  1. You aren't going to remove the Sklar Bros. pic for UM/NU week?
  2. No, Iowa isn't on that level. Just ask 'em :lol: :lol: :lol: I wonder if Brian's dad and the AD mentioned the awful fumble call late in the game deep in UM's territory or the missed safety call when their kick returner muffed the kickoff, then proceeded to kick the ball as it lay on the 1-yardline before recovering it in the endzone. Instead, the officials ruled it a touchback.
  3. 11 seconds...that is all :!:
  4. I'll be there. Hope it lives up to the last MI - NU game in Evanston. Me too :lol: http://www.umgoblue.com/images/Football/2003/03-UMNW/03-umnw-avant.jpg
  5. Sox in 6
  6. I think that one of the more accomplished statisticians here could calculate Beltran's park adjusted numbers. The best I could do was, in a neutral ballpark he puts up about a .790 OPS. So Beltran was a bad random example to use. Look, I'm not trying to get angry, and I apologize if I'm coming off as ultra defensive. It's been a real, real bad couple days for me. The only points I was trying to make (and admittedly I did a bad job framing it) was that I'd rather the Cubs overpay good to great talent, than overpay or setlle for mediocre to bad talent. As far as Mazzone goes, I tried to clarify my initial reaction by saying that I am concerned about another offseason of relative inactivity followed by settling for what's left on the market, rather than taking control of the situation and being intelligently aggressive. Am I jumping the gun by crying doom about this winter already? Maybe, but it unnerves me that Burnitz's option hasn't been declined yet, and Macias is on the team, still. Delroy, I hope we're cool. After all, soccer fans have to stick together. Of course we're cool, we may have a difference of opinion, but it ends there. And gray skies will clear up, my man (although maybe not in regard to the Cubs).
  7. You qualified the statement by saing $7 M or whatever? Um, okay. I just said his contract was $4.5 M. No need to get angry, that's what it was. You used Beltran as your only example (why the hell should I fish for another example?), and you clearly implied his numbers would've been much better at Wrigley, in fact so much better that you would spend $14-16M/year on him rather than the $4.5 M the Cubs paid Burnitz. So you let me know how much Shea Stadium depressed Beltran's offense this past season. What would that .266/.330/.414 have looked like at Wrigley?
  8. Burnitz signed for $4.5, not $7 M And you're right, Beltran's #'s were really depressed by Shea, he'd have gone like .380/.500/.875 at Wrigley and definitely justified the $119 M/7 years. Good call.
  9. What about contraction?
  10. Not unlike Vince Young. I think he's going to leave for Barca, unless we win the CL. And that ain't happening, is it? :cry:
  11. The nd haters coming out of the woodwork? What about the nd fans? And now the psu fans. I'm expecting those "lifelong" bama fans anytime now. And that was not even close to being the best CFB game in the last 10 years. Come on now. If the irish make it to the Orange Bowl after losing to Tenn, something's truly wrong.
  12. Or that rolling sack of crap that Redman threw Kerry Wood in game 7.
  13. Did you see Thierry's opening goal today? He's a [expletive] baaaaaaaaaad man. http://sportcorner.ws/main/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=1130 Requires some work...copy the red text and paste it into the empty box underneath it, then click enter. Then save and launch the file.
  14. I agree with Adam. Holtz didn't say the FG kicker comment after the ND game because it did not come down to a field goal kicker. Also, do you really not expect Lou to be an ND homer? I mean, come on. At least he has a reason, unlike Berman's love affair with the Boston Red Sox. He didn't have to. He could've complained about the OT system since it gives the offense the ball in scoring position. That's what it boils down to! Instead, he manages to praise an ND team that got absolutely shredded all day. And the next week he decides to deride the OT system. Okay, Lou.
  15. The ND bias from Lou is clearly apparent, after reading the thread in "Rants" about the history of your family (situated in South Bend, siblings that work at UND, etc.) I don't suspect I'll convince another ND homer that Lou is schilling for one of his former teams (I suspect Spurrier told he'll kick his crotchety old ass if talks about South Car. after leaving them in hell). Anyway, I sure as hell hope he isn't the long-term replacement for Alberts. They ought to give that job to Jim Donnan or Gottfried or someonel like that.
  16. No, being a moron does. After the MSU/ND game, he gives credit to both teams (although he bitches out MSU for planting the flag), says this is what college FB is all about, wonderful OT game, there are no losers. Fast forward a week, Michigan beats that same MSU squad in OT. Holtz gives no credit to UM, says that CFB rules for overtime are unjust since they make it a contest of FG kickers. LOL! Which is it Lou? And do ND fans really believe Tenn will be a cakewalk like Lou does? He says they're a BCS lock and will finish 9-2. Not so fast my friend.
  17. I don't know what Saunders said. I think May said they'd go 0-6 or something foolish. I'm not a big May fan either, but all Lou does is lick ND's ass on that show. Surely you see it, everyone else does.
  18. Apparently he thinks ND is still writing him checks if his BS on College Gameday is any indication.
  19. Holtz is the moron, good heavens. And how did he get a job as an analyst with that nauseating lisp. And Tennessee will beat Notre Dame.
  20. Oswalt will win game 6, he's the bomb.
  21. I said a month into his pro career Albert's the best hitter in baseball over at the ole Espn board. I'd trade the entire franchise for him
  22. They'll be back. Probably with Damon.
  23. I know, isn't it? I had been searching for a site like that for ages. Chilavert...best keeper ever?
