  1. (a) are you referring to carlos zambrano? (b) if so, i hope you're joking
  2. kudos to the nhl for giving chris simon a 30 game suspension. first of all, he's a piece of crap. and in addition to that, the was not seriously hurt. I hate how suspensions seem to be tied to length of injury.
  3. 32 Boise State 31 Cincy 30 USC 29 Purdont 28 Oklahoma 27 Utah 26 Rutgers 25 Florida 24 Kentucky 23 BYU 22 Penn St 21 USF 20 Va Tech 19 New Mexico 18 LSU 17 Mizzou 16 Wake Forest 15 Oregon St 14 TCU 13 BC 12 Tulsa 11 Alabama 10 Florida Atlantic 9 Auburn 8 Air Force 7 Mississippi St 6 Wisconsin 5 Arizona St 4 Fresno St 3 Indiana 2 Virginia 1 Hawai'i
  4. If the Cubs acquire Brian Roberts, Felix Pie hits .260, and the Cubs don't suffer any major injuries to their everyday players, I'll predict the unthinkable - we will eclipse 800 runs scored. Felix Pie at .260 will be a valuable player. unfortunately i think .260 will be his OBP
  5. i know you referred to john harbaugh as "the wrong harbaugh," but he's a great secondary coach. i can't really speak to whether he is qualified for a more significant position like head coach or nfl defensive coordinator, but he's good at what he does right now.
  6. yeah pretty much. the cowboys definitely have a handful of scumbags on that team; makes it even easier to hate them.
  7. carlos silva at 4 years, $45m? pass.
  8. please...please...don't deny me my spot in the HOF... uh yeah, the fact that you pitched like one of the best pitchers of all time during the last 10 years of that "public life" is exactly what caused a lot of people to doubt you.
  9. Fred still didn't fit in. if we use carbon dating we might be able to figure out his age
  10. good thing you made the 61 group open-ended; otherwise you might have left out Cuse and Bob Sanders.
  11. point and laugh at all the morons on tv who were bashing the mitchell report for having all sorts of second-hand "irresponsible" accusations. if anyone was really slandered by this, they'd find plenty of teammates to say swear that they were clean, and they'd probably file some sort of slander lawsuit. but oh look, nobody has done it or will do it, because everyone in that report used steroids. sorry, but i'm not about to feel bad for people who at the very least did something completely unethical, and might have broken the law. you took steroids, now everyone knows it. deal with that.
  12. well this game seemed like it would be boring, and the bears and vikings have not disappointed
  13. great decision hester
  14. yeah, my favorite part about yet another terrible game from him is that they kept playing the citizen eco drive commercials that said something like "eli manning is unstoppable, just like the citizen eco drive." right!
  15. thanks, i noticed that vance forgot to post pics of the cowboys game like he usually does
  16. man this game has been a complete dud. giants fans sound awfully ornery tonight (well even moreso than usual)
  17. i know, stupid cowboys ](*,)
  18. i forgot about the linebacker thing. losing freeney is a huge loss, because as the eagles showed, the only way you have a shot against the pats is if you pressure brady. their offensive line is amazing. the officiating in that game was (a)awful and (b)extremely one-sided. any neutral observer could see that. chances are the colts won't be so lucky if the teams meet again.
  19. Yes, if the Beagles were to turn it over it would become a stupid one. we'd have to lose the ball while taking a knee. the other way, dallas gets the ball back and if they score, they can try an onside kick.
  20. very smart play by westbrook, but i'm sure that he just enraged plenty of fantasy owners
  21. no, they can't beat the patriots because they're not as good as the patriots. those teams were not heavy favorites. san diego was favored by what, about 5 points against the pats last year? denver was also very good in 2005. and three years ago the pats were 14-2, and had won 2 of the past three super bowls, and were facing a rookie qb... i think they were actually favored over the steelers in the afc championship game. hey maybe i'm wrong and the pats will lose, but i don't think so. I doubt the Pats are big favorites over the Colts, if those teams meet in the AFCCG. If the line is big, bet on the Colts with the points. The Pats barely won the first meeting despite the Colts missing half their team. half their team? the only important players missing from that game were harrison and ugoh. if the officials hadn't been wearing colts jerseys during the game, the margin of victory would probably have been larger.
  22. well, generally it means that you have a better chance of winning than the other team.
  23. boy this year's eagles team is really good at playing to the level of their competition - and then losing

  25. I'm sure they'll be in fine hands and give WVU a chance to see if an assistant can do the job. Congrats to Michigan in getting a heck of a coach. I hope WV is getting the 4 for the buyout unlike the time they settled for 1.5 and not 2.5 from the hoops coach leaving. Heh, completely forgot about the Beilein move to Michigan as well. WVU = Michigan Jr. I would think that UM = getting the call to "the show" so WVU = UM minor league affiliate. the minor league affiliate has been better than the big club the past few years
