  1. Just give it to Platini. Warner is going to try to take everyone down with him. And might have a lot of success. Wynalda is probably sitting back laughing his ass off.
  2. Jack Warner has been suspended along with bin Hammam. This could get fun with the steamrolling Warner is going to take.
  3. I think I am getting to the point to where FIFA can be destroyed and a new organiztion should be formed.
  4. It looks like Brian Sanchez is going to be getting a spot start tonight if his points can be removed tomorrow morning.
  5. Blatter now under investigation too. We may not have an election next week after all.
  6. The unofficial tattoo artist for The Ohio State University has been charged with drug trafficking and money laundering. So has Derwood posted at all today :-k?
  7. This is correct. Although there's a bit of inconsistency; the exemption limit is 50 plate appearances, but the minor league eligibility limit is 200 at-bats. Agree - it doesn't make sense. We should have one or the other as the standard. The way this is setup you could have a player losing years of exemptions while playing in the minor leagues. That doesn't make much sense unless I'm missing something. Thats 50 plate appearances per season too. If he spends all of year 2 in the minors after burning an exemption he doesn't lose a 2nd exemption. I would agree the 200 ab's is too high as guys can stash away guys in the minors who are no longer there. I would drop that to 100 or so.
  8. Considering what they did to Herbstreit this is not at all surprising. Sounds like Smalls his a little bit of a grudge against The Vest.
  9. Maybe he shouldn't have blocked the plate.
  10. BTW - because Posey ends the year with 185 PA, I assume I don't have to burn his 2nd exempt year ? If I recall, the eligibility was 200 PA or 10 games started (for pitchers). Its actually 50 I believe, and 200 is the cap to be eligible for the minors.
  11. I think that automatically occurs with them being on probation for the Men's Basketball team. We might not see them in a bowl game till 2016.
  12. I wish Cuban owned the Cubs.
  13. So is Westbrook a liability on this OKC team. Just curious if he is the right type of player for them.
  14. I like it, I might not get him but lets make Lincecum expensive as [expletive].
  15. Very close to being true. And we both know those prospects will no do much for him next season. As loaded as the next prospect draft is going to be that pick is more valuable than most every prospect being offered today. Besides he doesn't need 15 prospects, he needs points next year too.
  16. Unless you don't want to compete next year you need at least a 1st round pick in both the regular and prospect draft. All those players you mentioned won't get you in the playoffs till 2014 if ever.
  17. Wilpon plans to send Davis to the minors because he is not a superstar.
  18. Nadal taken 5 sets in the 1st round, though it was a tough 1st round matchup in Isner.
  19. I wonder how much Ichiro brought in his first 5 or so years. I know he is a complete exception to the rule, but still curious.
  20. If anything happens this should be it. I don't think pitching points should be reduced to try to even them out.
  21. Harden is a lot of fun to watch.
  22. Looks like his talent finally caught up with him.
  23. Any worries about Chandler going to Germany?
  24. At first I was thinking this must be for some random friendly as this can't be for the Gold Cup. I really want to see Bradley's response for this.
  25. I'm glad I can say I cost my team the win this week and not crappy as play. Well at least Tim went down too. And Utley returns this week :-)
