  1. I wonder who the Chicago sportswriters will back in a latin v. latin fight
  2. I'm not sure the last time the nfl had a must-watch defensive player, maybe LT, but suh is pretty much in that category Clay Matthews. Im trying to decide whether or not this is a joke
  3. Also hearing that it is a possibility that the ACC grabs WVU/Pitt to replace Clemson and Florida State. B1G fans, what interest would the B1G have in any ACC schools? EDIT: FSU denying SEC rumor now
  4. I'm hearing that UNC had an offer to join the SEC, but declined it due to two things. 1) NC State was not included in that offer and 2) the school leadership is not keen on big-time college football right now. I obviously could be wrong about the offer, but still..
  5. Noooooo, please stay away from the ACC
  6. There's no way he actually retires right now................................. right?
  7. MLB: Best Slider: #1 Carlos Marmol AAA: No one AA: No one A+: Best Defensive 3B: Matt Cerda Best IF Arm: Junior Lake A: Best Defensive C: Micah Gibbs Best Defensive OF: Matt Szczur Best OF Arm: Anthony Giansanti I hadn't realized that the defensive reviews on Cerda at 3rd were quite so positive
  8. 19 and whatever you call DePaul. How would that schedule even work? I mean, two ten-team divisions and no inter-division play?
  9. Jesus christ. 20 team conference in basketball?
  10. Yeah against the Falcons and Packers. Packers first 1 sack away from leading the NFL in sacks. Falcons finished 22nd but are a formidible defensive team. The Falcons pass rush has improved this offseason, too.
  11. Are you just assuming the acquiring teams will ignore every other year of his career when evaluating him? If WSR forgets, why shouldn't the real teams?
  12. Atlanta comes close, too.
  13. Clabo back to the Falcons
  14. I was there tonight. Not much to say about it other than he looked just as impressive as his line indicates.
  15. Butch Davis gone from UNC
  16. This would be an interesting study, if somebody were to do it.
  17. I wonder if that would be a good opportunity to take a look at how Castillo's bat plays at this level, with either Soto or him playing 1B. I would love to see Castillo get a bunch of MLB AB's this year.
  18. I never said he was a key player. He has value to the team because he's cheap and decent. We likely wouldn't get anything worthwhile for him in a trade, so that defeats the point. Our division has solid teams, but no great team. That's why we can compete next year. Also, the Cardinals and Brewers are likely losing their superstar first basemen. Agreed, although I would not agree that Pujols likely leaves.
  19. Exactly. We would hardly get anything for him in a trade. exactly so there is no reason to suggest that he is part of our "future" like hendry said. He never said he wanted to keep him because he was cheap. If someone inquires about him you let him go if you have guys in the minors that can out perform him now. Its addition by subtraction. Obviously we should be open to trading him, but why publicly say you only want to keep him because he is cheap? He can easily be a part of our next contending team. He is replaceable, but a serviceable backup/spot starter. Between the four of him, Baker, Flaherty, and LeMahieu, Darwin is the only person that can back up Castro.
  20. Barney is having a nice season especially on defense. But he is nothing special. We have depth at middle infielder so there is no reason to keep him if some one wants him. The point isn't that we need him. The point is that he's a cheap, young player who isn't going to get us much in a trade. We'd just be trading him for no reason. He'll help the team much more by keeping him. There's no reason to give up on next season already with the payroll we have and the division we're in. really, you think barney is a key player to this team? guys like him, fontenot, and theriot are a dime a dozen. We have marwin gonzalez, and flarehety who can come up and probably outproduce him right now. other teams like the brewers, cardinals, and reds are stocked for years with their current players and farms system guys. they arent getting worse any time soon. The pirates even look like they can be good for quite a while. Exactly. We would hardly get anything for him in a trade.
  21. He seemed to have so much promise before the season.. [expletive] quade
