Around SBN: Bob Sapp Denies Throwing Fights

Even though we all need our shoelaces taken from us...


I still believe there was some Birdland in yesterday's tragedy.  Since no one else has allowed voting for the THIRD game in a row I guess I'll keep the faith and throw this thing up here.

Sorry dude

My mind was clouded with rage when I wrote the post game. I’ll try to remember in the future.

I threw the graph below the jump

It was kinda awkward looking with the picture on the front page. Hope you don’t mind.

Actually, I thought I did.

I wasn’t sure if I could get the iframe in there under the visual view so i switched it to the html view. When I did that the jump disappeared. So I went back and re-added the jump. But thanks, I wouldn’t have had a problem with it anyway.

Matusz deserves it

That was brilliant for 7 innings, even if it feels like ages ago

Really?

I mean, I thought it was pretty painful to watch too, but you didnt like Matusz’ strong 7 innings, or Wigginton’s 2 home runs, or Luuuke’s pinch hit homer?

by Trebuchet on Apr 14, 2010 11:55 AM EDT up reply actions  

I voted Brian

but I thought about Wiggy considering I started him in place of Mark Teixeira yesterday (by accident) and he scored me 14 points.

I know, that was mean

but I still contend that V-Mart for Mike Young is not a balanced trade. Now V-mart for Teixiera… that’s more like it.

Brian deserves it

But I know Wiggy won’t get any respect for 2 dingers. So I gave him my vote.

I just thought of that..
