Mr Crunchy

gom im in agreement with most of your post but if we practiced what you preached josh hamilton would be washing cars instead of playing baseball his story is a rarity most of the guys f***ed up at that young age end up usually end up like steve howe or doc gooden or darryl strawberry etc.... is there anything to the story that vicks crew were stealing their neighbors dogs and putting them in a ring with the pitbulls?? its so f***ing nasty and heartless i cant comprehend the savagery

a question for the esteemed members of the panel. if a stranger follows you for from boston into your driveway after 11pm what is going to be your reaction when you park? i know my reaction isnt going to be civil,in fact it would more than likely felonious. nobody here is advocating drunken driving and when its all said and done i will have buried more friends from dui than cancer. thats not the point here. my point is curt schilling is a grandstanding ********** who probably told the herald about his heroical capture of this menace to society himself,why else would the herald report a dui from medfield on its front page?? if you want to investigate every ******* who is driving like an idiot after dark you will be a very very busy man and eventually you will catch a f***ing beating or worse for your good intentions and justifiably so. when did we become a nation of nosy good doers instead of people who mind their f***ing manners?? what else do we do? call the cops on the lady who is tuning up her brat in k-mart. (why do women who shop kmart wear flipflops and short shorts despite their 400lb frame) report our neighbors for stealing cable tell on the 2 teenager kids walking hand and hand into the woods? report the smell of weed coming from your neighbors cookout?? tell the rabbi that mrs rosenfeld turned her lites on during yom kippur?? call 911 because the young couple living next to you are fighting over the linen patters and it may get ugly?? i feel that this stunt with the dui,his election comments in kerrys hometown and all his other moves of stupidity are simply more grandstanding from a guy who wasnt paid attention to by his mom@dad nearly enough. a classic case of an attention starved athlete who will never be comfortable without the lights on him.

it appears the only question remaining is how big the nails are going to be when they crucify his ass a lot of eye witness testimony and a mob of angry folk wanting to lynch his ass?? and the court where the trial is held is an express lane of convictions. f*** him

hinske-keilty?? no need to move imo for this guy

anyone who had a buck on the nats will puke after watching jimmy rollins score on a dropped fly with 2 out in the 9th 4 base errors hurt

cant bitch about the 1st 3 games outside the obvious we let this one get away the tribe are legit and great at home

great game great series i thought crisp was safe

in 04 before he even hung his clothes he followed a guy 10 miles after a game and called the cops and had the dude arrested for a dui..i dont care what your position is on driving under,nobody sane recommends it or would allow a loved one to do it etc but to go out of your way in order to get a guy locked up,lose his license and absorb over 5k in costs before trial is in itself a hatefull thing to do i wasnt a witness but curt said the guy was all over the road and a threat to the public.. thats his story and he made the herald for it and came off as a superhero? i dont like that s*** personally and i think that if you follow a guy for that long you are a stalker and a man looking for trouble as opposed to the good samaritan he was played out to be.... if he cost me that kind of coin,that embarassment and my license i may have had to kill the prick just to sleep at night knowing he was comfy and at peace while im waiting for the bus in the rain.... he gets a pass on that because nobody wants to share the road with a drunk but what if the guy was sober or under the limit or just over the limit?? mind your own fuking business i feel because some day you maybe on the other side of the road.... anyways he called out scott williamsons courage 48 hrs before williamson had his 14th operation on his arm ending his season and essentially his career... the crucifix thing annoys me?? the more one proffesses his faith in christ publically the more i question his commitment and knowledge of christianity keep it to yourself and if you feel the need to wear your cross thats fine dont wait for the cameras and kiss it in front of 40,000,000 fans when the lites are on for chrissakes... i got a huge gold cross that ive owned for 25 years but no one outside my family or my beach friends has seen it because its not bling or a good luck charm as much as it is a symbol of my personal faith which i dont stuff down anyones throat publically. i think hes grandstanding when he kisses it for the camera and thats wrong then he said if he could reelect bush or win the title he'd go with electing bush that in itself isnt so bad but the prick is pitching in boston where the other candidate lives ok that got a pass because this was heard after he did his miracle sock thing and at the time he couldve run for anything here and won because we were champs and he risked his career and brought it home as he predicted in the ford commercial this year he starts in on bonds cheating on both his wife and the irs?? really suck ass ******** and completely over the top nonsense he can pick on over 1/2 the league for infidelity but he joined in on the bonds beatdown and looked like an ******* in doing so then this summer he and his wife start some type of joint venture with the movie theater they come out fighting against skin cancer but they do so by recommending kids stay indoors and more specifically they should be going to the theater and eat popcorn and swill cokes for 5.00 a head?? something along those lines was stated evidently he isnt in tune with the obesity epidemic out there or if he is he isnt interested in it anyways day by day word by word he comes off as a self absorbed holier than thou self righteous cock sucker and 99.9% of the oral diareah was completely avoidable if he considered his words b4 he spoke i want to meet him and thank him sincerly for those 10 days and his personal sacrifice in 04 i dont want my 1st words to be WHY DONT YOU SHUT THE f*** UP

