[ QUOTE ] Cards announcers are the biggest bunch of homers I have ever listened to. [/ QUOTE ] You must not get White Sox games [/ QUOTE ] I know enough not to "listen" to them. |

Also, the Cubs had Harry Carey (as did the Cards and Sox) who probably criticized his home team more than any announcer in the history of the game.

Until the Stros play in a real park, they don't count.

Alert: Fox Sports Midwest is replaying the NLCS game 5 from last year right now. You know, the game where Lidge snaps his neck from turning it too quick. It's the top of the 7th right now.

Echoing somewhat Joe Tall, I would think that the more rational Cardinal fans would start planting their emotional stabilizers and crestfallen outriggers right now, in addition to restraining from the more brazen rhetorical hooey bantered about almost non-stop in this forum.

plus the Astros are going to sign Adam Dunn as a free agent. [/ QUOTE ] Reds | Dunn agrees to a two-year contract Mon, 13 Feb 2006 19:43:01 -0800 [ QUOTE ] The Associated Press reports Cincinnati Reds 1B Adam Dunn agreed to a two-year, $18.5 million deal Monday, Feb. 13, with the team. Dunn will make $7.5 million this season and $10.5 million in 2007. The club has an option for a $13 million salary in 2008, which it can buy out for $500,000. [/ QUOTE ] O Rly? Until he learns to hit a bit smarter, Dunn is overrated anyways. He is quite simply completely incapable of moving runners over or driving in runs short o fhitting the ball to the moon. He has time to learn how to hit still, but it needs to happen soon if he's ever going to reach his full potential. Yes, I do see Houston as the favorite this year in the NL Central. I'd like to see my Reds make some sort of run, but realistically they only have one SP I like (Harang) and no bullpen arms I love. StL is aging & fragile, CHI's SPs are banged up (again!), and had an anemic offense last year, Mil is at least a year away from serious contention & Pitt is, well, Pitt. This is Houston's division by default this year IMO, even as a 90 win team. jvs |

I must be the only non sox fan to like Hawk Harrelson, I like announcers who are homers, also love Pat and Ron for the cubbies. As for the Cardinals, was very disappointed that they didnt resign Grudzalink (sp?) but Cubs and Astros are worse than last year so looks like 88 wins will win the division will probaly lose to whoever comes out of the east.

I'm a homer because I'd like to see the home team win the 88 it'll take to win the division, but am realistic enough to realize they're probably winning 72?
