  1. "Dentists, who needs em?" "Yeah, not to mention the blacks and the jews"
  2. And that's not gonna happen. With Boras running the show, Zito's definitely going to test the market.
  3. Thanks, dude . Of course, some say I'm even crazier now by doing things like picking up a complete stranger for a Wilco roadtrip to Florence, Mass....if you're out there Lisa, I had a blast ....and definitely hold a Built to Spill ticket for me.
  4. Where's all the baseball talk??? Is everyone that worried about the Yankees overtaking everyone (well, except the Tigers). I kid, I kid. What the Twins have done the last month is just incredible. They also have their big 3 going this weekend against the Tigers. That should be an interesting series.
  5. 32, wifeless and kidless. Work in social services (and start grad school in the fall) after years of trying to convince myself that I belonged in the "corporate" world. Fell in love with UT first time I heard "I Got Drunk" in college. Pretty much summed up my life at the time and for, oh about the entire 90s. Wilco didn't do much for me in the early days (not much did if it didn't involve drinking, smoking, snorting, or Stephen Malkmus). Had all the albums but rarely listened to them. First listen to IATTBYH on headphones after buying YHF changed everything. Now I'm a definite Tweedy f
  6. Since hell wasn't in the market for a pitcher, they just sent Perez to the next best place they could find.
  7. I'd like to see him do it in Sept/Oct before I go tossin his salad.
  8. "I don't know, man, I lose my touch, man."
  9. Call me a crackhead, cuz I'll take Dignan.
  10. It's kinda crazy that both of their best performances (imo) were in the first thing they'd ever done (& the one movie that most people never saw). I still watch Bottle Rocket at least once a month. It makes me happy on so many levels.
  11. just kiddin. I sure as hell don't want Soriano to go to the White Sox.
  12. Pretty much. But I see Wayne has finally figured out how to time travel.
  13. It's real brain surgery. Basically, Jeff: "How Can I?" crowd: screams
  14. Yeah, like there's no egos and salaries in the Red Sox dugout. But, I actually see your point cuz I do see the Red Sox being a much closer knit group. It is widely known that he doesn't have alot of friends on the team. Although chemistry in baseball can be overrated, he definitely seems to be letting it all get to him (hence the Steve Sax Syndrome that he's now developed). He'll snap out of it (I hope), I just wish he'd stop paying attention to all the hoopla surrounding him (i.e., newspapers, WFAN).
  15. Here is where stats don't tell the whole story. His numbers in the 04 ALCS don't look too bad. Of course, all the damage he did was in Game 3, when the Yanks won 19-8 and he went 3 for 5, with 5 r, 3 rbi's, 2 doubles, and a homer. Game 4 1 for 5 Game 5 0 for 4 Game 6 1 for 4 Game 7 0 for 4 That's what Yankee fans remember, not to mention the Angels series. I realize that no one else hit either, but like was already said, he's the $25 million man.
  16. Believe me, Randy's gotten booed too. Just every 5 days instead of every day . At least he's finally starting to shows some good signs of late. Yankee fans know how great A-Rod is, and the majority are very astute regarding both their knowledge and history of the game. But you put over 50,000 people in the Stadium EVERY NIGHT OF THE YEAR, and you're going to get fans who boo anything and everything.
  17. Last year, pitching did not lose them the Angels series. One clutch by anyone (not just ARod), and they win the series. Throw out Randy's awful Game 3 and their pitching was good enough to win that series. His booing does get out of hand, but that's what you get when you come to NY and you're the highest paid player in the game (Beltran got booed on opening day). He's a big boy, he can take it.
  18. All the new ones sounded great on Sunday, but What Light's lyrics put in number 1 for me.
  19. "Joel, did you write The Passion of the Christ nails it?"
  20. Just picked it up, and had another fine day listening driving around the beach. Awesome summer record!!!
  21. Right off good ol 36. Used to live in the Highlands. Good times, good times .
  22. So he's not the greatest closer of all-time because guys 20 and 30 years ago pitched more innings? I love when the baseball talk picks up, but it was really a rhetorical question. But somehow I knew bobbob would find a way to oppose. Also, you called the cutter his only out pitch. Actually, it's his ONLY pitch. He changes speeds and location, but every pitch is a cutter. Just sayin'. Get used to Red Sox/Yankees, because it's never gonna die down. I wondered if the dynamic would be different once the Sox finally got their title, but the energy in the parks and with the fans hasn't c
