mlb
al east new york yankees tampa bay rays baltimore orioles boston red sox toronto blue jays al central chicago white sox minnesota twins detroit tigers kansas city royals clevland indians al west la angels oakland a's seattle mariners texas rangers nl east philadelphia phillies this team is in serious contention. only injury could hold them back. the trio of utley, howard and rollins in the infield is truly amazing. to top that, they hold hamels, halladay and happ, who clearly make up the greatest first 3 starters in the majors. huge weakness remains the non-existant bullpen. new york mets this team has failed in recent years, despite the amazing team they've held. last year can be blamed on injury. this year see's the team a tad weaker as far as names go, but with health, they may just string along in this division enough to possibly compete. atlanta braves the line-up is looking kinda weak here, but the starting pitching makes up for it. i hold much respect for this braves pitching staff. i'm interested to see what wagner and saito have left..... they will determine the strength of this bullpen. florida marlins boy do i like this line-up....this team will put up some serious runs this year. i also kinda like the bullpen, despite its lack of huge names. what ruins this teams chances this season is the starting pitching. this team cannot be in a pennant race with these guys starting for them. washington nationals i'd love to say something positive about this team, but there's not much there to speak about. nl central st.louis cardinals chris carpenter and albert pujols on the same team. arguably the greatest starting pitcher in the game alongside arguably the greatest bat in the game. strengh of this team is its pitching, both the starters, but even more so the bullpen. huge weakness, despite the 3-4 double wammy of pujols and holliday, the line-up completely sucks. cincinnati reds the problem with me, is i see to far into the future. when i see the right moves being made, i point them out, however that usually translates into reality 1-2 years later. now the reds hold some serious pieces...joey votto, brandon phillips and jay bruce to add to the speedsters in the outfield. they've got cordero closing, with masset and rhodes setting him up...thats one serious bullpen. the starters are just gonna get better each year that passes. volquez, cueto and bailey can seriously throw, while arroyo and harang have proven they can win. this is well run team, that will end up competing for this division houston astros if oswalt can prove to be a worthy number 1 for the astros, than this line-up can win some games. if this team is around come trading time, this team has been known to make a big move. it won't take much for a team like this to go over the top in this division. chicago cubs i have a lot of questions regarding the condition and health of this line-up. to add on to that, the pitching staff also seems kinda weak..i'm not crazy for the bulllpen either. in the end, to be honest, i'd be suprised if this team was still around at the end of the season. pittsburgh pirates i like what they're doing with this team...slowly but surely, its just a matter of time. this team will crawl out of the gutter before long milwakee brewers other than the huge 3/4 fielder/braun, this is a very very weak line-up. who could possibly expect this team to compete with this kind of rotation. i like the bullpen, but its not gonna work ....you gotta rebuild here...trade one of the big guys in exchange for the future..its the only way to do it. nl west la dodgers this is a good team all around ......amazing bullpen, seriously, just out of this world. a little bit of a weakness with the starters, not that their numbers will show it in this kinda ball park, but still. colorado rockies another well rounded team, with a little bit of everything. betancourt for the eighth and street for the ninth, make this bullpen seem as solid as oak. i like their starters, jimenez, cook, francis, hammel and the hard throwing de la rosa. they've even got a few bats. i would not be suprised in the least if this team won this division san fransisco giants lincecum and cain easily make up the best 1-2 in baseball. the one thing thats holding this team back is its line-up, which is without doubt, the weakest in the game arizona cardinals these bats are weaker than their numbers show, and this rotation is much stronger than the number show. they'll need to find some form early on to keep up with the dodgers and the rockies...in the end, i don't think they'll be there. san diego padres the padres are still in the building stages....don't judge, adrian gonzalez will most likely not stay here, so as you can understand, the draft would be the main focus for this team Quote:

It's probably time anyway. You had a great year one, not so great years two and three. I'm pretty sure you were under 50% this NFL season. Better luck in the future. |

That pick must have been based on a conspiracy theory. What will we do with the thread now? We could lock it down for posterity or post puppy pictures.

The Jets beat San Diego? Wow!
Must've been the "oh shit" factor. If the Jets beat Indianapolis next week... I'm going to quit breathing air. |

we took in 300 grand in this thread the season the giants won the superbowl. that was a 100 percent in the playoffs year. then the rays....you know, that was pretty big....long term bet at 67/1. its been profitable. the chargers costed me more than my wagered money on the week and the season, it also costed me one of my 5 jobs. worse than that...that job provided me 40 percent of my anual income. this little thread here was kinda like an extension of that work....a free window.... and that is why i decided to stop posting in this thread.

Monster, you're the first person i've ever heard that is proud of their incestial conquests.
but, what are you going on about 8 year olds, and sex with underage children. it is common though, that molested children end molesting children when they grow up. just cause you were a victum to your mother, it does not mean that your children have to suffer the same as you. seek help!
