  1. Carlos Lee's ice cubes are better than your ice cubes.
  2. Top MLS salaries: Beckham - $6.5 million guaranteed Blanco - $2.67 million Marcelo Gallardo - $1.87 million Juan Pablo Angel - $1.59 million Claudio Reyna - $1.27 million Landon Donovan - $900,000 "Forty-six players earn the league minimum of $33,000. Among developmental players, 30 make $17,700 and 43 make $12,900."
  3. even rich people have to work on fridays sometimes isnt this a value game though? shouldnt the average joes be sittin there today? No, it's a regular date. If I was going to spend $70 for a club box ticket or $175 for a dugout box seat, I wouldn't do it in early April.
  4. Is "glut of third basemen" really the best the Cubs could come up with?
  5. Based on Lou's pregame show, he truly believes that the 4th spot in the rotation will make Hill better.
  6. It was definitely a "what the hell is he doing?" moment for me until I realized it went in. http://youtube.com/watch?v=LUnmaXVKZxI
  7. To be fair, Barrett's goal came in the 4th minute, a couple of minutes before Larentowicz was sent off. Blanco still looks pretty good for someone old enough to be my grandfather, not to mention mimic his running abilities. I did love the PK he drilled, though. He pretty much did a full sprint from about 15 yards back and nailed an absolutely perfect, unstoppable shot into the upper left corner of the goal.
  8. Clearly Hansbrough has diversified his game enough to win playa of the year.
  9. Come on, Fire. 4 goals won't do it for me. I want blood.
  10. -"This guy is NOT a clutch hitter. He is not a clutch hitter." -"His numbers would be contrary to that." -"He's not a clutch player" Three year splits: Overall - .273/.348/.450/.798 RISP - .317/.405/.500/.905 Runners on - .299/.380/.479/.859 His close and late numbers aren't good, but geez, do a little research. And by research I mean looking at the sheet of paper in front of you.
  11. Geez. I go into the shower with the Fire up 2-0 and come out with a 4-0 blowout late in the first half. They have really taken advantage of the gift the head official gave them by making it 11 v 10.
  12. Does it look like Soriano is running here?
  13. Preseason schedule: vs. Kansas City - August 7, 8, 9, 10, or 11 @ Seattle - August 14, 15, 16, 17, or 18 vs. San Francisco - August 21, national game on FOX at 7 PM @ Cleveland - August 28 or 29
  14. And the Bengals have cut Chris Henry.
  15. David- How's the infield crown? Were you much lower than field level?
  16. Some tidbits from Lovie: I sure hope the Hester talk is just smoke... By the way, has anyone seen confirmation that Rashied Davis has been re-signed?
  17. They better hurry, then:
  18. Here's the explanation for the previous rule: I believe I heard that the rule was put in to protect against poor playing surfaces with the thinking that there's no other reason why a snap under center would not reach the QB's hands.
  19. Please watch the language. There was a policy established back in the fall about playing off of his name and anything inappropriate is against the policy.
  20. The tension in this thread is almost unbearable.
  21. Some other interesting rule notes from the AP: -The playoff reseeding proposal was shot down before it was even voted upon -The forceout rule for receptions has been eliminated -Teams can now defer to the second half when they win a coin toss -FGs and PATs are now subject to instant replay -A direct snap from center that is untouched by the QB will now be a live ball -The 5-yard incidental facemask penalty as been eliminated
