  1. Notre Dame is finalizing a home and home with Gonzaga and will host the Bulldogs on Dec. 11th. They're going to play Kentucky on Dec. 8th in Freedom Hall for the Big East/SEC Invite. Between that and the Old Spice Classic, we should have three good non-conference games, which will be up from squadoosh this last season.
  2. You're not sure why they would extend an offer to ND? In light of the statements coming from the athletic department, yes. Especially after all those reports that the Big Ten wasn't going to offer them anything and that they'd basically have to beg on their knees to get membership. Statements aren't all that meaningful, actions speak louder than words, and it was quite obvious all along that the big ten was going to make a push for ND. Nobody should be surprised that they would make an offer. Fair enough. I think I'm more with Butters's post three above this one than I am any other in this thread.

  4. Missouri in the Big Ten makes sense. What I'm not sure about is why they extended ND an offer when the athletic director has been saying only a seismic shift would make that happen. Pre-emptive move I guess?
  5. If you ask me the Reds should have gone for the two-point conversion on that touchdown.
  6. I think it's fair to open the debate of whether John Grabow was a worse signing than Aaron Miles.
  7. SNEAKY POWER HAS BEEN FOUND SALAMI STYLE
  8. Wow, oops. I thought I saw that hit off a fan. Just off the line, which means it's not a homer after all.
  9. That's a homer. Come on, umps, easy call.
  10. The ump is completely inept. It's a coin flip whether he calls anything within 6 inches a strike. Marshall, on the other hand, is not inept.
  11. That all being said, hopefully Colvin is in the lineup tomorrow or Sunday, it's been a while since he got a start. Keep him fresh, because he didn't look it on that strikeout.
  12. The geniuses broadcasting for the Reds now saying that were it not for the three big contracts in the outfield, Colvin would play everyday. I'm sure Soriano, Byrd and Fukudome all hitting over .310 with power has nothing to do with it.
  13. Wittenmeyer and Muskat are confirming that Castro's 6 RBI are the most ever in a major league debut.
  14. Alright, Carlos Silva. Enough of this.
  15. Holy beans, this kid is [expletive] good.
  16. NSBB will blow up if Castro goes yard here
  17. I think Castro is getting lots of respect. I also think it's foolish to declare the debate over whether he should be up over because he's had 2 great ABs to start his career.
  18. After this half-inning, I believe.
  19. Thom Brenneman is a self-loathing loser would be the #1 reason that came to mind. But what brought it about was the trivia answer that Aramis was the Cubs' leader in hits last decade, prompting Brennaman to say that he would have guessed him or Lee...and then off he went.
  20. He is still talking about it. He also said that a grounder "went through the legs" of Alex Gonzalez. What a prick.
  21. Thom Brennaman just reminisced about the great NLCS between the Cubs and Marlins in 2006. Thom Brennaman broadcast that NLCS.
  22. 6th Cub to homer in his first AB. The last one was, oddly enough, pitcher Jim Bullinger.
