If Pettitte retires that might open the door to acquire Lackey. Wouldnt be surprised if that happens. Theres also the Matsui/Damon factor one of them wont be back. Posada could even be DH in some games next year

Sure I could. I could be a Brewers fan.
Gomez is fucking horrendous. He has had any sustained quality production on any level. Have fun in the cellar for the forseeable future, creepo.
And no, Prince is not resigning in Milwuakee. LIVE IN THE NOW.

You guys becoming the new Pirates is perfectly timed with old Pirates finally getting a bunch of decent young players. The 100-loss season is right around the corner! The few fans that still show up, however, will be distracted by the meat races and the failure slide while Ryan Braun curses himself for being even dumber than he usually is for signing that shitty extension. Bread and circuses. Just go back to the AL where the "people don't give a shit"-quotient for the Brewers is marginally less oppressive.

You are like a young Blowhard, except way less fun.

Why do you guys even bother having a roof? Everything still gets all soaked and humid from all the cheese and processed meat-sweat.

The Dodgers front office is becoming a war of the roses with The divorce of Frank and Jamie McCourt. Under CA law shes entitled to half. Furthermore theres a 600+ page deposition against Jamie saying that she was incompetent etc. She was fired along with 7 executives she hired. While the Baseball operations isnt affected this is still bad for the organization
As for eating crow? "They were the better team this series," Rollins said Wednesday night. "Do I think we're the better team? I really do. They just executed. I think we weren't playing bad, but they were playing that much better. ... They got the hits, we didn't. It's that simple."
Yea, i really find nothing wrong with that comment.
Everyone thinks they are better than anyone else.
But being that he stunk up the joint after he made a stupid prediction, he should pipe down.
I would have no problem with Lee Werth or Utley making those comments, though i don't have that big a problem with Rollins making it either.
Its just the NY papers trying to make a story on a slow sports week after the WS. The Knicks being an embaressment and nothing football til tomorrow morning after the games.

But I would almost guarantee that the question he was asked wasn't in the context of "Hey, Jimmy, are you going to eat crow?"
I've seen this happen enough times (especially in the Post and Daily News which I'll read during baseball season), where they cherry picked that to fit the tone of the article they wanted to write.
He was probably asked about the series and he said "They were the better team this series" and then so on with the rest of the quote.
That would read much less inflammatory than the whole unapologetic, defiant spin they put on it.
