A little, but not powerful enough.

Hey Douchebag: step, step, step, ...SWITCH!!

A little, but not powerful enough. [/b][/quote]Enough for me... Rolen and Edmonds both hit one out

Speak for yourself :p

Friday
Interesting, cuz I almost picked Webb.... and pretty damn glad I didn't!

I inch closer and closer to The Porkster. I bet you thought your 61 was a comfortable number. Not from me. This from the chick who doesn't know her offense from her defense.

That was just a faux paus, a slip of the tongue, a senior moment. I do know my offense from defense. Defense is what surrounds my back yard.

*Bada bing. Bada boom.*

Thank you. Thank you. Don't forget to tip your waitress.

Hey, are there any doubleheaders this weekend?

Yes back to back showing of the Law and Order and two full hours of the Simpsons!

What difference would it make to you? You'd miss 'em anyway.

Not in New York:




(from the NY Daily News)

"Arlene Aguirre must have thought she was dreaming: The mom, whose 2-year-old sons were born joined at the head, awoke to learn that her greatest wish had come true".

Too bad you got rid of him - he hit a HR today

Saturday Official (3 more points for PL & DB -- Pitts run last night was unearned)

The Amazing Johan Santana (I'm not sure of the source of this info or if it's exactly correct. I got it from one of my, um, "research" sources).

"In case you haven't been paying attention, we have a new dominator on our hands. He's Twins left-hander Johan Santana. And his recent stretch of sheer unhittability includes all of these feats:

Santana has ripped off 10 straight starts of four hits or fewer and no more than two earned runs (in 6 IP-plus). And no other pitcher in the expansion era (1961-present) has had a streak that long of starts like that. The previous longest streaks, according to the Elias Sports Bureau:

1989 Mike Moore, A's, 8
2002 Andy Benes, Cardinals 7
1994 David West, Phillies 7
1973 Bill Parsons, Brewers 7

Santana just ran off another streak of seven straight games with nine strikeouts or more. Last pitcher to do that: Randy Johnson, in 2001. Even Nolan Ryan only had one streak like that in 26 years (11 in a row, May-July, 1977).

That stretch by Santana also included five straight double-figure strikeout games. That's not unprecedented, but only four other pitchers in the last 20 years have done it.

Randy Johnson (seven times)
Pedro Martinez (six times)
Curt Schilling (five times)
Nolan Ryan (once)

Other amazing Santana feats:

* He made six starts in July -- and gave up a total of 14 hits.
* The poor guys who had to hit against him batted .095 in July.
* Going into his start Saturday, he'd given up three hits or fewer in seven straight starts.
* In 77 innings since June 15, he has almost four times as many strikeouts (102) as he has allowed hits (27)."

What the hell are you doing. You are going to jinx the guy.

Are you that hard up to talk about baseball or do you think that you are the only one who knows this. :rolleyes:

What even happened to not sharing those important things

Are you hung over or has someone taken over Pee's system and posting under his name.

I hate having a PS by myself. Another nail biter. I went to bed last night seeing everyone else' PS cleaning the floor with their opponent. I was sure I would be hanging curtains back up in my basement apartment this morning. I'm pleasantly surprised to see the 5 points LA gave up last night in the second inning still resulting in me getting 13 points.

Is Plaw jinxing you FS? You know, it's better to jinx with someone else then by yourself.

Actally, FS, I didn't know about the streaks until I read the piece above.

Of course I know the guy is hot. Obviously, even you know that, but I didn't realize just how hot.

And I don't believe in jinxes or curses.

I would be glad to be jinxed with you or Buffy at any time. By the way only 8 points Bethie!

8 points, huh? Instead of being jinxed with me, how about being jinxed by me?

Oh, never mind. We all know what my powers are in that department. Maybe I should start taking tango lessons.

OK, so you were so uplifted by what you found out that you had to go out and crow to the world?
Hey, remember what you preached over and over again.
"Let them do their own research", "we are here to win", "some of us take this serious".....
BRANDO VOICE: Has your head gone soft, with all that playing with...(and I don't want to know who what or where.)

NO jinxes or curses hu.....If history has show us anything, it is that Pee will get shown that he is wrong I think I remember telling you about history about a week or ten days ago.

The dance of lovemaking? That must be my problem. Take lessons? I think I might enjoy just watching.

See you can learn more, here on the old BB board then anywhere else.

For once (and I think the only time so far I've known him ) I think FS makes a good point here -- Why are you sharing this information before he pitches, let alone at all?

If Santana crashes and burns, you're gonna look like the biggest ass. But then again, it won't be YOUR fault (for jinxing it), and it won't be FS's fault (for cursing it); but it'll be Santana's fault. If Santana throws a no-hitter w/ 27 K's, then it's YOUR brilliance! :p

SAnTANa -- coincidence?

I was wondering if anyone was gonna get caught like I almost did. I had Bullschmidt in my lineup until I saw he played last night -- and very well, I might add (since I didn't pick him).

I was scrambling and juggling after 2am, so who knows WTF's gonna happen today for me. :rolleyes:

Saturday

I had Schmidt too, and changed at the last minute. They had the pitching all f-ed up yesterday. If I recall, they didn't have Sheets listed as starting yesterday either, and I think they showed him as starting today.

As far as Santana goes, I thought the info was interesting and just wanted to share it.

Anyway, if he pitches well and everyone takes him next time, myself included, that's good for me, right?

Hey, I don't know if I like what you are saying here

Allow me to paraphrase it for you, so you can be sure if you don't like what he's saying:

This is the only time since you've been a member that JG has agreed with something you've said.

No, it has nothing to do with agreement. It's more that he's made a good point -- or, well, ANY on-topic point for that matter. :p

Already playing defense?

What are the odds that Woody will get passed Colon today?

Wait, don't answer that. I forget you cannot preface a question with "what are the odds...." around THIS crowd... :rolleyes:

Of course, I WOULD like to see my Woody obliterate DB's Colon today.....
