Update: I'll see if I can do it this weekend. It's certainly doable.

two words: Open Bar That doesn't even begin to describe the full buffet and 74" plasma TV. :D it's so cute when you pretend to be a cool kid How'd that greatest poster tourney end working out for you?

Ha! Tim is a baseball whore...compromising values for wins.

Gold Glove winners announced

Albert is lauded as by far the best defensive first baseman by those who keep track of such things. -
Exactly. Sure, I would prefer a guy like Drew (if $ were equal), who has the .380 OBP and potential to hit for power, but if he doesn't get his power back and Baldelli never develops more than a below average batting eye, I think Baldelli will be the better player. So you're saying (assuming $ equal, which it isn't) Drew with a .380/.420/.800 OPS would be worse than Baldelli with a .330/.470/.800? Or are you saying Baldelli, even with a below average OBP (in the .320-.330 range) will have enough power that it will outweigh the 50-60 point advantage in OBP? If the former, I respectfully disagree. When comparing the players, it is bad. What I'm saying is that obp is better than slg, but there really aren't many obp studs to be had. Thusly, if you can't get an obp stud producer, you shouldn't turn down the opportunity to get a stud producer who relies on slg instead. Yes Drew is probably a better option, but if you can't get him, Baldelli is still good.

That was slick. And now it's 7-0. I want 8 Almost got it there as Babel's header hit the crossbar. Yeah that would have given him a hat trick in only like 20 minutes. What a revenge game!

There needs to be a reasonable limit. It shouldn't be necessary to block all of them just because a couple of posters don't keep them reasonably sized. If it was possible to block individual posters' avatars and sigs it might be different. does 3.0 allow you as moderators to resize avatars of people who go overboard? It will automatically shrink them.
-
Well in relation to obp vs slg, just because BMW's are way better than Mercedes doesn't mean you shouldn't want a Mercedes. Of course you prefer obp heavy production, but don't devalue slg production.

AYE Here, here, Murton Fan!

I'm lovin' it! Only a few more days until the first home televised game. Mark November 11th on your calendars!!! Pretty lucky win. FIVE FREAKIN POSTS?! REALLY BLUES?

Bill James rates Cubs young talent 29th in baseball
wolf stansson replied to UMFan83's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I think Bill is just messing around at this point. This article makes me not sure I believe he actually follows baseball. -
C'mon. Meph has been spot on on all his other predictions for mismatch or not, though. He has been wrong a few times, specifically about Michigan. But he's clearly right here. Using the criteria from the preceding weeks, Ohio State-Illinois is a mismatch. Florida-Auburn and Kansas-Nebraska both were labeled mismatches. Following the same logic, so is Ohio State-Illinois. Saying otherwise exposes bias. Now, is Ohio State-Illinois a mismatch? I don't think so, but that's not the issue. I don't disagree, I'm just saying he hasn't been "spot on on all his other predictions" for the whole season. His projections are certainly more accurate than most, just not spot on. That would just be lucky.

Heh, Yallop resigns in LA, moves to San Jose again. Paging, Jurgen Klinnsmann.
-
I'd take Darren McFadden, Felix Jones and Jonathan Stewart ahead of him but I think Mendenhall would be the fourth best RB in the draft if all of them turn pro. Definitely a day 1 guy, maybe a 2nd rounder. What about Slaton and Rice? This RB class is going to be so dope. I think Mendenhall and Slaton are about the same but I know people who disagree with me on that. Ray Rice is physically behind these other guys, imo. There are some nice players available beyond the first round. And I LOVE Felix Jones. I think he could have the best career in this class. What makes you guys think Mendenhall won't come back?

I think he is Eddie George Jr. He'll have 5 or 6 dominant years before his body breaks down. Perfect keeper cornerstone.

I will be there in my Rudy Carpenter Jersey.

lmao Drafting and then trading Adrian Peterson was the greatest idea ever. I'm gonna go kill myself now. How's Ronnie Brown doing? Better? SUCK IT

Clint back on target today.

The Kobe thread (Formerly Kobe to be traded by Oct 30)
wolf stansson replied to Banedon's topic in Other Sports
Tyrus is Shawn Kemp with a more athletic body. Keep him over Noah if at all possible. His ceiling is much higher than Deng's. Tonight just further illustrated the need for a guy like Kobe over a guy like Deng (yes I realize Kobe wants no part of a Deng-less Bulls team). We can't dribble to create shots or attack the rim. If you can't do that, you can't get to the line and if you can't get to the line, aggressive defenses will eat you alive every night of the week. -
Santana?
-
I think United is going to roll. Teves and Rooney are on another level right now.
-
Yeah, until someone not on the top line starts scoring consistently, they are going to have some rough nights. I do think they are a playoff team though.

The Kobe thread (Formerly Kobe to be traded by Oct 30)
wolf stansson replied to Banedon's topic in Other Sports
I hope it's something like "Wallace, Gordon, Noah and assorted crap for Kobe" Although if something were close to imminent, it would have broken elsewhere. Yeah, I don't think Schuster is going to scoop anyone. It'll be something along the lines of "Paxson said it's dead now, but that doesn't necessarily mean it is not going to happen..." or some other crap that we already know.
