  1. Not to mention the Chicago media loves themselves a successful middle linebacker.
  2. So long Berto Center. Actually at the end of the article they indicate the new facility may end up keeping the Berto Center name.
  3. Nailed it!
  4. Yeah, he was never any miracle worker or anything.
  5. The stuff about Scottie and MJ fighting to see who got to guard Kukoc is great stuff. Really fun article.
  6. I wish I'd gotten to see Larry play more. By the time I was interested in the NBA, he was done.
  7. Not the endorsement I'd have picked, but I guess beggars can't be choosers.... He went on to note how these days pitchers throw stuff that has all kinds of crazy late movement that is often invisible from an umpire’s point of view, adding “They can’t see it. They’re humans. We’re asking humans to do a feat that a human can’t do.” http://hardballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/06/12/bobby-valentine-would-welcome-automated-ball-and-strike-calls/
  8. The Perception and Reality of Jay Cutler http://nflfilms.nfl.com/2012/06/05/cosell-talks-the-perception-and-reality-of-jay-cutler/
  9. lol Mets. This is sarcasm, right? Why would it be sarcasm? I don't want to live in a world where I can't laugh at the Mets money management. And no, it's not sarcasm. The Mets are paying Bonilla through 2035 (and Saberhagen through 2029). They structured their contracts that way so they could afford to sign Mike Hampton to his ridiculous contract in 1999 (and later pay him to play decently for other teams). Right...was that what he thought was sarcasm? I misunderstood then.
  10. Reggie admits he used to use that move to get fouls. Big whoop. Lots of players used to get generous foul calls, and still do. Michael Jordan was most definitely one of them. Not sure why the conversation has gone on this long.
  11. lol Mets. This is sarcasm, right? Why would it be sarcasm? I don't want to live in a world where I can't laugh at the Mets money management.
  12. Saw this on HardballTalk's comments, and couldn't resist reposting it here:
  13. So does knowing that the original call was wrong ruin the excitement for you? I lol'd.
  14. Wasn't Pie on Lansing? Dude... you're totally right. Haha But I was in Peoria in '05 when they came back there. Now that I'm thinking about it, who the heck did I see there that made me go watch a game??? Anyway... I need to go so to see Baez/Soler/etc... Kerry Wood pitched a rehab game there that was big news at the time as I recall.
  15. http://www.cbssports.com/mlb/blog/eye-on-baseball/19332202/cubs-sign-cuban-of-jorge-soler
  16. I don't know what the big deal is since we signed him back in like February, right? :)
  17. You're aware that the Cubs have not lost 100 games this year right? Oh [expletive] that noise. For good reason, SSR isn't big on assuming things will end up as you think.
  18. http://www.bleachernation.com/forum/index.php?/topic/1000-crazy-trades/ Not crazy about the minor league guy Brett added. That question is definitely not interesting. It was interesting enough to spawn another message board to start posting about it. ;)
  19. No way you're aren't going to be productive if the Cubs get this done. You'll be joining the joyful explosion this thread will become.
  20. Heyman backs up story on Dodgers, continues to have strangely beady eyes. And he still hedges his bet by calling them a "long shot" instead of saying they're out.
  21. And apparently that guy is allergic and carries an epi-pen because of it, so that was a pretty legitimate, if not hilarious, concern.
