[quote name="Ty Cobb" post="824598" timestamp="1281542493"] Big win for the RANGERS last night.  David Murphy hit a 2-run HR to give the RANGERS a 3-2 lead.  A HR from ARod tied the game at 3 then the RANGERS loaded the bases in the 10th.  Murphy came to the plate and came through with a walk off single.  RANGERS win 4-3.  [/quote] big win is right!  the rangers had had a two game losing streak coming in, and the A's and Angels have closed the gap a bit (albeit Texas still has a 7 1/2 and 9 game lead over the two of them, respectively).  losing last night could have been the start of a nasty losing streak, putting it at 3 games leading up to another game against the Yanks and 3 against Boston this week.  It was nice to see how well the Rangers peformed last night in what amounted to a playoff atmosphere, getting a run in the bottom of the tenth off of Mariano Rivera. 

the rangers have won 3 straight, and are 14-7 since the all-star break!  their lead is currently 9 1/2 games over Oakland, and 10 games over LAA!!!!

"arrest" and "conviction" are two different things.  if i'm arrested, but proven innocent, or at least not prosecuted, i shouldn't be punished outside of the law considering i wasn't even punished BY the law.

hey hippy, you wanna see if we can get tvc and one more (buc, maybe?) out on a big trip with bh?

[/quote] I go all the time offshore.  Find 3 or 4 buddys and send me a PM.  Cost vary depednign on distance traveled.  Normally about $900 divided by the # of people fishing.  [/quote] i'll see what i can do!

i actually talked to a guy in the coast guard about fishing by the station today.  he didn't really know about a rule one way or another.  the only real problem i have is that there isn't even a sign up.

[quote name="OldSkool97" post="823021" timestamp="1280973125"] Whats your opinion on why is HR total is as low as it is right now? Also do you think he will pick it up a bit now after getting number 600? [/quote] he'll pick it up.  if i'm not mistaken, he was stuck on 499 for a really long time as well...

let me know the next time y'all are headed out, if the timing is right, i'd definitely be interested.

sounds like a blast!!

I guess they wanted a fat Mark Texiera.

They're on fire, winning 9 of 13 since the allstar break, taking series @ boston, @ detroit, and against LAA and OAK.  their lead has ballooned to 9 games, and they've made 3 trades now that will greatly help them down the stretch, aquiring Cliff Lee, Bengie Molina, and now Jorge Cantu.

CRAP! [/quote] You would have loved it last night, especially if you just wanted to catch fish. I caught almost 30 and they were still hitting when I left. [/quote] live bait or soft plastics?

arguably the most famous sports team owner in baseball history.

they all took less money to help the team, but when you're talking about the type of money they're getting, it's not like they'll notice what they passed up.

Uruguay and Germany are tied 2-2 pretty late in the game.  it's been a pretty open game, and entertaining to watch.  the 3rd place game usually is.

the rangers gave up their second 4-run lead in two days tonight, this one on a 2-strike, 2-out grand slam.  they've now given up a homer in the top of the 10th, and are down to the league-worst orioles.  they blew a chance to extend their lead to 6 1/2 games yesterday, and are in danger of seeing it shrink to 4 1/2  tonight.  what a waste.  hopefully they'll do something in the bottom of the 10th here.

well, me and bucof2010, and maybe thetragichippy are gonna go out and try our luck tonight, and tvc has said he's going to make a cameo appearance.  i'm looking forward to catching some fish, and meeting a few folks that i've been talking to on here for years!

I also heard that the main decision of him not going to Chicago, where he would've had a better shot at a championship, was that they refused to cater to the needs of his entourage.  They said they didn't do it for Jordan, so they weren't going to do it for him.

This is a HUGE trade for the Rangers!!!  Lee is arguably the best pitcher in the AL, and is going to be a huge help down the stretch.  Hopefully he'll like it in Texas and sign a big contract at the end of the year.
