Has there been anyone since Sosa that previously wore or requested #21? And just to keep this on topic, Murph's a moron. Not that we know of.

Bulls blow.
-
Ball State loses. At home. To Chattanooga. 70-55. And my optimism for another basketball team has entirely hit the skids. Can't wait to see us get annihilated by Kansas, W. Kentucky and Georgetown in a 4-day span.

ND would be iconic even if they joined a conference. I'd be surprised if the Big 11 wanted ND after the debacle in 1999.

or Notre Dame to the Big 10, some combo of Boise St./Hawaii/BYU/TCU/Utah to PAC-10 I'm operating under the assumption that ND won't join a conference. Even if they'd be receptive to it in the future, they've got four more seasons of NBC dollars to look forward to at least (and that's assuming that NBC wouldn't want ND back, which considering the future of the team wouldn't be a good bet). Well then there's no point in making all these changes. It's either ND to the Big Ten or nothing. Why would you say that? I thought what I proposed was fairly reasonable.

Solution? Louisville to the Big Ten. (12 teams) Add a conference title game. Marshall from C-USA to the Big East. (8 teams) Add a conference title game. C-USA can choose whether to keep their title game or not. Pac-10 has 10 teams already, so add a title game there. That way, you have a conference title game for all the BCS conferences. In 2006, OSU/Mich would get a rematch and it doesn't have to come at the expense of a national title game.

BECAUSE THE BOWL GAMES ARE CHOSEN BY JUDGES, INCLUDING WHO GETS TO PLAY IN THE WHATEVER BOWL THAT DECIDES THE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP. Every other sport this side of figure skating and boxing is decided on the field/diamond/track/ice/oval. The national championship in college football is decided by sprotswriters. It is a joke. Wisconson, West Virginia, Louisville, and Rutgers, only has one loss. Boise state has zero losses. None of these teams are even in the discussion. If Michigan plays OSU again and wins both will have one loss. Some other team that didn't play OSU or Michigan could end the season with one loss. Boise State could end the season undefeated. Actually the national title right now is decided by coaches (the poll). Which is probably even worse.

If they ever have a playoff, it better not be more than 4 teams. If there's ever a 2-loss or more college football champion because of getting hot at the right time I'll be irate.

It's very possible with the Rose Bowl getting the first at-large pick, especially if Arkansas loses the SEC title game, leaving them as an at-large team. I think that if Arkansas wins the SEC title game, the Rose Bowl will select Florida rather than have a USC/ND rematch, though. Who knows what happens if Florida wins it, though, because Ark/SC would be a rematch as well - a rematch of a terrible game. Yeah right good point. I think they would choose ND in a heart beat. Notre Dame's first experience in the Rose Bowl would be intriguing. 1925 - The Four Horsemen beat Stanford in the Rose Bowl in their final collegiate game. :wink:

Cubs sign Soriano
Andy replied to Rusch33's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Perhaps a therapist could help ?? :wink: http://www.tonesplace.com/wp-content/20060614-celebrety_jeopardy.jpg "The Rapist" for 600, Alex -
3/45 for Schmidt in this market is not just reasonable, it's probably a bargain. Get him, Jimbo!
-
Whoa! Just like last year, Hendry sets the market. At least this time he did it with Soriano as opposed to overpaying middle relievers.
-
Muskat also never even offhandedly mentioned an interest in Soriano. Her opinion means about as much as mlbtraderumors.com's at this point.
-
30 days I believe soccer. When is the offering arbitration deadline? Or has that passed? I don't see him signing before then. and we're what 5-6(?) days into that, BoSox gotta have the deal done b4 x-mas(re3ally earlier, but i dont know the exact dates), i can see him waiting that long Either way, who is our GM and what did he do with Jim Hendry. That Carlos ZanRambo avatar someone has might fit better with Hendry now. He's taking no prisoners at this point.

#1 Payroll in National League?
Andy replied to Laura's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Hmmmmmmm. Sounds an awful lot like he wants us. :D BUY THE CUBS CUBES -
So, why do people always bring up the postseason when talking about MVP? I'm just trying to make a point that even people who like baseball the stupid way can understand. I don't know that anyone brings up the postseason other than weighing which guy got his team there. FTR: I thought Pujols deserved it but have no issues with Howard winning it.

Check earlier this thread. :wink: They suckered me in now, BTW. You'll never guess who I am.

So let's say Notre Dame beats USC, and Florida and Arkansas lose their games. Does ND really deserve to go ahead of Michigan just because they didn't play OSU during the regular season?? In theory it make sense, but there's far too much noise in a college football season to use something like that as a guideline. To be fair, they owe ND one after the travishamockery in 1993. :wink: I think it would be very interesting to see the voters be forced to choose between the head to head logic (send Mich to the title game) or the no-rematch logic (send ND) if they were the only viable options (Ark loses to LSU and then beats UF example).

Cubs still pursuing Lugo.

Perhaps we'll find out. -
Pujols helped carry his team to a World Series victory. What did Howard do that could make him for valuable to his team than Pujols? REGULAR SEASON AWARD REGULAR SEASON AWARD REGULAR SEASON AWARD
