  1. the difference in salaries between Calvin and Fitzgerald doesn't even buy you C.J. Moseley, i think we'll manage
  2. his cap hit was already in the area of $22M, and was eligible for a $27M franchise tag next year; we didn't really have much leverage if he were to play hardball this gives us much more cap space now edit: Kevin Seifert summed it up perfectly, the tremendous bind we were put in: http://espn.go.com/blog/nfcnorth/post/_/id/37302/digging-deeper-into-calvin-johnsons-future
  3. that's actually pretty team-friendly too, awesome
  4. stop talking about David Hawthorne; he's my #1 FA priority and you already have Urlacher
  5. Vlade Divac thinks Sullinger's flopping is shameful
  6. wow, Vandy about to beat UK
  7. nets vs. bobcats highlights
  8. god, you're the bitchiest bitch that ever bitched
  9. Trey [expletive] Burke.
  10. seven
  11. last year, Tony Campana hit the ball in the air less than 1/3 of the time he made contact 22 of his 37 (59%) hits were of the infield variety; the next highest season (PA > 150) since 2000 was Dave Roberts (49%) in 2003
  12. I assume you're laughing at the last sentence? Indiana took a team that was picked to be 9th in the Big 10 and a fringe NCAA tournament and instead is likely a top 4 NCAA seed. And that's with one 5 star and only two 4 stars playing, so they weren't drowning in talent. Beilein's close, but they have similar overall resumes and Indiana overacheived much more than Michigan did this year. (UM's starting five was/is entirely composed of 3-star players) also, you seem to be arguing more that preseason predictions were woefully askew, rather than that Crean did any great job of coaching
  13. this argument doesn't really hold much water: http://www.bigten.org/sports/m-baskbl/spec-rel/102711aaa.html we were unranked at the end of last year and our best player bolted for the pros, getting replaced by a 3-star frosh PG; our top-25 pre-season ranking was head-scratching to say the very least
  14. probably, but i'm still going to do it anyway; Beilein (co-)won the conference with a 6'4" PF!
  15. if Beilein doesn't get COY for winning the conference without a single top-25 recruiting class then he never will; i must add, good of Izzo to get 6 PPG out of a 5-star like Adreian Payne
  16. lastplayerpicked.com
  17. i dunno, i kinda like Jalen
  18. wow, that high?
  19. that helps explain his feelings towards UM http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qcSzgrHZVXk&t=39s
  20. Hardaway just can't miss; this is bizarro world right now
  21. this SI piece on UCLA hoops' fall does not reflect very well on Ben Howland (or Reeves Nelson, for that matter), to say the least http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2012/magazine/02/28/ucla/index.html
  22. all right, my bold prediction is that Castro won't win the MVP
  23. I'm thinking .315/.365/.480 .330/.400/.500 so, basically...he'll double in production and strongly contend for the MVP
  24. .875 ops for LaHair vs. RHP (he'll be pretty shitty vs. lefties) Stewart tops 3 WAR
  25. Brooks Robinson's in the HOF with 268 HR, Santo's in with 342
