  2. i'm not sure who here can "cut the big check" or who would be willing to even admit it if they could. we could collect at least some money beforehand, or we could look at a 15-game plan to split up instead of a 40, it really all depends on how much interest we have.

  4. i'm in a for a few (3-5) games as well if anyone wants to do this.
  5. maybe you could try putting a group together on here to buy a 40 game plan (either 2 or 4 seats) and then divide up the games.
  6. ]My worry is that only the 40-game plans will have guaranteed playoff purchase options and if more tickets were allocated to the eople who buy 15 game plans, there would be complaints by the people who don't buy any plan about how playoff tickets are unaffordable and unavailable... wawawa etc. The Mets' can't win there.
  7. don't forget the Rays have Cliff Floyd!
  8. milwaukee would be worse for ratings. obviously i'm rooting for tampa to beat the hated phils.
  9. i just got emailed a yahoo basketball invite, was that one of you guys?
  10. AG/DC wrote: ="Centerfield"]6. Refusing to acknowledge their mistake: It was pretty clear after 2005 that he sucked. So when they built the team that was trying to win it all in 2006, you had to upgrade that position. Instead, they kept him, relied on him, hoped against hope until eventually his arm fell off. Maybe if we had addressed that spot in the rotation, we wouldn't have had to rely on 45 year old El Duque who went and got hurt during warmups before the playoffs. I'll disagree here. Anyone would try and redeem this guy. This isn't the issue. Once he's in your posession, you proceed and try to make something of it. Yeah, I guess they might have steered clear of dealing him because the talent they got in return would have forced them to again confront their folly, but that's speculative for the sake of feeling bad. I mean, it's obvious they liked the guy and saw more in him than was apparent. agreed. zambrano sucked, but not to the degree that you should discard him immediately while still under contract (like, say, kaz ishii)
  11. probably wise not to conflict with soccer as many of the nations participating care as much or more about soccer as they do baseball. on the other hand, i doubt many people in Japan, Korea, or any of the Western Hemisphere countries are going to watch synchronized swimming and shit like that when theres BASEBALL on. The olympics wants to kick you out? go head to head and show them who is more important.
  12. I don't take them seriously at all, while I do take Canada seriously.
  13. U.S. in the only pool with 3 "real" teams in it.
  14. i hate H2H. i'm not doing football at all this year (except for a pick 'em)
  15. ]Less than 300 ABs, more than 6 HRs of the guys you named only Belliard is a middle infielder
  16. i kinda disagree, he's a middle infielder and occassional corner outfielder with some power. i'm not sure where else you'll find that power off the bench.
  17. Perez, Ayala, Tatis, and Easley for me. No way do i offer it to Martinez, Alou, Hernandez, or Armas. I don't want 3 of those guys back at all, and I'd be happy to have Alou back only if he isn't "plan A" in the outfield.
  18. congrats to the winner. this was a terrible showing for me. in my long running NL only keeper league i was chasing 1st place at the beginning of September, but faded down the stretch and ended up in 5th, only a few points behind 3rd. in a new auction league started this year i finished 2nd in the standings, i was bouncing between 1st and 2nd for most of the month and the winner and i had already agreed to split the 1s/2nd prizes a few weeks ago with nobody near us.
  19. this does suck. its nice that the mets getting eliminated coincides with the jewish holidays, i'll be gone from the board until at least wednesday night, but maybe longer as i try to "get over" this craptastic season. see you all again soon.
  20. BMFC- i have no interest in opening a stadium with stupid interleague play, if anything i'd want to open with a traditional rival like the Cubs or Phillies
  21. ]He's been horrid two years in a row. he's fine as a STRICTLY L/L matchup guy, the problem is the Mets a) paid him like a setup man not a situational reliever and already have Feliciano for that role. Theres no room on the 25-man roster bullpen for Schoenweis and Feliciano.
  22. that was weird infield shift against Delgado, they couldn't put the regular overshift on because Jose would have promptly taken third and then home with the 3rd baseman in the SS position, so they put the SS behind the 2nd base bag and the 2nd baseman in short rightfield with the 3rdbaseman at his normal position. Delgado lined it hard to left but Willingham was there :/
  23. forget the 9th, THIS is the game
  24. BRAUN just homered to make it 3-1 brewers
  25. Brewers just tied it on a bases-loaded walk.
