  1. very little but receivers do occasionally virtually come out of nowhere
  2. One day he could be Bryan Lahair.
  3. Female soccer player goes berserker on opponent
  4. http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/chi-cubs-trim-roster-demote-randy-wells-travis-wood-20120329,0,6622909.story
  5. To be fair, only about half the bullpen will consist of major league arms.
  6. Jed said today that the pen wasn't decided yet. Marmol, Wood, and Russell are locks, and I haven't paid enough attention to who else is still in MLB camp. De la Cruz and new guy Camp are probably in the mix.
  7. Baker???????????????? Starting 1B
  8. Lame Lenney poured acid out there in a drunken fit of suity frat boy shenanigans
  9. last team the cubs played at wrigley last year Sure, but that's not the point. Nobody's looking at that sign in the offseason, why bother changing it in the offseason? But why was it Brewers centric in the first place? I've seen them sort of tease opposing teams, but that looks like an ad you'd actually see in Milwaukee.
  10. Yeah, the age makes me less excited about the deal, but are corners really that likely to drop off considerably in their early 30s? My biggest concern is that all three of Claiborne/Fitzpatrick/Jenkins will be off the board by the time the Titans are on the clock, leaving us with Jason McCourty and Alterraun Verner as our top 2 corners this year (and a middle of the road FA signing we'd likely make). Maybe I'm being swayed by need too much, but a third rounder for a guy who just turned 31 doesn't seem like a bad deal at all. Unless he's already started showing signs of decline, which I guess is what I'm asking. After RBs, yes, I'd say corners are the most likely to drop off in their early 30's. It's a straight up athleticism position where a step is all it takes.
  11. What's with the Brewers centric Miller ad?
  12. So much hilarity. I always kind of liked Donovan, but he's really shown himself to be quite the tool since leaving Philly, imo. He was unfairly slaughtered in Philly and has done nothing since to prove his doubters wrong.
  13. U G L Y You ain't got no alibi You're ugly
  14. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2012/03/29/mcnabb-says-robert-griffin-iii-doesnt-fit-with-shanahans-offense/ McNabb thinks Washington will fail with RGIII. He bases this on the theory that Washington wasn't able to tailor their offense around his skills, and that Shanahan has lost more than he's won with every QB since Elway (but doesn't include himself on the list).
  15. If this team was any good it would be kind of cool to have a pitcher like Wells available for duty in AAA.
  16. I certainly wouldn't want to give up a 3rd round pick for a 30-something CB unless he's a clear-cut elite defensive back, and I really don't think Samuel is anything like that anymore.
  17. http://deadspin.com/5897441/by-one-measure-the-saints-were-the-most-violent-team-in-2011 dirty saints
  18. Ha, yeah. The Colts pick is a mortal, ahem, Luck . . . boooooooooo
  19. Forget the Tokyo game, did people realize the Marlins open with a 1-game series at home against STL? If Miami doesn't hit a HR in that game we'll have to wait almost 2 weeks for their next home game.
  20. well, it showed up on espn mobile this morning
  21. There's a headline about Cespedes's HR. But yes, ESPN is notorious for ignoring stories they aren't broadcasting themselves, unless it's too huge to avoid.
  22. http://www.cnnsi.com/2012/baseball/mlb/03/28/si.mlb.2012.preview/index.html?eref=sihp&sct=hp_t11_a0 SI has the Cubs at 66-96.
  23. 2 really great things just happened
  24. I've always wondered why this never came up as a solution myself. I guess the NFL thinks there would be too many ties that way, and the players definitely don't seem to want to play multiple OT's like there are in other sports. But it makes sense, and it would almost completely ensure that both teams would get the ball (if you let a team control the ball for 8 minutes even with say 2 timeouts, you have less of a case for saying you didn't get a chance). I see nothing about that that makes sense.
