Silly Little Game Tonight On ESPN at 8 ET

Statistically, fantasy sports are more popular than hunting in the United States.



I'd be surprised if they mock the industry, quite frankly - ESPN's in a pretty good position taking advantage of the industry and I'd be surprised if they do anything to really hammer a cash cow.

Positive Bandwagon

I've actually had to re-work my workout routine of late just in case these boards get tougher. I'm half decent at the ninjy chop but oddly enough I'm weak at Judy Chop... we have a few ML batters who could pull it off, though. Be good around here, or I'll have to use this stuff!!!! I've been studyin...

50 Game PED Suspension coming out

Verlander would fit, but as a Tiger's fan I hope it's not him. Still, he's clearly pitching 'wrong' since the season started - like he's distracted. Other that would fit would be Lester - again... like he's distracted. (I'm assuming the player was one of the first to know and is thus pitching while ...

I'm sorry, did you just say you want to fight me? That's pretty funny... a piping little yapping bitch now wants to see if he's tough enough to punch out the guy calling him out?

Actually, regardless of the kernel of fact that you start with (you are unhappy), the rest of your posts in this thread just make you sound like a little bitch.

I have only one question for the people questioning Gekko's choices. How could he have known if he was going to start Padilla or not until he knew the full impact of his FA pickups? There's a strong chance he considered it and was even toying with it, but a guy with a spring training ERA of over 5 a...

How Do You Read Boxscores Today?

I use the googleweb for boxscores and iphone app for daytime updates when I'm not around a TV or googlemachine.



The googleweb is for real, Greg, I think it's going to be around a while.

I don't lack confidence or conviction, Glenn, and I'm not terribly afraid of taking a stand. It kind of felt like a gang mugging was going on. Sorry if that came across wrong to you?
