I just found out there will be an icing on the cake moment to the Mo Rivera traveling sideshow. That being, when the Astros get their chance to gift him, Roger Clemens will be the one doing the giving.

I wonder if anyone remembered that Ozzie Smith was with the Padres


People will, as long as they keep replaying his beyond awesome, bare-handed grab that has been a highlight staple for 30 odd years.

Speaking of send-offs, I see the Rockies have at least 1 thing in store for the retiring Todd Helton.

As you can hopefully see, for the last home game, they have cut and enormous 17 in the grass at Coors. I can only hope this will not be the only thing they do for their first really homegrown player and star.

speaking of grass - do they sell grass at the Coors concession stands? I bet attendance would go up.

"If they do this, I will come............."

I did hear about there being a pro-pot billboard just outside the Broncos stadium for their first game, so, it's a start.......

What a season. When the season began we were all grousing on CBS and the Sox were looking at hopefully being .500.

What Randy Jones accomplishment is he best known for? It's a unique one.

The only rhyme or reason I can offer, and it's not much.

Playoff implications.

That and the whole doing it for the "bestest baseball town evah!!!"

having the best name, outside of Randy Bush, for the best name that sounds like a diseased genital?

The only Cy winner with a career losing record? Winning 20 after losing 20 the previous year?

be my guess.

It's amazing that the Padres retired a guy's number that had a losing record

did you change your diaper after the red sox clinched the division?

did sportshub convince you that we need to stay ahead of the A's?

no diaper, I'm sending you back the box of Depends

COD

dont care much about best record

rather face detroit than the Rays

not sure who I'd rather face between detroit and oakland

Why? Do the Rays have the Sox number somehow? I ask, as after looking at some w/l info, it seems like the Rays would be a slightly easier opponent.

Another creep that hates SportsHoopla and spends all his time reviling the shit out of us with a bunch of other SportsHoopla rejects but just can't seem to stop trying to sneek in. Puzzling.

huskersrule seems to have multiple personalities using huskersrule and bone3421 and bone3422 sharing the same computer. No soup for you! and you! and you!

david price twice in one series?

no thank you

Verlander hasnt been that good this season and Sox beat Scherzer last time he faced them

Sox generally struggle more against power lefties.....and TB has two

Then again, Sox have done well vs. TB this year

just a preference
