[bleuMadonna]

- Do you think the Red Sox will repeat?
Hell, no...I can hope, but I would be surprised if they even got there. I think we'll miss Pedro and I'm not sold on Wells at all. And Miller is still a question mark. The bullpen may save us, but that's providing we can stay in the game that long. I'm hoping Clement will be good and if Schill is healthy, we still have a chance. But we're already starting without him, so that is not good. He probably won't be with the program until May or June. He's still in spring training mode.

will you be my best friend? I have no girlfriends who appriciate sports, let alone understand or know about them... :inlove:

Oh fuck...this is a great post! :roflmao:

[bleuMadonna]

Awww, fer sure. I know what you mean. One time, I took a friend to a hockey game because she wanted to get a glimpse of my other world, as she called it (she's clueless about every sport, except maybe baseball)...Anyway, I spent the entire game explaining every time the whistle blew, offsides, penalties, you name it. And the kicker is her dad played minor league hockey. She just didn't get into sports one bit.

I have my sister and my mom, though. My whole family is sports crazy. It's just so much fun and we all have such a great time watching games together when we can. Last year, I got to watch the Super Bowl with my whole family plus a bunch of friends...40 people crammed into my bro's house. It was awesome, especially since the Pats won...This year, I had to work on the Super Bowl, so I was the only one missing...

- Same here. It's always been a tradition to get together for the Super Bowl at a relatives house. :nanner6:

I want a girl that can rattle off sports statistics and form a very biased but informed opinion on a team.

You two give me hope.

Don't ever stop.

Yup, the last three have been at my brother's. He is one hell of a cook, so the food is always kick-ass. He built this big-ass smoker in the back yard, I swear, it looks like a Viking or something, the stacks are so high. I'm surprised no one's complained to the zoning board, hehe. He did ribs and chicken on it, plus, he had all this Mexican food and just a shitload of stuff. Everybody brings stuff, like snacks and beer.

LOL...I don't plan on it. It's weird, though. Most of the guys I have dated have not been into sports. No wonder they haven't worked out, LOL...I mean, it's pretty sad when I have to explain hockey to a guy. At least that one was into baseball :biggrin:

I think she should be a Toronto Maple Leafs fan. That way we can get into long arguments during the season over who has the better team, and then channel the growing passion into incredible sex.

DENY! He just got suspended overseas because he two-handed some European player in the playoffs over there. Hence, he's not a pussy.


zho-ay zhun-o...wtf? Shouldn't he be retired by now? He wasn't even that good with the Bruins.

If you are refering to Joe Juneau, he retired after the playoffs last year.

Other than that, I have no idea who you are talking about.

[Trizzak]

Let's take a journey into the Bruins offseason. Who didn't they re-sign? Mike Knuble (Phi), Michael Nylander (NYR), Brian Rolston (MIN), Sean O'Donnell (PHX), Doug Doull (PHX). Also, Glen Murray is an Unrestricted Free Agent and can sign anywhere.

That's about 80 goals and a lot of muscle gone from the team. So who did they sign to replace them? Tom Fitzgerald (Tor) Pfft, a fringe player at best. Bruins are screwed.

[bleuMadonna]

:shame: on me...At least I was right that he should have retired :biggrin:

Who the heck do you have who's any good, besides your goalie? I won't pick on Saku Koivu because he has a cool name and he beat cancer and he's a good player.

Yes, this goes without saying. The Jacobs boys are shitty owners. They are still living off the glory days of the 70s. They get good people, but then they don't keep them. Can you say Bill Ranford? They got him back after his reign in Edmonton.
I'm bummed about Murray. He finally got his shit together and now they probably won't pay him. It's a miracle Bourque stayed as long as he did.

I'm glad we can agree on Koivu. That man is an ispiration to me. In return, I won't fuck with Raycroft. He's their goalie for the future and fully deserved the Calder trophy. Lots of respect for the rookie.

