Rollins stole third, one of the hardest bases to steal

:king:

[TheMojoPin]

Wow, I hate ESPN, but their HD is pretty fuckin' snazzy.

[TheMojoPin]

Awwwww, fuck, it's free hat night. I never go when they give out anything good...or anything at all. Cheap bastards.

not too shabby with the Slugging PCt against Lefties

His slugging PCt is .561 at Night

I predict Good things for Soriano

His numbers against Cole are pretty good, too.

Cole's sweaty mullet is really gross.

sidetracking

How bout them Royals

only 10 games Under

they are playing great recently (minus the Yanks Series)

:king:

[Jughead]

Im in my office they have it on in our lounge ....I can hear it down the hall..Kinda?..But Ill bet anything you guys play by play will be much better!!!

[TheMojoPin]

Jughead, how about that trade the Bears pulled off? A great team just got even better...

im at work, am viewing the game center on cbs sportsline

:king:

[weekapaugjz]

Jughead, how about that trade the Bears pulled off? A great team just got even better...

you talking about darwin walker? buffalo traded spikes and kelly holcomb for him but didn't want to play without a new contract from buffalo. if he failed to report, the bills would have received a 5th round pick. they traded with chicago for a 4th round pick. you would think spikes would have been worth more than a fourth round pick in the end, but hey, what can ya do.

[TheMojoPin]

I thought the Bears traded a 5th round pick for him.

[King Hippos Bandaid]

That Sucks Weeks, Spikes is a very good player

The Bills had a good defense last year , just a lil Inconsistent


I cant wait till football starts

athough I am a Giants Fan

but I am more anti Randy I mean anti Jets

Hope there are some fantasy football leagues started here



:king:

you're right, im a retard.

the bills defense was awful last year. they couldn't stop the run for shit. i don't think they are going to improve at all this year with losing spikes, fletcher, and clements on d.

you know that was 05 when they had a better defense

last year you tanked it

I drafted Mcgahee on 3 of my FF teams

he really disappointed


I still enjoy cheering for any enemy of the Jets


Will Coughlin last the Season in NY

:king:

[DarkHippie]

did theyjust say kerry wood was coming back? why even bother? he'll be on the dl in 2 weeks again

[TheMojoPin]

He's pitching 2 innings tonight and if that goes well he'll be activated and back with the club by Thursday. I might get to see his pitching return on Friday on top of Zambrano starting against the Mets...could be a great day!

[TheMojoPin]

Snazzy running, over the shoulder catch in foul territory by Lee!

[King Hippos Bandaid]

a Pitchers Duel in the Making

Lily and Hamels are in the top 20% of NL Starters

:king:

[Jughead]

Walker appears to be an ideal fit in the Bears defense and figures to help limit the number of double-team blocks that Pro Bowler Tommy Harris will have to survive....Thanks Mojo That's good news...

[TheMojoPin]

Crud. Rowan hits a 3-run shot.

[DarkHippie]

aaaaand gone!

Jinxy Mcjinx Jinx strikes again

I suck


:king:

[TheMojoPin]

Lilly not looking good at all tonight.

[Peeps]

Walker had some good years in Philly, he could help the Bears. He's no Tank Johnson though.

[Jughead]

The Bears on Sunday bolstered their defensive line by acquiring veteran tackle Darwin Walker from the Buffalo Bills in exchange for an undisclosed pick in the 2008 NFL Draft.
Sorry Back to the game!!!

[King Hippos Bandaid]

lily's Pitch Count is too High for him to get a Win, its a loss or ND for Mr. Lilly, whom i have started in FBB

:king:

I have Hamels going for me. Too bad I traded Ryan Howard.

[TheMojoPin]

Oh, giant bowl of chili mac...soothe my pain.

[DarkHippie]

Bourn just did a nice header

[TheMojoPin]

Oh man, that's gotta hurt. His one leg stumbled and then his entire body weight came down flat on the other one. Ouch.

[epo]

That looked bad. Of course I'll try to refrain from making rude "Wrigley Field is a dump" type of comments.

:huh:

[DarkHippie]

they can't all have giant drunks sliding into a pool of beer whenthere's a homerun

[TheMojoPin]

:huh:

He fell because he ran right into the bullpen mound without looking. How does that make it a "dump?"

[epo]

The raised bullpen mound on the playing field, in the undersized stadium.

If that doesn't do it then the urinal troughs in the bathrooms do.

[epo]

they can't all have giant drunks sliding into a pool of beer whenthere's a homerun

That doesn't make him a bad person.

But seriously I hope Bourn is gonna be ok. That kid's whole game is based on speed....

[TheMojoPin]

The raised bullpen mound on the playing field, in the undersized stadium.

If that doesn't do it then the urinal troughs in the bathrooms do.

It's a classic layout. Sorry we don't pen them off and cap it with a giant plastic slide.

And I'd say they should keep the troughs, just make some more bathrooms. Those troughs make the peeing process much quicker.

[TheMojoPin]

The Riot showing some random LSU power. GEAUX CUBS!

[Ritalin]

Oh, giant bowl of chili mac...soothe my pain.

Chili Mac's the take out 5 way chili place on Broadway?

[TheMojoPin]

Bah. Not how I wanted this homestand to start. Cubs suck against lefties as it is, but Cole Hamels was REALLY good tonight. I'd say they'll make it up tomorrow except Jason goddamn Marquis is starting. Ah well, split the series, you bums!

[epo]

Brett Myers looked great at the end. Did I hear Rick Sutcliffe in the ninth saying it was dangerous for the Phillies to be using him in the closer role?
