I thought for what its worth a very good movie. Not Oscar level but definitly a "feel good story". The Rock does suprisingly well, and I enjoyed the football scenes.CYGNUS003https://www.blogger.com/profile/01315175478466489460noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1158900778014896762006-09-22T00:52:00.000-04:002006-09-22T00:52:00.000-04:00Having Rich Harden healthy enough for a 5 game ser...Having Rich Harden healthy enough for a 5 game series gives Oakland the edge. His line today was 7 K's through 3 innings, even if he comes out of the bullpen, the man is dangerous and so are the Oakland A's<BR/><BR/>I too predicted the A's and Mets, but I am an A's fan so I don't think I count. Love the Thomas for MVP, but we all know Jeter will win it because of the East Coast Bias, seriously the dude plays on a team full of all stars, they could have had Nefi Perez as the starting SS and still be expected to win the whole damn thing. He is NOT a difference maker ala Frank Thomas.Tony Ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00236361031919337298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1158896781046766082006-09-21T23:46:00.000-04:002006-09-21T23:46:00.000-04:00The Game of Shadows journalists have been sentence...The Game of Shadows journalists have been sentenced to jail.<BR/>GOOD.<BR/><BR/>Media members..and reporters and journalists are about as trustworthy as..well..they aren't. Someone leaked testimony that was illegal to leak..they are covering up for those people..so they go to jail. Good riddance. <BR/>Reporters don't need a federal law to protect them from divulging their sources...Reporters should know that writing things accusing a person of illegal acts, then saying "we have sources..but we can't talk about them"..is bullcrap. As a sports fan, until I know who the sources are, I'll consider those two journalists to be nothing but liars and sensationalists.rafaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09286062038193331350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1158887828023800662006-09-21T21:17:00.000-04:002006-09-21T21:17:00.000-04:00chrth:Shanoff knows I'm just busting his chops.

While of course that doesn't immediately negate any concern, at least it's not like Barry Bonds or Roger Clemens doubling in size since their debut in the leagues.Christian Thomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16552580025935909875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1158887435058382682006-09-21T21:10:00.000-04:002006-09-21T21:10:00.000-04:00Does it spoil it if I suggest that Ryan Howard jus...Does it spoil it if I suggest that Ryan Howard just simply has not yet been caught on paper (or in a vial) yet, and that maybe he's just like the McGwire's, Giambi's and Canseco's who stormed through major league pitching in their early years like Alexander through the Eastern Hemisphere?<BR/><BR/>I could be THAT jaded (and spoil Dan's fun with Howard to boot), but I won't.

That is great! They wore protest t-shirts and then left in unison at 5:08pm (in honor of Brooks Robinson and Cal Ripken). I love it when fans make people take notice to hope and create change.<BR/><BR/>Also, I hope your prediction comes true for two reasons...as a Mets fan, I'd rather face the A's than the Yanks loaded lineup. Second, that was also my exact prediction...in fact, as it stands now, I would have 6 of the 8 playoff teams correct - pretty damn good!Jake Chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08201105067598986800noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1158878031416580662006-09-21T18:33:00.000-04:002006-09-21T18:33:00.000-04:00Since the CWS are practically out of it, I really ...Since the CWS are practically out of it, I really don't know who to root for in the playoffs.<BR/><BR/>Yankees? They have enough titles.<BR/>A's? I don't want to hear how much of a genious Beane supposedly is.<BR/>Twins? I'll never root for them.<BR/><BR/>That leaves the Tigers. Ugh.<BR/><BR/>I don't think anyone in the NL can run with the AL. Sure the Mets are good, but they play in a weak division versus the weak NL teams. Put the Mets in the AL and they are an 88 win team. Book it. If I'm wrong I'll cook my crow later.Megahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14407561625097289402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624629.post-1158877041126409142006-09-21T18:17:00.000-04:002006-09-21T18:17:00.000-04:00Just got an email from my brother: he bought ticke...Just got an email from my brother: he bought tickets to Game 5 of the Division Series at Shea. So all of you: hope that the Dodgers get the WC (that's why he got them) and that the series goes to game 5. Heck, I don't even care if the Mets win, it'll be fun just to go.<BR/><BR/>Christian (High Point, NC)Christian Thomahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16552580025935909875noreply@blogger.com
