I'm glad I'm not the only one that had no idea who that reliever was. -- nm - spamlet Jul 11, 14:37 1
- I knew the name, but had to see what team and what his #'s were that I missed. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 14:37
note on Pujols, he usually has one really hot month, and that makes his stats look better than they are. - groiny Jul 11, 14:37
I shall go to the pizzeria tonight for dinner. -- nm - CQ Jul 11, 14:35 8
- Wife and kids back? -- nm - amoxy Jul 11, 14:44 1
  - I'm heading up tomorrow for the weekend. -- nm - CQ Jul 11, 15:02

  - worse - charlie Jul 11, 15:00
No Puig, then I ain't watching. The NFL and NBA would never get caught with a young star that's all the talk out of their all star game. - Bacon Jul 11, 14:34 34
- Never underestimate the voting power of an entire country, especially when that country has only one team. -- nm - J-Nexus Jul 11, 15:27
- you really should think before you post. stephen curry wasnt an allstar in the nba - tRuMaN Jul 11, 14:42 6
  - He was not being talked about as much as Puig. So you are wrong there. - Bacon Jul 11, 14:45 5
    - umm, yes, yes he was. - tRuMaN Jul 11, 14:45 4
      - No, he really wasn't. Not until the playoffs for like 2 weeks - Will Hunting Jul 11, 15:53
      - I watch the sports shows, I listen to sports radio all day. He was not being talked about like Puig. Wrong Wrong WRong -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:46 2
        
        it wouldnt matter if i had facts, you wont listen anyways. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 11, 14:46 1
        
        Your example is bad. My initial post is bad. -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:48
- Nobody watches the NFL all-star game (the Pro Bowl). It's a complete joke. -- nm - pmb Jul 11, 14:42 9
  - I think it gets decent ratings. -- nm - mara Jul 11, 14:44 8
    - I'd be fairly surprised if they're very good. They've discussed just givin it up for a while because of poor attendance and presumably ratings. -- nm - pmb Jul 11, 14:49 5
      - they actually have been pretty good, relatively, at least in recent years. lower than regular games, but still top 50ish (iirc) for sports broadcasts - b. Jul 11, 14:51
      - I don't know about "very good," but apparently good enough. -- (link) - mara Jul 11, 14:50 2
        
        Interesting. I'm surprised, but the numbers are still going the wrong direction. -- nm - pmb Jul 11, 14:57
        
        It's amazing how it got higher ratings that the NBA and MLB All Star Games. That surprises me - Bacon Jul 11, 14:55
      - It actually got a good rating this year. I was surprised -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:50
    - I have never in my life watched one. nm -- nm - groiny Jul 11, 14:45 1
      - I have watched parts of it, but never the whole thing -- nm - amoxy Jul 11, 14:46
- How many Pro Bowls did Tebow make? - David Jul 11, 14:36 15
  - To be fair, he might have made 3 given how little people care (including the actual players) -- nm - Will Hunting Jul 11, 14:41
  - Add player that is good at playing. -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:37 13
    - Frenchy hit .400 his first month in the bigs. - David Jul 11, 14:39 11
      - and he will again if he makes it onto the giants roster, right? right??? ;p -- nm - b. Jul 11, 14:48 4
        
        Only if idiots throw him strikes...which happens too often. -- nm - David Jul 11, 14:50
        
        Right now, I would rather see some youngsters come up. I think this season is done -- nm - amoxy Jul 11, 14:49 2
        
        What do we do with Lincecum? What the hell happened? -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:51 1
        
        I watched him implode on my FBB team. It was remarkable. - Mel Profit Jul 11, 14:52
      - Chris. Shelton. -- nm - Mel Profit Jul 11, 14:46
      - Trolling is posting something to get a reaction. I seriously feel the way I do. I was only going to watch to see Puig come up late in the game and - Bacon Jul 11, 14:40 4
        
        your last line says it all, again. you clearly have not paid attention to much beyond last month's headlines. - b. Jul 11, 14:47 3
        
        Yes, the players that got in ST Baseball fans had to look their names up. So it just ain't me -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:49 2
        
        Not their names, just the Jays reliever. I'm confident we all knew who Freeman is. - the wrong element, bad guy Jul 11, 14:53
        
        oh, taking a different approach now. I'll join the done folks. -- nm - b. Jul 11, 14:53
    - Because I guess Aaron Hernandez is all the talk right now as well. You know what I mean -- nm - Bacon Jul 11, 14:38
i choo-choo-oose you. -- nm - tRuMaN Jul 11, 14:34
