  1. Gonna watch this game on DVR later. This result thoroughly confuses me.
  2. Man, if only Carolina had hit their stride just a couple weeks earlier. If they hadn't blown a big lead against Atlanta and Olindo Mare could kick a [expletive] field goal, this could've been a playoff team. Hopefully the momentum continues into 2012.
  3. Boise/Michigan or even Baylor/Michigan (or heck, Boise/Baylor) would've been a great Sugar Bowl.
  4. Unsurprisingly, after Chryst leaves Wisconsin, Crist chooses Kansas.
  5. I didn't catch the whole IU/ND game, but from what I saw...holy God, the Irish are even worse than I thought. 5-7 Big East wins seems likely.

    I would've picked his 2-homer game against Cincy that Patterson later won with a walk-off.

    Daryle Ward's homer, Jim Edmonds's most-likely-apocryphal "[expletive] done with St. Louis" game, the back to back Mets games in April where Cedeno and Pie of all people had huge home runs, the Reed Johnson game against Arizona, Aramis's White Sox walk-off...I really want a DVD encompassing that whole regular season. Most fun I've ever had day to day with a sports team. The best moment for me though was the Aramis slam against Philly, though, because the Cubs had come through so many times by that point that I was virtually certain Aramis was going to homer.
  8. Might be time to pull the plug on the Gabbert experiment. He looks like Jimmy Clausen 2.0 (can't escape pressure, holds onto the ball too long)
  9. Doesn't explain why he turned down the Vandy job last offseason, though.
  10. 2nd time in 18 months that Bill Simmons has written a "[fill in superstar] should go to Chicago if he wants to win" column about a guy who's clearly not coming to Chicago. I feel like there's some dark secret about the Bulls that explains why no one wants to play here that we'll learn later or something.
  11. Todd Graham bolts Pitt for ASU, tells his players in a text message. How nice.
  12. That's completely befuddling.
  13. I wonder how he felt about New England winning 18 games in a row then, or Green Bay's current streak of 19.
  14. Sorely needed both to return, thank goodness they are.
  15. weird how atlanta was playing a garbage [expletive] team and two long TD passes were the only reason they were losing to begin with
  16. Yeah, IU is getting in, barring a major disaster. They're going to go undefeated non-conference now, that's already 13 wins. Get Iowa twice, Penn St twice, Nebraska, Illinois in Bloomington, and now Minnesota and Purdue look pretty beatable. Get those first 5 conference wins then you're looking at winning 3 more conference games and a B1G tourney game away from a 22 win team. Notre Dame screams "let down game." I'm now pretty worried about that game. There is exceedingly little chance you lose to ND even sleepwalking. ND's best showing this year is probably their loss to a fairly bad Maryland team. The team is Scott Martin (who's not good) and a bunch of kids not ready for the roles they have to play. You'll be fine.
  17. Keith Jackson and Dickie V together? Pretty wild
  18. Hardly ever happens anymore. Hopefully this starts a trend.
  19. I don't understand why every court-storm is subject to review by the committee. This team has been crappy for the better part of 4 years (no 4-year student there has seen anything worth crap to this point) and they beat #1 in about the most thrilling way possible. Storm the court.
  20. He needs to hire a good defensive coordinator, but if he can do that there's no reason he can't do well at KU. His last ND team went 6-6 but scored at least 21 points in all their losses (which were all by 7 or less). With a competent defense he'll do fine. ETA: Truffle's not wrong about treating ND folks like crap (I've heard the same chatter), although if the stuff about Mangino is true it can't be any worse than him.
  21. Really it was the Rockets that were getting screwed. NO actually would've made out pretty decent, with a 1st rounder plus 3 starters for a guy who's gone in 6 months. Maybe I'm giving the owners too much credit but it seems like they may have vetoed this trade as a pre-emptive strike against the Howard deal they knew was coming after it.
  22. Stein says the deal won't go through tomorrow, Wojnarowski says owners have pushed Stern to kill the trade. The plot thickens.
  23. The Rockies' beat writer just Tweeted that it's Colvin and LeMahieu for Stewart and a minor league pitcher by the name of Casey Weathers.
  24. I'd definitely like to see that myself.
  25. Yeah, the Lakers probably already have the Bynum for Howard deal on standby. How is that the best offer out there for Paul? And how exactly do the Rockets improve from that deal?
