  1. You clunkers know the old adage about throwing stones while living in glass houses? The Angels rarely overcome adversity. Remember the bus crash? Other teams would have miraculously won the WS. Not us. Texas would need their whole roster to fall ill or injured for us to really relish our position.
  2. Not even in the same caliber. Manny was a HOF before he got caught on juice.
  3. Pulled the total dipshit move and went with Bubba over Scott as my A player today. Nice one.
  4. Two drinks I love and believe taste better with pebble ice. Root beer. And the Hawaiian Punch from Winchell's donuts, if any exist anymore.
  5. Nay. If it doesn't have an "El" as the first word I'm already disappointed. I don't hit up Chino too often so I don't know too many there. Bravo is good. In Samta Ana/Costa Mesa Nate's Kwik Corner serves up a fatty. That Nicks in Seal beach is good too.
  6. I've wondered who are the Bronies of aw.com. Figured it was all the Bronco fans. MHD?
  7. He's priced out of that area. PS places are mostly in the 800s, and even the Stonegate and newer Paradise Point or whatever its called across from the great park are in the mil. We looked at homes there recently. Loved the design and feel of the 2600 sq ft SFH, then saw they were 1.4 mil.
  8. That's where my wife is. She called me right after it happened. Said the building rocked pretty good. And that place is new. Only 7-8 years old. And interestingly sits on the site of where the lagoon was on Gilligan's Island.
  9. A nicer condo in irvine runs about 600 and probably will net you mello Roos. There are several new developments north of the 5 fwy but hey are anywhere from mid 900s for about 2000 SQ FT. If he has cash and time hey are building the orchard Hills estates. Those start at 3 mil.
  10. A's could have five starters to open season on DL and still have a 5 game lead by May 1st.
  11. 2014 American League MVP Mike Trout -- 5/1 Miguel Cabrera -- 6/1 Jacoby Ellsbury -- 12/1 Albert Pujols -- 12/1 Josh Donaldson -- 14/1 Robinson Cano -- 14/1 Evan Longoria -- 14/1 Adrian Beltre -- 16/1 Chris Davis -- 16/1 Dustin Pedroia -- 16/1 Eric Hosmer -- 18/1 National League MVP Andrew McCutchen -- 6/1 Joey Votto -- 7/1 Paul Goldschmidt -- 9/1 Yadier Molina -- 12/1 Buster Posey -- 12/1 Freddie Freeman -- 14/1 Yasiel Puig -- 14/1 Ryan Braun -- 14/1 Carlos Gonzalez -- 16/1 Matt Kemp -- 16/1 Bryce Harper -- 16/1 Troy Tulowitzki -- 18/1 American League Cy Young Yu Darvish -- 8/1 David Price -- 9/1 Clay Buchholz -- 10/1 Max Scherzer -- 10/1 Matt Moore -- 12/1 Chris Sale -- 12/1 Justin Verlander -- 12/1 Masahiro Tanaka -- 15/1 Jered Weaver -- 15/1 C.J. Wilson -- 15/1 Felix Hernandez -- 15/1 Hisashi Iwakuma -- 15/1 CC Sabathia -- 18/1 Anibal Sanchez -- 18/1
  12. I see the odds came out yesterday. 5-1. Interesting. Better than Cabrera.
  13. Hard to believe he could be better than the last two years, but he looks even more dialed in. He's probably 4-1 or so. Worth a Hundy.
  14. Position. @MikeDiGiovanna: Move from 1B side of rubber to 3B side nets results for #Angels RHP Joe Blanton. http://t.co/dnXDxe95cl
  15. The day Ramirez was captured, channel 4 was first on scene. The camera man told me he had never been so scared. He got the up close shot of Ramirez in the back of the car. Despite the fact that Ramirez was handcuffed and inside the squad car, and that dozens of cops and the citizens who beat his brains in were all right there, he was terrified. Said he had nightmares for years because Ramirez gave him the "if I could get out of here, I'd kill you" look.
  16. What I find sad is that you always see the same 8-10 photos of the stadium, a few aerials and a few promotional shots from inside that look like they were manufactured by the same group that made the 60s Disney staged photos. It's too bad there aren't more photos from the 60s and 70s out there in the public domain.
  17. Arose will always be mentioned among the greats. There will be an asterisk attached but he's always part of the conversation. He may come back next year and hit decently and pad those stats. I love all the hate for him. We've got about 75 deputized Bob Costases on this board.
  18. How about positive comments only or you are banished?
  19. I love chocolate. Awesome. Night Stalker plotted two escapes from max prison; wanted to go down in blaze of glory: sources http://t.co/fw4Dhfo16p
