  1. milton bradley and 2 ptbnl should be enough.
  2. Not even in the conversation. don't respond to him, he posts crap like this all the time.
  3. i dunno, these bowls have a gravy train going right now, they'd be stupid to shun boise state (who beat oregon, who completely rolled usc) and take an unimpressive three-loss usc team. that's the sort of thing that gets people's ire up and you end up with protests and congressional investigations and crap. just take a high-profile team and boise st, you'll do fine.
  4. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/columns/story?columnist=stark_jayson&page=rumblings091119&campaign=rss&source=MLBHeadlines ](*,) I really hope expectations don't reach these irrational levels. I can see Starlin coming up, putting up decent numbers as a 20-21 year old and getting panned because he's not Hanley Ramirez, getting booed because he's not living up to the hype and finally getting sent out of town. it's really up to the cubs. dustin pedroia was lousy after being called up in 2006 and was really bad in his first month in 2007, but the red sox - being an intelligent, well-run organization - trusted their scouts and stuck with him, and he ended up hitting really well that year. if the cubs believe castro is ready and call him up, they need to stick with him regardless of whether he struggles for a week or a month. they can't do what they did with pie and pull the plug after a string of 4 bad games.
  5. this thread is skyballing downhill in a hurry.
  6. uga vii headed to doggie heaven
  7. y'all is a shortening of "you all"... "mineaswell" is a nonsense "word" that you and nobody else uses in place of "might as well"
  8. still not even close to being a word.
  9. Oops apparently it's hard to win when you shoot 30% and the other team shoots 57%.
  10. they will have to move somebody at some point. the key is having guys who perform up to the level of their contract. nobody was going to take danny briere's contract off the flyers hands, but joffrey lupul was reasonably priced at around $4M per year so the flyers were able to swing him to anaheim so they could take on pronger's contract.
  11. revoke their voting rights.
  12. they're going to miss dante cunningham more than people think. those guard-heavy teams always need a solid big guy to do the dirty work down low.
  13. bahahaha
  14. castro is 0-2 (pair of ground outs) and vitters is 1-2 (double). i noticed that castro has just 1 error in 25 games. i know he has DH'ed a few games, but that's still very impressive. EDIT - the inning after i post that he makes a throwing error... hahaha
  15. http://www.theonion.com/content/news_briefs/eagles_settle_for_field
  16. lincecum wins with 100 points, carpenter had 94 points and waino had 90.
  17. pick two rb's and a flex: s. jackson vs ariz m. forte vs philly m. sims-walker vs buff t. hightower @ stl k. smith vs cle m. barber vs wash
  18. looks great... can't wait to go.
  19. p.s. the kings' 2 minute 5-on-3 was complete horse [expletive] as was the lack of a call when dan carcillo got cross checked face first into the boards. nhl officiating is such a pile of crap.
  20. russell wasn't terrible last year but man has he been wretched this season.
  21. lol
  22. fuckin stevens. played a real solid road game for 2 periods, giving up only 18 shots, then got a 2 goal lead in the 3rd and then sat back and came inches from giving up the lead (21 shots allowed in the 3rd). this [expletive] has to stop.
  23. yes 14 good innings in mexico, call this guy up!
