....Some things in life are bad
They can really make you mad
Other things just make you swear and curse.
When you're chewing on life's gristle
Don't grumble, give a whistle
And this'll help things turn out for the best...

And...always look on the bright side of life...
Always look on the light side of life...

They just put a chick in the HOF, I wouldn't worry about a closer.lol

07/31 14:47:34 bb111 mksrookies must be nuts 
Closers blew tons of games yesterday. Maybe it was cause the HOF was inducting SUTTER and the baseball gods where angry that another unworthy player was going into the HOF. I don't feel any player should be going into the HOF IF theres players out there with simulur careers that will never sniff it. A HOF player should have no equals that are not also in the HOF. EX If you put in OZZIE SMITH you dang sure have to put in DAVID CONCEPCION and OMAR VIZQUEL. These 3 players are dang near the same But Ozzie goes in and the other 2 probably don't. Another EX KIRBY PUCKETT is in the HOF and ANDREA DAWSON ALBERT BELLE, and JOSE CANSACO, are not. In the case of Dawson no otherplayer with more then 1000 extra base hits besides him is not in the HOF or on there way to the HOF. PUCKETT had a good short career BUT CANSACO and BELLE totally dominated in there short careers also. I fail to see any difference between any of them Cept Puckett was Loved by the media and the other 2 was not. and DAWSON for some reason got stiffed this yr. THE HOF should be no doubters. RUTH, AARON, MAYS, CY YOUNG W JOHNSON, COBB, MUSIAL,Put upnumbers and did things no other players not also in the HOF themselves ever did THERE NO DOUBTERS cause you can;t find any simuler players to them outside the HOF walls. THIS Year there should have been only the negro leauge players. Putting SUTTER in and Not gossage makes him a suspect. It taints the HOF with doubts and players looking outside wonder WHY the hell there not in If this guy is. AND THATS M OPINION ON THAT. DAILY NOTES: CHASE UTLEY has a 32 game hitting streak wake me up when he gets close to ROSES 44. S CASEY got traded to the TIGERS> I hate watching this guy hit looks like a dofus up there every pitch stepping out and adjusting his batting gloves and rocking back and forth. He runs like a clod and hits for no power. The tigers could have got a bag of batting practice balls and been better off.

You know I Like The Jim Rome show. I also Like The Steven A Smith show. However I can not watch them when they have special guest hosts. Why do the special guest on the ROME show think they have to talk and act just like Jim Rome. Yesterday Bonnie Bernstein hosted the Rome show. I think Bonnie is one of the hottest sports chicks on TV. There are others but shes up there on my list. She did her best smack talk ROME STYLE but it just was not working for me. I also watched the show and some big heavy set, bald, Africian American dude was hosting the show. I don't even know his name but I seen him guest hosting on PTI a few times also. Guy was trying his best to talk like ROME but he was also not doing a very good job. I don't think ROME should be missing his show. If he must be gone for that day theres a great invention called the Video tape or CD download where he can Tape his show for a later broadcast. He never have to have these guests on doing a Hack job of immitating him LOL.AND THATS MY OPINION ON THAT- DAILY NOTES: Anyone stuck with LIDGE AND/Or TURNBOW ( I am stuck with both) is going to be in deep do do for the rest of the season. Both of them blow major chunks and theres no hope for recovery to the damage your fantasy team will take with either or both on your teams. The Brewers got MENCH and coco puffs from the TEXAS team for LEE. I think MENCH gets to hit 4th or 5th so it will help him. COCO closing for the Brewers makes turnbow a set up man. Really don't see coco being that much better.( Didn't he go thru a period of stinking up the place in tex where he couldn't get anyone out and lost his job just like Turnblow did???)

