I guess because the Giants were in the region first? Alls I know is that the Giants blocked an an A's attempt to relocate to the South Bay, leaving Oakland with such unattractive options as: Oakland (current digs), Fremont, and Oakland (new ballpark? yeah, sure!) again. Given those choices, I'd just as soon move ninety minutes north to Sacramento. As the largest city in the Bay Area, San Jose would be a natural fit for either the ML A's, AAA Giants, or even the NFL 49ers (who are looking to move to Santa Clara, just on the SJ outskirts). And while I'm at it, the Raiders need to go back to LA, but the sweetheart deal they got from local lawmakers means that will not happen (Raider games rarely sell out, meaning no local telecast, but Al Davis is reimbursed by the city for all seats not sold).

The A's AAA squad (Rivercats) is in Sacramento and the Giants are in Fresno. I've been to Raleys Field to watch the Rivercats and will be there again when the Zephyrs pay a visit. It's a great venue, particularly for kids. For the life of me, I can't understand why the Giants don't jump into San Jose. I guess they feel that that particular market is pretty safe in their camp? The A's are/were prevented from moving there due to territorial constraints (think Orioles as a roadblock to th Nats) so they are now relocating to Fremont, which is in the mddle of nowhere.

Anybody willing to pony up some cash to make this interesting?

]Don't go to Disney World until your child is old enough to ask you to take him/her there. I would add, "don't go to Disney World until the Hollywood writers strike is over" (ABC and Disney are partners: picketers and protesters were making their case--effectively I might add-- outside of the local Disney store during Christmas week).

Right now, this team does not have a 12.5% chance of winning the WS. That said, I would have done exactly as you, and for exactly the same reasons. What were the odds for, say, the NL pennant? Or NL East?

Forbes Magazine: Mr. Met 3rd-Best Mascot in American Sports

It was a three horse race. And the sausages (sausagi?) are not the Milwaukee masot-- Bernie Brewer is. -

Good man. The CPF appreciates your work and, seemingly, your lack of a social life. j/k

A former student of mine, now finishing law school, just had an article published concerning copyrights and fantasy sports (do athletes "own" their likenesses, stats, etc)...pretty interesting, if esoteric, stuff. NYMR, if you are interested I can send it your way.

I'm curious to see who won (but too lazy to do the work myself). I do see that I predicted a sub-90 win campaign.

I guess that means fans and players can no longer chew gum or tobacco at the stadium, lest they be caned.

]I'm way behind on this one. Just some good natured ribbing at Val's expense. He is on a Rogers-like (Rogersian?) rant against the name of the new Shea, and the fact that Met haters will refer to "Citi Field" as "Shitty Field".

Rumor mill in the Bay Area has Mark Kotsay and his piece of ass wife heading to Atlanta to replace Andrew Jones. http://oakland.athletics.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20080111&content_id=2343917&vkey=news_oak&fext=.jsp&c_id=oak Someone please post a picture NOW.

Never mind "the Jake", it'll always be "the mistake by the lake" for me.

I was looking for an image of Harry Minor. The search engine asked if I meant "hairy minor" I logged off as quickly as possible.

A for profit museum. Is that common?

Do it. Five unknowns for a Cy Young winner?

Welcome, I think you'll find this a place to spend countless hours that you should be spending elsewhere.

]Also have to show a reckelss disregard for the truth in a libel case. Which is what makes it so VERY hard to prove...the accused can always state that they honestky believed the allegations they were making (or reporting).
-
I believe slander is spoken and libel is written/published but both are (or can be) defamatory.

Mets Fans? You'd do better selling Mets heaters this time of year, but what do i know? -
Whether you admire Leyland or despise Leyritz, it's still tragic for the victim and his/her family at this holiday season. Stepping down from soapbox....now.
