But 3-6 would be a lot more like it.

you guys are cruel. This team is full of optimistic, unproven kids,
over-the-hill greybeards, broken-down old warhorses, and one or two
legitimate major leaguers. And you mock their longest winning streak
of the season? What a tough crowd!! Our warriors have given us a whole
week to remember, and you're raining on their nice little parade.

In June, long after the team has been mathematically eliminated from the
pennant race, you will look back at this past week and hate yourselves
for beign so jaded.

The optimism will pass, just like tears in rain. And then Millar will put
a paper bag full of sh** in their locker. It's the natural progression of
things.

DUDE! I said "long after the team has been ... eliminated"... They stand
about as much chance of being alive in the pennant race in June as
Tiger's winning the 2008 Grand Slam of Golf (or the way they're playing,
of the Tigers winning the AL Central).

Changes of Topic:
a) will either Gibbons or Steroid Barry get any ML ab's this year?
b) How long before the LA fans get on Torre's case?
c) How long before Jeter winds up playing 1b or LF?
d) Will Jim Leland be the first manager to be canned this year?

or, if you really want to go OT - who's winning in Pennsylavania
next Tuesday? Can Ron Paul stop the McCain Inevitable?? Does
anyone really GAF??

Cheers,

I figured that the phrase "long after the team has been mathematically
eliminated from the pennant race" by mid-May

> Changes of Topic:

I can see Gibbons getting a minor league contract somewhere, someone will
probably take a chance on him as a rehab project.

I don't see any NL teams picking up Bonds, maybe an AL team with plenty of
money to burn and a need for a DH? If Ortiz never gets back on track,
would the Red Sox take a chance on him?

> b) How long before the LA fans get on Torre's case?

I'm not that familiar with LA fans, are they as hardnosed as NY fans?

> c) How long before Jeter winds up playing 1b or LF?

Never. Jeter will play SS even until long after its evident that he needs
to be put out to pasture. With A-Rod at 3b, he won't even do the Ripken
thing and change position.

Depends on if they right the ship. As I heard on the radio today, no 0-7
team has ever made the playoffs, but plenty of 4-10 teams have.

Clinton. The real question is, will she win by single or double-digits?
If she wins by only single-digits, than Obama can walk away from PA much
more secure in his ability to capture the nomination at the convention
(plus he'll have narrowed the margin in delegates won in the state).
Clinton had a 20-point lead not too long ago, she should beat the snot of
out him (especially with the hullabaloo about his "bitter" comments).
Recent polling (those taken since the blowup) are showing that he's not
taking a negative hit from the comments (he's even in the lead in the
latest Indiana poll), but the polling also shows he's not moving in a
positive direction, so maybe the comments and the firestorm they
engendered have stopped any momentum he had.

> Can Ron Paul stop the McCain Inevitable??

I don't think so. Another question - will there be a third candidate in
this election?
