This is third time that TLR has had a team

Larry Walker tried 3 RBIs, only 2 LOB and hit .357 for the series.When you get like half your series RBIs from Matheny, Womack and Taguchi, this is NOT good…Running or lack of it Sanders missing a base.Walker trying to score on a ball to replica Cartier w10125u2 watch shallow left in which even Biggio could have thrown him out did he do this?because Pujols was, for some odd reason going to third? Suppan I didn't believe what I just saw even a GIRL (you know- throws like, hits like) knows to go home on a ground ball hit to right and you don't need an effing coach to tell you that.

Etc.Managing wuzzat? This is third time that TLR has had a team in the WS that sank like a stone I remember the 1990 series with the Reds.This year, it's the third vorst, same as the first…I STILL have not decided who to give the Most Valueless Player replica Cartier w6600121 watch award to….Cards Fans, I'm so sorry.It's hard to enjoy a ball game when your team doesn't show up to play…Thank y'all for all the emails about Carlos Beltran.I went and re-read all the Houston Chronicle columns mentioning him.Now keeping in mind that the local writers basically do NOT criticize the team, the players or the moves the manager makes, I got the following:1)

The numbers tossed around regarding contracts were 105 mill 6 years before the comeback and 120 mill 7 years after (Bagwell money.)2) Carlos was quoted as saying that he didn't want to sign if they didn't re-sign Berkman, Oswalt and (believe it or not) Adam Everett (that boy has an replica Cartier w3019351 watch glove and is a very good ballplayer not all shortstops are HR hitters, ya know…) Who can blame him? No point in being a straw if there ain't no drink to stir.Right, Reggie?3) I had forgotten this, but the team refused to consider signing Berkman to a long term contract this spring, his second arb year.That was mucho stupido.He has had 4 years of excellence, in the top 10 of every offensive category for 4 years running and was MVP runner up in 2001.

Red Sox Nation is that their fans are hard-core

It's the day after the last day of the world series.(I had planned to title this series “It's the end of the world as we know it” but ESPN beat me to it…) Pretty soon, it will sink in 138 days until Opening Day.I can imagine the hysterical bedlam that replica Cartier w10110t2 watch must exist in Red Sox Nation.One interesting thing?I saw Fox and ESPN cameras panned the crowds in Boston and a sizeable number of the Sox fans were children, teens and young adults.I keep reading that baseball does not “appeal to the young” and is dying, blah, blah, blah.Not in Boston, fer sher.

The great thing about Red Sox Nation is that their fans are hard-core thru horrible years as well as good.Here in Stro Land, this year, a lot of people caught Astro fever and I hope that our new fans will become as addicted and hard core as Sox fans.I can imagine the humiliated disgust that must exist in Cardinals Nation.This nation has a fan base as hard-core and large as the RedSox, just less, uh, noisy, yeah, noisy.I had said to David Pinto that this replica Cartier w3107255 watch team lost because it didn't do the “little things” (pitching, hitting, running.)Shall I start the autopsy on the Cardinal Corpse?1) pitching well, let me tell you who did NOT suck- Al Reyes 1.1 IP, NO inherited runners scored- Izzy 2 IP inherited 2 runners with no outs, walked one and stranded them all.- Ray King 1.1 IP, no inherited runners scored.

no runs.- middle suck Danny Haren, who let 2 inherited runners score, but then pitched an additional 4 innings with no runs.Starters didn't throw strikes much.When they did, they were in the middle of the plate.And that's being kind.VERY kind.-Williams 2.1 IP 7 ER (Haren let 2 of the inherited runners score) replica Cartier w62005v1 watch (pitcher x 3) 121p -58s 63b (don't think that he did well sox stranded 11 runners left bases loaded twice)Hitting (like, WHAT hitting?) Rolen was ofer the series with an RBI on a sac fly.Pujols hit .333, but didn't have a single RBI because he left 6 RISP.Edmonds was 1 fer the series with a bunt single and NO RBIs.

they're gonna trade Sammy and his 35 mill contract

My daddy told me many times that people believe what they hear and hear what they believe.Now I, personally, don't always believe what I hear.For example, just the past 3 or 4 days I've heard:1) Carlos Beltran is going to the Yankees, 10 years, 20 mill replica Cartier we10456h watch year and they're gonna get Glaus, move Arod to SS, Jeter to 2nd, trade Brown to the (get this) Braves (like they've just fallen offn a turnip truck) for their 2 top pitching prospects and sign Milton and Pavano.Oh.And trade Giambi for prospects so Bernie can DH.I'm still laughing.2) Carlos Beltran to the Cubs, but he'll hafta play left.

