Dont you love the softballs that Joe Morgan was throwing up to Hank Aaron last night? Not one mention of Barry and his record?
Aaron has already let it be known that if people want to interview him - they have to agree that the mention of the record is taboo or they are not granted an interview -
He has also already publically stated that he will NOT be present when the record is broke -
Wants no part of it....
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
He said he doesn't want to have to express his true feelings in a public forum and that his life is about more than a single record in the record books....
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
Nice SWEEP this weekend -
However, still got 3 HUGE Road series left -
Need to get the first win Friday nite on the islands and take it from there -
Remember - LAST YEAR we swept them out there and then stunk it up the rest of the way....
''Don't be a bad dagh..."
That is such a load of crap from Hank's part. He is known as the home run king, so he cant say he doesnt want to be known for one record because its one of the most important records in all of sport. If he can freely talk about the racism he encountered to get the record he should be able to answer the question of why he will refuse to attend any games where Barry can take his record away.
i still would like to see what lorio could do as a starter and maybe rupert would do better in relief.
but im not a baseball coach and if it aint broke dont fix it.
go dogs!
Did the team come back to Ruston? And if so, do they catch the plane to Hawaii in Dallas or Shreveport?
Rupert did great yesterday. Don't change anything right now.
They drove their leased vans back to San Fransisco and flew out to Oahu from there. It must be rough having to find something to do in Hawaii until they play on Friday night Incidently......is everyone planning to watch the Hawaii games that will be streamed on WACtv for $6.95/ game? The catch is that the Friday & Saturday games start at 11:30 PM central time....and the Sunday game starts at 6:00 PM CT. You can test your computer on the WACtv site by trying to run the sample video.My computers' processor and lack of ram isn't enough to run the video so it comes out looking more like a slide show . I guess my brother will let me view the games on his computer.
I agree that we should leave everything as it is; in the starting rotation at this time.
I will disagree with giving Lorio a start at this. It is NO disrespect towards him, but he has a chance to be a DOMINANT closer; TECH's own Jon Papelbon. He also uses his HARD fastball to get ahead of batters. The second and third time around a lineup, it gets easier and easier to hit.
Actually - according to Fox -
They were waiting to hop a TRAIN to the Islands -
That must be one of those James Bond-esqe trains with underwater breathing apparatus and such....
May they have Bond girls on there also, I'm sure they guys would love that....