Zednik is a 25 goal man, Ryder had a great rookie season, Ribiero is a fucking pest when he has the puck, Souray arguably has the hardest shot in the league, and the prospects coming up next year (Perezhogin, Plekanec, Higgins) will leave your jaw gaping. Throw a UFA up on the top line like Kovalev (sweet son of a bastard please come back) or Selanne and you have some potent top lines.

[Trizzak]

I love how blatantly off topic we are. Wahoo! Red Eye Lounge!

Kovalev didn't do so bad. It took him a while before he got his shit together, too, but he seemed to do well up your way. I know he had his problems in New York...Raycroft is the shit. It's about time we got a fucking decent goalie. Been a while...Hey, we're not really fighting. Does this mean no violence or sex? Damn ;) I have a mean swing :biggrin:

Hahahaha, it is funny how this got totally sidetracked!

I've been waiting for two arguments I'd have a hard time winning.

Kovalev - That wrist thing

Ribiero - Probably faking an injury, then taunting the Bruin bench

[bleuMadonna]

Hahahah, yeah, that was pretty lame on Kovalev's part, but even though the B's won that game, you guys won the series, so what can I say, really??

OMG, How could I forget about Ribeiro??? LOL...He only gets a 5 or so for the performance, since it wasn't very convincing ;o) The Bruins sure didn't buy it. But they were pissed because they were losing.

[Trizzak]

I'm such a hypocrite. I would trade Ribs in a heartbeat because I think he's detrimental to the Habs, but want Kovalev back despite the fact he's a complete primadonna.

[iha]

The first Braves game is today. :dance:

[Keith Moon]

- The Cardinals first game is today...but, I'll be having to follow the game on the web during class tonight... :rolleyes2

[EtchedInCold]

The Tigers are number one in the league right now! Take that!

Yeah, the man can score. He has good hands...when he's not bothered by that wrist ;).

[bleuMadonna]

I'm noncommittal about hatred for the Astros or Rangers.

[iha]

I'm so excited.. Braves game starts in 30 min. They're supposed to be good this year (but they say that every year).

[iha]

7-0, braves are losing.. not even done w/ the 2nd inning.. Smoltz is already out. :crying:

[jazz]

sorry, iha, but i'm happy.

now watch us screw it all up. :hmm:

i take it it's Braves v Marlins?

Josh Beckett's a pitcher for the Marlins.

[EtchedInCold]

I don't even know the Tiger' pitchers yet.

[Trizzak]

I'm a Jays fan...

Pity lineup starts here -->

Laughing lineup starts here -->

aaaaaand commence!

[EtchedInCold]

:nelson:

[bleuMadonna]

Awww, Trizzak. All this stuff goes in cycles. It'll get better.

Fricken Jeter and Matsui got homers, and Jeter's was off Foulke GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR..But Tek and Ortiz got them, too, which is a good sign. Bats are waking up.

[Trizzak]

The Jays are in the same division as the Yankees and Red Sox, who happen to be having a "Let's see who can spend the most money on talent" competition. So when does the Jays cycle start?

When Steinbrenner goes bankrupt, and Red Sox fans say "meh, we've had our title, what the heck eh? Someone else can have it."

[EtchedInCold]

ahem...last year's records

Detroit 72 Wins - 90 losses - 4th in their division
Toronto 67 Wins - 94 losses - DEAD FUCKING LAST in their division

[EtchedInCold]

and the year before that? 43- 119

[Trizzak]

and the year before that?
This is a MLB thread, not history class.

[EtchedInCold]

i was just bringing up the point that they were 1 loss away from tying the all time loss record.

[Trizzak]

...well that is pretty god awful...

I'm just pissed that the Jays lost Delgado to Florida.

DON'T SAY ONE FUCKING WORD JAZZ!!

When Steinbrenner goes bankrupt, and Red Sox fans say "meh, we've had our title, what the heck eh? Someone else can have it."

Meh, the Yankees have always spent a ton on their players and they still managed not to win it all, like when the Jays won in what, 92 and 93 I think? The spending sprees of the Sox have been approaching the Yankees spending mostly since Lucchino and company have taken over. And look at some of the teams that have won in the last few years...the Marlins, Angels. They weren't exactly breaking the bank spending-wise. Hell, the first time the Marlins won, Wayne Huizenga had a fire sale. Edgar Renteria and Livan Hernandez were on that first team I think...So don't despair. It could happen.

