It's a knee, not an elbow!! He will most likely pitch but probably not a whole game. Of course Schilling ALWAYS piques my interest but I couldn't take him against the Cubbies.

Sidebar: If I am not in the top 3 by Sunday night.....I am not playing next year!

I guess I should be happy with 40 points last night.
Pedro out wityh a sore throat and PS gives us 12 points- Hey, better then negative numbers.

The rest of my few players that played gave me 28 points. Not bad if you figure

Javy Lopez didn't play- Went back to PR. to be with his wife who just gave birth

Marcus Giles out with the flu

Jose Guillen goes 0-3
and Rocco Baldelli only get one time at bat and goes 0-1

Four guys hurt, sick on leave, dam, if I could field a whole team I would have done great even with the 12 Points PS.

The worst part is I didn't catch this last night so I am stuck with the same problem today. Most guys will be fine for Saturday so I am caught with two days of the same problems!

Flu with in a team could mean trouble at any time!
who could have been passed the flu bug?

Question Hudson was pulled then Pedro went out- could it be that they are saving Pedro since they didn't need him with Hudson out?

You're thinking of Javier Vazquez... Lopez was unavailable for Thursday's game because of a bruised left leg (what a wuss)...

But yeah, I hear your pain. Mine was much more painful yesterday... :p And tonight, too, if Schill doesn't pitch well!

Yes. you are right Geoff. Bad legs and will be back Saturday so i am screwed tonight. Did you catch that last night or today? It is the pitcher that I was looking up who shot back to PR to be with his wife. I wonder if he took his girlfriend back with him?

I caught it today, about Vazquez (researching PS's for tomorrow). Didn't look at Javy yesterday since I had non-playing Piazza instead... :rolleyes:

Wow, JG, you surprised me... You're one who usually keeps top secret information like the Vasquez detail to yourself. I remember when you playfully scolded Bethie when she broke the news on Corey Patterson. :p

FS telling everyone about Javy... That I expect! Rookies... :rolleyes: :p

I didn't give up any info that would benefit someone else... if he WASN'T expected to pitch, I'd've said nothing

It doesn't make a difference after 3:00am you can't change your roster and he will be back and ready for Saturday.

God we are not aniamls here? or are we.
Did you see the knife Vercetti posted! maybe I'm missing things

Therein lies the confusion... I didn't know about the Vasquez thing until you posted it. I'm kind of confused on whether he'll start or not now. Will he be back or is he back already? Do the Expos already know and just haven't informed the league who the new starting pitcher is?

Obviously, as you guys can tell, I was leaning towards picking the Expos today.

Actually, you know what JG, you didn't help me out. You just made me more confused!

Bwa-ha! Bwa-ha-ha! Bwahahahahaha!!

Oh I remember that day like it was yesterday! Only because JG got to her to scold her before I did!

There are so few "tidbits" I know...yes I can be so selfish

And FS - just a wee bit of advice here, if I may...

Some of us (well, maybe only ME )don't travel to or read other threads at all. If you keep mentioning other people's names on THIS thread who don't frequent here or have an interest in baseball then you won't be surprised to find them all here some day. I don't mind saying that would really ruin my normally perky, happy days. Of all people, of course *I* don't mind going off-topic but let's be reasonable!

Just my 2 cents.

Now you've done! You've pissed Buffy off and invited the degenerates here. Oh wait, I was already here.

And as far as scolding me for Corey Patterson thing...I love to be slapped and pinched too.

That's right...I invaded this space. I've had a freaky, horrendous couple of days. Anyone doesn't like it can bite me.

I feel a little better now.

Hmm, notice anything 'devilish' about this picture? I can't bet on it, but I think that is the 2nd time he has scored that number this game...

Yo Quitter! Yeah Bethie - I mean you. You have the nerve to show your Bon Jovi face here? How do you sleep at night not knowing what place you'd be in - or better put - which two guys (or gal ) you'd be sandwiched in between?

You've got some 'splainin' to do. Quitting is for wusses!

And no, I NEVER get pissed. Are you kidding? I am remarkably optimistic. Mildly annoyed? Yeah, sometimes. But not any longer than about a minute and a half.....

Yes, I know what 2 guys I'd be sandwiched between. My total now is 1616, so I believe I'm on top of Bad Daddy.

And wuss????? More like alcoholic, manic depressive, homocidal maniac. Have you ever seen a pic of a crying baby under my posts? If the only thing I had to worry about was if I had a Dickey or a Woody.....(that's a whole other side discussion) I'd be a happy woman. I prefer to crash and burn by myself these days.

Welcome back, Bethie.

You gonna kibbitz or play?

Bethie said she was gonna play wi... by herself

Anywho - In about an hour I'll be off to a friend's birthday party doing all the things Bethie just mentioned, and more, so will likely miss all of the action tonight. I won't know how I did until tomorrow, after I wake up and crawl out from under some piece of furniture somewhere....

PS What I expected: "Schilling's start Friday will be closely monitored because of his troublesome left knee, the Arizona Republic reprots." At least I can check my phone for scores, but by 1am I may've forgotten all about it

I might say kibbitz if I knew what the hell it was.

Which ones, JG? There's lots to choose from what Bethie said! :p

- piss Buffy off
- slapped and pinched
- bite Bethie
- know what 2 guys you'd be sandwiched between
- on top of Bad Daddy (does he know about this?)
- alcoholic
- manic depressive
- homocidal maniac
- have a Dickey or a Woody
- be a happy woman
- crash and burn

I don't know either, Bethie, but I think it's dog food...

Let's see here.....

..... yup! that pretty much sums it up!!

Hmmm, excuse me here, but Didn't you mean to omit the one about being on top of Bad Daddy

Don't take it the wrong way - but the wounds from PLaw are still fresh - that prick bastid.

Nope Pork. YOU can't piss me off...sorry.

TOMORROW night is my night out. With any luck I will be in the same condition Sunday morning as Pork is tomorrow morning. But I aim to look 99% better

Out of all the things Geoff copied the only things that stick out are play with Dickey or Woody and be a happy woman.

And Bad Daddy...kick a gal when she's down why don't ya. Here, let me hand you a shaker of salt. Biatch!

Hey!! You can act like a man! Get OVER that prick bastid already.

I am on top of you now!

But I *am* on top of you... in the standings... whatever did you mean?

And Bethie, my Dickie or Woody sticking out...? Hey, you never know...

You lost me on this one - I was talking of Geoff and his list and Geoff being on top of me - where am I kicking a gal who is down?

I am always aware when a woman is down - gee I hope I am not slippin

[/b][/quote]Paint me confused!! Ok...I know I've been losing it, but I thought Doucheman referred to my statement of being on top of you if I came back. How is Geoff involved. You guys are too kinky for me.

Well, you did once call Pork a girl.

But I don't think he ever called you a biatch back before.

I usually save such adjectives for guys like Piazza who scored major points against my PS his first night back. Biatch.

Bragger! Oh, and before I forget, plaw.....5 families.
