Interesting call....
I wonder where he ends up...but I can't imagine him remaining in the National League...I am sure a DH spot will open up for him somewhere...
Somewhere that wants to see 3000 hits and the final HR for the record???
Hopefully it won't be the Yankees...they already sell out every night and will do so again next year as the final year in the "Stadium" comes about.
Seven felonies including kidnapping...
I have a question for you lawyers out there....one of the alleged victims of the affair suffered a heart attack after an interview of the "Event"...
If this guy dies and one of the prosecutors can tie the heart attack to the break-in can these guys get charged with murder.
A great article by Michael Silver at Yahoo Sports in regards to Slick Willy Belichick and Eric "Mangenius"...both dopes...this article provides the history for the fitting term.
I'm sure he is looking to move past this...
He's a cheater!
Who else on his team knew?
is Mangini not complaining because that would make him a hyporcrite?
How many players knew.
At least in this instance Goodell had rules in place to be able to punish the cheater...not like Buddie boy Selig who refused to put rules in place that would call steroid use and HGH a "foul" in baseball.
You will never stop this kind of behavior, but it is how an organization handles it after the fact that fouls their reputation or redeems them in the eye of the consumer.
Kudos to Goodell and his heavy hand!!! At least I can look at my kids and say that if you do something wrong you will have consequences...can't say that about baseball (at least you couldn't until Congress forced them to make rule changes)...which is why I say DOWN WITH SELIG!
he didn't go to jail for "allegedly" killing his wife and her "Friend" but he will go to jail for this.
What a dope...too bad he already had kids...the stupid genes have been added to the pool.
It's such a sad story and keeps getting worse...
If I were the owner of the Giants...I would have said "stay home we don't need you on our TEAM!"
This is a dysfunctional team with a dysfunctional owner and a dysfunctional coach...
So sad...
Now...I have to say, one of the teams I like the least in baseball is the Red Sox...but this is pretty cool.
Red Sox rookie Bucholz pitches a no-hitter in only his second start!
A pretty amazing feat...consider all the rookies that have ever pitched...he's only the 17th to pitch a no-hitter as a rookie.
Only the twelfth player in MLB history to have 10 RBIs in a game.
An amazing feat that I wish didn't happen against my favorite team the Yankees!
We all knew it was coming after his partners "rolled" last week.
That being said, now comes the wrangling with the NFL and the Falcons in particular.
If Vick can't perform under his contract, he may be forced to pay back much of his signing bonuses...what a situation he put himself in...
very similar to the person that wins the lottery and ends up destitute and on the street , due to bad decisions, very soon after
today marks the passing of a baseball legend.
While he drove me nuts sometimes when I wanted to know what was going on in the game...his stories were priceless.
What a class act...
And who can forget his role in "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights" by Meatloaf...
Was "Holy Cow!" his signature statement before this song hit the airwaves???
Sometimes the best trade is the one you don't make.
At the trading deadline the Yankees had a chance to get this guy...but they passed on giving up some very good future prospects for a "Rental"
I think Boston is still a better team for making the trade, even with the blown save, but the Yankees are also a better team for not making it as well.
Sometimes I would rather be stuck in traffic than playing bad golf...too frustrating, but it is fun to watch someone that is just THAT GOOD.
He's only 5 shy of Jack Nicklaus for all time in major wins...
Tiger is 4 years (and in his prime) ahead of Nicklaus who was 35 when he won his 13th.
Well, it is timely that Barry Bonds hits 755 less than 12 hours before the close of my latest poll on Steroids/HGH/Drug use in baseball prior to the rules changes...
a whopping 47% of respondents (in what is FAR from a statistically significant sample) feel that over 50% of players were "Cheating" in some form or fashion. No one said it was less than 10% or over 75%...
That being said, this is what I have to say about Barry Bonds...even if he cheated, he wasn't alone. If greater than 50% of players were doing something to enhance their game, then he was facing "Juiced" pitchers. If that's the case, did he have that great of an advantage? I'm not so sure...he was still that much better!
Does this make me think that Barry isn't a dope? Not a chance. Does this make me feel any better? Not really. I feel more betrayed by Baseball and Bud Selig than I do by Barry Bonds in particular. Baseball needed congressional hearings to move on what everyone knew was wrong...Horrible...Bud Selig is the worst commissioner in any major sport and has been for way too long!!! Horrible Horrible Horrible.
An interesting side note, Bonds hit his 755th off of Clay Hensley who was suspending in 2005 for violating the leauges Minor league steroids policy.
A-rod hits 500 after a 10 day wait.
After doing something that no one has done in 120 years of baseball he was pretty humble about the accomplishment...
A great quote by him: "You wish you could pay each fan back by shaking their hands, but all I could do is hit a home run and win a game," he said. "They wasted a lot of Kodak film on me this week, I'm just glad I was able to pay them back."
I can only imagine what is in store for us when Barry-Humble-is-not-in-my-vocabulary-Bonds finally passes Aaron,
Only two days left to vote.
The results are not as clear cut as they were early on in the voting.
Please let me know what you think.
I have a few comments to make...and I don't want to make them if they are no longer valid!
hehehe
Your vote will help!
Either way, Strahan should just let his team know what the story is.
He signed a contract and if he wants to renegotiate. TOUGH!
You made a deal cry baby!!!
Show up or retire, but whichever you choose do it soon.
Besides that, this is a dysfunctional team with a dysfunctional coach.
Nuff Said
