I mean, about the Cy Young award winners. But I want Randy to win. I mean he started the all star game!! I want him 2 win. So I'll have mt illusions until someone else wins. I thought that Neagle had the best ERA. That isn't right? And I also thought that the fav. was Maddux. Oh, well, I guess I'm a little gullible huh?

We had I think a seven 2 lead, the other team was gaining (bullpen sucked then, It's a little better now.) and all he had to do to get out of the inning was throw a routine ground ball to first. I was embarassed 4 him! But it wasn't all him. We needed the bull pen help. I don't agree with the Cruz trade, but I guess it worked out o.k. Jeter, I think is ahead of Alex in almost all catagories except stolen bases, doubles, and I think that's it. I don't know about homers.

He had a scholarship to Texas, and his father and advisor thought he should get a deal like the kid signed by the Diamondbacks. That's why most teams passed on him in the draft. He decided to take the Orioles' offer and play pro baseball. --- Msged/2 4.10 * Origin: Nerve Center - Source of the SPINAL_INJURY echo!

I know the old stadium in Cleveland was *terrible* but I can't see a team pulling up stakes and moving half cross country when games are sold out years in advance. I just don't understand those kinds of moves. This new mentality of team owners holding city governments hostage doesn't make sense to me. It seems to me that the one thing being forgotten here is the loyality of the fan. Him or her who go out and support these teams with their hard earned money. The fans are the last ones to be thought about.
