Colonel Flagg I'm not worried. (Yeah, right!)

We're also bringing a huge Twins flag with us. From what I hear the players are very accommodating when it comes to autographs in spring training so hopefully we can get the flag filled up with signatures.

Kitsa I think the only reason any guy cares is that it may (allegedly) have brought Jessica Alba's market value down a little bit.

Colonel Flagg First I've heard of it. Then again, I could care less about Derek Jeter and any of his Yankee teammates. And yes, that includes A-Rod.

Kitsa I'm amazed by how many pages there are out there about Derek Jeter and his hypothetical herpes.

WhiteRat Roughly a week from now my roommate and I will be driving down to Tampa and Ft. Myers to catch the tail end of the Twins spring training. If anyone is interested I'll try to get some pictures of the games. I think they are playing the Red Sox, too.

Colonel Flagg Apparently not.
Mar 15th, 2009 01:14 PM
WhiteRat Does anyone really care about the WBC?

Colonel Flagg US gets their asses handed to them by Beltran, Rodriguez, Delgado and Lopez. Mercy!

Now they need to beat the Dutch to stay alive.

America's pastime indeed.

Clemens is a c-sucking bastard, and deserves all that he has coming.

Kitsa I have got to get to a Dayton Dragons game this spring. I missed out on that awesome fight last year when the worlds of hockey and baseball came so very close :/

pac-man Good point, but there were plenty of dissenting voices in the media even when the rest were content watching Big Mac hit balls to Mars. The ones who knew are probably as fine with it as many fans are.
Feb 19th, 2009 07:35 PM
El Blanco Ya, the big difference is that supposedly, McMahon was requiring it of his guys.

Can we put all the sports writers that knew it was going on over the coals as well?
Feb 19th, 2009 03:21 AM
pac-man lol... I like the comment he made (even though McMahon was thought to have been actively giving his athlete's steroids) because I do feel as if Selig bears a certain amount of responsibility. Plus I found that sweet poster. We lost the war on drugs.
Feb 18th, 2009 11:32 PM
WhiteRat No, I was only 15 back in '98.

My mom voted for him and believe me when I say that I still giver her shit about it to this day.
Feb 18th, 2009 02:06 PM
pac-man You voted for him, didn't you?
Feb 17th, 2009 06:39 PM
WhiteRat That fact that you used a quote by Jesse Ventura (although i'll begrudgingly admit that he has a point) is laughable. That guy is a joke and is also bat shit insane.
Feb 17th, 2009 04:31 PM
pac-man A-Rod is trying his best to do damage control and garner sympathy. His statement today wasn't too shabby, but his choking up moment when asked about his teammates seemed phony. I wish the other names on the list would come out already.

Jesse Ventura had an interesting take on why Selig is shoulder blame, citing the precedent of Vince McMahon in the early 90's.
"In the early '90s, the federal government came into pro wrestling and tried to put (WWE Chairman) Vince McMahon in prison for steroid use of wrestlers. My question is: They've now determined 104 baseball players failed their steroid test in 2003 - 104. They indicted Vince McMahon, why aren't they indicting Bud Selig? He's the head of baseball, it happened on his watch."

sspadowsky Don Sutton and Gaylord Perry are surely laughing their asses off right now.
Feb 12th, 2009 11:15 PM
El Blanco So, can we put asterisks next to Babe Ruth and all those players that used corked bats before they were banned? What about pitchers that doctored the balls?
Feb 12th, 2009 11:46 AM
Colonel Flagg With the signing of Ryan Howard, the Phils have completed their task of ensuring the key core players are locked in for the next 2-3 years. Add to this the rapid rehab of Chase Utley, and the Phils look to be pretty well set for the 2009 season.

I'm looking forward to baseball season.
Feb 9th, 2009 10:04 PM
10,000 Volt Ghost I agree. I could do an entire floor with it.

"Oh, what floor are you going to sir? 1st, 2nd?"

"Asterisk please."
Feb 9th, 2009 06:37 PM
pac-man Very rehearsed admission/apology from A-Rod. They should add a steroid era wing onto the Hall of Fame.
