Around SBN: PHOTOS: Mike Moser's Dunk Face Is Spectacular

"I hope I die on the field," he says. "I hope when I walk to change the pitcher, I drop dead and that's it. I know my family would be so happy that it happened on the field. They wouldn't feel bad because that's what I've always wanted to do.

"You die on the field — good luck, get him out of here, next man."

Ozzie discussing his death

not a good sign when your manager is suicidal after the first game of the season

by 815Sox on Feb 25, 2009 10:53 PM CST reply actions  

meh

At this time in ’05 he said he would retire if the Sox won the World Series. We know how that worked out.

It was a joke

Ozzie has said much crazier shit, this shouldn’t phase anyone

by 815Sox on Feb 25, 2009 11:24 PM CST up reply actions  

citing family problems, and after watching his team get walloped in a one sided game, Ozzie threatens suicide. about 2 hours ago

Oh....

I posted in the Yahoo! Fantasy Baseball thread an invite into my league that needs 1, possibly 3 more people. Since that fanpost got buried I thought I’d try here instead of creating a fanpost all to myself.

I have a H2H league of my own that currently has 11 players. I’m looking for at least 1 more, preferbly 3, to cap it off at 14…

If anyone missed out in the SSS league, feel free to join. Fairly competitive group and the stat categories should be fun!

I see Ozzie meeting his maker

as a bloated old geezer (ala Elvis) who drunkenly wanders out from a Venezuelan nightclub and steps in front of an oncoming car.

But that’s just me.

Anonymous veteran Sox player thinks 2nd base is Getz' to lose
But the perceived cloudy picture might be clearer than the Sox are letting on. While the second-base derby is being advertised as a three-man race among Chris Getz, Brent Lillibridge and Jayson Nix, one Sox veteran insisted the job is Getz’s to lose.

‘’His swing is too fundamentally sound,’’ the player said. ’’It’s a swing that can hold up an entire major-league season.’’

Useless tidbit of the day

NY Post:

The most plate appearances over the past two years by a righty hitter are the 1,446 of David WrightDavid Wright . The second most is 1,431 by Orlando Cabrera. Just think of that: Cabrera has come to bat the second most times of any righty batter the past two years and yet is still unemployed. The shortstop’s dollar requests plus his Type-A status (thus, the need for draft-pick compensation when he is signed) have severely hurt his marketability. Still, you would think a guy who has been used this much in recent years would be able to find work some place.

On this winter day, people go out at noon, wave their hands over their heads and chant “Hoodie-Hoo”.

It is a day to chase away winter and bring in spring. After all, everyone in the northern hemisphere are sick and tired of winter at this point and a little crazy being cooped up inside all winter and not seeing the sun.
