  1. It also gives the Cubs one less pinch-hitter on most days. It doesn't happen very often, but seeing Koyie Hill in a 12th inning pinch-hit opportunity just makes me cringe.
  2. Well, Lauderdale looks like he is 35. Why does Ohio St always have that one guy who could pass for a 10+ year NBA veteran?
  3. Any word on whether Jereme Richmond will play today?
  4. I don't know why, but it always seems like Thursday has more upsets and better games.
  5. I will be surprised if Richmond is on the team at all next year. Not because of this issue specifically, but multiple issues throughout the year. I hope I am wrong, but I expect him to transfer.
  6. For anyone who didn't see it, Silva's complete line today was: 3 IP, 11 H, 8 R, 5 ER, 1 BB, 1 SO That brings his spring ERA to 15.88 So what do the Cubs do now? I imagine any trade possibility is off the table and there is no way he can make the big league team. It is time for either an outright release or a fake injury.
  7. Back into 4th place. Trying to keep track of the Western Conference standings makes my head spin.
  8. I'm not sure Utah's starters could beat the Bulls' 8-12 guys.
  9. Followed by 3 not-so-perfect innings. Silva gave up 4 runs on 5 hits (including 2 home runs) in 5 innings today. Not a complete train wreck like his previous outings, but certainly nothing that is going to win him a job.
  10. Princeton just hit a jumper to win but they're reviewing it. Man I love March. Looks like he got the shot off. Harvard now 65 years since their last NCAA appearance. Take that Winkelvoss twins!
  11. http://i.ytimg.com/vi/oDj7zOKc_0E/0.jpg
  12. http://chicago.cubs.mlb.com/schedule/broadcast/index.jsp?c_id=chc The LV game is on WGN. And the other game is on WGN radio. Let's see the SportSync radio work with that!
  13. Greatest nickname ever. I sure hope the Bulls can keep Stacey King around and he doesn't get snatched up for a national TV job.
  14. Time to go back to 64 (or 65) teams! Or we could get serious and just deal with the problem. By doing what? Eliminating the 1 year out of high school rule? Increasing it? Get rid of the one and done. I personally would like to see it mirror college football to keep players around for 3 years, but I don't think that will ever happen, so getting rid of the rule altogether is the next best thing.

  17. Apparently that must be the game plan, because it has been happening for years and nothing has changed.
  18. I don't care what our RPI says, this team has no business in the NCAA tournament. It is the same pattern over and over again and they just find ways to lose games.
  19. I'm staying at the Boston Marriott Cambridge, which is near a subway stop and only about a mile from Fenway. It is rather pricey though ($300+ per night), so I'm only staying there because I have a bunch of Marriott points.
  20. Still only 4 games sold out? The Yankees series and the White Sox game on Saturday? I guess if the Cubs want to charge premium prices, they better start putting a premium product on the field.
  21. That is the worst game I have seen Rose play this year, if not his entire career. I think his jump shot has really regressed lately in general.
  22. I wish Prior well. Any reports on his velocity?
  23. With help from Colvin's defense (or lack thereof) apparently.
  24. Hurry up and buy your tickets while you still can!