Whouldn't be cool if real baseball was more like fantasy baseball? Every year right before spring training the teams gather in Vegas and have the Annual MLB baseball draft. Each team would be allowed a 80 million dollar pay roll to draft players every yr to there teams. Each team could keep 10 players from there rosters a yr ago and 5 players from there minor league system that didn't play in the majors the year before all the others are up for drafting. The kept players would earn 10% more this yr then what they was makeing last yr. All the other players earn a salery to whatever the team that bid for them wants to pay them. Each team would get whatevers left of 80 million after they pay there 10 keepers to draft the rest of there teams 40 man roster. EX the yankees 10 players cost them 55 million dollars this yr. They would now only have 25 million left over to draft the rest of there team around there 10 keepers. Each team will have a minor league system simuler to what it is now. Each team will have 1 AAA team. 2 AA teams and up to 3 single A teams has there minor league system. all undrafted players outside the 40 man rosters will go into the MINOR league system according to there respective teams prioritys. All minor league players will be protected by there respective teams for 4 years. This means that they can not be drafted by any other team while still on protection statis This gives teams a chance to build a good minor league system for their future ball players. I think this would be cool to watch how your team uilds for the up coming season and would give Fans of there teams Hope for a good yr If they think there draft went well. I know this will not be happening But it would be pretty cool.And thats My opinion on that. Daily Notes: Lidge getting pulled yesterday really blows. But he deserved it cause he was about to IMPLODE anyways. I see BOBBY CROSBY got hurt again in the game yesterday. MAN why the hell did I believe the hype on this GUY I must be a moron to think a Guy like this could be anything more then in the catagory of NEFI PEREZ or CHRISTIAN GUZMAN. Even when he does play he sucks big time. a totally worthless player and will not be a rookie again.

04/23 10:22:01 bb2 FOULKE 
Weggie, you about ready for that pitching overhaul yet? You're already 7 wins down, 50 K's, and 30 IP. This after less than 3 full weeks. OH, and don't worry that you have a slight edge in hitting, my boys are about to wake up.

04/18 07:54:07 bb42 FOULKE 2 
Weggie, just noticed you've got no Burnett either. that's awesome man, you really need to consider a pitching overhaul.

04/15 09:16:28 _13 FOULKE 
so that's a total of 22 from Capuano, Bedard, and Duque. 24 from Peavy. You're just lucky Peavy missed the 2x this week. I guess you'll be buying him next week?

04/14 18:33:02 bb2 FOULKE 
at least he's helping VMart to break out of that slump, so that's good. Hafner too it seems.

04/14 18:31:44 bb2 FOULKE 
and then there's Duque...

04/13 18:20:12 _13 FOULKE 
heck James, even TERDS and Stevie had RJ and Santana. You guys should get together more. oh and Stevie, nice job with Capuano today, and NO Peavy. That was the call of the year so far there.

04/13 18:07:25 bb42 FOULKE 2 
James, I can't believe you think you stand a chance this year with that pitching. No Santana, Schmidt, or RJ? I guess the paint fumes finally got to you.

news flash-down in Yankee camp, fans &team memebers are raving about a lanky kid getting a look in the outfield this spring. Seems this youngster out of San Francisco comes from good stock, as two of his brothers are already close to the Majors with the Red Sox. This kid, named Dimaggio, can really hit, chase down seemingly everything hitin the OF, and has impressed everyone with his quiet but sure attitude. Stay tune for more...

If you're looking for a handle for rookie infielder Mark McGwire, the ruddy-faced, redheaded slugger of the Oakland Athletics, pull up a chair and take your choice. The 23-year-old power hitter is such a phenom that he seems to inspire a new sobriquet every day. Here are a few of the nicknames he has acquired so far.

Mark McGwireOrange Crunch. The righthanded McGwire didn't become Oakland's everyday first baseman until April 20, yet he had belted a major league-leading 30 homers in 73 games through July 5. He's the first rookie ever to hit the 30 mark before the All-Star break and the first to hit five homers in a two-game set. He should easily surpass the rookie home run record of 38 held by Frank Robinson and Wally Berger.

Marco Solo. Of his 30 homers, 20 have come with no one on. Still, his RBI total of 61 is fourth in the league.

Big Mac. That's as in Big Mac Attack, one of which attracted the attention of Reggie Jackson, the preeminent A, a few years back. When McGwire was barnstorming in Boston with the '84 Olympic team, Jackson, then with the Angels, happened to be visiting Fenway Park. Jackson watched in wonder as McGwire ripped one off the wall behind the centerfield bleachers, about 450 feet away. ''It was a bleeping rocket,'' Jackson says.

Afterward, Jackson took the kid aside. ''Reggie told me, 'Son, when you hit a ball like that, you've got to watch it,' '' says McGwire. ''I said, 'No, that's not my style.' '' Mr. October continues to marvel at the young slugger. ''He's a fly-ball hitter,'' says Jackson, ''except for him a high fly ball is a comfortable 410 feet long.''

Mac. Naturally, this is the handiest. Says A's infielder Ron Cey, who has pasted half a dozen labels — from Agent Orange to Le Grand Orange, Number Two — on McGwire already, ''I try to keep him loose,'' Cey says. ''That's why I started the nicknames.'' Fact is, McGwire was basically unflappable to begin with. He proved that last week, when he was beaned on the helmet by Boston's Wes Gardner and calmly took first while the dugouts emptied around him. ''He doesn't change too much when things are going good or when they're going bad,'' says McGwire's wife, Kathy.''When he comes home, we watch SportsCenter on ESPN, get something to eat and go to bed.''

