we are attempting and RBI marathon this weekend...

[rastein]

Funny, but the wrigley faithful would boo the likes of Jacque Jones, LaTroy Hawkins, and Sammy Sosa; but they chanted "augie!  augie!" for Ojeda.

That's because those other guys sucked balls. Augie cares about the purity of the game, playing it right. They only cared about money. The world would be a better place with more Octavio "Augie" Ojeda's...

[RedBarron]

GoReds, you may hate me; but I don't hate you.


I like Augie, but he sucks much more than Jones, Hawkins, and Sosa. . .  . . .okay, I'm done. . . .no more Cubfanity.

[moses]

I must say I am sure glad I took the time to read this entire thread.

[Reds]

locked, thanks to Cubs fans.

[JoeDirt]

not locked--liar!

[Reds]

okay, unlocked...but the cubs talk needs to go somewhere else...

and ryno, I hate cubs fans as a whole not individually...and it mostly stems from the fact that none of them can NOT talk about the stupid fkn cubs. 

This thread is a perfect example....the mention of Augie Ojeda. a player who couldnt even play 200 games in four years for the shitty Cubs somehow spawned like fifteen memory posts as if it was Barry Larkin we were talking about.....Augie sucked/sucks as a MLB'er...end of story.

[Reds]

BAH!  Damn you Dirt!  I'll get you!

Augie sucked/sucks as a MLB'er...end of story.

[JoeDirt]

BAH!  Damn you Dirt!  I'll get you!

...and my little dog, too?

[Reds]

possibly, but dont hold me to that commitment.

quit making cub posts, homo

I can't look at Ryno's AWESOME aviator and not think Jody Davis.

[Briznock]

Hey everybody..... Lets get this back on track.  I am currently making a quick little Excel spreadsheet at work and hope to have some stats up tonight.  Possibly this afternoon if it is slow enough here.

[Gantry]

I can't believe that I missed this entire thread, was in Ohio over the weekend for a wedding and was Internet-less.  This is amazing shit boys...

[Reds]

I feel gantry's presence in this thread has putt he stamp of approval on the first RBI marathon...

I wish the best of luck to Nacho and Strassy...but I warn you....it's going to be the toughest 24 hours of your life..and gets lots of variation in your games...because we didnt shake things up for 20 hours or so, and then played a few HR derby games, and an couple All Star games I think...So I added little variations like letting Sullivan hit and changes in lineups, because everyone likes when Spike Owen gets on base.

[Gantry]

I'm telling you, choose your opponents sub is a great way to mix it up...

[Nacho]

I wish the best of luck to Nacho and Strassy...but I warn you....it's going to be the toughest 24 hours of your life..and gets lots of variation in your games...

I think that 24 hours of Ho vs. SL is not only all the excitement we need, but it also will be the only way to fit in an entire 100 games in 24 hours.

[Reds]

I'm telling you, choose your opponents sub is a great way to mix it up...

We tried this Gantry...it led to mass confusion about what the rules should be....Would it be Kosher to sub out for the pitcher intentionally knowing your opponent only has a certain amount of pitchers?  Also who decides on when to take a pitcher out...The one we tried I kept Clemens in because I didnt know I was allowed to take him out, and gave up 7 or 8 runs...What about subbing a player out four times to just completly eliminate your opponents bench?  I need further information.

What part of OH?  I'll choke you if you say Columbutt!

[rastein]

Hey Jim, remember when the Reds traded for Gary Majewski and he got hurt? Remember when they traded for Bill Bray and he gave up lots of runs, including an RBI hit to DAVID ECKSTEIN.