[EtchedInCold]

The Tigs were gonna trade Bobby Higginson to Florida, but that was one of 4 teams he had a veto over... so we kept him...

[iha]

we loose :| That was a very pathetic game. they better get there shit together before next game

[Fhilly]

ahh yess... I love the start of the season (softball too)... especially when the yanks look good (as they often though) :wink3:

Awwww, no offense, but I don't like the Braves. They've won like 12 or 13 division titles in a row...enough already. If the Red Sox can't win it this year, I'm rooting for the Cubs to win it because they had even a longer title drought than the Sox. If not the Cubs, then the Phillies. The people in Philly are ready to jump off the bridges with no pro team winning a title since the Sixers won in '83, I think it was. And they were so bummed about the Super Bowl loss to the Pats. They are still talking about it here. I wish they cared more about baseball here.

Yes. i really like the uniforms.. the tomahawk is fine too.. i mean it could be worse.

this game is going much better :blue:

[EtchedInCold]

the tigers took their first series 2-1 :yay:

[EtchedInCold]

when?

[Keith Moon]

when?



- 3 o'clock.

[EtchedInCold]

today? sounds like fun. I've never been to a game anywhere anytime.

[Keith Moon]

today? sounds like fun. I've never been to a game anywhere anytime.


- Yeah, it'll be a good time. So far, a lot of people here from work have already left to go tailgate. A lady even left here at 8 am. :what: :nana:

[iha]

who do you play next? we got washington.

The Mets at home. Oh well. Mets should be easy I think.

[jazz]

yeah, the mets aren't off to the best start.

[EtchedInCold]

got swept by the Reds...

[bleuMadonna]

- Yesssssssss :nana: . I'm going to the Cardinals home opener for the first and the last time to see a home opener at Busch Stadium. :cry: :dance2:
COOL. They are playing the Phillies today. The Cards should win, hehehe. The Phils' bullpen has sucked ass so far. Worrell is horrible and (Un)Rheal Cormier hasn't had a good season in a couple of years. He's giving up lots of homers already. This Charlie Manuel looks clueless in handling a pitching staff. I know it's still early in the season, but cripes, can't anyone pitch past six innings anymore? Lame.

[Trizzak]

alright, I'll be watching the Jays game if CBC is covering it.

Hot damn I need satellite tv again.

[jazz]

the marlins play everyday until next thursday, then they play another 10 games in a row.

:nana:

earn those paychecks! :dance2:

[iha]

Braves beat the mets 3 - 1... not a suprise.

The braves have 9 games (counting the 4 they've already played) before they get a break. It's amazing how many games they play a year.

[jazz]

i know the money's nice and all, but i don't know how they don't get bored playing so many games.

[Trizzak]

Okay bleuMadonna, you can gloat all you want!

But the Jays made it close and were one hit away from the win!

[bleuMadonna]

Okay bleuMadonna, you can gloat all you want!

But the Jays made it close and were one hit away from the win!

:biggrin:....I had that game on the gamecast on my computer at work and had to keep from swearing out loud during that ninth inning! I couldn't believe they almost blew it. Well, I take that back, yeah, I could believe it. Foulke is starting to scare me. I hope he finds his 2004 form soon, otherwise, we could be fucked.

[EtchedInCold]

Tigers up 8-1, top of the fourth... looks good.

[bleuMadonna]

Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck. Sox are down 5-1 to the Jays...Ok, Trizzak, your turn to gloat :biggrin:...

[bleuMadonna]

I'm so done with David Wells already. THREE straight homers off him in the THIRD fucking inning. Fricken ex-Yankee scum, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

[bleuMadonna]

OMFG...I love David Oritz...Three-run homer, we're back in it!!!

[EtchedInCold]

all this in a span of 3 minutes... gotta love this game...

Tigs are up 11-1 now.

