Futures

Just got back from Vegas where I was able to plop down $20 on the Rays to win the World Series. Yeah, they are long shots to win it all but the Stratosphere Sports Book was giving 150:1 odds, so I had to take it. Most Casinos had odds anywhere from 75 to 100:1 and The Rio actually had 60:1.

Well, I think

Riggans pretty much cemented himself as the catcher on this team....

Let's hope Navi continues to hit, or else we're going to be pondering a platoon of Jaso and Riggo in the future.

Well, that is the main roadblock

The diversion of tax revenue is the sticking point in the project. If the Rays were willing to finance the stadium on the waterfront, the deal would sail forward. Sure, some people might object to giving them a lease on city parkland, but most of the legitimate criticisms have to do with $$$.

God fuckin damn it

If you got a problem with me, trying to keep people from dropping F-Bombs and going overboard with language...IM me. It's the same as my email address.

Lay off, is all I'm trying to say. If I want to be a douche, I could've done worse.

I know calls are BS

But we're all at the age where we know where there's a universal implied groan and "FUCK!" to go along with it.

Such is the perils of gameday threads

If you want an active gameday community, you will need to put up with knee-jerk reactions and gratuitous cursing. It happens everywhere, and quite frankly I don't think people are going overboard.

It should be minimized, obviously, and it shouldn't be commonplace in non-gameday threads, but I have no problem with it here in the amount people have been using it.

i know its early in the season but...

we dont even have a starter close to .300 right now unless you count riggans and hinske's dueling .286s

Just got home from the game

Had a blast despite the loss. Loved all the booing on that clearly blown call at third.

Great night, place was electric.

Agree

As I said in the above post. I wonder what the crowd will be like tomorow.
