    Make him walk so he knows how the other teams batters feel.

    I have used this before, but for anyone that has played unlimited arc softball, facing Manny must be the same thing. Just sit back and let him throw his junk stuff for balls until he is forced to use his meat pitch for a strike and drill it.

    An Ace is like porn, you know it when you see it.

    The report reminds me of LaPorta. Above average power hitter that is an average outfielder.

    The ratings are higher because it gets a huge kiss from Espn/ABC. You can t compare it to minor leagues since most players on minor league teams are paid by the parent club. Here is a quote I found from 2007 WNBA article "The NBA supports the WNBA logistically and financially,reportedly pumping in $12 million a year. Although NBACommissioner David Stern said a year ago the WNBA might makea small profit this season, WNBA President Donna Orender said her league is "very close" to breaking even but not there." So it takes 12 mil from the NBA just to get the league close to making a profit. Its a dead league that is being propped up. And you cannot compare it to Hockey. I would venture to guess that Hockey would get higher rating if it got a push from ESPN again like the WNBA gets.

    Think Marlins games. Again, if it wasnt for the NBA burning money on the league it would have gone belly up a long time ago. I have heard that from several different analysts and I think even ESPN did a Outside the Lines on it. Back to scholarships. Depending on the sport, being a scholarship athlete is only about 1% fun. Football demands the most time from its players. Beyond going to class lets say 3 hrs a day, another 8-10 is spent doing football related activities including practice, film, workouts and other team related duties. The last couple hours in the day are there for meals and study. In the offseason it the committment time goes down by a couple hours a day but it is still very time consuming. Another thing people need to remember is that all scholarships are paid for by the boosters of the Athletic department(at least at UW). No school money is used to pay for the scholarships. In essence, the school and athletic departments are two seperate entities.

    Basically, if it wouldnt cause such a PR nightmare the NBA would have shut it down a long time ago. While that 1.9 mil may cover salaries, I would venture to bet that operating costs are 5x that. If the NBA didnt suppliment those owners with covering the loses there wouldnt be any owners. In fact some of the teams are owned by the owners of the NBA team in that city. Getting back on course, its a shame that the person who was in control and with out a doubt knew what was going on is going to skate away to the riches of UK with no ramifications.

    And with all of those things you mentioned Joe, the league hemorrhages money. If it werent for David Stern and the NBA, the WNBA would have gone out of business 2 years after it was started.

    I fine with him in there. The problem I have is that you have to recognize that he doesnt have it and have someone ready.
  10. jwill535
    why do you not bunt with that does nothing but his grounders?
  11. jwill535
    Hopefully Hanson turns out to be the same as all the other recent Braves "cant miss pitching prospects".
  12. jwill535
    I never understood why most universities cannot have a Athletic degree path that teaches kids who think they are going to the pros how to handle finances, and other buisness related courses that would pertain to a pro athlete. Heck you can go to the UW for music, dance or theater, why cant you go for athletics?
  13. jwill535
    And Hart shows why he is the master of striking out on pitches right down the middle.
  14. jwill535
    Then #22 would be reserved for CF's who cant hit. Bobo was right, so frustrating.
  15. jwill535
    Am I the only one that wishes they still had Duffy instead of Gerut? At least Duffy made an attempt at taking pitches and working a count.
  16. jwill535
    They had to test the grittiness and gamer quotiant of Catalanotto before they gave him Joe Dillons number.
  17. jwill535
    A pitcher getting shelled - not a reason to boo, the effort is there Soriano kicking a ball into the corner, walking to it, picking it up, sighing then throwing the ball in - every right to boo
  18. jwill535
    so much for the best bullpen ERA in the NL.
  19. jwill535
    Azek and Timbertech are far and away better then Trex mainly due to their ridgedness(best way I can explain it). I sell all three products and you put the three together and you will see the difference.
  20. jwill535
    Corey Hart strikes out on more pitches right down the middle then any player, minus a pitcher, I have ever seen.
  21. jwill535
    To be fair they shot a standard breast plate with a era standard pistol and it just dented the breast plate.
  22. jwill535
    Why is it every time they are on national TV the offense looks pathetic?
  23. jwill535
    Bill Hall is the girl you dump and then continue to hook up with and after you do feel worse and wonder why the heck you did. Then a month later you see her and think about all the "good" stuff she did and you repeat the process from before. If that doesnt work for you, just think of Hall's career as the definition of insanity. They keep putting him out there over and over hoping for different results but continue to get the same results.

    They explained the origin of ninjas as being peasant farmers who banded together to fight the oppression of the governmental led Samurais. Since they werent formally trained or had the access to weapons they were forced to come up with techniques that would equal the field against Samurais. Most of their weapons came from the tools they used as farmers.

    The biggest problem with the concept of the show is , other then the Gladiator, all the other warriors are pitted in a style that they wouldnt normally fight in. The variables that made those warriors successful arent incorporated into the fights.
