    Cubs are whipping the Astros, 9-0 in the 4th.

    There's actually a very good scene in Rocky Balboa where Rocky is talking to his son about life and how winning is done, which is very appropriate in this context:

    Yes, I saw it. Rocky Balboa was surprisingly good. I really enjoyed it - it redeemed the series for me after the horrific failure of Rocky V. Spider Rico is in it - Rocky owns a restaurant, called Adrian's, and Spider frequently eats there. At one point, he goes down to the kitchen and starts watching dishes, over the objections of Rocky. I wouldn't call him retarded though.

    Pittsburgh absolutely fleeced Seattle. Wow. Snell is... well... I'm not sure what the hell is wrong with him, but he used to have something and it disappeared about two years ago. Jack Wilson, as I have maintained for years, is the single ugliest baseball player I've ever seen, and I'm very glad that he's left the National League so I don't have to see that disastrous-looking face of his as much as I would have before.

    I'm trying to imagine all the advertisements Paulie would manage to squeeze onto his catcher's mask.
  6. Valadius
    Wow. That's quite a contrast.

    If you had to guess, which great players from the Era of Steroids chose not to partake in them? My first guess would be Ken Griffey Jr. He was just too naturally talented, in my opinion, and had a good head on his shoulders. I just can't see him cheating.

    I agree that the one on the far right looks OK.

    We just keep getting this season turned right round...

    If I had to rate Bernazard on the player development that occurred during his tenure, I'd guess that he's somewhere in the middle of major league teams. Like around 14-17. Which isn't bad, but I'd like to expect something in the top 5.

    Accusing Adam Rubin the way he did... he doesn't have much longer.

    Let's keep getting this season turned right round...

    Knowing the Washington Nationals, he'll be brought in as General Manager any second now...
  14. Valadius
    Don't forget the incomparably annoying John Sterling.
  15. Valadius
    And when did we start posting IGTs the day before?
  16. Valadius
    Oh please. Gillibrand's got a heck of a future.

    Great Rickey quote: ]"They kept that s--- a secret from me ... I wish they had told me. My God, could you imagine Rickey on 'roids? Oh, baby, look out!" � Henderson on steroids, The New Yorker, Sept. 12, 2005

    Okay, I know I was gone for a while, but: What the hell does "SHaMs" mean?

    I'm just scared what happens when Daddy Wilpon is no longer around and Jeffy takes total control.
  20. Valadius
    We're getting this season turned right round.
  21. Valadius
    How bout them triples?
  22. Valadius
  23. Valadius
    Yup.

    VERY funny story about growing up in Oakland, waiting for Reggie Jackson outside the ballpark for an autograph, and getting a pen with Reggie Jackson's name on it.
  25. Valadius
    Thank God, he got an A's cap.
