Where did you read this one? No offense but this sounds made up.

They played together in 2004 & 2005. So it's possible they are friends.

Isnt Florida or Tampa Bay rank higher like arent they the youngest?
Florida isn't ranked higher because Troy Percival is 119 years old.

Percival plays for Tampa.  Luis Gonzalez probably skews their team age, though.

Tampa has Hinske and Floyd too. We are really doing well in the youth department.

The worst team in the league better be the youngest.

It's 2 games in, for freak's sakes.  Remember how this team started off 3-0?  "We have offense!"  lmfao

Let's not get ahead of ourselves.

at least this team gives me a reason to watch and shows a little emotion. did you see bonifcio, gonzalez, and milledge all feeding off of one another? even the "vets" like kearns and orr and harris had a little more pop in their bat.

Ha, you're right. taken out of context, that is classic AZ.

But his would be all about dukes and his amazing hustle on a routine DP ball that was booted. (we were so lucky there, damn)

I know.  I'm talking about sportsfan.  You know him.  Five days later, they'll be on a losing streak and he'll be going, "Pathetic.  I should've known that Acta/Harris would kill this team's buzz sooner than later.  FIRE THOSE TWO MOTHER freakERS!!!"

I'm certainly enjoying this, but I don't expect it to last.

You're the one who dogged the Bonifacio-Rauch trade to no end despite not even seeing Bonifacio play. That's pathetic.

People on the Wiz board did a similar thing when the Wiz took JaVale McGee with this year's 1st round pick. They ripped that kid apart and claimed him a bust before he even played. If that kid ever pans out every single one of those freakers should be banned from the board for good.

I ultimate had a wait-and-see attitude about Bonifacio.

I still do.

I thought it was a bad trade in that they didn't get the best return they could have.  I would've liked a prospect with a higher ceiling.

Nothing can compare to how reactionary you are.

I said before that this trade had to be perfect for Emilio, he was buried in Arizona (almost said AZ :lol:), and he's a starter here. That'll get you fired up.
