  1. Ironically this loss hurts me in the bracket, because I just can't see WV being able to beat Aldridge and Texas, and then being able to beat Davis, Thomas and LSU. Ugh. Go Mountaineers and Bruins.
  2. I knew that the first time Redick sucked that Duke was going to be doomed. I should've made this pick.
  3. Wow, nice defense, Duke. :roll: And Thomas blocks a shot! Tigers are in very good shape. My bracket, not so much. (Granted I had Duke out next round)
  4. I was rooting for Bradley regardless of the fact that I had Memphis winning this game. However I think the Gonzaga-UCLA winner will probably end up in the Final Four. Stupid, stupid foul by McRoberts.
  5. He's not fat, just big boned. http://hometown.aol.com/huppmoile/images/cartman.jpg Fixed.

    Aldridge is my best bet (which, although Aldridge is good, doesn't speak much to the quality of this draft). And I think Redick makes a better pro than Morrison but I don't think or hope the Bulls draft either of them. I think the best thing we can do is have Paxson call up Isiah again and make another trade that ensures the Knicks' crappiness again next year so we can take Greg Oden, though.
  7. I need WV and UCLA both to make the Final 4 to have a chance to win my pools. I have a bad feeling that at least one of those are going to lose tonight, though...
  8. requoted for emphasis Seriously. This team really isn't that much better than the 2003-04 incarnation. Bring on the draft.
  9. Ironically, Bush himself incorrectly credited himself for getting Sosa to the Cubs while we were making the run in 2003. He in fact traded him to the White Sox for Harold Baines.
  10. Games I can win: Duke WV Memphis UCLA UConn Nova Other Games: Go George Mason Go Georgetown
  11. You don't wanna know what I think about when I see the name Bush. *cough* my sig *cough**cough* Speaking of which, I've decided after a lot of passing by your sig in threads that the girl on the right just edges out the girl on the left. Barely.
  12. Somehow I knew that no one would go with the "it'll be cool to see the President throw out the first pitch at our Opening Day game" angle and go with the "I hate Bush" angle. There are countless threads in Rants in which Bush-bashing is not just accepted but downright encouraged. Go there.

  14. Bowden has stated that he will field offers for Soriano but he isn't going to give him away. I'm guessing dealing for a guy who the Cubs can't get an Orioles player who can't beat out Patterson for a CF spot, at a position they already have filled, would fall under that category.
  15. Try getting called for a T for hanging on the rim in the last 2 minutes when the same exact dunk has been done by all teams all year without one being called. That happened to us last year against Vermont. This post brought back major flashbacks of the Bulls-Wizards series when one of our guys (I think Tyson but I can't be certain) got T'd up for no apparent reason supposedly for hanging on the rim. A few games later in the series, Etan Thomas dunked the ball, hung on the rim, even pulled himself up and smacked the backboard emphatically, and no T was called. I was irate with the officiating through all of the final 4 games of that series, but that especially drove me nuts. Off topic, I know.
  16. No, no, you're not quite right...it's only crappy lefties and rookies that own us
  17. how is joe morgan not in your 'announcers to punch'? Paul Maguire and Keith Jackson also belong on that list.
  18. The Nats asked for permission from the Rangers to speak with Soriano prior to the trade. Permission was denied. I wonder if this was because Texas knew Washington wanted to make him an OF, and Texas already knew he didn't want to do that...
  19. I think you guys had enough losses like this to last you for a couple of years. Next year things should be turned in your favor. Of course since Syr beat you by double digits that should continue. :wink: You only beat us by six. :wink: Although you probably dominated ND in that game more so than any team other than NC State did this whole season, sadly enough. Unfortunately, I think next season might have to be a rebuilding year. You lose two guys who have started for the last three years (Francis for the last four) and it isn't going to be easy to replace them. We'll see. I have to mention that I loved Brey's reaction to the shot - he just laughed and headed over to Amaker to shake his hand. I think he was just glad to be done with this season.
  20. ok, i gotta say, your avatar really makes me question your sincerity...that damn red bird.... :lol: :lol: :lol: It's the Ball State Cardinal, not the St. Louis Cardinal, I assure you. Reference the Wrigley sign in my sig if you don't believe me. :wink: Dont be shy, it's a good lifestyle. http://216.127.78.103/~dutch-starwars.com/database/personen/pics/luke2.jpg "I'll never join the dark side."
  21. Check the front page. http://www.northsidebaseball.com Oh, ok, thanks. I just saw the one that made you do the $5/month plan and not the one that let you do it all at once. Sending in the payment now - my tax refund is paying for this. :D

  23. Hey Tim - Is there a way to PayPal the 50 dollars for a one-year subscription?
  24. And the Japanese win the world championship. Class from the Cubans congratulating them. Overall, a very strong debut for the WBC, although obviously the format could be altered slightly.
  25. Speaking of guys that are raking, Matt Murton hitting .517! Of course I can't help but think about what happened to the last Cub starter to rake in ST... (Nomar)
