I'm sure they sell out. But it's still beside the point. A&M on the schedule rather than one of the 50 or so comparable or better programs doesn't make a lick of difference to Texas.

Well they'll put someone there. They aren't going to play 1 fewer game bc they took a&m off. I don't know about ND in 2012 (dont see them moving usc) but it'd be great down the road.

Are you suggesting that replacing XXX with a&m greatly improves the schedule?

Assuming the risk. You can't respond to a lenny dykstra post on Craigslist and then claim surprise when you see his junk.

Skin or hair in the sole of a shoe or do you think the imprint on the guy's face matched up just perfectly with one of his 49 pairs?

BQ is carrying the broncos to the super bowl

Yeah, that's not going to happen. But who knows what might shake down if the super conferences come to fruition. I like that Swarbrick has been keeping tight with Texas. There are worse allies to have in cfb. ND and UT don't have to worry about anything. They don't need allies. They can get into any conference they want. I don't disagree that they don't need each other to survive. But word is nd and ut have been pretty close during the conference shake-ups. I like that the 2 AD's have shared thoughts and have some influence on each other. That's all.

Rumor that texas wants to replace a&m with ND on thanksgiving. I suddenly have a real interest in a&m leaving. Hopefully ND could move Stanford around and end the season either at usc or at Texas. Solid.

Thats all a bunch of bunk. Taking your glove off between pitches? I don't think I ever didn't do that while playing. Tons of players chew and spit seeds in the field. Sometimes they get stuck on your lip. Sometimes you dig in your pocket for more. Even moving your eyes from the batter while the pitcher is in the wind-up isn't unusual. I'm guessing middle infielders do that all the time with guys on base. These are not the activities that should warrant tearing down a player. It's bs crap.

Your argument for canning Kenny is that two of the worst sportswriters in Chicago don't like him? I'll reserve judgement until I see what da bum thinks. Combined with other Chicago media members. Do you see a common theme here on Kenney? Regardless of your opinion on these media members, they have a lot more access into the Cubs organization than you or me. access doesn't mean unbiased.

It's not like he's been living in a shoe box. Nor is it as if you can't be those things and good at your job.

Do you think this is how Team 6 felt after they shot bin laden?

ND sporting the uniform that apparently won "America's Next Top Model" http://c0013914.cdn1.cloudfiles.rackspacecloud.com/x2_7cc4db3 Pop that hip, bitch.

Randy Shannon was a good guy, so they fired him. bunch a racists

I'm struggling to think of any player or coach ever affiliated with Miami that isn't a giant douche and almost all of them I outright hate. So [expletive] em. Can't wait for the tv ban that keeps the nd game at soldier field off the air. [expletive] Canes.

Who knows what's going to happen, but that's just not true.

it's all leo mazzone.

does brian kelly have an alibi? i doubt it. Yes. he was at the Indiana State Fair when it happened. imb has been waiting all day to figure out how to make that joke.

Hahahaha. Hope the big 12 kicks a&m out.

it kind of has. 125-81 record, 123 era+, etc. Trending down. ok, so by switching topics, you implicitly admit you're wrong that it hasn't worked out before now?

No, but Hendry typically talks himself into a corner by enraging the meatheads to the point that no solution is acceptable other than the banishment of said player. GMs will lowball him because they know he HAS to make a move. Had all parties just shut up and kept the clubhouse business in the clubhouse, no one would be wise to any of this today. Are you against the 30-day suspension? Eventually it would have come out what happened once word hit the press of his suspension. Teams need to discipline behavior like this. If a guy is fiery, fine. I love guys who have a ton of passion for the game and want to win. But Z went beyond that. When it affects the team, it needs to be addressed, and that's what happened here. I don't support Hendry at ALL, but I'm on his side here. Just curious, but how did Zambrano leaving after he got ejected/ripped to shreds by Soriano affect the team in any shape or manner? Things said/done in the clubhouse should stay there. You have to be consistent. So if it's ok for Z to throw a fit and go home when things don't go his way and you do nothing, that means you're saying it's ok when anyone else does it, too. And it's not like this is the first time Z has done something crazy like this. If it was from totally out of the blue you could overlook it, but if it's forgiven it'll just happen again. Something needed to be done. And like I said-- once the Cubs announced a 30-day suspension for Z, the reason would have gotten out regardless. I hope he really stays away so the Cubs can spend that money on a pitcher who isn't a complete mental case. no, no you don't. it's not tee ball.

STOPITSTOPITSTOPIT Are we sure this is likely? Wood doesn't strike me as the type of guy that wants that much attention. Grace was always an ass. Maybe I'm blinded by my affinity for KW, but I'm hoping he becomes a coach or just fades away.

now i'm going to be reading these all night. charlie_hustle: aw c'mon i said i was sorry bud_is_wiser: Well yeah, but that doesn't mean you can keep doing it! I'm not Jesus!
