  1. The ump will get to both pitchers tonight. Do they play God Bless America at Miller Park? Maybe Girardi will pull a Leyland.
  2. Well Minervini just said on On Deck that Hermida has a little problem with his leg Oh darn.
  3. Look like we are sending the white flag nice and early on Monday game. All we could do for Moehler is :pray : Nice faith, dude. Either Moehler is on or Moehler is off. If he's on, he's good. Stop being so negative.
  4. Lions cut WR Rogers, No. 2 pick in 2003 NFL.com wire reports DETROIT (Sept. 2, 2006) -- Charles Rogers was cut by the Detroit Lions, three years after they drafted the receiver second overall. Rogers' Detroit career ended with only 36 receptions for 440 yards and four touchdowns along with two broken collarbones and a four-game suspension. First-year coach Rod Marinelli was unimpressed by Rogers work ethic and production during training camp, when he was slowed by a sore knee. The new staff also did not have a history with Rogers like team president Matt Millen, who helped draft the former Michigan State star and gave him a $14.2 million signing bonus. source

  7. Rams sign Stephen Davis for one year, $850K The St. Louis Rams found a veteran backup running back who can help their workhorse Steven Jackson when they agreed to a one-year, $850,000 contract with running back Stephen Davis on Friday. The deal includes a $40,000 signing bonus and a minimum base salary of $810,000. Barring complications, the contract should be made official Friday, and Davis, a 10-year veteran, will begin practicing with the Rams for their Sept. 10 regular-season opener. Davis, 32, was released by the Carolina Panthers on March 1 in a salary cap-related move that could also be attributed to Davis' history of chronic knee problems. The move saved Carolina nearly $3 million against the cap. Davis visited the Rams a week ago, passed a physical and received an offer. The team awaited word for a week and Davis and the Rams finally worked out the deal Friday morning. With Marshall Faulk gone for the season, Davis was a perfect fit to work with Jackson, who is considered one of the best young backs in the game. However, it is not yet clear how the addition of Davis will affect the St. Louis depth chart behind Jackson. The Rams signed former Green Bay backup Tony Fisher early in the unrestricted free agency period and he is projected as the third-down back. The Rams, in need of a more physical short-yardage runner, signed Fisher just before camp began, when it became obvious that Faulk would not play in 2006. To make the deal work, the Rams gave Davis a $40,000 signing bonus and guaranteed a good portion of his base salary to ensure in Davis' mind he would be with the team. The Rams tried to get Michael Bennett from the Saints but he signed with the Kansas City Chiefs. A former Auburn standout, Davis, who finished the 2005 season on injured reserve, has rushed for 7,875 yards and 65 touchdowns on 1,905 carries. He also has 167 receptions for 1,404 yards and three touchdowns. In the prime of his career, Davis personified the workhorse tailback, averaging 300.6 rushes per season in a five-year span and three times logging 300-plus attempts. Davis had four seasons of 1,000 or more yards. In 2003, his first season with the Panthers, he posted a career-best 1,444 yards in leading Carolina to a berth in Super Bowl XXXVIII. Davis began his career as a fourth-round pick of Washington in 1996 and played with the Redskins for seven seasons before he was released for salary cap considerations. He signed with Carolina, which was a homecoming of sorts, since he is a Spartanburg, S.C., native. But his tenure with the Panthers was marked by knee problems. In 2004, Davis underwent the controversial "microfracture" surgery and was limited to two games. It marked just the latest in a series of treatments for knee problems. He was delayed in starting camp last summer before appearing in 13 games with 11 starts and carrying 180 times for 549 yards and 12 touchdowns. source
  8. Wow, you really hate to see this happen to a great player. The guy is tough as nails and I'm sure he'll come through this. As someone who has dealt with cancer within his family, I know how tough this is for the Red Sox and their fans. Hang in there, Jon. Look forward to seeing you back on the field real soon.
  9. Wow. Mitre blew the lead. End of story. How is it possible that Girardi gets blamed for this? WE DONT HAVE AN 8th INNING GUY YOU HALF BRAINED, SHORT SIGHTED IDIOTS! Can we just have ONE game where we lose and the manager doesnt get blamed for it? Jesus. THANK you! :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup :thumbup
