the "baseball only" thread

For all of you Angels fans (I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one here 😛) check this out: What's in a name? A lot if you're an Angel

Thanks for the link, Alex. To me they're still the Anaheim Angels. 😀

 

[amk714]

I have taken to simply calling them the Angels. 😛

 

[milagros317]

On occasion, I refer to the "Brooklyn Dodgers, currently playing in Los Angeles." 😛

 

[amk714]

Fair enough, but just calling them the Dodgers would be much easier. 😛

Thanks for the link, Alex. To me they're still the Anaheim Angels. 😀

And yet to me they will always be the California Angels. 🙄

 

[amk714]

And yet to me they will always be the California Angels. 🙄

That would be fine by me, actually. But I'll NEVER call them the L.A. Angels or the Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim. 😀

I can understand that. The Los Angels Angels of Anaheim California. Good thing they wear uniforms and not ID braclets. It would definately break their wrists.

I know. If one of them was injured and had to be hospitalized ...

Congratulations to Bruce Sutter, newly elected to the Hall of Fame. 😀

Congratulations to Bruce Sutter, newly elected to the Hall of Fame. 😀

Agreed. He should have been honored with this 10 years ago. His split-fingered fastball revolutionized the game. Plus he was a pitcher who still pitched 2 and 3 innings to earn a save. This is a great honor and he is VERY deserving of that honor. 🙂

Now I just hope that Eric Gagne comes back healthy some time during the 2006 season. 😀

Nice signing of Furcal who is undergoing surgery on his knee ( I believe ). Sounds like you are not going to start the season healthy. When are you going to Vero Beach,Florida this year Mils?

 

[milagros317]

The week of March 11 to 18. 😀

Are you going to watch to Mets play the Dodgers on March 17th at 7pm?

 

[leafstk]

The Jays are gonna kick ass this year! 😀

 

[amk714]

The Jays are gonna kick ass this year! 😀

So are the Angels, I hope.

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

The Jays are gonna kick ass this year! 😀

Do you realize that you have a 3 game set against the Mets this year? Do you also realize your Blue Jays have NEVER won a game against the Mets in the 9 games we have played you? I hope Toronto has a GREAT season but I also hope we beat you 3 more games this season.

 

[milagros317]

Are you going to watch to Mets play the Dodgers on March 17th at 7pm?

Yes, I will. 😀

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

Yes, I will. 😀

Well I certainly hope you win on March 17th because I don't want you to win when it counts.

 

[milagros317]

I agree that spring training games don't count. 😀

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

I agree that spring training games don't count. 😀

I just knew you would. But Mils, stay healthy. 😎

 

[milagros317]

Individual game tickets for Dodgers spring training games go on sale one week from today. 😀

 

[ticklingfeet4fu]

Well it is only 37 days til spring training games and only 71 days until Opening Day!!! So who does your team play opening day?

 

[milagros317]

It depends who is healthy at the end of spring training. We have many fragile players. 🙁
