    Or if they start doing playoff games for last place.
  2. italstallianion
    It was like 2007 all over again, although I don't see either of these teams making it to the WS.
  3. italstallianion
    God damn it.
  4. italstallianion
    That'll make up for the fumble.
  5. italstallianion
    Damn it Peterson...you're killing me.
  6. italstallianion
    Yep, this game has fantasy implications for my league.
  7. italstallianion
    Or at the end of this game...

    I thought Favre had already beaten all 32 teams. Maybe he's the only person to throw a TD pass against all 32 teams. Anyway I've got AP on my fantasy team, so I couldn't care less what Favre does. Besides, I'm not a fan of either team, although I really wish that Favre would go away for a few decades. I can't believe that his antics have permeated all the way to England where they have been bugging me incessantly for quite a while now.

    The same way Jose Reyes made his way into this conversation.
  10. italstallianion
    How in bloody hell did we get from talking about Rich Harden in Boston to talking about Jose Reyes? Shouldn't we either change the title of this thread to be more ambiguous or move the discussion of this topic?

    Are we in math class? Because I see a tangent...

    If that was directed at me, I'm going to take a first class flight down to the Dominican and b**** slap you. That's why I always carry a container of baby powder on me; you never know when you're going to have to smack a b****.

    3-0, not bad for someone who's never played fantasy football before.
  17. italstallianion
    I just can't believe that it took this bloody long.
  18. italstallianion
    She's a girl though, so I doubt she has much to worry about.
  19. italstallianion
    Is it normal to have a primal urge to hurt this a******?
  20. italstallianion
    I didn't know that the Yankees had 2 11th round picks.
  21. italstallianion
    Wow. Jacko is going to have to try really hard to beat this to continue his streak of consecutive "dumbest post of the day"

    While I agree that Buchholz's numbers may be a little exaggerated due to the incredibly futility represented in a mere 2-3 starts, they cannot be ignored. Sure, on an aggregate level, even while including those horrific starts, his numbers are very f***** good. However, combining those 2 starts with some of his select starts from last year shows that he still has the ability to get his s*** pushed in. I do like how he's been pitching and he shows great promise for future years, especially considering the fact that he's 24-25. With that said, we should probably wait until he has more than 200 career innings (and perhaps more than 200 innings in a season) before we herald him as the next big thing. Simply put, as much as I'd love to ignore those other starts as outliers, they did happen nonetheless. You can say "if he didn't have those 2 starts his ERA would be 2.11", but that's like saying "if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle"

    You don't have to be smart to be the f***** man. Just ask Kilo.

    Also don't forget the effect he has on the Sox bullpen. Not only does he generally eat up innings (per start, and often throughout a season) but his velocity (or lack thereof) really help fast-pitch relievers such as Bard/Delcarmen. I remember a stastistic that showed Bard's performance after Wakefield starts vs. after others and his numbers were significantly better while pitching after Wakefield. Small sample size I know, but the logic is there. His lack of velocity messes up hitters timing which is great for fast-pitch relievers.

    For the record he has a career OPS of .745 and is playing .542 since coming to Boston, although that may increase slightly after today's game. Not to mention that LaRoche is playing 1.072 in 40 games since our trade. If I know anything about which number is the greater number, it's easy to see that LaRoche is p'wning Kotchman right now.
