    ]Hell look at cards from that era, half the players looked stoned or high or something. Maybe it was the lighting of the cards or something, but its something that was very prevelant during those years I was going to say this is the most ridiculous thing I've ever heard, but I didn't feel like reading all your posts again to verify it.

    ]Hold it, you're not that pretty. Love it. _____________________ A brief (as in, don't blink) shot of the ball going through Buckner's legs is the only Met related item that I can find. I've only seen it about 100 times though so I may have missed something. Can't beat the music really, either.

    One of my all time favorites. I have this on tape. A little too much of Ali, the Babe, and Michael (this was obviously right around the same time that those three headed ESPN's top 100 athletes of the century countdown) but still pretty fucking great.

    ]Don't run away from your perspective just because Kay is on your side. Well, I wasn't really. But thanks for the support.

    Great job CF.

    For me, at least, it's less about poking fun and more about expressing admiration.

    Seeing Michael Kay agree with my position...that the "rule" you shouldn't say the word no hitter is dumb superstition...makes me rethink it. Of course, I never equated it with the Holocaust.

    I was at that game....and will be at tonight's. Can't wait.

    Send it to his editor and you may get a job offer.

    If Portman's character "Evie" is to be totally debased and dehumanized during her imprisonment, to the extent that she is completely broken down, then where is the requisite "nude shower scene" or other moment of sexual humiliation or torture? They show a bit of a shower scene, but all you see is her upper back. Now, not only does this annoy me because i want to see Natalie Portman naked (which is a good enough reason), it again underlines the way the movie pulls its punches. Was the shower scene really about "pulling punches" or just a way of getting the point across without having to show nudity? I think the audience got the idea that she was being broken down without a naked shot. Like you, I'm for a Natalie nude scene...in fact I think she should have had a nude scene in all of her movies since she turned 21. But I'm not sure that I agree with your point.

    Oh and by the way that entire article is bullshit, since it's entirely based upon the premise that the Mets would've paid the same amount that Texas did. If they had signed ARod it would've been for a lot less. Not to mention that that was....oh....five years ago. It's time for another game of "I have no idea what to write about so let's bash ARod."

    Do we still have that "you think you're a sportswriter thread"? I couldn't find it.

    Saw it in theaters. It entertained me. Somewhat different than the average action flick, which is refreshing.

    Do the Twins do that every year? The A's do.

    ]D-Dad and I are back up to having seen baseball in every current major league stadium. Impressive. I've visited 4. I've got work to do.
  21. Elster88
    I'll buy that.

    So they'd rather have Julio and LHernandez instead of OHernandez and prospects.

    How does the cutoff date work for playoff rosters? Does a guy have to be on the roster by a certain date to be eligible to play in the playoffs? Also, would adding Sierra (or whoever) mean someone has to get bumped from the 40? And if so, what would be the risk of that? Does the bumpee have to clear waivers?

    Nothing like a nice heartbeat irregularity in the middle of the day to let you know you are alive.
