Most influential players in NBA History NBA analyst Charley Rosen provides a fairly comprehensive if not obvious list of players who had the most impact on the game itself. Who's missing?

Red Sox 3B Lowell on Fidel Castro: "I hope he does die." Lowell's a Cuban-American whose family has first hand knowledge of the suffering inflicted on many Cubans under the Castro regime.

Talk to someone who lived in Cuba then slam Lowell.Like it makes any difference what we think or how that country should be ran.Next blowup boat to leave Cuba departs in 3 minutes.All aboard........

Is Mac deserving? Some thoughts regarding Mac's potential inclusion in the HOF.

We stood downwind from the smoke ya dope.Like burning 3 roid bat's is worse than the pollution or even the air in your house.Actually,the bats were ash, pretty much with the laquer shaved off.Thanks for your concern tho.I'm jilted,i loved baseball more than anything until all this shit came out.If i had a Sammy bat,the cork would of made the fire last longer....

The best thing i ever did was throw my Mac,Bonds,Raffie bats into the backyard firepit while all my friends cheered(all gamers i might add).Wait until they all get full blown cancer in a few years,which they will.Then what,blame the hotdogs from the ballpark for the cancer?

An Indictment for Bonds? An indictment could drop as early as this afternoon, charging Barry Bonds with tax evasion, perjury, and maybe even a few smaller charges. Also, with friends like these...

When Ozzie tells you to plunk, you plunk...or get plunked In the White Sox vs. Rangers game yesterday, rookie reliever Sean Tracey got yanked after what looked like a failed plunk attempt on Hank Blalock (who grounded out.) Tracey, who got called up to replace the injured Cliff Politte, got an earful from manager Ozzie Guillen, then demoted back to Triple A. Does Tracey deserve sympathy or did he get what he deserved?

I'll plunk you and your momma for half of what they get paid.

St Louis' Ankiel out for season Ok so I'm a Tigers fan and probably shouldn't care, but it just strikes me as odd that someone named Ankiel should be sidelined with a knee injury. Anyone have any other odd confluences of names to injurys or even plaing position?

Of all the game bats i own,his is the only one still tucked away in a dark corner.I'll never forget the quote"He's the next Sandy Koufax".After all i did to get that gamer.I'll trade it for a piece of gum that Albert Belle chewed,any takers?

Feds trying to hush Bond's Ex Wife Conspiracy anyone? Cuz I sure as hell can smell blood in the water. I just had to post this. I know everyone's prolly tired of all the Barry Bonds stories, but this one looks pretty interesting in light of the Jason Grimsley episode.

Wait until they all get cancer down the road and want us all to feel sorry for them.Then they'll all come clean,write a book and we'll all buy it,maybe not all of us, but that's what will happen.

Umpire gets physical Major League Baseball umpire Tony Randazzo apparently initiated physical contact with Colorado manager Clint Hurdle during an argument on Wednesday. Hurdle was objecting to Randazzo's ejection of Colorado pitcher Ray King, who also said Randazzo made contact with him. With no TV crews on hand, however, proving the contact might be difficult. That is, except for the thousands of fans who witnessed the argument.

So much for Pujol's run at the HR and RBI records St. Louis Cardinals first baseman Albert Pujols, the major league leader in HRs (25) and RBIs (65), injured his right oblique muscle in Saturday's game and might miss up to six weeks. He was on pace for 74 HRs and 192 RBIs, both of which would've been new MLB records.

All those big homer guy's were juiced,c'mon.Albert was not that big his rookie year, i have many pic's from spring training to prove it.He probally stopped when the hammer came down like the rest of them.Great player yes,alway's has been.Juiced in the beginning,yes.Now,if they test negative there is nothing you can do but you have to be goofy to think he was never on supplements.Denial is killing the average baseball fan for sure.I'm not taking anything away from him,he's great to watch and got shafted on the MVP because of Baroid Bonds.Dont' forget.. roids causes many injuries that would normally never happen even after years of not using.

Gooden: "I'd rather get shot than come back here" Will prison finally be the thing that enables Dwight Gooden to kick his drug habit? Or will this sad tale of a spectacular career gone wrong and, more importantly, his life, keep spiraling downward?

Chelios to return to Red Wings The ageless Chris Chelios set to come back for another season with the Red Wings. 23 seasons played ties him with Al MacInnis for second amongst defensemen.

I still recall him on the local radio station saying"i'd never leave Chicago and go to the rivals".Soon after he left his restaurant seemed to slowly diminish.Then he goes to the Wings and play's like he never did in Chicago.He was like a new player.I know,money and all that but he could of did better here and gave us our money's worth.

Barry Bonds to get an Asterisk in Record Book * * maybe not.
posted by Bill Lumbergh at 08:37 AM on May 25
Asterisk everything from 1986 on.....around then only a few real players stand out.Brett,Molitor,Yount,Bench, Carter,Morgan,Gwynn,Henderson, Ripken,Winfield,Fisk,Rose,Pere z,and a few more.If these guy's juiced ,i'd really have no respect for the game.I'm hanging on hoping it will clean up, but i have to go back to these player's au natural.Mays,Aaron,Williams the last 3 greats. Ruth....alot of lobbed balls thrown to him and hardly anyone reached into the 90mph range.I take it for what it's worth.I only have these to keep me interested.In fact,Maris was probally the last REAL natural when it comes to single season hr's.God save the game.........

White Sox and Cubs brawl. Cubs manager Dusty Baker has no problem with Pierzynski, but Rich Hill does, calling the collision "gutless" and "pathetic". White Sox manager Ozzie Guillen's response?
"Tell that Triple-A [bleep] to shut the [bleep] up. Tell him to start throwing some strikes or he's going to get Dusty fired."
Any questions?

You block the plate,you get ran over.Gosh,everybody forget's how to play the game.It's all sissyfied.I dont expect anything less from a team that's touted as winners all the time, with loser fans and bad management to pull what they did.Totally low class and the catcher explains later how kids were watching,duh.And they wonder why they never get my money for 4 years now.That was worse than the fan who slugged the Royals coach but the tribune will spin it around and the dummy fans will side with Barret..as usuall.Wait another 100 years cub fans.....The punch was weak also,equal to a hockey punch 3 inches away.

Garner, Springer suspended for "beaning" Bonds Well...it WAS obvious that Springer was throwing at Bonds, but with their history, who can understand why not.