todd helton is an awfully expensive singles hitter whos signed forever texeira is a needed power guy but i think theyre thinking outfield help due to the production or lack there of from wmp and jd drew

Jul 25 971 BOS RED SOX J BECKETT -R -105 o9EV +1½-215 7:05 PM 972 CLE Guardians F CARMONA -R -105 u9-120 -1½+185 doesnt get any harder than this to pick as a gambler i find it difficult to play for 3 in a row on the road as a sox fan i find it hard to bet against becks who is smoking these days and carmona,although pitching well,isnt what the #s say he is. becks may not be this cheap for the rest of the summer

tremendous effort by lester diceK and the pen just amazing how they handcuffed this cleveland team who did have the best home record in the league. if the yanks are going to make a run it will be in the next 2 weeks if we can clear the next couple of weeks and remain 4-5 up we got em

the yanks ate more money than we were willing to eat.....thank god abreau is the hr hitting softball player that lost his pop and is now a 19m per .265 singles hitter since he won the hr derby his obp was enormous in burying the sox but now hes a burden and unmovable with that coin on his ass

mike lowell has some good #s but im in agreement for the most part they move agon for offense they dumo an allstar 2bman they sign a question mark for huge coin the year b4 an outfield filled market opens up they offer lowe nothing and give clement 20M they then blow the competetion out of the water for dice k with 19 different voices in this ownership group who want a return on their investment i figured after 04 they'd blow the entire thing up but that hasnt been the case at all they pissed away huge coin in some mind boggling moves but theyve also spent to keep this team very competetive since they bought the club i was very sceptical of this crew but i now admit i am pleasantly surprised about their commitment to win and how far they went to be competetive with the 800lb gorilla 190 miles southwest of here setting the pace

in all fairness to the great humanitarian when lg crumpler is your main man you got limited options but thats also saying vick wouldnt run from pressure and actually try and read defense coverages and find seams in zones its a matter of patience that a lot of guys never get remember grogan? he broke the td record for qbs and was an animal running the ball till his neck got fused at the end of his career he would sit in the pocket till the last possible moment and take the hit in order to let his wideouts finish their patterns mike vick and his 9 figure deal maynot be so patient as time goes by

by 7/30 we were beat but on 6+15 we were in the hunt but wounded the players got the message from the brass that 06 was gone and they acted accordingly wakefields 200 ip missed hurt bigtime and the 4+5 slots in general were just gimmes for the other guys becks didnt get it together till late eitherand by then papi and manny were done the yanks got abreau lidle and wilson but they needed a stud arm this next 10 days will be eye opening in regards to how much the brass wants it all almost every year the yanks or our competetion trumps us at the deadline we get the bunny kims and joe sambitos of the world the yanks grab up king kong cliff johnson or denny neagle or jeff weaver or whoever the best available guys are we get rachelle tarver from pawtucket and oakland lands willie mcgee and dave henderson 86 was our most successful getting seaver hendu and spike owens the year we got suppan sauerback and kim was our worst its not an exact science but you do need to give up coin and prospects to land what you need

