The motivational poster fanpost by Zoe Necrosis (LINK TO 2008 FanPost) last year was one of the greatest posts in HH of all time. In order to celebrate our ALDS sweep, I think it would be fitting to do that again. I still can't believe we haven't made this an annual thing. I don't want to make this post very long, so I will start by posting my posters in the comment section. So, here it goes...... (P.S. - Thank you to ReggieBullits and opiejeanne for two of the pics :)

Whether his nickname is S-Rod or Sean the Baptist, I can't realistically believe that Sean will ever be a "good" Major league ballplayer. Why? Well, his stats ( except HRs) are not off the charts in a poor man's Coors down in SLC, and he Ks WAY too much. While some optimists may say that he needs to adjust to major league pitching, I beg to differ. He's had +150 ABs up here and, like what he's done in the minors, he has 58 strikeouts. If you were to pace him with 550 at-bats, which is what a usual hitter gets, Sean will get 183 strikeouts in a season, which is a bad number to have. 

It may seem I'm so impatient with Brandon's sidekick, but in reality, players don't gain as much tremendous skill as they do when they're younger. Sean is 24 and usually players don't explode with talent after that. There ARE a big chunk of stars today that have done that, but sorry, he doesn't fit that mold to me.  All in all, this part of my arguement can either make me seem like a genius or a doofus to you, as a player's prime depends totally on work ethic over the offseason.

So, as I wrap this up, I'll make a prediction for Sean. He averages around .255 a year if Soth plays him as a regular. He hits 18 out per year with 65 RBI and 46 BBs. The worst part would be his team high 168 Ks. The guy will have average defense and his baserunning stats will be nothing to write home about. He is put in the 6th or 7th hole, with a substantial abount of at bats. I am ready for S-Rod lovers to pelt me rocks........

BTW, it's on Versus.

Are you serious? Any starter, Dustin Moseley, has been sent to the DL. Another pitcher hurt. So let's see: 4 pitchers on the DL, and one, well, you know what happened. Anyway, I have never seen so many pitchers hurt at the same start.

Another dumb thing is that when Mose was sent with Vlad to the DL, Soth chose to pick Rick Thompson and....Dan Davidson? WTH? Maybe Wood has some sort of cancer, 'cause Wood is on FIRE, and you don't bring him up? So let me do the math: You send one hitter and one pitcher to the DL, and you get back two pitchers? In addition, the Angels have already been struggling?

Feel free to comment on this outrageous decision by Soth.

After the tragic loss of Nick Adenhart, my face is covered with tears. He was a great talent, and didn't give up after having a so-so season last year. He will always be remembered in the hearts of every baseball fan. As Torii said, Nick will still a kid, and he had a great career ahead of him.

Being a great person, Nick would probably want  us to finish the season and win the World Series. No problem can bring us down in moments like these. Once a door closes, another one opens. Maybe in the most obscure way God is trying to tell us another opportunity for happiness is available. My heart goes out for Jim and Janet, his parents.

After  you read this post, I want you to remember one thing: in times of desperation, make an extra push for Nick. Do that garbage in honor of him, work with more dedication, or play catch with your son instead of sleeping.Nick always sacrificed himself to help others. What I'm trying to say is life is too short. Make the extra burst every day because you know Nick is looking down on us from heaven.

I'm dedicating 2009 to Nicholas James Adenhart!

As spring training comes to an end, I have read countless amounts of negative crap about the Angels.

• What if the starters don't come back soon?
• What if Abreu has a horrible season?
• What if Oakland gets it together and beats us?

Well, let me tell you, why don't people doubt the A's? I have many what ifs for Choakland...

• What if Holliday gets injured?
• What if Giambi and O-Cab don't produce?
• What if their so-called studs Gio Gonzalez and Brett Anderson become duds?

These possibilities are solid for three reasons:

1. Holliday has been to the DL multiple times
2. Giambi and OC are definitely past their primes
3. These rookies have little or no experience.

So, even if ALL the " what ifs" happen for both teams, the Angels would still have a better team. Our lineup would be better as Holliday, Giambi, and Cabrera make most of their offense. Their bullpen would have to rely on Ziegler, and their rotation may have to rely on young inexperienced pitchers.

Now to the Angels.

Worst case scenario: Big Thunder, Voodoo, and Esco are all way behind of schedule. Now here comes the offense. I'm not as optimistic as some, but I know something that will make acuda27 VERY happy: Kendry Morales can rake! Some people just look like ballplayers, and Kendry is definitely looks like one. His swing is beautiful, and he squares the ball with ease.

So at worst, our offense will not be much worse than last September's lineup. In other words, prospects in addition to Bobby Abreu will fill in the holes.

