VabeachBledsoefan Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 UNREAL! MATSUI IS INCREADIBLE!!!!!!!! 67565[/snapback] Matsui's parents were from Hiroshima, must have had a messed up chromosome from all that radiation. !@#$ I'd rather see that putz George Bush win than see the Yankees win.
CosmicBills Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 4 RBI already. If you check his regular season stats...YES, HE IS THAT GOOD! It's a shame he doesn't get the attention that basically every other Yankee gets. He's a star but you almost never hear about him. 67569[/snapback] I had this convo with Millbank last week, but I think the reason why Matsui is overlooked is because he didn't turn out to be the "Godzilla" powerhitter everyone expected. Instead, what he is is an increadibly sound player. He hits for average, runs very well, is great in the field and is very, very patient and clutch.

VabeachBledsoefan Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 That's messed up on many, many levels 67576[/snapback] Well you take my pain as a Bills fan, add a bad start by Schilling, what do you expect
KD in CA Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Do they play "Godzilla" at the Stadium when Matsui comes to bat? They should...it's a great song!

KD in CA Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Holey Moses! What the hell is up with Schill? 67564[/snapback] He's hurt. That manager is an idiot if he doesn't take him out now. There's still a chance to give him a few more days to heel and then pitch Game 4 if he stops after 3 innings.
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 13, 2004 Author Posted October 13, 2004 So if you didnt provide it, it wouldnt have happened? Go Yanks Go Astros 67554[/snapback] Well there's like two other threads already now, so I guess not. At least most of the posts are in this one thread.

Instead, what he is is an increadibly sound player. He hits for average, runs very well, is great in the field and is very, very patient and clutch. 67574[/snapback] He hit 30 HR this season and I think his OPS is close to (if not above) .900. And he does everything else well. I don't know what people were expecting in the power department (50 HR?) but he's a great player. There isn't a team in baseball that wouldn't love to have him. I don't think most baseball fans get how good he is.
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 13, 2004 Author Posted October 13, 2004 BF I'm getting KILLED in 3-6 hold 'em right now. I need help. 67551[/snapback] 3/6 limit hold 'em is an easy concept. Only play the following hands. AA KK QQ JJ 10/10 9/9 8/8 7/7 AK (Suited) AK non suit AQ suited You get one of those hands you raise obviously, you don't you fold. Don't slowplay anything.
SilverNRed Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Matsui's regular season AVG OBP SLG OPS .298 .390 .522 .912 That is a borderline superstar, ladies and gentlemen.
millbank Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Matsui's regular season AVG OBP SLG OPS.298 .390 .522 .912 That is a borderline superstar, ladies and gentlemen. 67594[/snapback] Thats right last year against sox he hit .304 in Championship series make no mistake he is huge in Japan, many million watch him and Yankee's , They are going to take out Schilling now I think
CosmicBills Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Wow, Moose is loose! Oh, I know BF, I was playing only the top 10 hands but I kept getting em cracked. Just a bad run was all:) I was trying to spark your poker jones.
BF_in_Indiana Posted October 13, 2004 Author Posted October 13, 2004 The Red Sox look flat. I think the extra days off hurt them to be honest. St. Louis has had that problem in the NLCS the last few times they have gotten there, too much time in between a sweep in the LDS and the first game of the LCS.
CosmicBills Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 I think Schill is just more hurt than they are letting on...

Just a bad run was all:) I was trying to spark your poker jones. 67602[/snapback] I HATE limit poker. You will find that premium hands don't get paid off a lot in small limit games because you can't really muscle your way into a pot, some idiot is always going to crack you with Q7 or something. Usually I do pretty well in limit hold 'em but the last time I went to a casino I got busted for 400 bucks.
wwovince Posted October 13, 2004 Posted October 13, 2004 Its not over yet the game or the series. Maybe the Red Sox need a loss in the playoffs and not sweep everyone? Who knows its still a long way to go. GO SOX!!!

Who knows its still a long way to go. GO SOX!!! 67612[/snapback] I hear ya wwovince, but you have to admit, this is a HUGE game for the Sox. Everyone (Yanks fans included) expected you to take Game One behind your best pitcher. If Schill got rocked like this (and even worse, if he's hurt) that puts all the pressure on Pedro to win at LEAST 2 of his starts. And who knows where his head is at.