its july 20 arod nobody in their right mind is penciling in travel plans to the west coast in october but the fact is our staff is fairly solid and the yanks just cant count on mussina and clemens anymore wang is great but also beatable against another decent arm and kei and the burnt pen are an albatross that is too big i feel to overcome over the long haul hey i dont count those pricks out ever but this season the balance of pitching is on our side for a change

damon was arguably their mvp last year and this year when he scores ny is playing 750 baseball we knew he was a walking time bomb and i would say most of us would agree that a 4yr deal to ny was about 2 yrs too much damon has never played less games than jd drew but the future isnt so rosey for damon who is hurting in every part of his body and is always questionable to go... i think damon used growth hormones or roids as well have you seen his head?? he sets back evolution 3,000,000 years

you women are brutal,really brutal you just beat that boy at every turn with all the mercy of a turkish prison official without smokes... after he came back in oct 04 i had to give it to him he had his chance to run hide and evade forever as a lot of them did but after a day or 2 of reflection he was back starting hot stove threads and telling us how jarret wright would win 18 pavano 23 and rj 27 in 05. hes easier to read these days age and maturity mellow most of us

evening lyndie are you drinking with yaz at home again?? nice effort cause after the ump blew the call it seemed as if they laid down for an hour and were up there hacking away good tirade by francona 1st time i seen him really really pissed off

the reports say that he lost 1 bet of 23k to this guy 23k is a big hit if you make 50-100-250k a yr but to him its a tip at the tittie bar 13M per plus endorsments possibly gone the stupidity level and reckless behavior in the hampton roads area is mind boggling when you add iverson and marcus vick into the equation.

the moments to have fun on this thread have been few and far between for a few weeks but i like this from fox regarding edwar ramirez and his stuff. News: Ramirez struck out the side in his major league debut on Tuesday, finishing off the Yankees' 8-0 win over the Twins. Impact: This isn't out of line with what Ramirez was doing before his callup, when he struck out 80 batters over 43.1 innings combined between Double-A and Triple-A. Perhaps this outing will encourage Joe Torre to use him Ramirez in closer game situations. and this box from this evening Pitcher Name IP H R ER BB K ERA* E Ramirez 0 1 3 3 4 0 15.43 i wont bother you with the 19 pitch 17 ball effort. this is exhibit A as to why i dont think the yanks can catch us. despite our woes and apathetic last 2 months i think our pitching is just too consistant over the long haul and the yanks just dont have the arms to catch us. 9 weeks left and its still too early to start raising banners however....

good to see the dodger cheerleaders get excited about a fox story generated out of los angeles and supported by a guy on this forum who thinks wily mo pena is an allstar and jd drew is a gamer who will thrive in boston. hows wily mo's vorp lookin these days crespo?? f***ing idiot do you pay attention to mlb rosters?? seriously the nl is the f***ing joke and the nl west is the punch line. your power# analogy is awesome dude cincinatti leads baseball in homeruns last i looked. i believe they are last in scoring? hows that for research. again your #s are very very comical and mean absolutley nothing. research?? my god are you this f***ing stupid ?? heres some research for all you national league apologists. rudy seanez is 6-1 with an era of 3.25 pitching in the nl west did you read this yet?? jc romero has an era of 2.77 in the power hitting national league cla meredith?? has a 2.73 in his career,remove the time he spent in boston and he looks like saito do you understand what this means or are we now of the mindset that rudy seanez is a hoss and we waived him in error?? randy johnson beat the yankees out of 35M due to his success in the national league west raja clemens stole 20M from the yanks based on his nl success the above 2 men were cy material into their 40s pitching in the B league but are no better than #4s in al east but dont let this stop you from using national league stats sonny. (im still chuckling over the power# graph you used crespo,alomost as good as the wily mo graph you used that showed how good he'd be if he played every on odd days of the month against lefthanded bats when the temp hits 80. anyways lets get back to the lites out nl pitching. think gred maddox or tommy glavine would be effective in the american league? was that aaron sele who took the loss for the mets last nite?? the mets have 9 pitchers with eras under 4 9 john maine is 10-5 with an era under 3 for the mets odalis perez 3.13 86 year old orlando hernandez has a 2.96 era none of the above would make an al roster with the possible exception of maine who didnt exactly dazzle anyone when he was in baltimore but put him in the B league and look out. 2 years in baltimore (since we're onto small sampling) era of 9.82 and 6.80 2 years in ny era of 3.60 and this year 3.07 how many al stiffs went to the nl and had success? karen ""rainy days and mondays get me down"" carpenter is a cy winner over there in the al east 4.37 4.38 6.26 4.09 5.28 nl cent 3.46 2.83 3.09 had enuff yet? i have as for the dodgers i think jon broxton is a legit closer and will have this job sooner than later. chris young is great and has a .69 era at home he seems to be the most dominant of the nl pitchers ive seen this summer these #s are insignificant and really mean nothing in the big boy show and time and time again we see what happens to these guys in the playoffs. if you really think saito is better than paplebon you shouldnt be on a baseball forum. if you think these #s translate into american league success you are out of your f***ing minds. crespo dont forget your helmet today,the short bus goes over some bumps on the way to camp

