The Reds stink. Everybody knows it, no matter what they say to your face. I am a resident of dayton and I'm tired of upper management pinching pennies and not getting them the pitching they so desperately need.

That said, my question is this: If the Dayton Dragons (Cincy single A) went down to Cincinnati for a seven game series, how do you think it would go? Do you think it would be close? Or would Dayton blow them out of the water?

This is annoying when you pay for an hour, but spend half the time doing push ups and stretches (which you can do yourself anyway before the class), and only spend half an hour practising the martial arts technique.

Personally, I think it will a great 3 game series. Both teams have explosive line-ups and decent pitching. Who takes this series? I like the fact that The Tigers start will Miller and then Bonderman. I think Sunday's game is the only game where Boston walks away with it. The other 2 games will be tight.
Your thoughts?

and may the best team win!

(I'm torn, kind of, I will always root for The Tigers....but I'd love to see Boston just walk away with The East!)(But,please, not at the expense of My Beloved Boys Of Summer!).

They re-signed him last offseason. I believe St. Louis is paying him somewhere in the neighborhood of $5.5 mil. All this for a guy who has almost gone one year between starts! Now, their is still no timeframe for his return. But even when he comes back, I don't think he'll be the Mulder that everyone is expecting. So, do you think the Cards should just try to unload Mulder?

Here are my thoughts...

Argentina played well overall.. not a stellar performance, but they played to a plan. They didn't scout their 1st team, but they were still attacking throughout the game.

Really wise decision from Alfio Basille to play Messi and Mascherano at the end. He made up the plan to not be over aggressive in the first 60 minutes, but once he knew that the game was going as planned (i.e. Paraguay not attacking), he took the chances and went all out with Messi and Mascherano and it paid out.

How in the world did Paraguay beat Colombia 5-0? Paraguay's performance was in no way near Colombia's in their match against Arg.

I am starting to believe that Messi is a great player in the class of Maradona, Pele etc. His entrance into any game changes the pace and strategy of the game. The opponents have to really adjust to him and the team once he is on the field... Did anyone notice that yesterday? Paraguay started to mark him and foul him once he gets the ball.

Jim Hunter said on Thursday at Daytona International Speedway that suspended crew chiefs should stay away from the racetrack, or risk further sanctions. Hunter said the edict was not put down in writing, but "was understood."
Do you agree with this "unwritten rule"?

There are a lot of people that come to Yahoo Answers to state that they think no skill is involved in auto racing. How can they even say that?
