Mr Crunchy

the man has lost his velocity..he hasnt hit 90 in 3 months hes got more stints on the dl than wins since this thread started he maybe sandbagging for october i doubt it though he was the best pitcher ive ever seen in my life for a 5 year stretch but hes now a shell of himself what he did do for the mets was get the 1,000,000 dominicans from washington heights interested in ny baseball and theyve replaced the sox as the team of the spanish folk in nyc there is no other player as worshipped in the game as petey is

athletes actors musicians models and other assorted entertainers get a special exemption from the us govt to perform in the states the average dominican cant get a work visa here say for picking cantelope in florida but if they can hit 50 hrs theyre more than welcome same with jamaicans i know a girl who is a model who got a special visa here for her work with vogue in ny however her brother wasnt allowed to join her here

wow thats an awesome tshirt did you guys get 1 that says 2004 ALCS PARTICIPANTS sort of like the indi colts AFC CHAMPIONSHIP GAME PARTICIPANT banner??

thats right wasnt cordell the pickle smoocher their qb and all around good guy michael westbrook their split end?? how bad is virginia by the way? getting 16.5 against g tech then losing 24-7?? pitiful effort by al groh and crew

he looks like s*** no speed,all breaking balls very fragile if im a mets fan i dont count on this guy getting us there theyre gonna need trachsel hernandez and glavine to do it

as long as history doesnt remove october 2004 from our memory banks i think the red sox fan psyche will be strong for eternity and the international symbol for choking will remain the ny yankee logo it really is amazing how far those 10days in 04 have taken so many people

agreed it was obivious foulke didnt have it in march and thats why paps got the gig and not to sound like a sceptical prick but when youre on the roids and suddenly get off them it takes a long long while for your body to heal giambi and bonds are 2 of the obvious cases but nomar nixon and foulke i suspected here in boston amongst others (damon and petey have much bigger hat sizes than they did as rookies) no proof nor do i give a s*** but its merely an explanation for their sudden frailness and lack of productivity if foulke has his control and can hit 90 on the gun then he'll be effective enuff to win the closers job and regain some credibility he lost during the last 2seasons as i said if we cut him its 5M? if we keep him its 7M? it would be worth it in my opinion to keep him here and see what hes got in march

i think foulke has a buyout of 1.5M and a player option of 3.5M his contract is 7M if he stays and it appears it would cost us 5M to cut him loose hes been pretty decent since they brought him back and maybe an offseason to heal his knees properly and he may have a something left in the tank that being said what are our viable options?? hansen?? mdc?? matt clement!!! the entire world knows we'll need a closer come november they wont be cheap

i remember a big 8 crew gave nebraska 5 downs on the last drive of the game against missouri or was it colorado maybe 8-10 years ago?? it saved nebraskas season and i think they won the national championship that year theres really no excuse with the replays we now have from 500 different angles admit you f***ed up and make the correct call i dont know whats so hard about this concept for the refs to adbide by

dusty did have a nice line drive single up the middle to take the lead last nite with 2 out he's approaching the mendoza line finally

hes 20? throws 98 and gets 72 shaves out of a disposable bic razor and is quite possibly still a virgin who has yet to taste alcohol im not sure that we can determine anything other than the fact we f***ed up by bringing him up and tossing him into the inferno known as the sox staff 06 expecting to catch lightning in a bottle like we did with paplebon this is the problem with prospects most are worth more to their teams as minor leaguers

200+ innings a year isnt easy to replace its not a coincidence that the pitching went south with the losses of arroyo and wake sure theyre not to be confused for cy young winners however we do get 400 innings of 4.5 era out of these guys each and every year and we had to replace those innings with?? the lenny dinardos and jj johnsons of the world.. its not a secret as to why we went into the shitter so quickly

hes got as many errors as rbi but its only been 58abs or 10% of a season i saw the shot he hit against kc live it was a rocket for sure and almost cleared the monster seats in fact i think he had 3? hits that game ive got him penciled in for cooperstown in 2024 with 385 hrs 1600rbi and a .302 avg with 12 gold gloves and 10 straight years of starting the all star game