[bleuMadonna]

^^^ I just saw that on the scoreboard. Amazing. I'm happy for the Tigers. They have sucked for a long time. They need a good season.

[EtchedInCold]

:nod:
and i've been with them since i got a TV of my own 5 years ago...

they're #1 in the A.L. in hits, batting average, runs, tied for 1st in HRs, and 2nd in walks... :up:

[bleuMadonna]

:up: I'm keeping track on ESPN.com...no cable for me. I have the Phillies/Cards game on the radio.

[EtchedInCold]

I'd root for the Cards... not that i have anything against the Phillies. I just like the Cards better. I'll eventually root for the Phillies (against the Yanks, Orioles, Cubs...)

[bleuMadonna]

Yeah, I follow the Phils because I live down here now and all. They have sucked for a while, too. They are my NL team. I live and die with the Red Sox all the way.

[bleuMadonna]

Shit, Sox bullpen is gagging big time. Two runs in the eight. Bases loaded and Halama hits a batter. Loser. Grrrrr.

*edit* Make that six runs. Fucking grand slam, Zaun. 12-5 :(

[Trizzak]

I'm so done with David Wells already. THREE straight homers off him in the THIRD fucking inning. Fricken ex-Yankee scum, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
are you sure he isn't still on the Yankees payroll? :neener:

[bleuMadonna]

are you sure he isn't still on the Yankees payroll? :neener:
:biggrin:...He so sucks...and man, the bullpen :puke:...I hope Schill is in good shape this year, or we will be in serious trouble.

[Trizzak]

:biggrin:...He so sucks...and man, the bullpen :puke:...I hope Schill is in good shape this year, or we will be in serious trouble.
He was hit for 6 runs in 6 innings in a triple a ballgame today or yesterday.

Take from that what you will...

[Keith Moon]

- Wow, I witnessed one of the most strange Cardinal games in a long time. It was a good game since the Cards' came back and won, but fans just weren't really in the game at all. And just the way we won (via two (not "new" :what: ) straight walks) and then our top 3 hitters not getting one hit.


- I thought about bringing the camera to show you guys the new Cardinal stadium and how it's coming along, but I decided to be stupid and not bring it...and we were surrounded by hot girls - I messed up, I know :shame:


- But there will be more games.




- And Cards' sucked today :shame:

[bleuMadonna]

OK, Trizzak, gloat away. You guys took the series. We climb back only to get knocked down once again...bleuMadonna is very blue :(

Are you fucking kidding me? Batista blew that save! Needed Orlando Hudson to bail him out. :shame: Fucking bullpen.









(Hurrays! We won! :surprised )

[bleuMadonna]

(Hurrays! We won! :surprised )
LMAO, you sound like me. I was bemoaning the Sox' bullpen. Fucking choker Timlin. After they fucking tie it up in the fucking ninth. The big scoreboard in the sky says Jays win :(. Damn, we need some home cooking. I hope we kick some Yankees ass tomorrow :biggrin:

[iha]

John Smoltz got 15 strikeouts.. and we still lost. :faint: :puke:

[jazz]

the marlins are doing a lot better. we won our first series of the year.

we have dio's phillies up next. :boxer:

[bleuMadonna]

Phils have hot bats right now. They beat the Cards 13-4 today. Pat Burrell is leading the league in RBIs with 15...Pat the Bat is back!

- :shame:

[bleuMadonna]

Awwwww, I'm sorry, Keith. I actually couldn't believe the Phils took two out of three. The Marlins have owned the Phils the last couple of years, though, so they will probably get smacked again.

[Keith Moon]

- I'm probably speaking way too soon, but I currently don't like the Cardinals catcher situation...I don't think he has the confidence.

[Trizzak]

Have you been to the new stadium yet?

[dionysusolympus]

Have you been to the new stadium yet?

Nope, not yet. :crying: :nerd:

[bleuMadonna]

Nope, not yet. :crying: :nerd:
Awwww, you should go if you get the chance. It's really nice. I went to plenty of Red Sox games when they sucked. Baseball is just a fun way to spend an afternoon or evening.

