  1. chicago makes whatever choice they request.
  2. http://cache.gawkerassets.com/assets/images/11/2010/06/500x_120238381-a7d3eaf515092f61bd952cc2d73b4bb3.4c23b238-full.jpg
  3. Well, it's not like all they did was put Buff in front of the net. The Blackhawks are more than capable of winning games in different ways, and they did that this year.
  4. I'm pretty sure that they had already moved the winner's second match to tomorrow. He's listed as playing in a doubles match sometime today.
  5. Buff's specific playoff role will be a challenge to replicate with another player, maybe impossible. But they can still put some size out there.
  6. you're a loser I've been trying to think of a jenny from the block reference this whole time
  7. Rip off http://www.northsidebaseball.com/forum/topic?f=44&t=57658&p=2465899&hilit=humiliation#p2465899 I told you he wasn't a real Poster.
  8. Wait.........wut? :shock: I love Kane and all, but who can justify putting Kane over Crosby? Not to mention as a center? I could buy to a certain degree Jonathan Toews, but Patrick Kane? IDK. It's called marketing. The league has maxed out Crosby, they need to start selling Kane.
  9. Nuts & Gum doesn't even look like a Poster. When I think of Posters, I think of guys like chuck_cubs
  10. this announcer likes that italy is humiliated
  11. When I think of baseball player, I think of players like Colvin, etc. I would give some other names, but then I would get crucified for putting those guys' names in the same sentence with Colvin. My point with the "baseball player" remark was that when I look at Colvin, I see a young player who is eager for his opportunity, but still goes out and hits in a lesser role. And when he does start, he's got a hop in his step and it is just fun to watch him out there. I don't really get the same vibe from Kosuke, that's all. you can keep on going with this as long as you like as far as I'm concerned.
  12. and he does
  13. Isner can win here
  14. pretty big turn of events here
  15. what the hell was all that in the goal, did Pronger steal the ball or something?
  16. what were you saying about diving?
  17. Easily my favorite player on the team other than Toews and Kane. It sucks to see him go, but it had to be done. I do worry about trading away all our size (Buff and Eager) with one deal, though. The Hawks are designed for speed so I don't think it will be a big deal in the regular season. But when it comes to the playoffs, I think you need that size in front of the net to stuff the puck in. I think that was a huge key to the Hawks winning the Cup this year, and I think it was a huge reason why the Penguins didn't make it back there. If they can keep Ladd, he, Hossa and Kopecky are pretty big guys, and so is Brouwer, though I'm not sure what his status is. I think they have a couple big kids as well. Plus, they played almost all of last year without Dave Bolland, and while he's not all that big, he's a very solid 2-way center. They aren't all just little speed guys. Kane may be the only guy who you could describe as susceptible to physical domination. The NHL generally doesn't allow that anymore. Everybody has been talking about a lack of size and toughness on this team for 3 years now, but it has not come close to being an actual issue. They probably are going to need an "Eager" type player, but they aren't desperate.
  18. There's nothing inaccurate rambling about flopping. And it's kind of ridiculous to expect everybody to appreciate what other people like about a different entertainment form, which is all this stuff is. NASCAR is dumb. I don't care that other people find entertainment in it. It does nothing for me. Soccer I can appreciate, even if I hated playing as a kid (but loved indoor soccer). Let's step back a little from the "only fuddy duddy white people don't like soccer" and just enjoy the moment a bit.
  19. He's a guy who plays baseball, but not the definition of a baseball player.
  20. Eh, at this point I'm not sure I want them to win anymore. They are so far down, and back, and it's not like they've shown the slightest inclination to play better. Go for the draft pick and front office overhaul.
  21. Hmm. It still doesn't feel like his cold streaks in the past. Perhaps because he is not failing in as many meaningful spots or due to the fact that so many have already called it a season that it's less magnified. Either way, Soriano seems to be headed in the right direction these past few games. Other than an incredibly stupid baserunning error. Over the last 28 days he has a 663 OPS, although the past week has been much better. He also started the season slowly, so he's had the slow spots, and it's still only June.
  22. I've been pushing a Byfuglien trade since last year's playoff run elevated his perceived value, but I never thought they'd end up with a 1st/2nd for him and get rid of other money. I am a little sad to see him go, but it had to happen. Now I would really like to see them deal Versteeg.
  23. This team is reaching levels of bad that I never thought possible. A Cubs fan couldn't possibly say that with a straight face. I never thought this particular Cubs team would be this bad.
