Overheard by stewardess on plane. You've F***ed me for the last time Greeks, time to send some Crusaders up your *ss.

atawa · May 21, 2003, 08:37

Better dont play against Americans on the plane or you might find yourself in Cuba

rah · May 21, 2003, 09:13

Good one.

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 09:23

i can just see it, arrested for air rage

rah · May 21, 2003, 09:31

Not arrested, DETAINED, never to be heard from again.

Gotta love Homeland security.

RAH

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 09:33

Detained??? isn't that some sort of 3rd world term used by dictatorships....

oh silly me, the USA is on their decline

btw, the passport arrived yesterday...so i am all set

rah · May 21, 2003, 09:57

Very good. Now what's the damn rotation.

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 10:20

patience grasshopper.....whats the weather going to be like...what? can't predict, how can i predict the rotation

rah · May 21, 2003, 10:34

What, can't you count to 5?

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 12:14

well of course i can......but i can't guarrantee anything...besides my idea of five and the yanks idea of five could be different....

heres hoping clemens gets a no no in one of the boston games so 300 can be with the twins, wrigley and good times

btw, you do the math for the cubbies..whom would he be up against.....

Hmmm, I don't really care.

They're all good.

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 13:43

yankee staff is waaaaaaaaay better ..no offence..your staff is just younger....besides baylor will overpitch them and blow out their arms

rah · May 21, 2003, 15:00

I'll take the Cubs staff now, and five years from now

Just wish the Chubs had the Yankee's offense.

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 15:11

WELL YOUR pitching looks good when you don't face a dh....both mussina and petite can match your big guns pretty good...

but in five years time ..who knows..we may not have baseball then

rah · May 21, 2003, 16:02

Not facing a DH, always a silly argument. over the course of the year, per pitcher it's amounts to a few less hits, so it's barely significant. Especially since the average start is less than 7 innings and they're facing pitch hitters from the 6th inning on when they're still in.
At least our pitchers can hit. I think Pryor is batting around .350.

While statistically it makes a small difference, GOOD pitching is still good pitching and I'll take the Cubs staff.
(besides, cut me some slack, the yanks always have good pitching, it's rare that cubs fans can say that)

And in five years, (the owners and players better not **** it up)

atawa · May 21, 2003, 16:06

What ticks me off in MP threads:

People talking completely off topic about baseball

Hmmm, seems some others participated in this threadjack.

I hate pots that call the kettle black.

atawa · May 21, 2003, 16:34

Hats off

rah · May 21, 2003, 16:50

It's all about game.

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 17:42

its more about +1 than anything else ...

cubbies have good pitching....without a doubt, but if prior is half as good as clemens for his career.....

clemens is still pitching well..

the dh just gives that extra protection in the lineup and no way prior batrs 350 over 600 at bats

atawa · May 21, 2003, 17:54

So who is making Deity first, you or Rah?

WTF?

I spose it's like Aussies talking cricket...

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 18:02

Atawa, ming will make Double Deity before either of us.....

probably me, rah is a mod after all

I don't have to worry about it.

atawa · May 21, 2003, 18:22

What is rounders?

rah · May 21, 2003, 18:31

, yes you don't have to worry.

I'm sure War will make it before me. He has put considerable effort into staying in front of me.

DrSpike · May 21, 2003, 19:27

At this rate both War and Rah will be amongst the next Deities.

Somehow you know they'll have the staying power, which I am not sure is true of most of the 20 post a day demogamers who could feasibly beat them there.

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 20:48

just another term for a variation of baseball....though rounders has more than one meaning..depending on the sport

War4ever · May 21, 2003, 23:23

ok clemens won 299 tonite, goes for 300 in the bronx against my sox, and oh yeah....

clemens pitches in wrigley on SATURDAY..its in two threads so you can't miss it
