Around SBN: GoldenBlogs Interview With Gary Tyrrell Bar-right-arrows



Game 103 Open Thread

Cardinals vs. Brewers

Looper vs. Sabathia

The next two games are of grave importance to the Cardinals. Even though the last couple of losses were gutwrenching, with a little luck and some solid play, we can come back and be right back where we were when this series started; in the Wild Card lead by a game. As it stands right now, we're behind the Brewers by a game in the Wild Card and the Cubs by two games for the NL Central. We need to win at least one of the next two games.

Let's Go Cardinals!!

the thing about aol radio

is you can listen to kmox anywhere. which is cool if you live in new york like me and miss sports open line

yeah....i looked at the blackberry curve

i switched over to apple computers a few years back….the operating system is just better than windows for what i do. I’ve been wanting the iphone since it came out last year, but couldn’t spend 400 or 500 on a phone…..200 is a different story

by hockeyno93 on Jul 23, 2008 8:26 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Anybody using Samsungs?

I am going to stick with Verizon and a Samsung is the best Verizon does, but I would like to know thoughts before I go out and drop 200 on one.

Really? LG is good?

I was sort of shying away from LG, but I really have no reason to be doing so.

by Egyptian on Jul 23, 2008 8:44 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

The old Chocolate is terrible

I have it right now. My plan ends on Saturday so I get an upgrade. I’m counting it down because it’s a terrible phone. I’ve had so many problems with it.

That having been said, every other LG phone I’ve had has been pretty sweet.

i have sprint service

but an LG phone. it’s works great and has everything you could possibly want out of a phone. it’s also very durable. i’ve dropped on concrete multiple times and not a scratch on it.

LG voyager is the one i would look at for verizon.

Cool, thanks.

I am going to give LG more of a look now.

keep on doing whatever it is you’re doing, cuz I don’t know how you do it.

a bunt.

I’m sending this to FJM.

Was that a Ludwick thing or a TLR thing?

seems like a TLR thing

Whoever just bought an iPhone, call Tony and ask him

why the team leader in HR, RBI, and slugging is bunting.

by BTown Birds fan on Jul 23, 2008 8:30 PM EDT   0 recs

at least the bunt worked I suppose

I’d hate it if he just popped it up in the air to the pitcher

my ass

i wanna see him drilled. like really bad.

by stlcardinalsfang on Jul 23, 2008 8:34 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

the pose

he stood and admired his home run, then looked into the cardinals dugout.

if it doesn’t bother the pitchers…why should it bother me.

not to mention

bill hall is batting a healthy .238 so he is a more useful out if anything

by 916baller on Jul 23, 2008 8:38 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

I hate Bill Hall.

Why is it that some players just absolutely kill us and then the rest of the time suck?

by Egyptian on Jul 23, 2008 8:40 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

because he killed us

two nights in a row. he probably thinks he did his part for the season and will take off he next sixty games…

by 916baller on Jul 23, 2008 8:43 PM EDT to parent up   0 recs

Probably right.

He seems that kind of guy.
