It's not irrational. Scrappy McGritterson is buying into his own hype as the new (and white) Mr. Cub and it annoys the crap out of me.

I have a feeling the shine is going to start coming off the Mike Brey era pretty soon (for the national media - a lot of ND fans have already conceded that we've already seen his ceiling as a coach). He still has this rep as a great coach right now, but ND hasn't played any defense whatsoever the last two seasons sine Gene Cross left for Toledo (where, oddly, he's been a total failure thus far - I thought he'd do great there), and his ridiculous failure to ever play more than 7 men consistently is holding back the development of guys like Joey Brooks and Jack Broghammer. We're going to need those two next year to replace Harangody and Jackson's production, and they're getting no minutes at all right now. Tim Abromaitis has been at many points ND's best player this year and yet he never sniffed consistent minutes prior to this season. It makes no sense. I didn't think this team could possibly disappoint me more than last year's team, but something like 6-12 in league play is completely in play here and I expected a lot more.

Why is it that all these stupid one-dimensional Thabeet types that no one else seems to have that much trouble with always completely dominate games against ND on the defensive end?

Don't know, but Sam Smith Tweeted that this 5-2 trip is the best Bulls road trip since 1996-97, when that team went 5-1 on a West Coast trip. That's incredible. And now the Bulls have a nice homestand coming up. This is a real opportunity for the Bulls to make a move. It would be pretty apropos for the team to crap the bed when they should be making a move up the standings too. It absolutely would.

Jim Edmonds signs with the Brewers

I don't know if we ever made fun of Cards fans' love of Jimmy. We just made fun of him. -

The Vikings had the game winning FG in their sights and didn't get it done. That no-call was a bad one, but the Vikings had a chance at making it not matter and messed it up. Call it 'backing in' if you want, but the Saints win wasn't appreciably luckier in my mind than a slew of other close conference title games - the Colts 'backed into' Super Bowl XLI under this logic and it worked out OK for them.
-
The NFL has really been making a big deal out of some dumb things lately. It made no sense when they tried to trademark "Big Game", and it doesn't make any sense to do this.
-
backed. into. Super Bowl. This may very well be the dumbest retort in the history of this message board (excluding trolls). OMC basically told you why you're wrong and you respond with the same hollow immeasurable BS you've been spewing for 2 pages.

I've made my peace with Jimmy. He was a huge part of that 2008 team. I have no bitterness towards him either, I just don't want him to play well for a division rival. -

Mascara, half-shirts, etc. Hope he plays his way onto the roster. And then is not good. -
It would end the 2nd longest streak in the NBA of not having any All-Stars. First one since Jordan.
-
So do I. Neither of us should be given contracts.
-
Just a week ago, they lost to the Clippers and Warruirs, so no. They are, however, 3 ahead of Milwaukee for the 8th spot currently, so they're in decent position. I would love to get to at least the 6 seed to draw Atlanta or Orlando instead of Boston or Cleveland.
-
What in the world got into this team? Whatever it is, please don't let it get back out.
-
Nova didn't even play well and they blew us the [expletive] out. We really suck, but Nova's also really good.
-
Plausible, but they did just beat Texas in their last game before this.
-
Notre Dame is the worst allegedly good free-throw shooting team I have ever seen. I can't remember the last time ND got a pair of free throws when they needed them. And now Nova's running us out of the gym. So damn predictable.
-
Well, the Irish got their lucky breaks in the first half and completely failed to take advantage, so now the bounces are going Nova's way and things are starting to go bad.
-
ND down 41-40 at the break and could easily be up by 6 or more if they could hit FTs and not be so sloppy. Weird to say that ND's been uneven offensively in a 40-point half, but they have been.
-
Notre Dame is playing really shitty to be down 5 to Nova right now. 3/8 on free throws, incredibly stupid turnovers and poor defense.
-
This is a prank. Following is an excerpt from the Neil Patrick Harris coming out story. Look familiar?
-
They're friends. It was an inside joke.

Rich Hill to StL
Andy replied to Southpaw191679666239's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
Did I talk more about Rich Hill than I remember doing? I hope Hill is just good enough to be mediocre in St. Louis and get crushed every time the Cubs face him. We'll see. He may have you mixed up with abuck. I figured the combination of an also-ran former Cubs pitcher and the much vaunted "pixie dust" of the Cardinals/Duncan that seems to give Andy fits might have been too much for him. I'm still busy worrying about how Juan Pierre will affect us in the World Series. I'll get around to worrying about Rich Hill later. -
