Not right yet! And I thought this might me an easy one!

Let me know when you all want a hint.

Gold Knight · Post by **Gold Knight** » Wed Sep 12, 2007 9:48 pm

HA!

New question:
Who was the MVP of the 2002 World Series, and why, given current events, is this not a fundamentally irrelevant question?
Bonus: who was the winning pitcher in Game 7?
Double bonus: list ten reasons why Dusty Baker is a dipshit

Cheesemore · Post by **Cheesemore** » Thu Sep 13, 2007 9:06 pm

Troy Glaus? and was it because he was linked to HGH or something?
I'll guess John Lackey
1) He managed the Cubs
2) He managed the Cubs
3) He managed the Cubs
4) He managed the Cubs
5) Let his kid be a bat boy and he was almost trampled
6) He managed the Cubs
7) He managed the Cubs
8 ) He defended Barry Bonds
9) He managed the Cubs
10) did I mention He managed the Cubs?

You forgot:
11) has no idea how to manage a bullpen
12) overworked Kerry Wood
13) overworked Mark Prior
14) gave Russ Ortiz the game ball in the seventh fucking inning

Actually, strike that last one. That fired the Angels up. You should have seen me at the bar that night. For the first seven innings, people were afraid to come within twenty feet of me. When Spiezio hit the home run to make it 5-3, people started approaching, and when Glaus put the Halos up to stay, I was the happiest guy on the planet and buying drinks for people with reckless abandon.

It's too bad about Glaus, tho. He's always been one of my all-time favorite players (if for no other reason than for the priceless sight gag of the 6'5" Glaus standing next to the 5'6" Eckstein during warmups), and this whole HGH thing leaves a bad taste in my mouth.

Well done, Cheesemore. You're up.

i know this answer b/c me and incan tend to read the same shit on ESPN, it's kinda eerie....it was troy glaus, and it's relevant b/c he may have been on the juice at the time....

i don't remember the winning pitcher, all i remember is the rally monkey....i will state for the record that the angels and the bosox are my favorite AL teams....i'll guess brendan donelly tho.....

2Xbonus: dusty is a loser b/c his in game management is atrocious. he may be a great motivator/player's manager, but w/in the game he can't even hang w/ the most inane AL checkers players. he somehow managed to overwork both his rotation and his bullpen in the heyday of the giants. the real issue is: how did the cubs manage to hire him? i guess there's a corollary to the 90+ year losing streak.....

will that do? and what do i get for any bonuses?

Cheesemore · Post by **Cheesemore** » Fri Sep 14, 2007 3:29 pm

Allright, back to Ryan Braun (The real Brewers MVP) Over last weekend I believe he hit his 30th Home run of the season (combined with his Minor League numbers, about 42) he's again the second fastest player to hit 30 home runs in his carrer, Who is the fastest? (hint it isn't Albert this time)

Gold Knight · Post by **Gold Knight** » Fri Sep 14, 2007 11:16 pm

Ryan Howard?

Nephilim · Post by **Nephilim** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 9:59 am

i don't know how i managed to get fast-posted by 2 hours in my last post.....i must've been drunk again.....

lol, how much gayer can you get than a "fastest to 30 home runs" question??? what if he turns into pat burrell? can't hit a slider......

i guess pat burrell

LSU Tiger Josh · Post by **LSU Tiger Josh** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 10:51 am

Guess 1: Griffey Jr.
Guess 2: A-Rod

If either of these is right someone else can take the next question as I"m leaving to go tailgate now.

Cheesemore · Post by **Cheesemore** » Sat Sep 15, 2007 11:47 am

Nope sorry none are right, another hint was, he was guessed the last time I did a question like this

S'okay... I'd say somewhere between 33-40% of my posts on this site are written when I'm at least halfway into the bag.

Alright, first question for me in a while:

Before Hurricane Katrina, the Superdome in NO, Loiusiana hosted a Superbowl. Name which year(or Superbowl) the last Superbowl was played there and the two teams that played.

Bonus: Who won, and what was the final score.
