The Schaumburg Flyers!!!!!!!!

I use to have RC kit car races in that parking lot.

Yeah, and the games are really fun to go to although I haven't been to one in a few years. Not sure if they are still drawing many fans but it used to sell out a lot when I went.

Andruw Jones sucks. The Dodgers have proven to have a knack for picking up CFs who suck.

(and proceeded to give them way too much money)

I remember being excited when we got Pierre... :nonono:

Yeah thats BS. My girl was like that too few nights ago. I try to watch the game and shes just starting the dumbest arguements and of course i just ignore her which makes her more mad and then she starts dissing baseball and saying it's boring... like wtf. That's why i really love Sat and Sun afternoon games most, cuz my gf works 1-8pm each sat and sun so i can come home from work, sit, relax, grill out and drink a few beers with the guys and watch the cubs!

I about vomited when I read a report that Star Jones is dating Dwayne Wade. I dont care how unattractive you may be, if you are a millionaire you find yourself a nice superficial hottie. The only 20 yr older black women he should be dating is Oprah.

Wow whoever Mrs. ex-Dwayne Wade is, is one lucky SOB!

...and Star Jones! C'mon DWade is a stud he could date anybody.

Of course they say you date people that resemble your parents, and DWade is a momma's boy.

^ dont konw what that meant. :-?

Yeah I just knocked out the first, pretty sure I aced it. This one Im taking in about an hour is redic, 80 question film final, are you kidding me? I thought intro to film was suppose to be an easy class, should have taken intro to jazz flute or something like that.

Anyway thanks bro, Im only bummed about the game because its on FSN rcky mtn and I can actually watch it. Oh well maybe I will get the end of it.

Same here for my paid league.
My team has done amazing so far especially on the hitting end.

C: Soto
1B: Atkins
2B: Cano
SS: Furcal
3B: A Rod
OF: Manny
OF: Justin Upton
OF: Granderson
Util: James Loney
Bench: Melky Cabrera
Bench: Evan Longoria
Bench: Ryan Garko

P: Jake Peavy
P: Roy Oswalt
P: Tim Lincecum
P: Ted Lilly (Added after he was dropped after his 0-3 start :D )
P: Francisco Liriano
P: Oliver Perez
P: Hiroki Kuroda
RP: Chad Cordero
RP: Chad Qualls
DL: Joe Borowski (Only keeping him to get an extra spot)

I figured my pitching would lead me to the playoffs this year but instead, I have one of the top hitting teams in my league. One thing you may notice is I am using the John Paxson method with my team, I am mostly taking players from winning teams and this strategy has worked this year.

Not only does that strategy work, but in the playoffs, most of the guys you end up keeping will produce. Of course you'll have your Soriano's of the team that dissappear during crunch times, but the majority of big players on a good team show up.