[jazz]

Nope, not yet. :crying: :nerd:

:nelson:

[Trizzak]

wah?
Delgado...the guy who pretty much leads every single hitting statistic in Blue Jays history signed with the Marlins during the off season.

Yeah, fuck him

/still not bitter

[dionysusolympus]

i understand how you feel because we've had that done to us before, but :shrug: fuck 'em, you know?

[bleuMadonna]

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, Sox get their rings and kick SKANKEES ass....8-1. All is right with the world. Wakefield was really on and A-Rod made another costly error, hahaha. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOX!

[iha]

yeah, yankees got their ass kicked

[bleuMadonna]

Holy crap, Pat Burrell just hit another home run. He has 17 RBIs...Sick...

[iha]

if the braves had hit vs. the mets like they are hitting vs. the nationals.. they would have killed them. :frown:

I think we only had 2 hits that whole game... pretty sad.

[jazz]

the marlins are close to losing. :ohnoes:

[bleuMadonna]

Don't worry, the Phils bullpen will probably blow it :biggrin:

[jazz]

nope, mike lowell blew it. :down:

[bleuMadonna]

Awww, sowwy.

[iha]

Braves win 11 - 2 :smile:

[jazz]

it was the bottom of the ninth, 2 outs and we had two runners on with juan pierre batting. he hit it nice enough to outrun the throw, but they threw it just in time. :shame:

[bleuMadonna]

Well, the Phils almost blew it. There's always tomorrow.

[Keith Moon]

Well, the Phils almost blew it. There's always tomorrow.



- They won again?...:sad: :dammit:

[bleuMadonna]

yup.

[Trizzak]

Weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee, Sox get their rings and kick SKANKEES ass....8-1. All is right with the world. Wakefield was really on and A-Rod made another costly error, hahaha. GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO SOX!
I've always liked Wakefield. I'd like to see a knuckleball pitcher on the Jays roster, especially now with the new turf being more infielder friendly.

[jazz]

- They won again?...:sad: :dammit:

we have two more games with them. today at 7:00 and tomorrow at 1:00. let's see if we don't choke tonight.

[dionysusolympus]

well, you guys always have the Miami Dolphins... :metal: :what:

[jazz]

don't remind me. :what:

[iha]

if the Braves loose to the Nationals.................

[iha]

wow.. rain delay in the bottom of the 9th

[jazz]

marlins win 8-2. :nanner: :wookie: :jig:

[iha]

marlins win 8-2. :nanner: :wookie: :jig:
cool. the braves game is on rain delay in the bottom of the 9th. braves were winning, then the closer (Kohl) came in and in one inning managed to allow the nationals to score 3 runs making them 1 ahead of the braves. whenever the rain delay is over the braves have to score atleast one run in one inning or they lose.

[iha]

rain delay.. and now we already have 1 out.

[iha]

and we loose :|

[jazz]

i have an off-day tomorrow. perfect since the marlins will be playing a 1 o'clocker.

[EtchedInCold]

the marlins already got 3 CGs out of their pitching...
but they're 4-4 with 40rf and 15ra :hmmm:

[dionysusolympus]

jazz, your Florida Minos did well last night. I'll give them that. Let's see if they can keep it up... :rock:

[jazz]

i know. their offense is slacking. :shame:

[jazz]

i don't know about that. remember the marlins win a game, then lose a game the next day. :rolleyes:

[jazz]

yeah! dontrelle willis with back-to-back shutout games. marlins 4-0.

:wookie:

[iha]

Holy shit. The Braves are getting their asses kicked by the NATIONALS. The nationals are ranked last in the devision, the Braves are frirst (I guess I should say were first).

How pathetic.

[iha]

11-4 now. They scored again as I was typing that.

they scored 6 runs in one inning.

[jazz]

they're underestimating them perhaps?

i'm used to that happening with the miami hurricanes. :rolleyes:

[iha]

our pitching is sucking.. and our hitting isn't that great. that probably has something to do with it.

[bleuMadonna]

Three hits? That's all the Phils got? And some idiot at work said Willis was overrated. Moron.

