  1. I don't think it's possible for anyone to flip on a Dodger game every 5 days.
  2. According to Capgeek. Iginla is a UFA. He made $6 mil last year. Hopefully he takes a Koivu/Selanne cut in pay.
  3. Man, gone for a few days, and things happen. Sorry to see Bones go. But they took Sbisa. /giggle. So, if I got my facts in order. We traded Bobby Ryan to Ottawa for Silfverberg, Noesen, and their first round pick #10. We then used our #24 pick, and traded that with Sbisa /giggle, and Bones. While Bones will be a tough loss, 2 years of Kessler vs 3 years of Bones is a fair trade off. Sbisa is no loss. And when you think of it, GM of the year traded Ryan, Sbisa /giggle, Bones and got Silfverberg and Kessler, and upgraded from 24 to 10.
  4. Damn, I've cut 30 years off my life. Might as well start smoking.
  5. Sounds like a bunch of deer antler spray.
  6. Ingenious Axe Uses Kinetic Energy to Simplify Woodcuttinghttp://www.vipukirves.fi/english/index.htm Kind of cool if you need to chop wood.
  7. Tough one. He wasn't good at all this year, and after the trade to Atlanta last year. A year and a half isn't that long ago for a pitcher to regain their form, but he is 38. So his shelf life might have gone past the use by date. At most, minor league deal to see if he has anything left. But no guarantees on the MLB club.
  8. Sad news. Hopefully they have many many opt outs, once we get a better commissioner in office.
  9. Warrant: Ga. man returned to car with son inside More details coming out. He returned to the car to put something inside at lunch.
  10. Cheap, under control, with upside is probably what the Padres will be looking for. I think one of Shuck, Cowgill, or Calhoun and a pitcher. How good of a pitcher will depend on which of those three is included. If it's Calhoun, then an insignificant pitcher that will probably never make the team. If it's Shuck or Cowgill, then probably one of our top prospect pitchers.

  12. it is a lot of fun. But it's packed like crazy. I had friends that were on the rail last year, and when it's race time, it's packed in there like sardines. And no sporting event I've ever been too was more exciting than when Z won the Breeders Cup. When she made her move around the final turn, you could literally hear a roar coming from the far end of the grandstands and building up to the club area.
  13. Santa Anita is also changing it's surface after this meet ends. They acquired a lot of natural dirt/clay from LAX in an expansion or something they are doing there. So the Santa Anita track won't be a "human" mix, but instead a consistent natural dirt. They have already started piling it up in the outfield parking lot. So whatever notes you had about the Santa Anita surface, mainly speed, you might as well throw them out. It'll probably be much different in the fall meet.
  14. Well, California is in a really bad Drought. Tank is petitioning that the solution to the Drought is to fill the reservoirs up with Mt. Dew. It's his first step in making Earth made up entirely of mountain dew.
  15. #6, wonder if it will be the orange jersey stadium series jersey? And if #10 is true, that will be awesome for the Ducks.
  16. Once Del Mar changes to dirt after this year, more and more East Coasters will be coming out. Because they can run on dirt all year round between Del Mar/SA/Los Al. That's been the biggest problem, because most east coasters want their horses to run on dirt, not synthetic. If Del Mar does it right, it could be a rotation of SA/Del Mar/ and whatever east coast on a 3 year basis. Because they want to turn the BC into a 2 day event, if not a longer event. And So Cal can offer that glitz and glamour they are looking for, and things to do after the horses run.
  17. Acutally, the update lists that the Ducks are on the list also.
  18. Report: Kesler only wants to be traded to Penguins or ‘Hawks (Updated)

  20. You can't teach an old horse, a new trick.
  21. is next week the finale? Great episode, in typical 24 fashion.
  22. Somehow, in the homegrown, not having Erstad or Abbott seems wrong. Rosters need to be expanded.
