    I mean it was a [expletive] play but that was a really high flyout and it actually worked out better for us because it got Wong off the bases. Castro was looking at Wong and that's why he dropped it, I don't think it's anything to worry about

    infield fly is only 1st and 2nd or bases loaded Huh, I didn't realize that. I thought it was if there was a force at any base. It's not because in this case the offensive team isn't hurt by the drop. With runners on 1st and 2nd every IF could just intentionally let every pop-up drop in and get 2 outs

    IF fly requires runners on 1st and 2nd

    Maybe this time we'll score some runs for Shark?

    Carolina

    That's our Cobs

    Deckhairs, Titanic, etc. Seems like anyone we put in the pen is going to suck anyway. That said, I agree, get rid of either or both.

    What a tool. "How dare you ban us for blatantly failing to even pretend to try to graduate our players!" Then again, I couldn't and still can't [expletive] stand Calhoun, so that colors my opinion a bit.
  9. Andy
    Yeah, but just wait until our top-10 pick in the 2016 draft gets to the big leagues sometime late in 2018

    The "Lance Berkman is scared of lightning" game comes immediately to mind

    I fell into a YouTube rabbit hole watching old Sosa clips the other day after David's post and saw one, don't remember when, that barely snuck into the basket on a line. I also distinctly remember a Sammy rainstorm HR against the White Sox (again barely snuck out) that was essentially a walk-off because everyone in the stadium knew there would be no next inning.

    They're going to win the division, so it's probably best to just not worry about all their bull [expletive] until the playoffs.

    I'm probably on the low end of income for people on this board, granted, but $2500 is an absolutely stupid amount to spend on a ring. (I spent just under $900, before anyone asks)

    "Guys, why would we be sad? Everyone's happy about the minor leagues. Oh yeah, I guess there's the other part, too." "Our morale is so high as we continue to put up historically awful performances in the only area that counts."

    Anything more than 74 would surprise me. I'll guess 67.

    With Pat Hughes' call too. That makes me feel things. You quoted the wrong link, but yeah that Game 1 homer was at the time one of the most unbelievable events of my life. And naturally Dusty fucked it all up in extras.
  17. Andy
    Oh Jesus, I forgot about [expletive] Braun.
  18. Andy
    Seriously, how in holy hell can anyone put 2008 into anything resembling the "dark ages"? That was, and probably always will be, the single best sports team I've ever followed day to day.
  19. Andy
    Sammy, but Aramis and Z aren't far behind. Mark Prior was my favorite of the 2003 team but obviously he wasn't around long after that.

    If they rule that Northwestern athletes aren't students, that means that they think pretty much no college athletes are students.

    The problem with Noah is it seemed like the Bulls were collecting high energy, high effort bigs at the time, but had a glaring need for a low post player. Hawes was seen as a much better low post prospect, at least in my memory...he hasn't exactly turned out that way. I thought Noah would be another Tyson Chandler type player and never expected he would be able to have the effect on the game that he has. Yeah, I think my exact thought upon his drafting was 'great, a younger Ben Wallace'. He's made that thought look completely ridiculous.
  22. Andy
    Sure seems like it.

    I feel like this is cut and pasted from one of illiniguy's rants in years past just with the team names changed (subbing in MSU for Kansas). With Dayton beating Syracuse I'd say the illiniguy version can be put back in play. :P Was just coming here to post this.
