  1. Was thinking it had been a while since there was some blatant SEC snobbery in the thread. Our high ranked teams wouldn't be squeaking out a win against UNC, the same team that gave up 29 to Liberty. Or losing at home to Indiana.
  2. they don't have bosio Have you seen the Orioles' staff? He may have been the third best.

  4. Wonder if it bothers the Orioles at all that Jake Arrieta and Pedro Strop would have been their best two pitchers this season.
  5. Illinois down 24 early in the fourth, no sense of urgency with two touchdown drives, clearly not interested in actually winning the game. Now down 10 with 2:52 to play, let's see if they actually onside kick.
  6. Jesus, Wood. Got to either get that to Wondo 2 seconds earlier or put it in yourself.
  7. Wicked goal by Valencia to pull even.
  8. They were one of the worst teams in the league statistically last year and lost one of the two players they had that actually controlled the puck. I see them possibly last in the West this year.
  9. I know you feel wronged, but I think calling it treason is a bit strong. lol I usually groan when people Cuse people's misspellings, but this one made me giggle. Wasn't that NC Cub Fan? Dammit it was. Serves me right for trying to be clever. That's no ex-Cuse [/NCCubfan]
  10. Utah made two inexcusable defensive gaffes in a span of about 10 minutes.
  11. Going by Sagarin predictor ratings (because it's at least unbiased, in contrast to the inertia of the polls), the top 3 and 7 of the top 10 lost or are losing today. Alabama, Oregon and Oklahoma were 1-3, A&M 5th, Stanford 7th, UCLA 8th, and LSU 10th.
  12. That Jansen is so hot right now.
  13. Remember when fans were disappointed with a .500 record and bowl berth? those were the days.
  14. I didn't realize Soler was there too.
  15. @jonahkeri Delmon Young has made the playoffs 6 straight years with 4 different teams.
  16. A hot dog may be a sandwich, but it's definitely not a baseball discussion.
  17. @jonahkeri One day the Astros will develop a hitter as good as J.D. Martinez.
  18. @jonahkeri Going to be so amazing when Royals win the World Series & 29 teams play copycat by making terrible pitching decisions & constantly bunting.
  19. @royalsreview 4 minutes ago Their bunts go over the fence. It's weird.
  20. They'll pick 9th, after the White Sox but before the Philles.
  21. Oakland leads 2-0. St. Louis wins the NL Central as Pittsburgh lost to Cincy. Detroit wins the AL Central by beating Minnesota. Boston trails 9-0 in the 7th, and the White Sox lead the Royals 4-2 in the 5th. If both those scores hold, this Cubs game is meaningless for draft position. So...win!
  22. The Royals clinched a playoff spot last night for the first time in 29 years, leaving just 3 MLB teams that haven't been to the playoffs in the past 10 years. Any ideas?
  23. I'd honestly prefer a better player in the draft at this point. I'd honestly prefer to just finish ahead of the White Sox at this point.
  24. Cubs win! Now tied with the White Sox, one game behind the Phillies, two ahead of Houston and Boston. Draft order: 1. Arizona 63-96 2. Houston (because they failed at drafting in 2014) 3. Texas 66-94 4. Colorado 66-93 5. Minnesota 69-91 6. Houston 70-90 7. Boston 70-90 8. Chicago White Sox 72-88 9. Chicago Cubs 72-88 10. Philadelphia 73-87 11. Cincinnati 74-86 Cubs can get no higher than 7th and no lower than 10th.
  25. Locally, the media just doesn't get it. They see losing, and they don't see progress.
