  1. The SBNation Twitter bros would be a Cinderella for me. The comment on their voting page about them pretty much all being the same person was absolutely spot-on.
  2. Didn't know that, should've
  3. LMAO STL fans are still piping mad at Joe Maddon for saying "we'll finish it" 6 months ago, but sure dude

    NFL Offseason

    Apropos of nothing, I went to school and worked a little with Ryan Wood. He was 2 years behind me at Ball State.
  5. Those mid-majors that only have 4 or 5 losses always scare me. Seems like they are constantly in close games down the stretch in the tournament. Stephen F. Austin is another team like that this year, just as they were when they won their 5/12 game a couple years back.
  6. Monmouth being out at the expense of basically cancelling Syracuse's crap stretch without Boeheim (never mind that he wasn't there because the crusty old coot was running a cheating program) is a joke. ND/Michigan, IU/Kentucky and Texas/A&M as potential matchups show the committee has a sense of humor.
  7. Supposedly he has rib cage inflammation and Hurdle said he won't be ready by then.
  8. My Panthers
  9. There's probably nothing to it, but with our studly outfield options, I'd be fine with sitting Soler when it's cold unless he has a platoon advantage
  10. I like Fowler at the top. Zobrist at 2 is fine, Schwarbs there would be cool. Bryzzo 3/4. But there aren't many wrong answers with this group.
  11. It just strikes me as #firstworldproblems complaining. People bitch up a storm that college football games aren't scheduled at the most convenient possible time, but don't care that the title game ends past midnight on a Monday, killing kids' ability to see the game. Not that I'm doing a "but think of the children!" thing, but the point is there was no perfect way to schedule those games, at least not once the SEC and Big 12 teamed up for their silly Sugar Bowl deal to lock in the NYD time slot.
  12. Due to NYE falling on Saturday this year, the playoff just announced that the two semifinals (Fiesta & Peach) will kick off at 3 & 7 p.m. ET instead of 4 & 8. Orange Bowl will move to Friday night, Dec. 30. I liked the NYE/NYD tripleheader concept (although with NYD on Sunday those games are on Jan. 2 this year), so I'm not in love with this. Also not crazy about how this will inevitably embolden the people who spent the last year whining about the NYE games, which I got sick of very very quickly.
  13. Just popping in to say that that Russell dong was glorious. The game's on MLB.TV (Angels feed) if anyone didn't know.
  14. Sounds like Javy's first game action in CF isn't going so well.
  15. I love Harbaugh and think he's hilarious, which makes it even more infuriating that his previous employers were a bunch of morons and he fell right into the lap of the team I dislike most
  16. Never said last year's Bulls were great, but that 'gimpy short-handed Cleveland team' destroyed Atlanta in the ECF, so it's not a huge leap for me that the Bulls could've beaten them. The Bulls haven't been legitimate title threats for 18 years. More than half of our lives. There's been some fool's gold along the way and last year was definitely that. GSW would've absolutely defenestrated last year's Bulls. Of course they weren't a title threat. I never said they were. I am with UMF though that the 2011 Bulls were legitimate contenders, and 2012 was too prior to Rose breaking.
  17. I guess that's one way to describe losing to a gimpy short handed Cleveland team in the second round. Never said last year's Bulls were great, but that 'gimpy short-handed Cleveland team' destroyed Atlanta in the ECF, so it's not a huge leap for me that the Bulls could've beaten them.
  18. Most of this team was the same group that would've probably made the Finals last year if not for a Game 4 meltdown against Cleveland. Nice job, GarPax.
  19. You bastard. 20 or so of those sound amazing. I'm hungry.
  20. Grandpa Rossy forgot his birthday again
  21. So Zobrist or Heyward #2? I'd put Zobrist there myself, but I just don't really care. This has been a really good day.
  22. It's going to be a blast kicking the horsefeathers out of them this year and watching them bitch about it.
  23. he was born in Missouri grew up in Texas and turns 30 in spring training. He is an old redneck. He's much much closer to being Jon Lester than Addison Russell, Kris Bryant or Jason Heyward. And he went to an SEC school and he's best buds with Carpenter. TCU joined the SEC?
  24. I just can't wait until we sign Hinrich again this off-season
