I don't listen to the commentators I put the game on mute. Mostly they distract from the game.

I don't know about that, but Sutton was definitely mediocre. I'd rather have Schulte and Grace on the television broadcast, and have Sutton with Digger on the radio. It's not a big deal though, i'll live.

Hey man, I'm not trying to copy your sig. I usually included the Suns record and any other Arizona sports team in my sig.

Anywayz, BorisDiaw are you planning to go to any diamondbacks games this season.

Probably the home opener against the Reds. My best friend is a d-backs fan, but he likes the Cincinatti Reds too, so we usually go every season whenever the D-backs play the Reds.

I'm so pumped up about this season. I cant wait to see Randy Johnson pitch and see weather he can still be a dominant pitcher with us.

We'll see. I just hope we don't do what the Cardinals did, get all hyped, and then fail.

Too bad the game tomorrow is during the Suns game. I'll probably watch the DBacks over the Suns-Grizz anyways, just because it will probably be a blow-out.
Then Wednesday's game is at noon. :(. I'll miss that game more then likely, or catch the ninth inning.
And to make things worse, I won't be able to see the Suns-Spurs game on Thursday...

It would take about 90-95 games to make the playoffs. So I'm hoping we finish 95-69 and finally make the playoffs :)

Yes, but hopefully this doesn't occur during the playoffs though, if it does, i'll definitely be calling in sick. :lol:

lol thats what I did couple years ago when the Suns played the Grizzlies in the first round playoffs. It was dam worth it too, I just cant stand missing the suns games, wether its a regular season game or the playoffs. I've only missed like 2-3 games this season, but they were against sh*tty teams.

I've only missed 2 games, and that was recently both Denver games, I hate missing them too, you don't know how pissed off I am about missing Thursday's game. It really has ruined my week..no joke.


Anyways, Yo, i'm out for tonight..later.

GO SUNS & DBACKS!

The Rocks need to bounce back tonight. Livan generally has a tough time at Coors (who doesn't?). Colorado's middle of the order needs to be a lot better than they were yesterday if this team is going to win. I'm excited to see Francis. Good luck, gents.

The Rockies 3-7 hitters went a 7 for 23 with 3 RBIs 2 walks and 2 runs scored Hawpe and Matsui both had a 2 out RBI hits. What the Rockies need to do is limit their errors they had 2 key throwing errors that resulted in runners being able take extra bases and get into scoring postion.

Personally I hope you don't learn from your mistakes the DBacks could use some early breaks to get the young kids confidence up, so when they do hit a slump they will have the confidence to know that this is a long year and they are just too good to stay down for too long.

Atkins/Helton/Holliday (3-4-5) went 2 for 14. Atkins and Holliday were the best hitters on the team last year, and each went 0-5. I'm pretty sure that constitutes struggling in the middle of the order. Hawpe hit the ball well in the 6 spot, but Tulowitski and Iannetta were the pleasant surprises in the 7-8 spots.

If you narrow any sample you can twist the results to your liking. I took 5 hitters you took 3. I couldn't find any stats but watching the game both Atkins and Holliday took Webb to 6 or 7 pitches each in most of their ABs. Thats just bad luck when you see that many pitches generally the edge goes to the hitter.
