    Just for you. You've gotta love cornerbacks dishing out great hits. Word is, despite the top LB recruiting class in the country, Major Wright might actually replace Spikes in the linebacker scheme next year. He'll have to tack on a good twenty or more pounds I would think to make that jump to outside, much less inside linebacker. Though he might be our best hitter.

    Well he is the manager of the AA Altoona Curve nowadays. Topps meant as a manager, obviously.

    What about my Matt Walbeck Future Stars topps baseball card?

    SAC BUNTS! BETTER THAN HOME RUNS! Put that pressure on the defense baby, which is of course more important than scoring runs.

    Addison knows about humping sheep? My god, wait until she gets to high school...

    Yeah, I have been keeping my eyes open. I'd suggest signing him to a rehab contract, but I'm sure that bridge is burned. I'd rather sign him for 4.9 mil the next two years than Aaron Miles, but that's me.

    R+RBI is the greatest stat since 3 run saves.

    Anyone wondering (like me) where our boy Mark Prior is going to end up - if anywhere.
  10. Mephistopheles
    at least he can still play. mark prior really fell off the map.

    His posts are amusement for Addison, who can't read. The smileys work well. Ironically, he's posting them for Tim because of the same reason.

    they played in the mwc...and it doesn't open up a pipeline at all.

    Well Dominique Franks is a [expletive]. Hopefully, for IMB!'s sake, this doesn't turn into Jean-Francois or Hayes.
  14. Mephistopheles
    get out of here with your satanic post.
  15. Mephistopheles
    No, that was Taylor Teagarden and Preston Clark. And Tim Lincecum. And Micah Owings. And Khalil. I dont think there are any other notable ones recently.

    MORE BACKUP INFIELDERS YES!

    The Golden Retrievers didn't catch this one: http://www.baseballamerica.com/blog/prospects/?p=1835

    I can clinch it with a win by Texas.

    i didnt say they played well the first three possessions.

    No, the reason they lost was struggles on offense. Mike Johnson, the right tackle shifted to left tackle and was knocked out of the game in the first ten minutes due to injury. Alabama's offensive line was down to their third and fourth stringe tackles and it showed. They had no running game and were sacked nine times. Their defense kept them in the game the last three quarters. Their offense wasn't able to come back. No Andre Smith had a huge impact on the game's outcome. JPW was harassed all night, sacked eight or nine times and they had no running game. I understand their offense struggled, but their vaunted SEC defense got torched in the 1st quarter. Not really. One drive started inside the thirty-five. The other two drives were made by a couple big plays on passes deep -- passes they tried and couldn't complete later in the game. It was more or less two good plays by Utah and a penalty. The defense didn't lose the game.

    There's a decent chance he gets a September call-up if the Cubs decide not to go through the sp experiment after last season's disaster. More likely though, he starts in the minors the full season to work on his secondary pitches and command. Then he's converted to the pen early next year in Iowa and is in Chicago by July, assuming everything goes well and he stays healthy.

    im not belittling the mwc, utah or any midmajors. the mwc is on another level compared to other mid major conferences. theyre basically a bcs conference. just because they beat alabama it doesnt mean theyre better, or even close to, oklahoma, usc or florida. just because they beat alabama it doesn't mean they're better than alabama. at this point its a fair assumption to say theyre not better than usc, florida or oklahoma. they basically beat four good teams all season long, and dominated none of them. florida, usc and oklahoma dominated good teams and played more good teams. you're just kidding yourselves if you think utah can beat one of the top three teams in the country more than ten percent of the time.
