  1. we definitely need more photoshop threads
  2. lol guess again loser we freaking better be IMB! needs to get crack-a-lackin' then
  3. and since ownership isn't changing in th near future, it's hardly worth constantly bringing up.
  4. PSU at home against Minny today. I'm still hoping they can finish out 3-3, but the way they've played recently, I'm not counting on it.
  5. I just love the # of other players who are being interviewed on various TV and radio shows, all acting like A-Rod is some isolated case that we should all be ashamed of. If 103 other players also tested positive, there's a good chance that a lot of these interviewees are being huge hypocrites right now
  6. Explain. He didn't pull off any coups, but he didn't do anything unforgivable either. Even Tyrus/Aldridge isn't looking terrible. Thabo? Philly drafted Thabo and then traded him to the Bulls for Rodney Carney
  7. his successor will be MacPhail, so be careful what you wish for
  8. i would argue that sandpaper/spitballing has a more direct impact on a given game than any PED use
  9. not to mention allegedly juiced balls post-strike
  10. eckstein isn't bad considering that he's a shortstop. what's not to love about that 88 career OPS+?
  11. That's a myth. Baseball fans had come back before after strikes and they would have eventually come back again. The steroid era was a black eye for baseball, made a mockery of legitimate records that had stood for years and it will be looked at by historians like the Black Sox scandal is viewed now but no Selig can't do anything about it now (he had his chance) and is just posturing. note Wrigley attendance figures pre-1998 and post-1998
  12. I don't understand this at all. The Cubs are clearly the best team in the division. They've even added distance between them and the next best team. How can you not be excited? This team on paper is better than last's years team at this point. because outside of the 5th starter spot, there isn't much to pay attention to. Spring Training is 3x longer than it needs to be, and it's hard to get excited about baseball until we're a lot closer to the season. Who cares if it's 3 times too long? What are you going to do start the season in mid-March? I am a baseball fanatic. When baseball is on, I am watching. When the offseason arrives, I fall into a cocoon and hibernate with lesser sports like football and basketball to get me by. By early February, I am dying to get any glimpse of my summer warriors on a baseball field. You could start Spring Training on November 1st and I would be fine with it. start spring training 4 weeks later

  15. can we please make spring training be 2 weeks long?
  16. are we bringing this back or what?
  17. 14 point lead
  18. could've dribbled more
  19. When the trap works this well, you wonder why they don't do it more often
  20. missed the 10 second call
  21. nice shot selection
  22. that's a fine, hi-def image there
  23. that black beam that cuts into the shot is some pretty nice design work at Welsh-Ryan.
  24. look at those white boys pass. It's like Hoosiers 2009
  25. on pace to score 3.1 more points this game
