What are we waiting on???
Christmas? New Years?
Pick one! :lol:

This round has went painfully slow.
-
I highly doubt he refused the ball...
Now I doubt he refused the ball but if he wanted to start I'm sure he could have. I believe it was more of a front office move than a player move. They protect their investment by pulling him over the tiniest thing.
-
Sounds iffy to me as well. The Nationals placed him on the DL today, but removed from from the start because he couldn't get loose and they didn't want to chance anything. I honestly doubt they do this for any pitcher other than Strasburg and I also believe that many pitchers pitch without being fully loosened up to start so yeah I believe Strasburg needs to man up!
-
I'll say Player B is Brett Favre. I'm guessing the "two-year period" isn't from the last two years anyway. Favre threw a ton of INT's in a two year span and I'm guessing you're using good QB's to compare so that's my guess.
-
I think he'll be better this season. I'm not a Bengals fan by any means (Browns fan actually) but I think he'll have a solid season and come close to matching his 2006 season. He has a good offensive core, if he can stay healthy then he should fare pretty well.
-
Terrell Owens will be late for practice due to missing his flight.
-
Doubtful
Well the other day he said he didn't want to play for the Phillies BUT Jason Bay also said he didn't want to play for the Mets and we see how that turned out.
-
Hopefully Oswalt nixes this trade to the Phillies, but in baseball you hear one thing and something different happens.
If this trade goes through then the Braves have to get some kind of offensive help and maybe a cheap reliever or starter. I would like to see them make a blockbuster for Bautista and Downs but I doubt it happens. Willingham is another good player who could help down the stretch. Hopefully something works out.

The issue has been nipped in the bud. According to ESPN.com Bryant was unaware of any tradition and did not care for Roy E. Williams tone. A talk with Rodney Harrison set Bryant straight about the tradtion.
And you actually believe that? :lol:

"Space Bound" is an amazing song. Shoot the whole CD is amazing!
-
The move they need to make most at this point has nothing to do with a trade. They have got to get McLouth out of there.
The OF situation is this.
Nate McLouth
Jason Heyward
Melky Cabrera
Matt Diaz
Eric Hinske
Jordan Schafer
In the minors you have:
Gregor Blanco
Willy Tavares
Josh Anderson
Unless I'm forgetting someone that's basically it. There isn't really anyone "internally" that is going to strengthen that group enough to make a difference late in the season. Phillies are making a run and the Braves need a more potent bat in the lineup to help because of the recent struggles from Troy Glaus.
They need to go all out and try to win this year, go after Bautista, Hart, Ross, Young, Upton, Crawford, etc.
I still think they'll make a move but I'm not sure as to how big of one yet.
-
* Braves GM, Frank Wren, said that he believes he can strengthen the Braves OF internally instead of trading for help.
He is crazy if he thinks that!
-
St. Louis is thin, no doubt. Shelby Miller alone though could get a deal done, with a few average players.
You have to be joking? Miller is really good but the price goes up even more when you trade within the division. No way Miller and a few B prospects get a deal done. NO CHANCE!
-
Oswalt also said he doesn't want to play for the Phillies.

Okay, good post. Let me change my point of attack for a second...
There have been stories in the news in the last 5-10 years about hazing activities at the high school sports level, where things have gone completely out of control. If I really need to do the research to prove my point, I will, but I know some of you remember what I'm talking about. At first it was something small, that eventually escalated to dangerous and something terrible eventually happened. It's a tradition in pro sports, so its a tradition at the collegiate level, and then eventually high schools follow suit and on occassion something terrible happens. Grown men know where their is a line, many 15-18 year old in high school do not. If the dumb hazing activities that occur at the professional level were no longer considered "tradition" and were looked at as the stupid activities that they are, don't you think that would trickle down as well?
Hope that makes sense.
I understand what you're saying and I do remember the stories from the dangerous hazing in high school, but until something like that happens on the professional level I don't see any reason to do anything about it. We see, especially in the NFL, a lot of bad character from these players especially off the field, but on the field these guys are a family and this is a part of what they do. It hasn't gotten out of hand because they know where to draw the line, and instead of telling them to stop it altogether then just have them talk about how it can be used as a bonding activity for teammates as long as it doesn't get out of hand or control.

Because these are grown men. They aren't little kids.
It compares more than you give it credit for though.
