Mmmm, skillet http://img4.cookinglight.com/i/2003/01/skillet-0301p179-m.jpg?300:300

He's an idiot, but couldn't we play pretty much this same game with any college basketball preview that tries to predict all the tournament teams? SI probably had most of these same things.
-
Looks like it is his left wrist. He got up and he's staying in the game. Everyone breathe.
-
I have the game on and just burst out laughing when he hit that ball. He's just ridiculous.
-
On that same wavelength, EI now comes with MLB.TV. I just found this out yesterday. So if anyone's interested.

Apropos of nothing, I got a call AND an e-mail last Friday trying to sell me on buying 10-game packages and such, apparently because I went to Wrigley last year. I've been to Wrigley at least once the last 10 straight seasons and this is the first time I received such a contact.
-
Ended up with Florida, MSU, SDSU and Duke as Final 4, with Florida over Duke for the title. BYU somehow in the Elite 8. Doing these round by round without pre-existing thought to where people end up can lead to some odd predictions.

What's Carolina's cap situation? I wouldn't fret. This is possibly the deepest WR draft class ever. Well, that's reason for optimism. I don't obsessively follow cap stuff, but I know Carolina was up [expletive] creek financially coming into the off-season and probably benefited as much as anyone from the cap going up by $20M (part of why they were able to franchise Hardy and absorb that extra money).
-
FWIW, I forgot LaFell and Ginn were both free agents (and Ginn already signed with Arizona). Carolina's current starting WRs according to Schefter are Tavarres King and Marvin McNutt. Go team.
-
Dave Gettleman better be damn sure he's getting whoever it is he's after in the NFL draft, because dumping our only receiver worth a [expletive] doesn't make a lick of sense. Releasing Steve Smith makes plenty of sense. If you have another WR it makes a lot of sense. Unless I missed something, Carolina's best wideout not about to be released currently is Brandon LaFell, which would be fine if the team's goal was to go 7-9.

Cubs Tickets on Sale Today! (Success and Failure Thread)
Andy replied to hawkcub's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
This is going to be the bottom out year as far as pre-season ticket sales go I'm thinking. Well, it sure as [expletive] better be -
I've found it really strange the NCAA is allowing that. If APR is really supposed to be as important as the NCAA says, they should tell the SWAC "tough [expletive], you're having a six-team tournament if you don't get your teams to at least not completely suck in the classroom".
-
Hornacek should win it. The Suns' organization was basically trying to tank the season and Hornacek's got them in potential playoff position in the much better West. Thibs will be in the top 3 though.
-
The Bulls are not only going to make the playoffs but do it easily in a year in which the best player played 8 games and the third-best player got traded for literally zero present-day assets halfway through the season. Thibs for President.
-
Miami and Houston are the two organizations that should never, ever, ever, ever be allowed to complain about another team putting a "B" lineup out there.
-
It's simultaneously ridiculously impressive by Thibs and a little depressing that we came just about as close to beating the Heat in a playoff series with last year's ragtag bunch as we did with the fully healthy Rose/Noah/Boozer/Gibson/etc group in 2011.
-
If only the Bulls were picking in the top 10 so they could get difference-makers like Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Thomas Robinson, Jan Vesely, Anthony Bennett, Austin Rivers, Derrick Williams, Enes Kanter, Bismack Biyombo, Brandon Knight, Jimmer Fredette, Cody Zeller and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope. I know this draft is supposed to be better than most, but based on the last few years, you're about 50/50 to get a halfway decent player with a top 10 pick and far less than that to get a 'difference-maker'.
-
Those are fine I guess, but I liked the old ones better. Tampa Bay really has some solid uniforms IMO
-
Kris Bryant looks a little like Theo in that photo

I remember getting home from school basically right before Alou's homer. That was a great day.
-
Most of the last decade or so seems to indicate no on that.

Cubs get Bonifacio on minor league deal
Andy replied to davell's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Bonifacio was once one of the better players for the South Bend Silver Hawks. Liked him because his name is fun to say. That's about all I've got. -
I hope it doesn't come out at some point hat Jeter was on PEDs. I have heard at least 3 different people talk about how he has been a light in a very dark period for MLB. I thought it odd that anyone would assume that any player is clean and make such a statement.It's certainly possible he's used, as it's possible just about anyone who's played MLB baseball has used, but he's had a pretty normal career track and there hasn't been even the slightest whisper of evidence against him. I think it's safe to say he's clean.

I'm fairly certain Brey is full of [expletive] considering the semester is 3-4 weeks old and Jackson wasn't even plain clothes on the bench and the game was at the JAC Yeah, internet speculation was that he was leaving ND. "Not registered for classes this semester" sounds like an academic issue. He might as well leave. Every other decent athlete at the school has either cheated or transferred in the last 12 months, why not him? This season [expletive] blows. Last night's game was like a root canal.
