Re: Home and in my bed..... - 2 months ago

Great news James. Good to see you on your feet.

Re: Time to say I'm pretty sure I'm OK..... - 2 months ago

Just seeing this now, James. I was wondering why I hadn’t seen many posts from you lately. I’m glad that your spirits are up and will be thinking about you on April 27th and during your smooth and successful recovery.

Jim was a must-read poster… - 5 months ago

He had inside information and he understood the game. I also remember him as being extremely kind. RIP. Great to see you post, Guard. It’s been a long time.

I was thinking today - 6 months ago

I’ve spent so many seasons as a Rams fan lamenting the meaningless December games due to the team being long out playoff contention. Now the Rams have 2 games left and they have already clinched a playoff berth. So here I am in December again watching the Rams play not quite meaningless, but relatively low stakes football. However, this time it’s low stakes for completely different reasons. I hav

Re: Hey, Canada. - 7 months ago

No, it was 2003 training camp. Jimmy Kennedy held out for the first few days but showed up the day before I left. My better-half and I met up with you, Guard and his wife and went out for dinner one night. I still have some photos.

RFL!!! Hope you are well. I think about meeting you and Guard in Macomb quite frequently. What a great moment in time that was for me.

Thx. Likewise. nm - 7 months ago

I feel the same way.. - 7 months ago

I never clicked on those articles when they were posted on the main forum. In fact, I found those articles so overwhelmed the board that I did not visit the board as much as I did before. I am grateful that there was a separate forum created for them. Out of sight out of mind for me.

They see Yesavage for the second time tonight... - 8 months ago

As meteoric as he has been he has also looked shaky at times. I think that the moment and the Dodgers bats get the best of him fairly early tonight.

Dominant indeed.

Re: Tonights WS game - 8 months ago

I should be more excited about this Blue Jays win. Yesavage and the Jays looked overmatched early in early innings, but somehow managed to get out of a couple of jams. Aside from big sixth inning, the Jays didn’t have a lot going on at the plate. Schneider’s pinch run pinch hit moves (Luke’s, IKF and Barger) paying off so handsomely seems like a bit of a unicorn. Anyway, I’m glad that nobody wil

Re: not rubbing salt in an old wound, but........ - 9 months ago

That’s one thing that bothers many Canadian hockey fans, but not me. First off, I’m a diehard Bruins fan so I cheer for whoever the Leafs or Habs are playing against. Even in the playoffs when the Bruins are out, I root hard for Montreal and Toronto to lose. I went to the University of Calgary in the 90s and was lucky enough to go to about 4 games a year, and became a bit of a Flames fan because

I remember it vividly - 9 months ago

Same with the first time they won the WS the year before. I also have clear memories of their 5 game loss to Oakland in the 1989 ALCS, and their late September collapse in 1987 when Bill Madlock practically slid into centre field to take out Tony Fernandez, and their loss to KC in the 1985 ALCS still seems fresh as well . Anyway, after the strike in 1994, it took me a long time to get even half i

Ok - 9 months ago

Did not expect this wounded Jays team to get this far. So happy for George Springer. Seattle fans cheered while he was lying in the dirt ,after being hit in the knee by a pitch and he responds by putting the Jays in to the World Series. I have no expectations for the for this series, but the Jays are playing with house money as far as I’m concerned.

Re: Kirwin was even more demonstrative than Miller.. - 1 year ago

Miller too was negative about the signing though. Definitely commented on his lack of size and noted that this would Ford’s fourth team.

Kirwin was even more demonstrative than Miller.. - 1 year ago

Pat sounded almost flabbergasted that the fan would even complain about the Chargers not re-signing Ford. Kirwin citied Ford’s inability to get on the field in Buffalo, flat out saying that he is a “journeyman” and that the Rams “overpaid” for him.

Some team is really going to luck out with Kupp - 1 year ago

Even if he isn’t a 1000 yard receiver anymore, and I’m not saying he won’t be, Kupp is such a valuable player as a blocker and as a leader. He would be great for any team with a young offense.

I’m quite interested to see Lindenberg’s agility numbers.

Re: Your area must be saturated with artifacts..... - 1 year ago

Yes on all counts. Last autumn indigenous remains that were deliberately buried were found at a construction site just over an hour away from where I live. The remains were carbon dated to approximately 1404 C.E. Over the years pottery shards, stone tools and copper artifacts have been discovered. Despite spending a lot of time outdoors and in different areas of the boreal forest around h

As a Gopher’s enthusiast I am interested to Cody Lindenberg’s 40 time and 3 cone - 1 year ago

I was always impressed by Lindenberg’s awareness during his time at Minnesota. I don’t know how well it will transfer to the NFL if he doesn’t have the speed or agility though. He weighed in at around 240 in Mobile, but I thought that he looked smaller than that during his college career. He seems like a guy the Rams might take later on in the draft.

Re: Rams' offseason needs (from the Athletic) - 1 year ago

Yeah, I get that, but I guess the main reason I am feeling this way is that the Rams let it be known that extending Kyren is a priority. I like Kyren, so I don’t have an issue with the Rams wanting to keep him around. However, I value a good LT more than I do a good RB. You’re correct though, it is possible that the Rams have something cooking with AJ, and the silence in this specific issue coul

Re: Rams' offseason needs (from the Athletic) - 1 year ago

Perhaps I’ve missed it, but I have yet to see any indication that the Rams are making re-signing Alaric Jackson a priority. I find this disappointing. Perhaps it is all tied into what happens to the cap with Stafford, but keeping Jackson seems like a no brainer to me. Losing both Jackson and Stafford would be a monumental step backwards for an offense that had some struggles even when healthy in

What a great looking crew - 1 year ago

Clearly an intelligent and.cultured group as well. So nice that they wanted to travel together at this stage in their lives. NYC is such an overwhelming place to visit. So much to see and do.
