They did make it to the NLDS. The Astros knocked them out in 5 games.

Well the NHL is on strike for probably the entire season, so you needn't worry...

Speaking of the NHL, where's Duneman? Haven't seen him on the board for a good long time... :headscratch:

I remember when basketball was on strike that one year :beaten:

Oh well, hockey is like the 1 sport I don't watch so it doesn't really hurt me ;)

I still remember Karl Malone's idiotic quote, when he was trying to justify the player's side to the media:

"Sure, we make a lot of money. But we spend a lot of money."

a few more days of rest for schilling then!

Just one, since game five would be Monday.

It'll be moot if they don't win game 3. And 4 for that matter. :sweat:

Doesn't sound like the extra day or two will be enough for him. His injury sounds more severe to me. Is it not?

Yeah, his ankle is hosed. Aside from making it painful to push off from the pitching rubber, he probably can't field the ball, else he'll aggravate the injury...

Sounds kind of like me...

My right ankle has been bad for quite a while. I think some of my ligaments are kind of loose (I have flat feet so that doesn't help anything). And then my right knee hasn't been much better - ever since I hiked Diamond Head this summer!! :shakehead:

Good thing I don't play sports for a living (or maybe not - cause I could probably afford the most expensive healthcare and all of those specialized surgeries)
