gift_of_game Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) I dunno why but each time I see Volkie's pic, I remember Speedy. edit:I know newbies will try their darndest to gain some cred but I'm with cheese here, those f#&kers in the sports threads are throwing their weight around like damn fools.

cheeselogger Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) hehe, I thought I'm the only one getting tired of the bandwagonning "witty" cracks and "old man-type wise words" that are starting to liter almost all the basketball related threads there... they're too reliant in the law of averages, throw in a lot of posts there and maybe 1 or 2 would accidentally make sense...

Ankiseth Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 12K's in 6 innings ... D@MN! Quote Link to comment
gift_of_game Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 and now they're trying to make hay on the "script" thing...hay naku. I was somehow expecting better arguments, hindi yung, "belat, you're just saying that `coz your team didn't win", sabay Quote Link to comment
cheeselogger Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 expecting better things from some of them would actually require them having higher sensibilities than what they have shown already... Quote Link to comment
gift_of_game Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 ah well, true that. it has become a young man's game I guess. Quote Link to comment
cheeselogger Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 I'd like to think I am still young though... hehehe and now as far as I'm concerned, Allas has not produced a quality thing not even their fans... nyahaha peace bro Anki! Quote Link to comment
kingsville Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Lakas ni volkie.. 12 Ks.. Naka-exercise na yung umpire kaka-punchout ah! Sige ayos lang, pagdating ng football at basketball, ako naman ang mang-hihingi ng ANALysis na yan! hehe.. Fukudome is my Homey - The foundation of this team starts with Grady "5-tool king" Sizemore and super lefty Johan Santana. Sizemore leads a loaded OF cast alongside Juan Pierre, namesake sensation Kosuke Fukudome and his real "hommie", Pat the bat! The last two OFs who were drafted in the middle rounds of this dynasty draft are doing an awesome job that they actually turned into a bargain. 1B Adrian Gonzalez is also a legit guy to remain for years to come. He's on pace for another 30-HR season which cements his place among the elite first basemen. Underrated studs Iwamura, Stephen Drew and Mark Reynolds are pleasant surprises. The only problem lies with the catcher position. Yadier is only a short-term solution, probably shorter than your thumb. Derek Jeter is struggling; which is not good as he's actually the "team captain" here! This is why S-Drew makes sense here. Howie Kendrick is glass, although he might be the future 2-bagger. Has to find some space for rookie David Murphy (probably DH) or dangle him as a trade bait. On the other hand, his solid pitching holds one of the best 1-2 punch aces in the league with Santana and fellow lefty Scott Kazmir; with another rookie phenom Johnny Cueto anchoring the middle of the rotation. His back-end of the rotation is actually better than most teams with Jair "mother's soap" Jurrjens, another Jap import Hiroki Kuroda and Royals future ace Luke Hochevar. It also helps to have two of the best closers in the league with Papelbon & Valverde. Consig Red Sox - Speed kills! Chase Utley's the man here alongside Red Sox favorite Big Papi. His speedy outfielders Ellsbury, Taveras and draft sleeper Carlos Gomez are paying good dividends for what should be a bright future in the outfield. They're versatile, too (Ellsbury and Gomez are both LF/CF/RF eligible). Bengie Molina is currently delivering at the C slot. They're currently manufacturing R, RBI and SB's and should continue that the rest of the way. But they gotta have TULO back. The franchise shortstop is shelved until the All-Star Break and evidently, there is no replacement for him. (check his lineup for today, it's freakin' empty). No wonder he's desperate for Tulo. Andy LaRoche might not be the long-term solution at 3B. They also possess a lethal 1-2 combo; with franchise ace Cole "the Camel" Hamels and Justin V. If Joba becomes a starter and Matt Cain heats up, you're looking at a jaw-dropping rotation that resembles a wall for everyone to bump on. Soria and Broxton are good relief pitchers. Soria is the present, Broxton for the future. But he has his favorite guy, Joe Blow. You know what that means, right? Mutts With Bats - This one's led by Ryan "a-hit-is-a-blessing" Howard. He's backed up by excellent speedsters Figgins, wonder FA pick-up Ryan Theriot and Carl Crawford. Acquiring Hunter Pence from a trade is a very good acquisition as he improved a lot on his power and some additional speed. Now holds one of the best outfield groups in the league, with Hideki Matsui and Aaron Rowand providing some more run support. Aramis Ramirez is doing splendid so far at DH, but can he stay healthy? If he does, this team will contend and sky's the limit for them. Jason Varitek is not getting young although he's decent so far, with Chris Iannetta waiting in the wings. Rolen is another 3B whose health is questionable as well. On his pitching side, Lackey is very good; not "lacking" and he's money as your ace! But the rest of the rotation has to be solidified. Sinkerballer Carmona is another good acquisition, but he's inconsistent right now. Nevertheless, he should be the one to be kept among the given SPs. AJ Burnett will give you K's and he still does up to now, but like your 3B, have to cross fingers for his health. Derek Lowe and Ollie Perez have to step it up. Danny Cabrera is a pleasant surprise from the Orioles. Now he's the one to watch; and if continues his ongoing success, his under-the-radar rotation will be noticed. The closers are not bad with Nats relievers Rauch and Chad Cordero, and Rays oldie-but-goodie Percival. Manny Parra is the future, but will he close? Quote Link to comment
Ankiseth Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 Hey Bro! Dallas has entertained me plenty the past couple of years. Past 2 yrs its been too much drama. That said.. i hate the Jason Kidd trade. Para hindi OT: Im back on top of our match-up!!! 3 QS from 3 starters.. Quote Link to comment
gift_of_game Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 (edited) ^lemme qualify that then, a retarded and lame young man's game. and actually, for every bad Allas fan, there's four vultures wearing purple and gold and 3 donning green so... hahaha! that said, I got nothing but respect for the "real" fans and the teams...it's those casual "super gatong" leeches that have made the whole thing ugly.

cheeselogger Posted May 24, 2008 Share Posted May 24, 2008 ^ain't it now obvious we're from different sides of the fence here but we're griping about the same thing... hehehe I guess nothing else left to do there but wait out those fairweather fans/hecklers and wait for the light of day to once again shine there... one last parting shot, damn you Cuban for encouraging this kind of fanaticism! nyahaha Quote Link to comment