If you disagree with me, feel free to express yourself. Last but not least, let's go Halos!

Being in red floyd's bracket in yahoo, I'm what predictions you guys have. Ionder who your picks were after the first round 

Champion 1 Louisville  16 AL St./Morehead St.  8 Ohio St.  9 Siena  5 Utah  12 Arizona  4 Wake Forest  13 Cleveland St.  6 West Virginia  11 Dayton  3 Kansas  14 N Dakota St.  7 Boston Coll.  10 USC  2 Michigan St.  15 Robert Morris  1 Connecticut  16 Chattanooga  8 BYU  9 Texas A&M  5 Purdue  12 Northern Iowa  4 Washington  13 Mississippi St.  6 Marquette  11 Utah St.  3 Missouri  14 Cornell  7 California  10 Maryland  2 Memphis  15 CSU Northridge  1 Pittsburgh  16 E. Tennessee St.  8 Oklahoma St.  9 Tennessee  5 Florida St.  12 Wisconsin  4 Xavier  13 Portland St.  6 UCLA  11 VCU  3 Villanova  14 American  7 Texas  10 Minnesota  2 Duke  15 Binghamton  1 North Carolina  16 Radford  8 LSU  9 Butler  5 Illinois  12 West. Kentucky  4 Gonzaga  13 Akron  6 Arizona St.  11 Temple  3 Syracuse  14 Stephen F. Austin  7 Clemson  10 Michigan  2 Oklahoma  15 Morgan St.  1 Louisville  9 Siena  12 Arizona  4 Wake Forest  6 West Virginia  3 Kansas  10 USC  2 Michigan St.  1 Connecticut  9 Texas A&M  5 Purdue  4 Washington  6 Marquette  3 Missouri  7 California  2 Memphis  1 Pittsburgh  8 Oklahoma St.  5 Florida St.  4 Xavier  6 UCLA  3 Villanova  10 Minnesota  2 Duke  1 North Carolina  9 Butler  5 Illinois  4 Gonzaga  6 Arizona St.  3 Syracuse  10 Michigan  2 Oklahoma  1 Louisville  12 Arizona  3 Kansas  2 Michigan St.  1 Connecticut  4 Washington  3 Missouri  2 Memphis  1 Pittsburgh  5 Florida St.  6 UCLA  2 Duke  1 North Carolina  4 Gonzaga  6 Arizona St.  2 Oklahoma  1 Louisville  3 Kansas  4 Washington  2 Memphis  1 Pittsburgh  2 Duke  1 North Carolina  2 Oklahoma  1 Louisville  2 Memphis  1 Pittsburgh  2 Oklahoma  2 Memphis  1 Pittsburgh  1 Pittsburgh Midwest
 

Sorry guys, it came out bad, anyway, a summary can be : No surprise Louisville wins Midwest, Washington surprises Uconn in the west, but Memphis ranked supreme. Pitt beats Duke in the East, and Oklahoma beats North Carolina. Memphis beats Louisville to go to the Final Four, and Pitt beats Oklahoma. Pitt wins the title! ( Dicky V screams, " Hooters anyone?")

With my fantasy draft in around 30 minutes, I need help. Not being a great drafter, I need a lot of help. Who to get in early rounds? please help me.  2nd season of fantasy draft and didn't do so well lst year. Update: going to have round by round updates. please review picks

For those like me wanting to watch the Game 7 of the  '02 World Series , here's your chance . Mlb.com/live will air it on Thursday at 8 am pt. Watch and relive ! I just might shed a tear at the end. This is a great game and to not make the same mistake, i will clear out everything for this. Go Halos! Have a nice year guys and may the Yankees and Sux melt in the fiery depths of hell!

           Well, I'd wouldn't have withdrawn that offer. But, that isn't that important. Not getting Tex is a huge disappointment to me, but what's next? Like I said, if I were GM or owner of the Halos, I'd try to stabalize  the bullpen with the loss of Frankie. I personally want Fuentes as he is a bargain in my eye. He would closer as Dondo is only a second year player, so I'm not completely sure. Next, I'd want to sign Manny. I've heard remarks such as " he isn't a team player" to "look at the mess he caused in Boston", but  who can blame him? It's Boston, not a very nice city. Manny is definitely a top ten hitter of all time. And he doesn't have to field every day. He can DH when Vlad plays outfield and if other starters have a day off. We could sign Dunn, but seeing more Ks is definitely frustrating. Ahhh, the steam in my head as I write this is building up. Manny is worth more than Tex as he is a legendary hitter, so maybe 23 mil a year for three? I wish we had gotten Tex......
