Don't get me wrong, I know you have the best intentions... but as a challenge, I'll believe it when I see it!

That's fine, but if you can, let me know as far in advance as possible. I work a rotating shift (change shifts every 8 weeks), and I'm not always sure what my days off will be for each particular watch rotation.
I'm thinking during June I'll be on the day shift, and in July I should be on the graveyard shift. But if give me plenty of advance notice, I can arrange to have the day/night off.

I LOVE IT! The Sox/Yanks trash talk is already in high gear. First you have the Nixon/Arod stuff then you got the whole WS Ring fiasco. And all pleayers havent even shown up for spring training yet... this is going to be an amazing season.

Sorry guys. It's not that I don't like the Cubs, they are probably my 2nd favorite team. But. they have lost too much offense and Burnitz isn't the answer. Look for my first favorite team, the much improoved Reds, to take the Central Crown. Wishful thinking perhaps, but no more wishful thinking than the Cubs.

Most improooved, or most injured?

Reds have an injury-prone team. The pitching is supposedly improved, but the major improvement, Eric Milton, gave up 45 HRs last year!!!! And the Reds don't exactly play in a pitchers park...

You do realize that the Cubs only have 1/2 the number of World Series titles as the mighty Tigers right?
