srv1990 Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 Here's an interesting article about Torre ripping into Cashman and A-Knob: http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/9130146?MSNHPHCP>1=39002 SI.com does an interview with Tom Verducci, who co-authored the book, about how the book was conveyed by the New York Post... and apparently other sources, based on the Fox Sports article linked above. According to Verducci, "Joe Torre does not rip anybody in the book". For what it's worth: http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2009/baseball/mlb/01/25/verducci.qa/ Sorry Wrong Answer My apologies, I haven't read the book, was just going by what the co-author said. Curious, was it a good read?
Daniel A. Posted January 30, 2009 Posted January 30, 2009 It looks like Tek is returning. Now, let's work on the catcher of the future, too. http://msn.foxsports.com/mlb/story/9143840/Report:-Varitek,-Red-Sox-close-to-agreement?MSNHPHMA

daviscw Posted February 8, 2009 Posted February 8, 2009 Geez.... It's still girls basketball season...When does the NFL report to camp? When the NFL decides their protected QB's made of gold have gotten enough manicures and rest!
Super User Muddy Posted February 8, 2009 Super User Posted February 8, 2009 Geez.... It's still girls basketball season...When does the NFL report to camp? Shouldn't you be in the Dr.Phil/She man O support section?

Super User Tin Posted February 9, 2009 Super User Posted February 9, 2009 If Griffey ever tests positive, I'll cry worse than Burley at his HS prom. O come on...he was the pimp with all the ladies and spiking the fruit punch.....
Super User Tin Posted February 9, 2009 Super User Posted February 9, 2009 Geez.... It's still girls basketball season...When does the NFL report to camp? Once again... : Why don't you clean up this thread and get rid of useless posts like you do in every other thread... :-? ;D
Hannons Hound Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 I kinda like the alternate uniforms. Aside from that, the Sox need to do a little more than sign Penny to compete in the AL East. On paper, the Yanks are the team to beat...as much as I hate admitting that. No other team has done as much to immediately improve than the Yanks. As I've said before, if they can't buy a championship this year, they should play in the Minors. The Yankees payroll is gross! Didn't the D Rays teach these knuckle heads anything last year? Go Sox!!!
Super User burleytog Posted February 18, 2009 Author Super User Posted February 18, 2009 All the money in China wouldn't help the Yankees.
Super User flechero Posted February 18, 2009 Super User Posted February 18, 2009 All the money in China wouldn't help the Yankees. Are you sure? They bought plenty of roids over the past couple of decades...
Super User Muddy Posted February 22, 2009 Super User Posted February 22, 2009 Hey Fellas: Thanks for one of my favorite threads over the last 3 seasons. but for reasons stated MLB can take this game an shove it I am done with MLB See YA
Super User Hookemdown. Posted February 23, 2009 Super User Posted February 23, 2009 Am I the only person who still loves baseball?
Super User Tin Posted February 23, 2009 Super User Posted February 23, 2009 Am I the only person who still loves baseball? Yup, I hate baseball. But love the Red Sox...
Super User Hookemdown. Posted February 23, 2009 Super User Posted February 23, 2009 I love the game more than anything.
Super User burleytog Posted February 24, 2009 Author Super User Posted February 24, 2009 Am I the only person who still loves baseball? Nope, it's at #3 on my list, just behind sex and hunting/fishing and just ahead of eating and sleeping.
daviscw Posted February 24, 2009 Posted February 24, 2009 Am I the only person who still loves baseball? Nope, it's at #3 on my list, just behind sex and hunting/fishing and just ahead of eating and sleeping. Too bad your skill level in those categories is in reverse order. I will continue to watch baseball. People cheat in every sport. Every sport is ran by money.
Super User burleytog Posted March 5, 2009 Author Super User Posted March 5, 2009 Anyone read Torre's book yet? Give it another month so it has time to show up on the $1.99 rack. Bought my ticket for the TN Smokies home opener yesterday. Ryne Sandberg's first game as the Smokies manager. First row behind the Smokies dugout. Perhaps I can finally get some use out of the MLB ball I bought in Atlanta 7 years ago and never got signed. Hope Ryno doesn't mind signing stuff as I've got a ton of stuff I want to get signed this summer. HOF program, cards, etc.
Super User Tin Posted March 5, 2009 Super User Posted March 5, 2009 Wow...Manny said he "suffered" in Boston for eight years.....what a piece of _____ monkey _______.
Super User Tin Posted March 5, 2009 Super User Posted March 5, 2009 Wonderful news for Sox fans.... A-Rod is out until May with a ovarian hip cyst.
Daniel A. Posted March 6, 2009 Posted March 6, 2009 Wow...Manny said he "suffered" in Boston for eight years.....what a piece of _____ monkey _______. I saw that on Sportscenter last night. He really lives in a fantasy land. Boston put up with his childishness, fake injuries, and pouting. The fans loved Manny. He was treated far better than he deserved. I wonder how long he'll be content with the Dodgers. As long as Torre continues to let him walk all over him and the rest of the team, he'll love it.
Super User Gone_Phishin Posted March 14, 2009 Super User Posted March 14, 2009 Is anyone in a fantasy baseball league? This will be my first season. We are holding our draft this sunday, any tips, pointers, things to watch for, etc? Has anyone already drafted a roster this year? How did it go?
