  1. But, but, but, it's the Wings there so awesome, clean and play straight up.
  2. An average goaltender would have stopped those last two goals.
  3. Kronwal is a [expletive], bigger hitter, yeah right, more like wait until a player has his down then line him up.
  4. I wonder what their reaction would be should it have been Red Wing taken out in such a manner.
  5. The puck being near Havlat' stick offered Kronwal the perfect opportunity and excuse to potentially take Halvat' out of the game and feign innocence. Sure, it was "clean" but, it was also gutless because Havlat' head was down and there was not intent on the puck.
  6. Get ahead 0-2 - check Hang a slider over the middle of the plate - check
  7. Dumbass Soriano misses on baseball 101 hit the cut off man.
  8. What do you know even a crap hitter like Gwynn Jr. can hit a hanging breaking ball - wish the Cubs could.
  9. I hear you, not to take anything from the Wings but, they got every bounce in Games 1 and 2.
  10. Anyone else growing tried of seeing Lee take rolling get me over breaking balls and bp fastballs on the first pitch?
  11. No bouncing puck that time, Sharp smoked it, 'bout time.
  12. That's a much more glowing review than every other account I've heard of that practice. Apparently, there were lots of drops. Receivers are having trouble adjusting to the heat on Cutler's throws. Not that it matters much, it's the first day of OTAs. Still a ways to go. I read that too, which seems completely contradictory to the Daily Herald article saying only one ball hit the ground. And the Daily Herald article is definitely wrong. There's footage of way more than one drop. Maybe he wrote that after only watching a part of practice or something. He wrote "of his first 40 or so passes" and said most were against air. I'm sure he was just talking about the beginning of practice. You know it's still shocking that the Bears have the best QB in the NFC North along with one of the NFC's best.
  13. A-soapdropping-men! Most especially when the Cardinals sans Pujols are a AAAA team but, I take it with grain of salt, come September or maybe even July when they're healthier and playing better that sweep will be returned and then some.
  14. The Wings have not had a highly ranked farm system for 15 years and yet is still produces about as good as anyone elses. Lidstrom is certainly an all time great, but he already taken a step down from where he was several years ago. Even If Lidstrom retires the Wings still have Rafalski, Ericson, Stuart, Kronwall, Lilja, Meech, Kindl and Lebda. Plus it frees up their biggest contract, so signing a player like Bouwmeester would be very reasonable. He is a step down from Lidstrom but Ericsson and Kronwall will still be improving. I think the Hawks still have plenty of places to improve and may pass the Wings, but I dont think the Wings are going to drop down too much in the near future There's one thing the Hawks have that the Wings cannot match nor have an answer for - Scotty Bowman - I believe that's going to translate to them making the best and correct decisions when to comes to future contracts, etc. Basically, the Hawks are young and talented along with a management that's not going to eff it up.
  15. If career statistics and regression to the mean stand for anything we're going to get two or more months of Bradley being scorching hot - let's hope people are getting on base ahead of him when that happens.
  16. Wait, are you talking about Fox coming up and catching? That's a horrible idea, since he can't do the whole "catch the ball" part of the equation. I've seen him play much, how terrible is he? Because in addition to not hitting Soto' become 2007 Kendall when it comes to throwing base runners out.
  17. There's been a lot of talk about Jake Fox maybe, he can't catch the ball but, if he can hit, why not? Hell, even if it's only for a month, a month may give Soto time to get in better shape and heel up. I'm ready to go with Hoff at 1b for awhile as well thus far, he's shown he can do something Lee can't do - hit. And Freel, he was acquired to do what exactly? It wasn't to play baseball that's for certain.
  18. Franklin might have the poorest stuff for a closer I've ever seen.
  19. Lee K, Bradley weak grounder to 2b, Soto screamer to that joke in LF.
  20. Somebody had to post a post about how the Cardinals were a minor league lineup before this series. Sometimes you should just bite your tongue and not tempt fate. Well, aren't they? Beyond Pujols they're garbage.
  21. Sori swings thru the straightest of fb down the middle of the plate.
  22. Soto morphed from one of the best catchers in baseball to one of the worst, only the Cubs.
  23. No Sut, its the second time the idiot Cub defense has given them a run.
  24. Seriously how stupid is he? Dumber than Bradley on the base paths.
