dieselman44 Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 [quote name='Revolution #9' post='301060' date='Jul 25 2006, 11:05 PM']Roger upgraded the clubhouse for himself for when he was playing there. And buying people dinner does not make you a nice guy. It's not like he's hurting for money. It's a meaningless gesture for publicity for himself. That's all Roger cares about--being feted and showered with accolades. Do I care about that? No. He's a Drama Queen, we all know that. He has pitched very well since coming back. The problem is that the Astros are, quite simply, abysmal this season. I don't know what caused it, but there's only 2 or 3 guys on the staff earning their paychecks. Phil Garner has been making some incomprehensible moves lately. The astros have made a couple of second half miracle runs the last 2 seasons. It's almost as though they've come to expect it and as a result are not playing with urgency. If they don't right the ship pretty soon, they will miss out. It's really sad that they aren't already eliminated from contention given how poorly they've played.[/quote] Why would he buy all that shit for one start? Do you know Roger? I just hate it when ppl draw conclusions about athletes and they have never met them at all. good win by the redlegs and anybody know anything about eddie?

Actium Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Yes, I know Roger. He lives down the block from me and we've played golf a few times. He lost but won't pay up. /lies You said you hate it when people draw conclusions about athletes and don't know them at all. Well, you've concluded that Roger is a good guy. Do you know him? Or is it only improper to draw conclusions when they run counter to your own intuitions? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just get tried of ppl bashing athletes(ex. griffey(and his so called ego)), when they dont know anything about the guy except he wears number 3 and plays for the reds. But obviously you know Roger on a personal level therefore you know more about him then i do, which makes me take your input more serious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But i didnt like them putting a young guy like that in a situation like that tho. I hope Guardado is hurt cuz i dont see a fuckin reason why we would go with Coffey in that situation instead of Harang or Guardado.

So ya i hoped he was hurt and he had stiffness and in an odd way that makes me happy. He should be fine soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JBandJoeyV Posted July 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 Cards win 1-0 against the rockies, we just cant seem to gain any ground in this race no matter how well we do...then again if we can keep it at around 3 or 4 games out and take 5 of 7 from them when we play them 7 times in like 11 days, then we have a decent shot at the division...

The only way he was going back out there is if we were up by 4 runs or so. And he probably would have been pulled at 120 pitches to be safe.

Guest bengalrick Posted July 26, 2006 Report Share Posted July 26, 2006 [quote name='TheChosenOne' post='301049' date='Jul 25 2006, 10:59 PM']I guess, but like Revolution #9 said, when practically everyone other than Clemens on their team plays like crap, it's not all that great. But any win is a good win. [/quote] well, they got our ace, so that is probably the case in alot of situations... people don't want to pitch joe mayes against clemmons... they make sure to bring in their workhorse... and w/out berkman in there, the stros can't hit for shit...
