5/7/2009 9:05:14 PM

didnt see it then, felt it was thread worthy

5/7/2009 10:28:53 PM

yeah we played it at ruckus a couple weeks back. held about 30 people's attention for the duration. good stuff.

180 lbs to record setting homerun derby all star weekend ... fresh

GOOD FOR HIM! HE SNITCHED ON A DRUG DEALER I KNEW AFTER HE GOT BUSTED FOR COKE POSSESSION... BUT THAT GUY WAS A DOUCHE ANYWAY.

5/8/2009 10:06:15 AM

^You say that like snitching on drug dealers is somehow a bad thing.

5/8/2009 10:11:35 AM

WELL, HE GOT BUSTED FIRST WITH A GOOD AMOUNT, BUT NO, I DON'T THINK IT WAS A BAD THING. THEY WERE BOTH LOSERS AT THE TIME. NOW THE LOSER IS THE ONE STILL DEALING DRUGS.

5/8/2009 10:16:01 AM

thats what you get for doing drugs. ha fuck him.

5/8/2009 12:07:38 PM

I don't know if anyone has been noticing, but he is throwing himself in the ring for AL MVP this year. If not for Robbie Cano's amazing year he'd be right in the thick of it for the AL Triple Crown.

.326, 16 HR, 50 RBI right now and is absolutely raking everything in sight.

.337 16 HR 52 RBI after yesterday. Good guy to have on your fantasy team.

6/21/2010 6:47:42 AM

^^the kid was ripped in high school too.

6/21/2010 12:20:36 PM

Not muscular big but lanky. He fillled out.

6/21/2010 4:41:06 PM

I got to go hang out with him and his family a few weeks ago and watch a couple games. They are a lot of fun to be around. I got to meet most of the guys on the team and was surprised at how normal they all are.

6/21/2010 10:12:11 PM

dude is awesome. one of the few pro athletes i actively track.

6/22/2010 4:28:39 PM

I should have taken more pics while I was there. I just kind of hung out before the game in the dugout and talked to the security guard and some field guys. Here is a pic of the cubs taking BP.

6/22/2010 6:43:37 PM

i love that stadium. got to see em last year, but Hamilton was still out injured. he came back the following game.

lol fail

reminds me of earlier this year when i bought tickets to one of the charlotte/syracuse AAA games about a month before it was played...i wouldve gotten to see strasburg pitch if Washington had kept him in the minors an extra 5 days

6/22/2010 7:47:31 PM

what sucks really bad is that I just happened to be in Dallas w/ my fiance, visiting her sisters, and aunt. On a whim, we decided to go to the game that night, and ESPN was reporting that Hamilton was probably gonna return that night. at gametime, they decided to not play him yet.

no need to risk injury and ruin a great season. my boy needs a contract!

6/23/2010 7:00:19 PM

6/28/2010 1:22:56 AM

Classy.

6/28/2010 4:57:25 AM

I was like "that's some weird looking coke" for about a few seconds. haha

6/28/2010 7:01:25 AM

I'm more disturbed that he is wearing a tarhole hat.

6/28/2010 7:36:38 AM

That pic is from Jan 09

6/28/2010 9:23:18 AM

there's no appropriate time and date to be wearing that shit.

"Hamilton was June's AL player of the month after leading the majors in average (.454), RBIs (31), hits (49) and slugging percentage (.815)."

He is now 2nd in the league in batting average (.342)

Tied for 1st in home runs (21)

5th in RBIs (62)

2nd in slugging (.621)


The way he's hitting, he's a decent candidate for the triple crown, and a favorite for the AL MVP. But he'll probably slow down after the break, like he did in 2008.

7/7/2010 1:56:47 AM

It would suck to be a recovering/recovered alcoholic/addict where getting drunk one time is considered a big deal.

7/7/2010 3:41:43 AM

29 game hitting streak to an end.

7/11/2010 5:08:53 AM

It was 23, and it ended last week

still fucking awesome though.

7/11/2010 11:55:30 AM

29 home game hitting streak ended last night though

7/11/2010 12:03:36 PM

aaaaahhhh..i see

dude is the best player in the game right now, IMO.

7/11/2010 12:07:57 PM

i really thought pulhols was gonna take off but josh is just nasty.

7/11/2010 6:56:44 PM

if you go to Puhols' espn.com profile, it says you pronounce his name "poo-Holes"

lol

7/11/2010 10:39:32 PM

we are going to baltimore to watch them play. i hope they do a little better than they did against them this weekend

7/11/2010 11:05:00 PM

^^didnt mean to put the first L

7/11/2010 11:27:55 PM

It's odd to think that as good as Pujols is he's probably been the fourth best offensive first baseman this year (Votto, Cabrera, Morneau being better). Cabrera has probably been the best offensive player in the league this year just a bit ahead of Josh.

7/12/2010 9:49:04 AM

He's batting .353 right now, tops in baseball, along with 22 homers and 67 RBI.

He has batted something like .440 over the last 2 months, while hitting with a ton of power. That is simply insane. Texas has rested him periodically because he's getting sore from running so many bases.

I doubt he can keep that up, but if he does, he will surpass Cabrera and be the obvious choice for AL MVP.

7/20/2010 2:09:54 AM

Didn't help that Feldman gave Cabrera 2 HRs yesterday with his terrible excuse for pitching.

7/20/2010 7:32:19 AM

Of course I would be away from a radio 10 mins before he comes on. Can someone post me a link of the david glen interview.

7/21/2010 2:32:37 PM

3-3 with 3 RBIs through 5 tonight. Every time I check a box score this guy is getting 2 or 3 hits. Absolutely unbelievable two months from him. He's got to be the MVP leader, Miggy be damned. And with all the injuries, I bet the Tigers fade anyway...

[Edited on July 25, 2010 at 9:42 PM. Reason : actually, cabrera has really amazing numbers too, but fuck him. i hate him.]

7/25/2010 9:38:36 PM

By yesterday's stats, Cabrera is ahead in everything but batting average, by four points. More wins for Texas, but Cabrera is having the more amazing of two amazing seasons right now.

7/25/2010 9:48:44 PM

I am going to watch him play Seattle next week.

7/25/2010 10:19:51 PM

Set this kid up for AL MVP
