  1. West Virginia, 33 percent 3-point shooters for the season, shoots nearly 50 percent from long range today. That and your expectedly atrocious home reffing job from Tim Higgins adds up to no chance for Notre Dame. Gotta beat UConn on the road to get a 2 seed now.
  2. I have to question Samardzija's adding that ridiculous facial hair to his already-ridiculous hair.
  3. MJ did if you don't count his 85-86 season in which he missed 60-odd games as a full season. Of course, he got to the ASG his rookie year.
  4. And he's got a really, really, really good chance to win at least one while he's in Miami. And really, is it LeBron's fault that Cleveland constructed such a horrible team around him? If anything, their poor play just makes me understand better and even sympathize with why he wanted out. Didn't they ask him for his thoughts on most of their acquisitions though? They gave him what he wanted to work with basically? At least I thought that was the case. And there was no way they could get a decent FA to come to Cleveland the last couple of offseasons without any answers on LeBron staying past 2010.
  5. Really wish Nova's 3-pointer had been in time. I don't see ND being able to make up a 2-game deficit on Pitt in the final 5/6 games (5 for us, 6 for Pitt), not with trips to West Virginia and UConn looming. I'm figuring most likely logical best-case scenario is 14-4 and 2nd place, which would still be an utterly phenomenal showing.
  6. I have an L that fits me very well and I usually wear XL shirts.
  7. Opening Day on Friday is a great idea, should have been done a long time ago.
  8. I'm coming around to Fairley as the #1 pick. We have no starting-caliber DTs on roster and he's a mutant. Not what I wanted from the top pick but he could be quite useful.
  9. You aren't even a Bulls fan, right? Why do you even care? That's like the 3rd post he's made in a day pissing and moaning about our opinion of a hypothetical Melo trade. Doesn't seem to me like it's worth the time. I was never of the opinion that we had a legit shot at getting Melo anyway - certainly not after they extended Noah rather than trading him, which seems like a good move right now - so I don't even know why this is an argument.
  10. ND has one really tough game (@WVU) left before the final week of the season, which features home against Nova and @ UConn. After taking out Louisville in OT tonight, it's conceivable that they could be 13-3 in the Big East going into that final week. Mind-blowing to think that I was worried about being 4-5 in league play at one point during the second Marquette game.
  11. Yea its not on my WGN on DirecTV or CSN. Only WGN local.
  12. You are really selling him short when you say hes "a decent QB". I know some of us already had this discussion in another thread, but Ben is firmly planted in the group of QB's behind Manning and Brady. Brady won his three Super Bowls in more or less exactly the same way Roethlisberger won his two (playing usually very well and sometimes great while largely being carried by a great defense), which people seem to want to ignore sometimes.
  13. Yeah, he's definitely the #1 TE in this draft. He'd be a slam dunk for Atlanta if Gonzalez was retiring. Heck, they may pick him anyway.
  14. He's been much more than an average recruiter at IU. It's actually been an amazing recruiting job. His in-game coaching is still very questionable though. I may just be underestimating how difficult it's been for IU, but it seems like if Crean is such a great recruiter, he should be doing better than well below .500 in the Big Ten in year 3.
  15. Well, so much for "I'm [expletive] done with the Cardinals". Too bad.
  16. Top 5 jersey in the league. I like the black jerseys but the red ones are the best ones in the league.
  17. Who is this? Jalen Brown. He was snowed in and actually took a picture of his signed LOI and e-mailed it to Notre Dame to complete the process.
  18. I thought you guys were going to the NIT Funny how things can change, isn't it?
  19. #8 in the polls is fun, and provided they take care of business, ND's games against DePaul and Rutgers will make it more fun.
  20. if we just hold all 23 recruits, I'll be ecstatic. If we steal Niklas from USC or someone like that, all the better. But I'd much prefer no ND recruiting "news" between now and Wednesday. So much for that. Bennett Okotcha switches from ND to Oklahoma.
  21. That'll help the old RPI. I wonder what the polls will look like tomorrow with so much carnage having taken place this week.
  22. Did anyone complain about three students storming the court? I was just talking about Crean and thigh the lobby scene I don't think anyone here really has, but there are some who criticized it. It just baffles me how sportswriters or thirtysomethings can forget what it was like to be in college and go to sporting events.
  23. Of the current Indiana students, only the senior class has seen anything resembling the IU they've always heard about, and it was for one month. A month that was completely destroyed by the Sampson phone crap and ended in an ignominious first-round tourney exit, and a month that was followed by 2 black-hole seasons. The storm-the-court police are progressively becoming the most annoying thing about following sports. IU has been in hell for nearly 3 years and they beat a ranked team. Let the kids have fun.
  24. I have never been impressed with him, and I'm not sure how he ever started getting hyped in the first place. His only real selling point is that he has the physical build to potentially be a good NFL quarterback. He possesses no other skills that would make him one.
  25. Wait, so can we get Michigan's AD on the record as saying Rodriguez was fired for practicing too long and not for having two losing seasons, never winning a game of note and getting [expletive] annihilated by like the 6th best SEC team in his only bowl game?
