  1. You don't have to deal with grandmas telling you to sit down after every big play though. Happens to me in 433 quite a bit.
  2. Of the big chains I think Uno's (too dry and overcooked) and Lou Malnati's (too soupy/mushy) are worse. I just prefer Giordano's thin crust compared to them. Gotta get Lous well done. That's the ticket. And yes, Unos sucks. Totally forgot that existed.
  3. Giordanos is the worst deep dish pizza in Chicago, imo.
  4. same game, i think, Remlinger strikes out Jason Giambi with the bases loaded and a full count. Put the ball right on the inside corner and got him swinging. With a huge glove pound to follow, I believe.
  5. Notably, Alou [expletive] all over the cardinals.
  6. 20th K Sammy 62 and the He's Got You, Babe game.
  7. Northwestern is now 10th in AdjD, 315th in AdjO. Wtf?
  8. Besides Chris Collins being a hell of a coach. Outside of Crawford, that roster is hot garbage. Offensively, maybe, although I don't think Demps has been garbage offensively this season. They have some pretty active defenders. Agreed, but, quite frankly, a large portion of just about any team's defensive intensity and effort are directly from coaching emphasis, and that is magnified on this NW team that isn't extremely athletic. They were 7-6 in the Non-Con including a loss to DePaul and some awful blowout losses in B1G play, but they have maintained effort. Good for them. Yeah I agree for the most part (excepting that Cobb, Crawford, and Lumpkin are certainly athletic). The interesting thing for me, as I've mentioned, is that the defensive the uptick is strongly correlated with Sobo's minutes. Starting PG gets hurt, team wins. The Oeff/Deff ranking split is almost as extreme as it was under Carmody... But flipped.

  10. Yeah Northwestern's D is pretty legit.
  11. @rodger_sherman: Aaron Craft does things that don't show up on the stat sheet, like get his ankles broken while the other guy hits a game-winning jumper.
  12. What exactly does "definitely think" mean? Of course one's own thinking is definite. Then again, La La doesn't strike me as a masterful linguist.
  13. Baez's comp is RIPKEN.
  14. This game's a lot closer if Olah hits some of those good looks at the rim, but Iowa is such a tough match up. Deep, balanced, and good size.
  15. Criticize the snark? Fine. But there's not really a problem with evaluating how Epstein and Hoyer ended up with so many great prospects: they had a lot of favorable picks which were obtained at the expense of their MLB team. It's an important qualifier to "zomg our FO has so many good young players" and mentioning those tradeoffs is relevant to that comment and this thread.
  16. People always overpay for top performance in a contract year.
  17. Apparently Garza deal isn't done. Cotillo wins again!
  18. I don't think you realize how much of a draw Wrigley is.
  19. http://images2.wikia.nocookie.net/mlp/images/4/4a/Dolls_Laughing.gif
  20. http://rack.0.mshcdn.com/media/ZgkyMDEzLzA4LzA1Lzc4L3RoZWZyZXNocHJpLmJjYjYxLmdpZgpwCXRodW1iCTg1MHg1OTA-CmUJanBn/3bbc61a2/e62/the-fresh-prince-of-bel-air.jpg
  21. @TBTimes_Rays: For those still speculating, #Rays big announcement IS the Balfour signing. No Price or Myers extension, no stadium deal. Lololol
  22. So Garza gets Jackson money/years. The elbow had to scare teams away.
  23. That's an interesting choice of words.
  24. Wait wait, have you guys seen THIS?!
