  2. 'bout damned time!
  3. y'know... i'm really in the mood for a frito.

  11. the public humiliation was begun by lamb walking the ball over to first. what willie does from here is teaching his player a lesson.
  12. the colors hurt my eyes. but otherwise i like it a lot. anyway we can have the same background color as the sky in the masthead - that's a pretty, mellow blue.
  13. whew! good thing i'm not working tomorrow, or i'd be bored silly with no cranepool forum.
  14. bad boys and the rock entertain me. bad boys 2 was trying too hard, which is quite a statement for a michael bay flick. armageddon had about two entertaining moments - the opening meteor shower, and the two shuttles taking off at the same time. the rest of it was a suck-fest.
  15. DAMNIT! i suck. i did all my voting for the games late yesterday at work, but was going to post 'em today as i had to get home... looks like i miss out. sonofabitch...
  16. i liked it too. its not a movie a grown man should feel embarrassed to see. it really was quite good. fine cinema, no. best blockbuster i've seen in a long time - yeah. honestly, when i heard michael bay was doing the transoformers movie, i cried a little inside. i was afraid of a cross between bad boys 2 and T3. but my fears were certainly allayed. i'd easily slot this somewhere on the blockbuster scale as better than independence day, but a tad bit below T2.
  17. i like the 1-per-team rule. not only does it keep the less-fortunate teams interested, but it also sets up much more interesting post-ASG-ballot announcement discussions. like, you can't just say that freddy sanchez didnt deserve to be an all star over, well, whoever else plays second base - you also have to consider who else on the pirates is actually deserving, and subsequently who from other teams you'd then give the boot to, with all of the same implications to be considered there as well. its kinda like the nba salary matching thing with trades - sure, it makes it more frustrating if you're rooting for a team and want to see them make smarter personnel decisions, but if you're on the outside discussing potential roster moves, then it makes for much more interesting and involved discussions.
  18. well, last year, jose reyes had a 1.343 OPS with RISP, 2 outs, compared to rollins' 0.726 OPS, good for only about 7th among starting NL shortstops. this year, rollins has the lead, 0.934 to 0.797, 2nd vs about 5th ... in late innings this year, reyes has had 4 at bats with risp, and has no hits to show for himself, with a walk, a strikeout, and two runs scored. in late innings this year, rollins has had 8 at bats with risp, has a single, triple, a walk, and two strikeouts. wow! such a big difference!
  19. damnit, i have got to get on up off my ass!
  20. mets: pedro feliciano* (or jose reyes & _____ _____) phillies: pat burrell & _____ _____ * pedro feliciano debuted with the mets in 2002, but spent 2005 in japan. i'll claim that appearances in other leagues or other periods of time spent not under the control of the lifee franchise shall not be counted against the player, mostly as i don't feel much like doing all the fact-checking!
  21. how do the interleague games compare when played at the NL and AL parks separately?
  22. from wikipedia: "On November 23, 2005, the Mets traded Mike Jacobs, Yusmeiro Petit and Grant Psomas to the Marlins for Delgado and $7 million." so that first year cost the marlins about 11 mil, then, leaving 3 years, 41 mil remaining on the contract ($13.67M)
  23. anaheim - garret anderson edit... hmm... it appears as if my prior post was deleted, wherein i asked "hey, won't it be fun to name the longest tenured current lifers on all 30 teams?" elsewise, edgy's quote below makes no sense, doesn't it?
  24. i think that beltran's agent offered the yankees less cost to sign him than they were requesting from the mets.
  25. kerry wood?
