    What channel is this on?

    Honestly, I don't see the big problem with this. It's Posey's fault he put himself in an awkward position, which is clearly what really caused the injury, not the contact. If he's on balance like he should be, he gets knocked on his ass and that's about it. Being off balance and getting twisted around because of it is why he got hurt. It's a shame he got hurt, but I didn't think the hit was vicious or malicious.

    Is this smoke and mirrors or did Correia figure something out? Isn't this the 2nd time this year he's given us fits?

    It would have taken an absolute mauling for him to draw a foul there. He probably had a better chance to sink the fadeaway jumper than he would have to go to the basket 1 on 5. That's not on Rose. That's on Thibs for not figuring out another option with LeBron defending Rose. That's a bad matchup for Rose and you have to go somewhere else. I was thinking that as it happened and Legler said the same thing post game.

    Seems overly whiney considering in just the past couple years the farm system has given us our best player, 3/5 of our (original) rotation, 3/7 of our bullpen, a few other regulars, and still has the guy who will most likely be our starting CF next year, another guy with a very good shot of being in the rotation next year and several other guys who will probably make the majors at some point. When you put it that way, it's not nearly as bad. But it is a pretty uninspiring group based on current production and potential ceilings.

    And it seemed like every ball that could just by chance bounce to the Heat did. Not a lack of hustle or anything, just a bunch of unlucky bounces.

    Miss Lippy's car... is green. Billy.....likes to drink soda.

    Honestly, look at him when he's out top, he looks completely gassed.

    I was too young to watch the first 3 peat. And perhaps I'm underrating defensive impact, but I think you could argue it being the other way considering the latter Bulls had Toni Kukoc as their #3 option on offense and the #2 option for a huge portion of the final championship season. They wouldn't have been as dominant, for sure, but thats still a championship worthy team. You're greatly underestimating the defensive presence he provided. Jordan was a great defender, but Pippen could guard most anyone on the floor effectively other than centers (and a few really beefy PFs). He shut down Magic in the 1991 Finals for the most part just about singlehandedly. And there's no way any other SF leads that 1994 team to a near Finals appearance if not for that awful phantom foul call.

    Shockingly, I actually am getting the game in St. Louis.

    Cubs may score all their runs for the week with Franklin in now. It's really annoying having to listen to the Cards announcers even though the game is on ESPN. Hrabosky keeps talking about the cards hitters getting under Garza's skin for no apparent reason.

    That, and it's not uncommon to have spleen issues related to mono. It tends to get super inflamed when you have mono and an infection wouldn't be too hard to believe with that going on. It totally sucks, I've had it twice. Wrecked my (potential) running career.

    I've been here two years now, and I don't find anything redeeming about the local St. Louis cuisine. T-Ravs are decent, but their pizza sucks. There are some pretty good restaurants around here, but none of which specialize in "local fare." I really miss being able to get Italian Beef. Go to Blue's City Deli, everything they serve is fantastic. There's also a place on Delmar that does a great job with their Chicago dogs, but I can't vouch for their beef sandwiches.

    Based on what we've heard about the issues he was having, it almost sounds like he was just having a dead arm period he had to work through and has gotten past it. Here's hoping that's the case and he can maybe help in the bigs soon. If he's ready stuff-wise for it, he can't be any worse than what's been getting tossed out there in the #5 spot.

    CP3?

    Any reason not to PH Colvin and Pena for those two? Edit: N/M on Pena
  17. mul21
    You deserve to be kicked in the nuts. First, just for being a Duke fan, and second, for even having the gall to try to claim that!

    Apparently there's got to be blood to get a foul called tonight.
  19. mul21
    Is there any particular reason Soto is hitting 8th?
  20. mul21
    Z!
  21. mul21
    And that's why you don't make managerial decisions on a 26 AB sample. I guess I'm a bit surprised Reed isn't in there instead of Colvin, however.

    The funnel cake with strawberries, whipped cream, and chocolate sauce is delicious! Good beer selection too if I remember right.

    If I remember right, he had problems with the academic side of things and was a bit of a disappointment athletically too.

    Now apparently Andy Katz is reporting he's staying at Purdue.
  25. mul21
    Reports down here are that everybody is waiting to announce anything until Painter can tell the Purdue players personally what the deal is. Everybody in the St. Louis sports radio world is acting like it's a done deal.
