammy's fiasco tonight, the Cub's "magical" season may have just come to a screeching halt. They are beginning their June swoon anyway. Now they just have a taylor made excuse.
  7. rick white... no f***ing way..... put billy in... i am ok with that....glover, i can live with.... wunsch, good move.... sanders, never...... however, i see your point and if you put in Koch at that point then he has to go two innings if we score in the next inning, or someone else would have to close.
  8. I would like to see a 2000 throw back game. Think of the possibilities, we could get on base, bunt, steal bases, score runs, have guys hit over .300, it would be great!
  9. I don't think Rum bottles have cork
  10. Wife beating.... swept under the rug Comparing himself to Jesus... swept under the rug "Flintstone Vitamins"....swept under the rug coming to camp 20 lbs lighter after steriod testing begins...swept under the rug Getting busted with a corked bat on national TV...Priceless
  11. How about some corked bats, and a urine smell around the ballpark?
  12. Wait for the steroid part No you mean the "flintstone vitamins" What a f***ing fraud. :fyou Sosa, and all of your blind idolitors!
  13. THIS MIGHT BE THE BEST THING TO HAPPEN ALL YEAR!!!
  14. 1984 and 2001 are on my list. This one is way up there. But 1994 is the worst, not because of the way we played, but the way it ended.
  15. In the 5th round the Sox took Matt Nachreiner a pitcher http://teamonebaseball.rivals.com/viewpros...=3&pr_key=13622
  16. The Indians just drafted Juan Valdez in the 5th round. The good news is he won't ask for a big signing bonus because of his big endorsement deals
  17. Actually they said there was a big reason for that. EVERYONE who went last year wanted it that way. They said that they were cleaning the park with leaf blowers til almost 5 am and no one got any sleep at all. So I would say that is listening to feedback...
  18. They need to get Ruutu locked up, and then go get some talent!
  19. OMG A SS!!!! Wow we couldn't have done this rounds ago could we? A HS SS, boy that will save our system...
  20. http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/gen/wire?...sageId=16982803
  21. Hmm who wants to bet we take a pitcher with our next pick?
  22. They would have to take the rest of his entire contract if someone claimed him off of waivers
  23. The last thing we need to do is draft another closer. We are stacked in the relief pitching dept. we need more positional prospects in the IF and C.
  24. out of the first 8 picks in the 3rd round, 3 have been catchers. Altough the Ritchie kid (C from FSU) is still on the board.