and amazingly handsome as well as a good dancer

i think that team was incredibly overrated with their rap videos,mcmahons headbands and william perrys belly thats why they were a 1 hit wonder and disposed of by better teams before and after 85 i truly believe if miami got by new england they wouldve beaten them as they did on that monday nite the same year shula used a floating pocket and some misdirection and buddy ryan didnt know whether to s*** or go blind

i hear his image consultants are beating down doors trying to resolve this slanderous attack on this man of courage and character... and to think if it wasnt for steenbergers resolve in stopping the sox from adding arod at the expense of manny?? this head case douchebag would be our problem at 25,000,000.00 per year

the greatest nfl team of all time wouldnt have jim mcmahon at qb and mike ditka as a head coach those 49er teams of joe montana were better and beat that same bears team twice in the nfc title games in the 80s once in sanfran and once in chicago and if im not mistaken were shut out in both games losing by at least 20pts in each

i asked a question sonny i wasnt making a statement

roberto pettagine hit 35hrs in pawtucket last season he was a big man,7 inches and 70lbs bigger than pedroia he also had a long big swing anyone know where he is now??

wait a minute now that bears team was intact for several seasons after they won it all they merely lucked out in 86,the season before they had perhaps even a better defense but couldnt score at all,they got shut out in the 85nfc game by the 49ers 20-0 the following year they won it all but miami humiliated them on a monday nite but then they got bounced by the pats in the 85afc title game as far as the ravens go lewis was hurt or was it prison?? and they signed grbac and let dilfer walk losing a back hurts bad but if their defense played up to standards they wouldve at least challenged once since then they havent the bears team had several playoff teams after their superbowl run,notably the 90 nfc championship game against the 49ers in a frigid soldiers field....it was 0 at kickoff they were shut out 27-0 the 86 bears were in tact but got smoked by the redskins at home as they used doug flutie at qb instead of tomzak or fuller,the team was split and ditka nearly died because of it thanks for your time good day all

oregon surprised me they moved the ball very well against this ou team who is much bigger and i would think more physical than the pac 10 teams theyre used to playing the biggest surprise was louisvilles defense sticking it to miami 7 points?? the larry coker watch is now in effect

The basis for that argument was the Ravens defense. Which was the best in league history. The team gave up 4,000 yards all season. The best Patriots defense during their "dynasty" gave up 5,000. The Ravens would've had to play four more games to equal the Patriots defenses total. That Ravens defense gave up 10 points per game. The Patriots defense at their best gave up 14. Based on their average, the Ravens would've had to play 7 more games to equal the total points the Patriots gave up. The Ravens defensive numbers that season put even the Bears' 1985 numbers to shame. how many titles did your ravens or bears Defenses win compared to tedy d's teams?? you like#s eh?? hows duante culpepper burning up the scoreboard? he was much more effective than brady wasnt he?? didnt ronnie brown avg 4 yards or better sunday?? whats the qbs excuse...he has none as you clearly said buffalos front line sucks yet duante couldnt score on them..... 2things can be made of this buffalo is better than you thought or culpepper is worse than you thought. in any case youre wrong lets move on here i do remember tony dungy whining to the refs because peyton manning got crucified and marvin harrison got beaten like a hitler pinata at a mossad picnic... big deal i also rememeber ben dreith f***ing the pats back in 1976 on a roughing the passer call on ray hamilton and on the ensuing stabler td.... he threw an offsides call on the pats that never happened either just in case they didnt score sometimes these things balance out over the years and after having nightmares and sweats for 25 straight football seasons?? all the demons were exorcised the night of the tuck a/v's 45 yarder into a raging blizzard and oaklands inability to run the clock out and if you look at the fumble?? you will also see charles woodson hitting brady square in the head.. watch it again head shots are 15 yard penalties on the qb.... i dont recall the penalty marked off.... but its ok,karma won out

