Here comes a out. I mean Freel.

I would have set tivo and went to the game....but maybe you broght some karma....thanks

Do you go to many games?

If so, how close to Jack do you get?

I go to a couple a year. Not close to Jack though. I sat 6 rows behind the Cavs bench a few years ago and saw Lebron up close- but normally mid to upper level mid court.

As far as going- it was just bad timing when I got the call. Had just walked in and wasn't ready for a quick turnaround. Regretted not giving an immediate yes though as normally Id never pass up free tix, much less club level sweets. So long as Kobe doesn't score 84 again though- I'm not worried. I'll be at a game when it counts.

And like I said- if the Os hold on- I really wont mind it.

Josh Hamilton is a beast and all, but I'm not 100% sold on his defensive abilities in centerfield.

Hamilton is what I think Bigbie could have been.

As an aside, Sportscenter just ran a poll asking who was the most surprising team to start the season and they listed like 6 different teams.

Guess who wasn't on the list?

He is the 6th worst defensive CFer in baseball at -13 according to the Fielding Bible...

In what world did you ever think Bigbie had that much natural ability?

I think Hamilton would make a good corner outfielder, but he's no centerfielder IMO.

That could be a good or bad thing I guess

Christ, its the rims guy again.

Well, his batting stance looked a lot like Chipper's. Does that count?

[tywright]

Anybody see DiceK's line tonight? He apparently isn't a 100%

[JTrea81]

Kinda too bad they have to pitch Sherrill here.

Most people expected us to start 5-2 I guess.

Nice rally-kill by Ryan "rally-kill" Freel btw.

Not being a damper, but the O's are always a suprise this time of year. If they are playing this way by July than I think you'll see the O's being noticed. Its like the boy crying wolf. The O's need to be competitive past June.
