  1. No it wasn't. Just because they gave multiple venues the same name doesn't mean it was the same venue. Similarly, Madison Square Garden isn't the same Madison Square Garden from history.
  2. The most important person to fire is Hendry, but you might as well let Lou go with him and have the new GM start fresh.
  3. You should be banned for saying anything positive about Hendry even though the "trade" of Bradley for Silva plus Byrd has to be the most one-sided trade in decades. Lol you are a piece of work I'm glad you understand my point of blaming Hendry for everything that's wrong, but not giving him credit for what turns out right. It doesn't matter how right any individual trade was, the team is crap. GMs puts together a team, he's had 8 years to put them together, and in 8 years time the team is barely over .500. If Jim's teams won 90 games a year, there would be no reason to bash him. Unfortunately, they don't, because he sucks.
  4. That would be excellent. Not for me. Supposed to be at a graduation party for a friend a couple hours away that day. I suppose I could be an [expletive] and make them put the game on. But as usual, I'm the only hockey fan among these people. Or I could beg off and really piss off my wife. It's actually her friend. Um, it's the western conference finals, you would be an expletive if you didn't put the game on. That shouldn't even be a debate in your head.
  5. espn stats says 2 in 5 games.
  6. Whoever mentioned that Ron sounds much worse this year, I have to agree. He's lost, and Pat isn't even teasing him about his mistakes like he always used to, which tells me he's aware that Ron is losing it.
  7. Context? One man shot another man after his dog peed on the shooter's lawn. what would have been more appropriate? "Urinated"? tinkled Generally speaking US news outlets don't say pee, they would say urine. I'm not offended or anything just don't think I've heard that word by newspeople before.
  8. On a similar note, this article includes a line I doubt you'd see in most US papers Most papers I read don't even allow the word "sucks" to appear in print. The self censorship is fairly prude.
  9. Context? One man shot another man after his dog peed on the shooter's lawn.
  10. the news update guy just said "pee" on the radio. I don't think I've ever heard that.
  11. What was the big deal about a decrepit vacant dump being torn down for housing projects?
  12. http://soccernet.espn.go.com/world-cup/story/_/id/5183323/ce/us/organizers-chide-brazil-leaving-ronaldinho-cup-roster&cc=5901?ver=us how does an official justify these statements?
  13. There probably isn't anything else worth discussing, which is why there is no point in making this in the first place, and really no point in all the obsession with the history and poetry and mythology and general nonsensery of baseball's history.
  14. It used to be a bit more than that back in the Jack Brickhouse era. There was always an interview on the show, just like there was back then on the Lead-Off Man show. And guests received a nice little watch for appearing.
  15. I always got fooled into watching the 10th inning show as a kid, but it was nothing but commercials and 5 second segments of Harry reminding us what the score was.
  16. yes. If boston wins Hawks will play friday, if Philly takes it to 7, hawks will play sunday.
  17. I'm not sure about his contract situation, but if I was Vancouver I'd think about a coaching change... Too much talent on that team to implode at home 0-3 in a huge playoff series for that town and those fans. They aren't getting rid of Luongo, probably not breaking up the Sedins. You can make the case that the internals on that team are not strong, which I would think tends to point at the coach... So claim the Canucks are still better all you want, Bobby. You're part of that team too, and looking at it from the outside, you just didn't measure up to Q. They have a stud goalie in juniors, which could intensify the calls to try to trade Bobby. Isn't his big extension starting this year? That would have to be a really tough contract to move.
  18. In what I read he wasn't saying the Canucks were better. I believe the quote was more like he didn't think the Blackhawks were necessarily better than Vancouver, but maybe smarter. Essentially he called them even with Chicago's discipline/smarts being the difference, and while I'm still a hockey novice, I'd have to agree with that sentiment.
  19. What are the chances this is Cashner's last AAA start this season? 5%, 15%?
  20. Lebron James would never allow his father to be killed due to his own gambling debts.