this guy sounds like the notre dame fan who wanted to fight me saturday THE CHARLIE WEISS DYNASTY IS IN FULL FORM AND WE WILL BE UNDEFEATED WHEN WE PLAY USC,10-0.... I GUARANTEE IT as i was in the fridays in natick after the bc thriller and i was in the mood to f*** with the nitwits ""hey nd guy,shouldnt you win something before you call yourself a dynasty??"" THAT PROGRAM HAS BEEN TURNED AROUND AND IF IT WASNT FOR... ""What!! wasnt for what??... ohio state beating the s*** out of you new years day after you went to a bowl you werent capable of being competetive in ?? or michigan state hanging 40 on you or perhaps your inability to stop usc on 4th down and 10?? f*** YOU thank you check please.... is that your dynasty down 34-7 with a couple minutes left in the half?? f*** YOU mine and michigan defenses rest smart guy the reality is this many people think their football team is the best in the land,some have a valid point most are f***ing idiots who wouldnt know cover 2 from cover girl i had a guy from arkansas tell me that they were gonna beat usc before losing 52-14. my guy in nashville had tennesee beating florida 44-0 with eric ainge winning the heisman theyre now about to lynch his ass.... some teams are legit,this west va team may go undefeated,that auburn team isnt someone you want to play and neither were the lsu tigers,florida has something to say as does michigan and usc and THE ohio st buckeyes some are very good and some dont deserve to be considered our eagles are now 3-0 and beat ranked clemson and a decent byu team clemson handled florida state in tallahassee and they(fsu) beat miami in the orange bowl i think? on labor day nite should the eagles by these virtues be in the top 10? not yet my friends i have no illusions about bc being top 3 team in football i do think realistically and optimistically theyre a top 10-15 team if they beat who they should beat and they happen to lose to va tech or florida state... its common sense and rational thought not a f***ing pipe dream or fantasy

barry bonds 1 year almost won the triple crown and they gave the mvp to terry pendleton,a nice ballplayer on a nice brave team in 1991-92 maybe pendleton didnt have 20hrs id bet?? pedro gets more 1st place votes than anyone and 2 writers refused to give him top 10 consideration in 99? i think he lost out albert belle had 50hrs and 50 dbls in 95 on a team that went to the world series but because he was a world class ******* he got beat by mo vaughn and as a boston fan i will admit didnt deserve it its a popularity contest with as much merit as the allstar game selections none

troy palomalu as God eh?? we used to call him toast palomalu when deion was here he got burnt so very often please that pitt team was beaten against seattle...the tight end and their safetys blew that game i wont mention the horrid officiating that made seattles coach comment on it during the cities parade....something ive never heard before as far as the pats go the names have changed and i have serious questions about their down field ability with the departure of branch on this i agree the winning formula hasnt changed as of yet though has it?? as far as jamaal lewis matching up with dillon and maroney?? if you insist on making this the basis of your argument as to how that baltimore team of 01 was than this years pats team so be it....i'll take a 2 headed attack with an inside outside approach..sure ray lewis had a huge year and a great playoff run but weve got some playmakers on defense that havent been charged with murder as of yet again if you insist i'll play along Quote: Originally Posted by See Red Overall, Miami's passing game is much better than New Englands, though. why the f*** would you say something like this unless youre an idiot or a ballbuster?? DID YOU POST THIS WHILE SOBER?? if not pm me i can get you some aftercare that will end your shakes and sweats or call the samaritans their # is on the bourne bridge,ive seen it. our front 4 is the best in the business and they get pressure all day long the linebackers are older but rosie colvin has continued to play outstanding football and you make fun of jr seau but he had a good game on sunday if you watched the same game i did the secondary is tested and theyve tasted pain and a playoff loss and have had a whole year to play together,not just 3 practices in a week as they had to do last season due to injuries. gene wilson assante samuel are vets now hobbs has played exemplary cornerback there are questions,has anyone answered more questions in 5 years than bellichek?? youre a denver or pitt fan or a miami fan? i cant tell i can only show you how flawed each team is?? shouldnt you be looking for quarterbacks instead of telling me whats wrong with the pats?? jesus christ brady throws 4 pix the zebras sleep at adolph coors mansion and you still get the s*** beaten out of you by pittsburg and youre here discussing the merits of denver football or how pittsburg is outstanding after getting shut out by jaxonville or how miamis passing game with quarterblack duante culpepper is waaaaaaaaay better than ours despite them getting stuffed at home and shut out for 55 minutes against heres more from you ""Play a team first -- a good one, not Buffalo or the Jets -- and we can talk about this"" didnt buffalo just stick it up miami"s ass this is precious ""OVERALL MIAMIS PASSING GAME IS MUCH BETTER THAN NEW ENGLANDS"" wow i know colorado has rarified air i didnt know they prevented it from babies in the womb or did you get locked in a refridgerator as a kid??
