  1. ?? If the Brewers win the WC, game 4'll be on at 9:30 central. That's 7:30 pacific.
  2. Last week, I traded for Thomas Jones, Darren McFadden, and Jake Delhomme. I didn't start D-Mac, and he had a huge game, earning 35 points. So this week, I thought I'd outsmarted the football gods. I decided to start D-Mac. "Ha, I'm so clever", I said to myself, as I hastily benched Ronnie Brown for Darren McFadden. :doh: He had 4 rushing TDs and 1 passing, and could've gotten me 52 points. I had Thomas Jones today, and I thought I could still pull out the win, but the Jets didn't hand off to Jones for all of the 4th quarter, so I ended up losing by 5. My team's 0-3, and I could've been 2-1 if I had made the right moves. If you haven't noticed by this post, I'm not too good at fantasy football. ;)
  3. It's gotta be Soto for most people, but personally, I love Woody. He's been around for so long that I just kind of see him as the face of the Cubs.
  4. http://tbn2.google.com/images?q=tbn:8Riqarb7X2Oz6M:http://www1.istockphoto.com/file_thumbview_approve/3767552/2/istockphoto_3767552_eat_my_hat.jpg However, I agree the Cubs'll carry 11 pitchers.
  5. Yeah but they have that word filter that will block a lot of the words I am thinking :-). Holy [expletive] [expletive], I didn't know we had an automatic word filter until now. I thought people were just saying "Howry" and "soapdropping" as minced oaths, and were typing it in themselves.
  6. What's the typo? Maybe it's something really obvious that's flying over my head, but I don't see it. :-s EDIT - Oh, haha, I see it. I guess I'm too tired right now to read. I should be heading to bed right now.
  7. http://i37.tinypic.com/efhp9x.gif It doesn't matter what the Cubs do anymore standings-wise, as HFA is all wrapped up, so it'd be interesting to follow some of the other games around the league. Obviously the Brewers game (along with ours) will have a big impact on the NL wild card race. Another huge game is the White Sox at Twins. The ChiSox are 2.5 games up in the AL Central, and this is the start of a 3 game series.
  8. He doesn't want to, he wants to start Game 3. Dempster, Harden, Z, and Lilly sounds good to me.
  9. Woohoo, Thomas Jones time (hopefully). I have him on my FF team.
  10. WHOA, WHOA, WHOA. So I minimized Gameday for a couple minutes to read an article, and I come back, to see this: Awesome. :lol:
  11. Couldn't get it to work earlier. It would get about 80 percent loaded and then just sit there. I've had to work off Sportsline tonight. Yeah... that's what it's doing for me. Is there another one out there better than ESPN ?? I don't think so. MLB GameDay and ESPN Gamecast are the two best in my opinion, but I've used Foxsports.com, and it's not too bad. GameDay is working for me, and I'm using it on Firefox. Maybe your browser is the problem?
  12. Geovany Soto - Brewers 3 run homer to tie Derrek Lee - The DPs. Ryan Theriot - Go ahead single against Rockies (or was it tying?) Mark DeRosa - Go ahead HR against the Rockies in the comeback game Mike Fontenot - The Rockies comeback game Henry Blanco - The Rockies comeback game Aramis Ramirez - Grand slam against the Phillies Alfonso Soriano - Back to back multi homer games Jim Edmonds - 2 homers in an inning vs ChiSox Kosuke Fukudome - Opening day homer Reed Johnson - THE catch against the Nationals Ronny Cedeno - Grand slam against the Mets Felix Pie - The HR against the Mets Carlos Zambrano - No-no Rich Harden - The trade Ted Lilly - The almost no-no last week Jason Marquis - The almost no-no against Blue Jays Ryan Dempster -Striking out the side in the All Star game Carlos Marmol - The first 2 months of the season Just some I can think of right now.
  13. I wasn't really able to follow the Blackhawks much living in North Carolina with Dollar Bill's policies about TV/radio, and the fact that they haven't been much good recently, so no nationally televised games. But with the recent upgrades into the 21st century (WGN will have games, even though it's local WGN, and WGNradio.com streams games), it looks like fans across the country will at least somewhat be able to follow the Hawks. I don't know as much about hockey or the NHL as football,basketball, or baseball, but I do know some about the Blackhawks, and this year is very promising, to say the least. Can't really say much else since I'm not too hockey-smart, other than go Blackhawks!
  14. I agree, except for the bolded part that I changed. I think the Phils will beat the Dodgers.
  15. One side kept it off the field (i.e. coaches, not players), the other chose to target the opposing SP. I think that's weak. Or smart. Or both. It's a smart move to try and mess with a pitcher, but it's weak to complain about a freaking tattoo. It's a good move if I was a Marlins fan, but it seems really annoying and petty to me since I'm not.
  16. http://vasi.net/uploads/posts/2007-12/1197556437_89802gibbon_monkey_dog_tail.gif I should caption "FAIL" on that.
  17. Len, remember this? http://blogs.trb.com/sports/custom/weblog/wgnsports/2008/06/shaving_face.html If the Cubs win 10 games in a row or win 90 or more games total this year Bob should shave his mustache and Len should grow one. Ahem :D http://bp3.blogger.com/_2cyKC8lumRQ/SEbBhSh-EmI/AAAAAAAAAXw/gIXkM5O4RGY/s400/lenkasperwithatickler.JPG Anyways, thanks for the congrats. It's great to see someone who is connected with the team and has a high-profile job, but can still stay down to earth enough to talk with fans.
  18. HAHAH, is anyone else watching WGN? Did someone hear that accidental censorship? :lol: :lol: Someone said "country", but there was a little pause that is used to censor before "try" :-))
  19. I didn't get this on FOX, but I hear they're showing it. WGN is also showing some coverage.
  20. http://img516.imageshack.us/img516/5987/shamgk6.png Ok, now which one of you made this? I found it in my favorites, and it's gotta be from here. :lol:
  21. FYI, if you weren't just watching this on Fox, put on WGN. Coverage right now.
