  1. The Bears, Jaguars, and 3rd game against the Eagles say otherwise.
  2. for 360. i didnt like it at first because of the swinging controls, but i changed it to just pressing a and hitting direction and i like it a lot more then the show. The pitching feature is great though. And the mechanics of every pitcher are right on. Amazing how pinpoint it is. The thing that annoys me most is the computer is rigged when it plays defense... every play possible it makes. i enjoy the announcers in it. the pregame 2 minute show while its loading is as informative as ive ever seen. as someone who had the show last year and got 2k7 this year, i like 2k7 at first.
  3. Yankees starters Mussina, Pavano go on disabled list April 15, 2007 OAKLAND, Calif. (AP) -- Mike Mussina and Carl Pavano joined fellow Yankees starter Chien-Ming Wang on the disabled list Sunday, further depleting New York's already taxed pitching staff. "Nobody wants that," Mussina said after cutting short his throwing session because of pain in his injured left hamstring. "We don't have a choice. You just find a way to get through it and deal with it. It's unfortunate. ... Nobody's having surgery. A couple of muscle pulls, a strain, we'll be fine." ADVERTISEMENT After a pair of extra-inning games Friday and Saturday against Oakland, the Yankees called up right-hander Chris Britton from Triple-A Scranton to give them a fresh arm in the bullpen for Sunday's series finale against the reigning AL West champion Athletics. New York manager Joe Torre said the club was discussing a couple of possibilities to take Pavano's turn in the rotation Tuesday against the Cleveland Indians at Yankee Stadium. Left-hander Chase Wright was thought to be the leading candidate to be called up from the minors. "It's OK," Torre said. "We're above water. That's the main thing. We're holding our own. We're going to get healthy. It's not anything that's going to debilitate anybody for a long time. We have to hang around." Pavano was scratched Friday from his scheduled start Saturday with tightness in his forearm, while Mussina has a strained hamstring that he injured three batters into the third inning Wednesday in a 5-1 loss to the Minnesota Twins. Mussina tried to throw off the mound Sunday morning but stopped after only seven pitches. Pavano didn't throw his scheduled bullpen. Mussina was able to do some light running and play catch. "I can do everything else, it's just getting down the hill trying to stop myself," he said. "It was wearing down. It hasn't been four days yet. I'm not disappointed." Pavano felt the problem in his pitching arm during his start Monday night and informed the Yankees afterward. He threw seven innings in an 8-2 win over the Minnesota Twins on Monday, giving up six hits and two runs for his first victory since May 22, 2005. He knows pushing it now might make things worse. "It's not something that's going to get any better going out there and trying to be a hero," Pavano said. "To take a step back like this is disappointing. It's the right thing to do." The 38-year-old Mussina, who won 15 games last year for his most victories since getting 17 in 2003, isn't sure whether he will need a rehab start before rejoining the rotation. "We'll worry about that when the time comes," said Mussina, who will be able to throw on flat ground during his DL stint.
  4. i got it with mlb 2k7 and i have no use for it at all. i was wondering if any out of market guys wanted it.
  5. ugh. itd be rex grossman or brian griese multiplied by 5. i dont want to bring in another starter.
  6. if a guy like Jarrett is there at 20 we should take him. A guy with his ability is hard to pass up on at #20. For all we know, we may be set at OLB. Wilkinson we think can be a starter of the future and Mitchell is a proven 100 tackle LB that can hold down the fort for a year, and we can evaluate where we are at LB. And Kiwi may be able to have an impact too. I would personally trade down if Jarrett fell to 20 and use him as trade bait (maybe we can acquire a future first rounder from a team that wants to acquire another 1st rounder). but i would not have a problem if we took him, or even dwayne bowe from LSU.
  7. unless he gets a 69 game hit streak or something dating back to last year.
  8. dont take much stock into the interviewing thing. this is just for future reference if something were to happen to campbell and quinn or russell hit the market at some point.
  9. a little taste of reality. arod strikes out with a man on in the 8th. hes a monster though.
  10. yeah delgado. but beltran has been shut down a little bit too much too... i dont like the "dating back to last year" thing. for a 11 game hitting streak theres no point of going back.
  11. wrigtht and carlos one game are gonna have 2 home runs apiece. they are so close to exploding right now.
  12. good. theyre playing taking care of business after our wins again.
  13. good. theyre playing taking care of business after our wins again.
  14. good. theyre playing taking care of business after our wins again.
  15. that was a great clip shown by darling with perez. kudos.
  16. it was rockin opening day but it didnt stop me from freezing my ass off and being uncomftorable... your sister is freezing at shea right now with probably 45 minutes to an hour left in the game.
  17. you should be thankful. do you know how miserable it is there tonight?
  18. i meant with us as far as i can remember he never really imploded. in his debut against philly howard hit a grand slam against him but he went like 5 innings and gave up 4 or 5 runs.
  19. thank god only one of them is an ESPN game.
  20. i dont think olly ever got as bad as last nights game and as good as last weeks game last year. id rather him just throw 6 IPs 4 ERs every night.
  21. maybe we can pull off a trade where we can get another guy like Mota last year. Omar knows his stuff when it comes to unknown pitchers. I trust him.
  22. didnt we win 2 prime time games last year?
