If baseball didn't have this kind of thing to talk about what would they talk about? :hm

- 4hr pitching duels
- The first base stare down
- Long fly balls
- Foul balls
- The grounder
- Shading him slightly left
- The pitch selection
- Wild pitch
- Infield pop up
- Meetings at the mound

I'm really trying to understand the excitement of this game.

Please help. :al

If these guys had more brains then teeth, they'd do these things one at a time. First go ice-skating, then fool around with a puck, then you go to the bar and beat the **** out of somebody. The day would last longer, and these guys would have a lot more fun. Another reason why hockey isn't a sport is that it's not played with a ball. Anything not played with a ball can't be a sport. These are my rules, I make 'em up.

EDIT: On topic, about Manny, not surprised. I will admit I did take some glee reminding some friends what a big part that juicing cheater was to 2 Boston WS wins.

Not sure where a demand was made.

I looked at it as having a different opinion like with cigars. Some like a certain Marca or what have you and some don't. People are allowed to voice their opinion either way.

To Smitty and all baseball fans I might have offended please accept my public apology. No harm was intended.