Or right, cuz they're gonna trade Sammy and his 35 mill contract to the Mets for Cliff Floyd and his 13 mill contract.I'd laugh, but I feel too sorry for the Met fans.Like Carlos really wants to be with crazy Dusty Baker and his band of Whiners.Right.Lookin forward to bein pals with Jay Mariotti.Uh-hunh.3) Carlos Beltran to the Mariners, who don't have a good answer at 1st, SS, 3rd and lack at least 3 good starting pitchers and a bullpen (except Rafael Soriano.) Yeah, sure.4) Carlos Beltran to the Mets.Like Wilpon would do something that makes sense. replica Cartier w6600221 watch) Carlos Beltran to the Angels who will move Anderson back to left and keep Erstad at first and DH Salmon.

They definitely need a few more pitchers, but this actually hurts when I try to laugh.Anyway, Jose Guillen will be tossed into the rubbish bin (hey, maybe Phil can keep his butt in line and the dude can field and hit…)ButIda like hearing any of this, so I disbelieve it all.-Tell me something good…….-Tell me that I'll like it…… yeahThis replica Cartier w69008z3 watch afternoon, my brother, who works with a Spanish guy who said that he heard from his brother who has a friend in Puerto Rico who told him that someone heard that Carlos Beltran said on a local radio interview that he wants to stay with the Astros.(And of course it's true cuz men don't NEVAH gossip.)-What he got to give will sure nuff do us good…Now THAT I believe…..

Arroyo's glove but the umps get together and make the right

Tripleheaders, if your thumb holds up.Plenty of evidence of Substance Use in this league (beer.) I can tell you from watching the users that that particular substance is NOT performance enhancing.Sometimes, pitchers have to get a little more replica Cartier w20099c4 watch tired for their pitches to be effective.So I'm starting to cruise and next thing I know, Brotherman's saying to Husband hey, man, Baby Sister's whuppin your ass, hehhehheh.So I sez to Brotherman, well, why don't YOU see if you can do any better.

Brotherman struttin, yeah, full of confidence.Brother man, he a Proven Veteran and he ain't real too worried about the Rookie we all know them skinny, slightly built pitchers caint last.But by now, I'm tired enough that I can't really get much movement on the ball and the cutter's cuttin only a little to the right.Brother man leading going into extra replica Cartier wf9003y8 watch innings.Last pitch, perfect slider, strike one.Not quite enough, I've lost.BUT wait turns out, if you get a strike in the bottom of the 10th, you get to try for another strike Brotherman “forgets” to tell me dirty play like A-Rod

-slappin the ball outta Arroyo's glove but the umps get together and make the right call.Brotherman is out and I am up.And I nail another strike.And I get another chance for strike 3 all I need is 3 runs to beat Brotherman.HAH! Just replica Cartier w6700155 watch call me David Ortiz sometimes a bloop'll do ya.This HAS been the year of the comeback win in extra innings.There IS something special about the underdog beating the odds.Well, ain't no rainin on my parade.Take that, Boston.Wait until next year…..

four passes for 79 yards and one touchdown in a loss to the Raiders

this season.Broncos WR Brandon Lloyd caught four passes for 79 yards and one touchdown in a loss to the Raiders.He now has over 1200 yards and 10 touchdowns in 14 games this season.Chiefs RB Thomas Jones ran the ball 22 times for 62 yards and one Bvlgari BB38SLDCH Men's watch touchdown in a victory of the Rams.He went over 10,000 yards rushing in his career.Saints DE Alex Brown had four tackles in a loss to the Ravens.Titans WR Justin Gage caught one pass for a touchdown in a win over the Texans.Read the full original article…

I think that when we start talking about candidates for the Hobey Baker Matt Frattin’s name has to be in the mix, look that the year Frattin is having (17g 8a 25pts), I would say that Frattin has been a man among boys this season.Immediately you Bvlgari BB38SLDCH will hear about Frattin’s checkered past, I think that’s fair, however, I think the article written by Brad Elliot Schlossman this past weekend, The Road to Redemption is the first step in the right direction because the article brings to light some information that could help sway the committee.

I the reason I think the committee can be swayed is that Matt Frattin could have taken the easy route that other players have and just signed a professional but instead he decided to get his act together and deal with his personal issues and he didn't avoid Bvlgari BB38SLDCH watch them but met them head on.The fact that the University of North Dakota pulled Frattin’s scholarship and Matt Frattin had to pay his own way is even more impressive to me,
