The Rev vs Biggsy Game Thread...
The Rev and Halos Heaven, will be going multi-media on THE BIGS with Jeff Biggs radio show tonight on AM 830 KLAA (the home of Angels Baseball).
Rumour has it that the Rev is bringing some transparencies, graphs, pie charts, etc...
Please feel free to give Jeff and The Rev a call tonight at (877) 883-0830
The show starts at 7 pm and ends at 10 pm PST.
If you are out of the audio reach of KLAA AM 830, there is a "Click Here to Listen" button in the upper right corner of this LINK TO LIVE INTERNET AUDIO page.
So tune in TONIGHT!
Picks: Starts with The Rev on the air:
Will Mark Teixeira be mentioned with in the first five minutes?
Will Darby make it on air?
Will there be any mention of the WBC?
Good Luck

makes you wonder why rory bashed so much around here
recognized by his peers for his good work. i’ve always enjoyed his play by play.
rory bashed?
i dont think i’ve ever seen that here
Kotch would've had that.

for sure
although i don’t really understand the phyzz hate either… to each his own, i guess.
Kotch would've had that.

Way to start off the show
a bunch of nacho munching Lakers fans. How will Rev Halofan follow this?

Is there hatred for the Lakers in this room?
Or hatred for Lakers talk? I hate the latter because it seems thats all that LA sports talk radio talks about anymore, and with the fox sports buyout i expect it even more.
But I could see how it could be difficult to fill 3 hours of broadcast with strictly Angels coverage when spring training hasnt even started yet.
The air kind of went out of Angels talk after the Teixeira disappointment.

I honestly never expected Teix to resign
So not a huge disappointment for me. Knew it would always be the yankees or red sox. Until something changes in baseball, thats how its gonna be.
besides Mel, anyway
Kotch would've had that.

Happy Chinese New Year
did we sign a chinese pitcher?

Would we be having the inverse discussion if Sean Rodriguez had a terrible postseason?
Hindsight is always 20-20. You go with your go-to-guys in the playoffs.
he probably did it on purpose
Kotch would've had that.

Rev's big on Wood
ha!
okay, sorry i had to.
and what’s wrong with Torii batting 2nd?
Kotch would've had that.
Ah yes, the rotating DH
Do any other teams do that as much?
I don't know...I'm makin' this up as I go.
Vlad if he's re-signed
Kotch would've had that.

I knew Rev would start speculating about the bad economy and how it
could affect baseball.

he knows not
to whom he speaks

But Speier sucks at pitching.
Recipient of the 2008 "The Iron Man" award from scottnak of Halos Heaven!
amen.
but only when the Black Hole (aka GMJ) comes back in May

Wood, Morales, and S-Rod are going to have huge seasons
Welcome…to Fantasy Island!
I don't know...I'm makin' this up as I go.
That guy's optimism was annoying.
Recipient of the 2008 "The Iron Man" award from scottnak of Halos Heaven!
Woody is due for a break-out or bust. I like to think positively.
But no one knows for sure.
K-Mo with at least Kotch like numbers, which arent great, would be fine.
S-Rod will be warming the bench.
Dammit!
Every time Rev mentions the economy I have to take a shot.
I don't know...I'm makin' this up as I go.
getting buzzed yet?
Kotch would've had that.

Ypu will know when the economy is bad when Arte Moreno has to start passing
out hot dogs to fans rather than trying to sell them.

that was the way it worked
last time.

give the guy a break
he’s clearly nervous about speaking with the Rev

We can't afford to trade any starting pitchers!

did we learn nothing from this past season?

I learned Jon Garland is not that good a pitcher really.

it could've been MUCH worse
i.e. Moseley or Adenhart for a full year

Teixeira made his slow start in the playoffs.

yeah that 1.000+ OPS
sucked.

Which is why we should have snatched Holliday before the A's did.

average outside of Coors
at best, maybe barely above average.

if Vlad didn’t have to DH, i think we’d have gone after him.

Conspiracy theory:

Peavy, there is still the slimmest of chances.
Recipient of the 2008 "The Iron Man" award from scottnak of Halos Heaven!
pitching is not the Angels' problem
Tons of questions in the lineup, though. Howie? Hopefully. Wood? Maybe. Morales? Perhaps. Aybar? Who knows.
Who is going to provide power? Napoli? Rivera? Morales? I’d love to see it, but it’s clearly risky.
The point is, the Angels don’t have a reliable, proven hitter beyond Vlad and Torii.
Napoli, but you know they will split him with Mathis so he probably won't
play that much more than last year.

that's what she said...

why can't we get the boards...
i understand the lack of offense, but the boards?
"why do you we still have quitlin?" -VladdyG
Lost top 4 rebounders to draft and graduation (Mata, Love, Luc, Westbrook)
Nikola is a good scorer but terrible rebounder. And Keefe grabs the boards but doesnt score well at all. Aboya also isnt too great on the boards. Theres just no one there.
I had to find some primary sources from their library and that Alarm concert
"why do you we still have quitlin?" -VladdyG
When the season starts, we should start a new meme,
“Who’s going to break out?”
“Is he breaking out?”
“It’s time for somebody to break out!”
“He hit a homerun, he’s breaking out!”

Thank you Rev for making this diatribe against the whiny Angel culture
But it comes with the winning i guess.
Nah, that was a Bull Durham reference
I’m surprised it was missed.
I was uncool before uncool was cool.
I could only catch the show for about five minutes
Shortly before and after lackey41. The impression I came away with is: Gee, the Rev is much nicer on the radio than he is on his blog :)
Angel Pitching, Angel Defense - get past that.
Great show
Got drunk though and had to leave early…woke up with the Economy dry heaves.
I don't know...I'm makin' this up as I go.
