Not in the least bit

IMO if you want homefield advantage determined by something during the season, give it to the league with the best overall winning percentage in IL play.

I also don’t think a Wild Card team should EVER get home field advantage over a team that won its division.

but that's largely because

they have at least 48 extra home games per year,

needs to shut his big fat trap about kazmir’s pitch limit.

you know, i'd rather not read

about the guys bowel problems or how many names he can drop in a column.

he is epitome of what is wrong with the NFL.

but he gives good info

i can’t recall a time he reported something and it wasn’t accurate

by Matty I on Jul 16, 2008 1:29 AM EDT to parent up   0 recs

i cant stand when he talks aobut travel or his favorite coffee place

but his football info makes him a must read

if good info is spewing out random crap a brain dead monkey could figure out

then yes, he gives good info

but just like the NFL he thinks too much of himself & doesn’t care about the product, he only cares about how good he looks.

He's good

When Gammons was seriously ill last season, Rosenthal did an excellent job filling the void—getting the hot scoops n’ all.

Hard to argue with

Joe Posnanski, though. Is he considered national?

In all fairness

Uggla does strike out 1/3 of the time in the regular season, too.

thank god that ken knows how to text message

where would we be without that knowledge?

Make the managers pitch the 16th inning?

They say that it's never too late, but you don't get any younger...

if he was

Than this game probably would be over with. Would of probably made the plays that Uggla booted

None of the plays Uggla booted cost the NL a win

ah, but miles would have slapped a hit

that would have given the NL the advantage in, like, the 10th.

Clint Hurdle, you obviously still underestime miles even after trading him years ago.

(how awesome would it have been if hurdle picked Miles over uggla? And would any of us have defended it?)

Nothing would piss me off like a tie. Go to a HR derby

Wouldn't the AL have to forfeit?

If they’re the ones who run out of players?

I don't think that's allowed with the DH

Don't you just give up the DH for the rest of the game?

What do you guys think

If you are not rested enough to pitch in the All Star game than you should not be here?

for the same effect, the irish gods invented jameson.
