    Good call.

    I'd say there's a 70% chance we pick up all 3 of them.

    Damn, what an infield! I can't wait until ST! The bottom of the lineup is just stacked!

    Twiggy is more stacked than the back end of our lineup. Even if they have a good year by their standards they won't hit 240.

    Although we will not feel the direct result of this (unless we have some jerk off interleague games with KC), I have a bad feeling about Broxton moving on...I know what he did, or didn't do with us...I know, I know.
    But there is a disturbance in the Force on this one.

    I get the shit out of this....and although the Twigster has a little more sweater meat than in the day, the lineup has not.
    This is why I wonder why people defend Ned about shoring up the lineup defensively, or defensive back up moves, etc., when the bench is about as powerful as the Swiss Navy.
    A bona fide PH power threat off the bench would mean so much...

    Just wait my friend just wait. At some point our roster will be set as will the major league payroll number with all of the people not with us still being paid. When that happens any shred of thought that Ned is competent will be gone. I post it and post it. But take the amount of money oh hell let me do it now.

    Players not with us anymore- 22 million
    Lilly and Uribe- 20 million
    Kemp and Eitheir- 22 million(12 million estimate arbitration for Eithier

    That is 66 million with all us having to show for it is Kemp, Dre, Lilly and Uribe. Is that really a good position to be in? This is the cumulative financial toll of Neds deferring salary. Now in his defense Frank may have been calling that shot. My dreaded fear is that we will be slashing payroll and along with Bills, Kershaw and Loney we may be over what we have to slash down to.

    Do you remember the film with Robin Williams called "Club Paradise"? It was a funny early Williams film....lots of Second City TV people in it; anyway, his girlfriend in that was Twiggy. Nice face.

    Twiggy was hot and gave thin woman a role model to aspire to. I hated her breast enhancement or what ever. But I mean thinking about her in one of those short dresses makes one want to pound the living hell out of her. I confess I did lust after Twiggy back in the day.

    Yeah, check it out. You won't be disappointed. Not only the ones I mentioned are in it, but also Peter o'Toole, Joanna Cassidy (a replicant in Blade Runner) and one of my favorite actors of all time, who died too soon and didn't make nearly enough films, Adolph Cesar.
    The whole film is just laughing from beginning to end
    Hilarious ganja sequence in it, too, with Harold Ramis and Rick Moranis.

    Damn she was beautiful. I forgot just how pretty the little Cockney was...she was a phenomenon, no doubt. She sold millions of mini skirts.
    Still looks really good now, too.
    She was on the Graham Norton show...something else yall' should check out. Best comedy interview show ever. Great guests; last week on a show: Ricky Gervais, Stephen Merchant, Johnny Depp, some way hot Limey chick with a micro mini, and a cool group. Great TV.
