well, that's not much of a penalty. what if the 8th start throws up a -25 or something? that sure would work out nice for the person that used an extra start. i'd have been better off keeping my mouth shut in that scenario.
-
as mentioned in the chat, chuck has gone over his starts this week. i don't know what the penalty for that is. i know we've discussed taking away the best start of the week and i think that's the most logical solution.

i could make any number of boycott/mcdonalds/apartment complex grocery bills/nacho cheese jokes here, but instead i'm just going to wonder how it is that someone who expects to actually earn a living as a writer, thinks "black outed" is proper english. i mean, that is just staggering.

Wrigley Field Grass Seed/Turf Builder?
abuck1220 replied to Clem Fandango's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
oh man, that is classic roger. CLASSIC. -
signature material.
-
you obviously should be allowed to put him in somehow. think about it...if you couldn't put him in there, he would be literally unusable for the first 1/3 of the season since you can't stick him at RP because he is starting. that would make no sense. he should be made SP eligible too, so you don't have to bench one of your relievers to use him.
-
i actually like my team. infield is stacked (mccann, teix, a hill, rollins, wright) and my OF came together nicely with a pre-draft trade (span) and in the draft (granderson). pitching could be shaky though...if sheets is serviceable and bailey can continue to improve, i think i'll be ok.
-
there should be a thread to talk about the actual games and a thread for people to talk about omg i've got 9 of the sweet 16 still alive in my bracket that is for no money and that no one cares about.
-
by the way...i haven't been paying much attention before the uni game...has the "the big east is such a rugged gauntlet that it really prepares for the tourney" line been replaced with "the big east is such a rugged gauntlet that it wears you out for the tourney; ergo the big east is the best conference in america" yet?
-
It was one of the dumbest and most ill-advised shots I could imagine. It was worse than McConnell's banked-in three earlier today. what was so dumb about it? they couldn't run the clock down all the way anyway, so they were going to have to shoot it at some point. a wide open 3 by that guy was as good as they were likely going to get. their last few possessions where they ran the shot clock down resulted in nothing. i agree with snood...that was a bad matchup for KU. i knew uni would at least keep it close.
-
i like the nova guy slamming the ball down on the court. yeah, you showed robert morris who was boss!
-
solid showing by the best conference in the history of the universe.
-
brackins going pro, gilstrap's request for another season denied (would have likely left anyway), and now two other players (one starter) transferring. go back to the valley, mcdermott.

Re: Starlin Castro making decision tough on Chicago Cubs
abuck1220 replied to sneakypower's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Oh ye gods. I know the Castro boner grows daily, but the guy barely outhit Theriot last year while in A-ball and Theriot was in the majors. I hates me some Riot as much as any good stathead Cubs fan, but come on. Potential is the key word there. This year's team doesn't really excite me. Castro on the team would add some interest. I'm not really thinking out statistical strategies here, I'm just throwing out what I'd like to see. well, whatever the cubs can do to keep you from being bored... -
i bet he leaves anyway. He might, but his ball handling isn't close to NBA ready yet. He'd probably end up in Europe or the D-League. obviously. but he might be fine with that. and yeah, the dude can barely dribble.
-
i bet he leaves anyway.
-
brackins is so soft. see you in the d league next year.
-
wouldn't be surprised if he leaves after the season.
-
damn it, gilstrap takes some stupid shots.
-
a wide open 3 for james, two missed free throws, an easy bucket, a stupid shot by colvin, 3 pt play. that got away from them in a hurry.
-
the victim complex plays a lot better as a cub fan than as a notre dame fan, by the way.
-
please tell me notre dame doesn't have a baseball team.
-
the good news is, he doesn't have AIDS or a missing limb. now we just have to work on the not being terrible at pitching part.
-
it's iowa state. at home. half of iowa state's team fouled out and gilstrap was on one leg.
-
more like octagon of gay. lol kstate fans booing the refs off the court...you shot 42 FREE THROWS.