[Keith Moon]

- Card's almost made a comeback, but our big hitter (Pujols/Poo-holes) wasn't able to come through... :shame:

[jazz]

watching the yanks/sox game. bottom of the ninth.

[EtchedInCold]

score? (laziness prevails)

[jazz]

sox lost. 5-2.

[bleuMadonna]

sox lost. 5-2.
Son of a $#@$%^^&*&^T*&% bitch!!!

^&^T :plain: :barf2: :ak: :argh: :dammit: :cry: :brick:

- So how many times have the Yanks and the Red Sox met already this year? :what: And who's winning the series thus far?

[jazz]

Five times so far, SKANKEES ahead 3-2...there's always tomorrow :evil:

[iha]

- So how many times have the Yanks and the Red Sox met already this year? :what: And who's winning the series thus far?

I think today was their 2nd game.. and the series is 1-1 now.

[iha]

shit, lots of shit is going down in the yankies game right now

[bleuMadonna]

shit, lots of shit is going down in the yankies game right now
We have it on at work, but the volume's down, so I don't know what happened, but it looks like Tito and others got tossed for arguing ball and strikes. Arroyo's flustered and now the SKANKEES have tied it up...boooo

[iha]

the hitting coach got thrown out.. the other coaches were just having to hold him back b/c he was acting like he was about to attack the umpire. he put his hand on one of the umpires arms.. i'm suprised that's not some kind of offense. :shrug:

i didn't see the pitch in question b/c i was going to get some subway, but my brother said he thinks it should have been a strike.

[Agent]

haha word, brawl time

[iha]

Now Francona is out

[bleuMadonna]

Yep, I just saw that...He's outta control, LOL.

[jazz]

just put the game on. i guess it all died down, huh?

[iha]

:nod:

[iha]

holy shit, gary sheffield just hit a sox fan in the stands in right field

[bleuMadonna]

OMFG, I can't believe all that crap that just went down. He hit the fan before he threw the ball in, too! What a chucklehead! Not that the two runs wouldn't have scored, but what an idiot.

[Mufumonk]

holy shit, gary sheffield just hit a sox fan in the stands in right field


Roid rage.

[bleuMadonna]

Now the AP is saying the fan grazed Sheffield's face with his right arm in some sort of upper-cut swing. This is fucked up.

[Trizzak]

Sounds like it was a great game to watch.

Jays won 2 - 1. Halladay with a complete game. It would be nice if the Yanks and Sox split their season series 50-50. Might give the rest of the division a chance.

Except Tampa.

Tampa sucks.

[bleuMadonna]

Yeah, it's always nuts with Sox/Yankees. Of course, they brought up the 2003 ALCS when Karim Garcia and another Yankeed got into it with a Sox ground crew guy :biggrin:...Last year, the Sox won the season series by a game. Just as it should be, hehe. That's awesome about Hallady.

[EtchedInCold]

Sheffield said he felt like his lip was busted open and wanted to beat the guy down, but he thought of the consequences...

[Keith Moon]

- I can't believe I missed all of this... :goes to ESPN.com:

[jazz]

marlins/mets playing now. i hate when they play day games. i always have to record them and watch later. :livid:

[bdf]

Astros are now 5-6. :/

[jazz]

the marlins got fucking robbed. in the ninth, cabrera's foot clearly touched the plate and the stupid ump called him out. it resulted in the score only being 3-3, when it should've been 4-3. the mets wound up scoring the winning run in the ninth.

:livid:

why can't they implement a challenge system like in football when it comes to shit like this?

[bleuMadonna]

The umps seem to be getting worse and worse. They were so lame in the latest Sox/Yankees series.

[bleuMadonna]

Manny Ramirez just smacked a grand slam. I love him...he has all the RBIs...6-1 Sox. :up:

[bdf]

My team lost today. :dead:

[bleuMadonna]

My team lost today. :dead:
Booooo.

Hey now.....to be fair, the Cards had an EXCELLENT shot at getting into the Series last season. That, and Pujols is just......wow, that man has skills.

BUT....I was rooting for the SAWX all the way, haha! :rasta:
