  1. And no letting up tonight. Up 5-2 in the third against Florida. They knocked Luongo, who they always seem to struggle against, out after two periods. Man, not to jinx them, but they are starting to look scary good.  The fact that if they do trade for Prospal, he would be relegated to the power play only shows you how strong they are on offense. And I guess Dingman wanted to prove they not just a finesse team, getting into two fights in the first six minutes of the third period.

    15 straight without losing in regulation (12-0-1-2)

  2. Wow, what and ending. The Devils really dominated most of this game, but the BOLTS come up big when it counts. Pulled the goalie, tied the game with 9 seconds left and then won it a few minutes into OT. Great game, especially in playoff type atmosphere. Just awesome. Tops in the East and currently tops in the NHL. ;D

  3. I have to agree with Smazza on this issue.  Andro was legal (it might still be now?) when McGwire was using it. Do we dismiss all the HRs then also. And where do we draw the line. Creatine is a performance enhancer. Ephedra/Caffeine pills are performance enhancers, and according to some ML's, about 90% of ballplayers take these.

    None of these help you hit a curveball.

    I think the fact that players have a penchant to swing for the fences more now is the real culprit. Look at some of these players K totals. They're obscene. Players now dont care about striking out, and could care less if they hit .300. They're just worried about hitting HR's.

  4. Ive read the same TripleB. Im not even sure if the Bolts need Prospal. They already have one of the most dangerous and exciting offenses in the NHL and filled their only real weakness when they acquired Sydor. Now if they are able to bring Vinny P back without giving up anyone of the current roster, then it wouldnt be bad.

  5. They are straight rolling.  I believe they are something like 20-2-1-4 since the beginning of January.  Melrose was pimpin the BOLTS like crazy on NHL tonight after the game. They are the only team in the NHL with 5 20-goal scorers and have the likely MVP (Hart trophy winner I believe) in Martin St. Louis, who by the way became the first player since Gretzky to win back to back offensive player of the month awards.  There are even teams that are starting to copy the BOLTS stretch offense, which will be a welcome change from everyone copying the the Devils boring trap. ;D

  6. I dont think the DRays pitching is that bad off either. Gonzalez and Zambrano are both underrated, Waechter could be a star in the making, and I think Damian Moss may be a huge pickup. I think there youngsters on the mound (Waechter, Standridge, Brazelton) will all be solid contributors this year. I dont think a third place finish is out of the question. The Jays have a pretty strong staff but lack offense outside of Vernon Wells and Delgado. The Orioles signed an overrated Javy Lopez and Sidney Ponson (if he was that good the Giants would have held on to him) and have a pitching staff not much better if not worse than the Rays.

  7. Why is it that Derrick Brooks at 6'1" and 235 lbs isnt on steriods and is just a good athlete, while Bonds at 6'2" and 230 lbs is on steriods?

    To even further that, why is it that any ballplayer that gets himself into peak physical condition is on steriods despite the fact that even the biggest baseball players would be nothing more than a smallish linebacker in football.

  8. I dont believe Bonds was on them either. People like to point to his physical stature back when he was a Pirate versus now. Bonds left the Pirates back in the early 90's though (at about 190lb). You're talking about almost ten years for him to bulk up. He didnt just transform himself over night.