So, as the clouts continue, the nicknames just keep on coming. If you want more, here are some others that might apply.

Son of Kong. Like Dave Kingman, McGwire arrived at USC a pitcher and departed a power hitter. ''I still say Mark has a major league arm,'' says former Trojan coach Rod Dedeaux. Both Kingman and McGwire are 6 ft. 5 in. or so, and while in college each played summer ball in Alaska, where they were transformed into batsmen. Unlike Kingman, however, McGwire is a competent fielder and a delightful guy, who not only grants interviews but also often ends them with a ''Thank you.''

The McG Force. This is what McGwire, 33-ounce bat in hand, generates out of a pigeon-toed crouch, with a short stroke that's as quick as an Irish temper. ''He's not your classic power hitter,'' says A's hitting coach Bob Watson, ''because he doesn't just pull. He drives the ball from foul pole to foul pole.'' The McG Force has been known to drive a golf ball 350 yards.

McG Whiz. On the attention he has gotten: ''It's pretty neat.'' His explanation for his success: ''I don't do anything special, just concentrate, see the ball, hit the ball and be aggressive.'' On his great start: ''I'm really enjoying the way we're playing as a team.''

McGwire, on and off the field, is almost too good to be true. He was raised in La Verne, Calif., by ''the best parents in the world.'' When his father, John, coached Little League, he wouldn't leave the park until the last kid was picked up; his mom, Ginger, is a tireless community worker. The parents passed on their warmth and size to their five sons. All the McGwire men go at least 6 ft. 2 in. and 210 pounds. J.J., at 17 the baby, is 6 ft. 3 in., 215 and a star defensive lineman at Claremont (Calif.) High, while Danny, the 6 ft. 8 in. No. 4 son, will start at quarterback for Iowa this year.

As a sophomore at Damien High, Mark actually gave up baseball for golf, working his handicap down to six. But he eventually returned to baseball, and the Expos drafted him in the eighth round as a pitcher out of high school. The money wasn't quite right, so he opted for Southern Cal. Relying on a high-80's fastball, McGwire was 4-4 with a 3.04 ERA his freshman year. He was also making successful pitches to Kathy, the USC batgirl he eventually married in December 1984. In '82, he went to the Alaskan summer league to pitch for the Anchorage Glacier Pilots, or so he thought. Ron Vaughn, a USC and an Anchorage assistant, wanted to use him at first base. ''I had seen him hit in high school and in practice,'' Vaughn says. ''I couldn't see wasting him on the mound.'' Vaughn lowered McGwire's hands and balanced his stance, and the lethal, loopless stroke came naturally.

In his sophomore and junior years at Southern Cal, McGwire averaged .319 and .387 and launched 19 and 32 homers, respectively. The school record for a season had been 17 and the career record, 32. He made the Pan Am and Olympic teams and was the 10th pick in the draft. Pro ball proved a little more difficult. Over two full seasons in A, AA and AAA, he hit .298 and averaged 24 homers and 109 RBIs.

McGwire's biggest problems came in the field, where he committed 41 errors in the minors last year while trying to learn a new position, third base. This spring he came to camp knowing he had much to prove — and did prove it, winning a spot as a reserve infielder alongside fellow rookie Rob Nelson. When both slumped early, Nelson was the one to be sent to Tacoma, partly because McGwire was impressive despite his horrendous .167 batting average. ''The quality of his at bats was good,'' A's manager Tony La Russa says.

McGwire doesn't concern himself too much with numbers now. ''One great thing about being an everyday ballplayer is you don't make a season in a week, or a season in a month; you make a season in a season,'' McGwire says. Veterans who have seen McGwire hit liken his tight swing to Greg Luzinski's, his all-fields strength to Dale Murphy's and his high-arching shots to Harmon Killebrew's. A devoted weightlifter, McGwire may be just beginning to tap his power. ''Once he learns the strike zone better,'' Watson says, ''the numbers may be astronomical.''

When he thinks about his future, McGwire brightens with the hope of a long career, financial security and a couple of decades to hone his golf game for the Senior tour. Just think, a rookie again at 50. By his second retirement he could have more titles than Stephen King. There's MacDuffer, the Oakland Fader, Orange Crunch Part Two. . .
