August 24th, 2007 · 1 Comment

The Dodgers just signed David Wells to improve their rotation down the stretch, good luck to you our northern rivals. I’m sure that his 5-8 record and over 5 era will pay for itself, did i mention that he was 0-3 over his last four starts with an era over 14! Good luck [...]

Going for the Series Win and a Great Beginning

August 23rd, 2007 · No Comments

Tonight the Padres play the rubber match against the New York Mets. Again this is a very important game. I feel less optimistic about this game. It’s Gavine (11-6) vs. Germano (6-7), I feel at tad bit worse with this match-up compared to last nights. Does anyone remember when Germano was [...]

Football Game in Baltimore

August 23rd, 2007 · No Comments

Texas 30, Baltimore 3. Sounds right, three touchdowns and three field goals to just a field goal…..Wait! It’s baseball season, and the Rangers scored more runs in one game since 1897.

An Early Must Win in New York

August 22nd, 2007 · 1 Comment

I think this is a serious “must-win” tonight in the Big Apple for a lot of reasons.  It’s our ace, our Alabaman Slide Stopper, Jake freaken Peavy VS………Brian “I have an 83 mph fastball” Lawrence. If we can’t get the better of this match-up we really don’t deserve to be in the playoffs.  Also there [...]

I feel the same way, I thought that bringing in Bradley and Barrett were good upgrades, even with Bradley’s past. The thing that switched my opinion [...]

What Does Age Matter

August 22nd, 2007 · No Comments

Something amazing is happening in Alpine, Texas. A 59 year old man has officially made the football roster for a division three school 37 years after he was kicked off. The story of Mike Flynt is something to look at and realize that we can pretty much do anything, if we really want to.

Padres lose, Yankees lose, Philies win, Mariners win, Red Sox win. Translation= Padres don’t gain a game on the Diamondbacks (who lost), with their loss and Phillies win the Padres are now even with the Phillies in the wild card race. Yankees fall to six games back of the Boston Red Sox, [...]

Barry Bonds Ball and the Strings Attatched

August 22nd, 2007 · 2 Comments

The twenty-one year old who caught Barry Bonds 756th home-run ball is finacially being forced to auction the ball off. It sounds weird to say that even if he wanted to keep the ball he, wasn’t rich enough to. Sound funny, let me explain. The ball is considered an asset worth at [...]
