    Nothing to do with Spring Training, but we will go 92 - 70 this year, IF Clemens comes back. I believe he will.

    Anyone going to Kissimmee this year?

    I'm really looking forward to seeing how the battle for the 4-5 spot in the rotation turns out.

    They used to be my second favorite team. Williams killed that today.

    Even if he was right, you don't preface bashing a former player by saying you don't do stuff like that or that you're more of a man because you don't say it to the media.

    Makes our Baggy situation seem like nothing.

    totally agreed. that sounds like a conversation that needs to take place over a cell phone...not through the media.

    Damn, we have to wait another 162 games until we get to the playoffs again. I can't wait.

    I find it kind of weird how Frank Thomas and Bagwell ended up having a feud with their management around the same time of year. They're having some eerie similarities in their careers and in life in general.

    "AstroLaunch is on the air!"

    Never thought hearing Milo's voice would make me so happy.
