Go Saints! I hope they send the drama queen packing.

What's the word on LaPorta?

Don't forget Bass Pro and Quantum.

Wonderful.

Couldn't agree more.

I had Chipper as my utility guy on my fantasy team for the first half of the season last year. He had me pulling my hair out. At times he would be freezing cold, so I'd bench him. Of course he'd then go on a three game tear, I'd put him back in and he'd leave the game due to injury in the top of the second.

T-rigged, unweighted floating worms twitched in the shallows.

Yeah, I dont think steroids were actually BANNED when McGwire was juicin'....were they? They got banned after the fact if I remember right. I wonder if Jose Canseco is paranoid when he walks down the street? He should be. ;D Sure he does. Everyday when he leaves his home, he looks for stray flyballs. He doesn't want one to bounce off his head and land over the neighbor's fence. Once a ball goes into the old guy's yard, Jose won't be able to get it back.

I'd like to see the optional plastic drugs. ;D

I meant the north-side.

Well, it's that time again. Pitchers and catchers report to camp in a little more than a month. It's been a busy offseason, and there has been several major trades...one including TWO Cy Young winners! So...who made the best moves this offseason? Who tanked this offseason? Who's trade-bait, and where will they go? Any new favorites for division crowns this year? Who will make the playoffs? Wild Card winners? NL & AL champs? Trash to talk? Let's hear it. I'll start it off by saying I like the moves Seattle made this offseason; the one-two punch of Lee and Hernandez will be one of the best in the AL.

Amen brother.

I darn near cried when he broke the HR record. Though his days were before my time, Roger Maris was my favorite player as a kid. I have a 63' Topps Maris my father's buddy gave me for organizing all his cards from his youth. My God...this guys had trips on everything!!! The sad thing is the guy is a coke-head, and I guarantee once he found out the value of his cards, they went right up his nose...had I know that as a kid, I would have snagged a few cards. What ticks me off most about Mac is one of his responses. He said something along the lines of 'I wish I was not playing during the steroid era, but rather a different time.' WHAT??? He really attempts to displace the blame here; it's as if he couldn't help taking the steroids, like someone was forcing him. F U mac.

Good luck buddy. Lots of calcium, vitamin D, and water will aid in your recovery. Don't feel bad about the grumpiness, it comes with the territory. I had a double posterior fusion last July. In total they used two cages, four rods, and eight screws. If you ever want to chat drop me a pm, and I'll give you my phone number. Down-time can be an absolute hell.

Amen brother. No glass here either. I was looking for a new crankin' rod last year, and found a killer deal on a couple Kistler LTA medium powered rods. I've been really happy with them for shallow to med cranks. The Spro Little John MD is a good cutoff point for the load on these sticks.

I'm not going to make excuses, because the GB D blew donkeys out there, but the blatant penalties that were not called against the cards really made a difference. Cullen Jenkins getting called for holding on Fitz's td was ridiculous...should have been holding on the O. Two bad calls in OT, as Rodgers got a helmet in the head on one play, and an obvious facemask on the last play of the game. Teddy Thompson I hope you're listening, because a few DB's, OT's, a new kicker, and someone to take Hawk's spot are necessary. I honestly think, with the right moves, GB will be a SB favorite next year.

I think it will be a lot closer than some people think...Green Bay wins.

Shad Rap in Yellow Perch.

Sounds about right. 8-)

Sorry for the jack, but I still don't understand why such a popular reel doesn't have a 6.x:1 model.

If you can get away with the longer rod, go for it. You'll be able to make longer casts, thus keeping your bait in the strike-zone longer.

Try leaving a few 40's of malt liquor in your vehicle during the winter.

Shimano believes we were all wiped-out in the Great Southpaw Influenza. As for the OP, the Calais is in a different league when compared to the Zillion. The Shimano Calcutta TE, DC, and Conquest are worth a look too.

Does anyone have an update on Woodsen?

Happy Cake Day Ryan.
