  2. How long before a pro sports team is called "The Vampires" or something similar.
  3. Floyd 1 Milledge 0.5 Oliver 2.5 Valentin 2
  4. Mike's Dad is a dick. Old people remember: Don't be like Mike's dad.
  5. More Milledge
  6. First baseball thread on the new Crane Pool Forum, post EZBoard crash
  7. All three names are two syllables.
  8. And that he hits like a 44:
  9. Ain't gonna happen.

  13. I'm reading a book that includes an interview with Arthur Frommer where he says very similar things about copy editors and their tendency to take away an individual authors voice whereas Frommer prefers to have the author and all his/her inconsistency transparent to the reader.
  14. If a small bone pops up anywhere on the body other than between the thighs I think it's a cause for concern.
  15. They're a fairly conservative investment. But here's my beef ... you loan the government some cash ... they pay you back with interest ... then they tax you on the interest of the money they paid you back that you lent them. What's the deal with that. Oh, wait this is the BARRY Bonds thread.
  16. Beltran 2 Franco 1 Glavine 2.5 Woodward .50 Wright 4
  17. The Braves beat the Cubs. I just noticed their in 2nd place now as well. The Phillies are a tough opponent but somehow I like having them as a buffer between the Mets and Braves all the same.
  18. I think my problem is: If he's saying Glavine greatly improved in this area over previous seasons with the Mets, well, yes I agree. If he's saying Glavine ain't doing bad for an old guy, ok I can buy that. But It really sounded to me as if he was proclaiming this as a standard of excellence for starting pitchers, then I think the standards are far too low.
  19. Why does Rose keep talking about Glavine making it to the 6th inning every game as if its a great accomplishment? Are the standards so low that its ok if the bullpen only needs to be taxed for 3 innings each start instead of 4-5? Personally I wouldn't start bragging about durability unless a starter is consistently going 7+ innings with multiple complete games.

  21. I prefer saying something like "The Marlins have been unable to get any runners on base over five innings." Just to be safe.
