munson hates temple and loves phoenixville

shocker

[Rome]

Yes Rome, everyone here uses the correct form of then/than every time. I must be st00pid or sumthin!

Pheonixville is okay for just being a small little town.

Not everyone brags about being a college student, mocks someone who actually graduated, then mistakenly uses "then" instead of "than" twice in two straight sentences.

And you misspelled Phoenixville as well.  Whether or not that was intentional is anyone's guess.

hahahaha.  i'd farging love to have that hanging in my study. 

[ice grillin you]

thats actually the press box wall...they just put a frame around the mark

[Sgt PSN]

oh, i didn't realize they left it in tact.  in that case, i want to cut it out of the wall and hang it in my study. 

[Munson]

munson hates temple and loves phoenixville

shocker

Yes thats what i said, I love it. ITS THE BEST TOWN EVER.


Romey if you're that concerned with my grammar, you can search through my posts and find that I generally use it correctly. But I know you don't care as much as you're insisting you do, so go drown in the Gulf please.

I wish I could brush my teeth with it.

You know what's great about the Polanco/Victorino arguement? The fact that it wouldn't be an argument if Rollins were just batting in the 6/7 slot where he belongs.

[smeags]

You're speaking in strictly average and OBP. Having a smart hitter behind him is going to move him over more often into scoring position for the 3 and 4 slots, and give him better protection when he's stealing.


Go farg yourself, anal wart.

exibit "a" on your lack of baseball knowledge.

are you saying that this blurb

Scouting reports detailing a blazing fastball preceded Phillippe Aumont to the Phillies. Tuesday, Aumont showed off that fastball -- and impressive tailing action -- in a bullpen session witnessed by pitching coach Rich Dubee, Amaro and several other team officials.

Aumont, a 6-foot-7 right-hander, is the most highly touted of the three prospects acquired from Seattle in the controversial trade for Cliff Lee. He's well aware of the impression made by Lee during only three months with the Phillies, but in time, he' hoping to forge a legacy all his own.

isn't entirely accurate and the phils were trying to put a positive spin on one of the dumbest trades ever? 

[mpmcgraw]

No, he's a pretty highly touted prospect.  He has ridiculous upside, but he could also turn out to be a late inning reliever.  Unless he gets hurt he's a lock to be a ML player though imo.

hes "pretty" highly touted but has a "ridiculous" upside

NO

jason heyward has a ridiculous upside...strasberg has a ridiculous upside...drabek doesnt even have a ridiculous upside and hes a clear cut better prospect than aumont...aumont is a very good prospect....nothing less nothing more


that being said i dont put much on what happened last night altho on the surface it was a pretty bad train wreck
