Talk Zone / Revenue Sharing
« on: December 01, 2016, 08:23:17 am »
What does the bullet below from the new CBA mean?

'Oakland's revenue-sharing funds will be cut to 75 percent next year, 50 percent in 2018, 25 percent in 2019 and then phased out.
'

Why is Oakland singled out?

Beer and Queso / Go-To Sports Page
« on: February 02, 2014, 09:13:13 am »
I've pretty much had it with ESPN.  From their announcers and so-called political correctness to their obvious favoritism of certain sports, I can't bear to keep using their site.  I've been using them for so long, I'm use to their layout, which seems maneuverable enough if you can find anything worth reading.  I've used them as a home page for probably ten years, and now even the home page plays videos automatically.  Fox Sports page looks hard to maneuver and strange, but it could just be today for the Superbowl.  Are there any sites that are straight forward and contain stories (reporting) that are relevant to the sports world left?   Are there any sites worthy of being a home page?  What do you use and why?

Is there Belhaven available in bottles anywhere in Austin?  The distributor for Texas is Ben E Keith in Austin and I can't find it in SA.

Talk Zone / Dipping Dirt
« on: October 15, 2008, 08:04:41 pm »
Was there a player that dipped dirt?  I have a running argument with a cousin who says there was; I don't know.  Seems plausible for a Birdman or someone equivalent, but I can't find any proof.

Talk Zone / Biggio 'Look-a-like'
« on: May 06, 2008, 07:49:13 am »
Did anybody catch the Tigers-RedSox game last night?  Watching Dustin Pedroia bat reminded me of Biggio almost to a tee.  His stance, leg kick, swing, alomost everything.  He also flails at sliders in the dirt.  Very uncanny.

Beer and Queso / Friday Beer Thread
« on: April 05, 2008, 08:50:29 pm »
I drank some beer today.  It was good.  Some was from Russia (Baltika #6, a Porter).  Some was from Shiner (Helles 99).  Both were excellent and I intend on partaking heavily again. 


Sorry I'm late....
It is Friday isn't it???

There's a new sheriff in town; and his name is Taxman.

Talk Zone / Houstonians - Need a little help please
« on: May 25, 2007, 10:19:14 am »
I have never been to MMP and am taking my son and father-in-law to the game on June 1st.  I don't know Houston well enough to attempt a downtown drive (at least with them in tow, so I am wondering about the best place to sit (view-wise), and if there are 'shuttles' or 'park and rides' from anywhere in South Houston as I will be staying off of Nasa Rd.  Thanks for any help.

Talk Zone / Pence on XM
« on: March 16, 2007, 09:28:15 am »
Pence was interviewed by 'Nightrain' Lane last night about 7:45 on XM.  He is resigned of the fact that he will most likely start the season in AAA.  He stated that the game he went 0 for 2, that Garner said he 'may never play again', as a joke.  Asked about the biggest jokesters on the team; Berkman (who knew), Lamb, and OP.  He said Lamb is the funniest to him.  Said the entire team really helps him prepare and answers his questions as needed.  Not to much hazing as of yet.  His favorite player from the Astros growing up is was Jeff Bagwell.  He mentioned that he chokes up on the bat because it feels more comfortable to him.  Rest of the questions/answers were lame and personal.

I've heard of 'pitch-tipping' and even cow-tipping, but can someone (Limey) please explain this?

Saw Garner, Lee, Alex Trevino, and Fernando Nieve at the signing table yesterday in San Antonio.  Carlos looked pretty good as far as playing weight.  Maybe 250 people were waiting for autographs, with more on the way I suppose.

 Salt Lake Tribune

This topic was discussed in SI (Rick Reilly) and on XM yesterday with Dibble/Kennedy.  What do you do if you are the manager?  Hits close to home from the managing standpoint for some here I suppose.