i was listening to eei and they had a legal expert on this court in richmond is known as the express lane for its speedy trials and lack of red tape the feds have 4 witnesess as well as at least 1 of vicks codefendants rolling on him the dpt of agriculture is the govt wing doing the investigation and they are out to end this culture of dog fighting why not fight chickens?? dog fighting is just barbaric and the evidence leaked out against vick so far is very very damning....hes f***ed my friends and i suspect the 3 other defendants will ensure him getting convicted. atlantas worst nightmare has come true and i feel they should cut their losses how is this guy going to prepare 75-100hrs a week while being 250 miles north of atlanta in a courthouse?? cut him f*** him go get culpepper and sign a young arm out of the arena league and let this f***ing maggot who likes to watch dogs die stand tall on his own you know in federal prison some guy is shaking his head thinking of the dog he had taken away from him and how he wants to get back at society for this transgression. look for the braided qb to have a hard time in prison

i dont know about that. consider when a dozen of these wannabe rapstar/idiots in attendence are facing jail time for other activities and theyre offered a deal if they testify against vick they will roll on him eagerly. mike vick is the da's target here,not marcus vick or his posse of retards. his career in the nfl is essentially over whether he gets convicted or not. theres not a big calling for 48% passers who are pushing 30 and have some real sick s*** in their closets this nation is fickle you can beat the s*** out of your wife brother and your roomate with an axe but if you touch an animal we want your ass on a skewer. and for the record adam jones was suspended for the season and hasnt been convicted of anything....... yet. this commisionar isnt f***ing around look for atlanta to waive vick bye bye before camp opens. from fox http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7033162 ""Three others were indicted with Vick and you can bet that one of them, in lieu of lesser charges, will attempt to implicate Vick even more. That's the American way when it comes to justice. The FBI got involved in the Vick case because the bureau didn't believe Virginia authorities were pursuing the case aggressively enough.""

saito throws strikes and has the luxury of playing in AAAA ball in a league full of pitchers ballparks consider that khalil green is the power guy and josh bard hit cleanup for sandiego for a while and ray durham and pedro feliz hit 3-5 in sanfran its hard to take anything from that league seriously as the talent levels arent close to being equel put saito in baltimore and they'll be screaming for chris ray put him in toronto and they'll make bj ryan pitch right handed the guy is 37 yrs old,he can throw strikes and he seems durable but on a roster that has brett ho ho tomko and wuuuuudy seanez on it why wouldnt he look good?? if i pitched after mark hendrickson i too would be considered tremendous in comparison. put this guy against mlb hitters and he will be exposed eventually theres a reason he didnt get here till he was 36 and theres also a reason hes making 1M instead of real MLB coin like juan pierre nomar randy wolf and jason schmidt make. the reason is he aint that good and this will be proven over the next 10 weeks
