    By never ever ever using tabs. You have to do the spacing manually. thanks, i'll try that

    I made a list in Notepad and had everything tabbed into columns, but when I copy/pasted it into the CODE tag, the alignment was all messed up. How does Fred keep his so tidy?

    what happened to Theriot?

    NEWSFLASH: Marmol wasn't going to K every hitter and never give up a hit or a run the rest of the year

    I just got home and am floored that this game is actually on in my market

    so we're all cool with Lee now, right?

    I thought he said he was going to see Cuban, not Stuart Scott?!?! he said lazy eye, not glass eye

    Illini fans should be thrilled. If there is any sort of karmic balance in the world, Eric Gordon getting drafted by the Clippers is sure evidence

    Personally, I never considered Bonds to be a great average hitter (do some people?). A .298 average isn't hugely impressive for an all time great. Among those considered to be all time greats (going with nicknames for the hell of it): Really? Batting Average? all he said was bonds doesn't have a great batting average compared to the all time greats. i don't think he was saying that it was a great stat, though. it's not a great stat, so why use it? show me how Bonds ranks in OPS or SLG

    i know it wasn't to the same extent as Ted Williams, but wasn't Ron Santo a somewhat "unliked" guy in his playing days, at least from the media side?

    I know something that all of the HoF voters have in common:
  15. Derwood
    There's a guy like Michael Beasley in every draft (Although maybe not as good as him) but when you have a great point guard like Derrick Rose in a point guards league, you have to pick him. A big(ger) guy that can both score inside and outside and that has phenomenal rebounding skills? I guess a guy like that comes around every draft. I agree with you on Rose, but to totally dismiss Beasley as a "guy that comes around every draft" is really bad analysis. at his size (compared to other NBA players at his position), won't his rebound numbers go down?
  16. Derwood
    even if he's serious (about playing for free), the union would never in a million years allow him to

    YAWN
  18. Derwood
    if you're referring to me, that's not what I was saying. I was only pointing out they had similar numbers in their final years of college.

    The Cards are so lucky.....they have this rookie catcher who never hit at all before last year in AAA and now he's the leading vote-getter in the NL at his position. Oh wait, that's us But they do have this over-the-hill 38 year old scrap heap CF who is hitting the snot out of the ball. Nope, us too. Oh, right, their light-hitting SS who everyone wanted to be replaced in the off season who is leading the team in average and has a bazillion multi-hit games. Um. Must be the mediocre reliever turned lights-out starter who is undefeated at home. No, not the Cards?
  20. Derwood
    It's cause it's at their crappy ballpark. coupled with their overall "meh" effort against the O's

    It is when your 19 year old PG is extermely more talented then your current PG. you assume. there are zero guarantees that collegiate success translates to the NBA (there are too many examples to list). I'm not sure throwing him into the starting role on a team with playoff expectations is wise. Early failure could screw him up for good. LMAO, are you seriously suggesting that there is a remote possiblty that Hinrich could be better than Rose? Last I checked Rose doesn't like motorcylces, so I have no idea how this could be even humanly possible. Hinrich isn't even a true modern PG. I think Rose will definitely be better than Hinrich. I'm just saying that starting him Game 1 may be unwise. Interesting stat: Hinrich (Sr. Yr.) - 14.8 ppg, 5.0 apg Rose (Fr. Yr.) - 14.9 ppg, 4.5 apg Personally, I hope Hinrich isn't even on the roster by Opening Night I could care less about Rose's college stats becuase of the system he played in. You cold care less? How much less?

    for whatever reason, i'm far less excited about this series than I was about the one last weekend
  25. Derwood
    Because throwing a 19 year old PG with one year of college into the starting role while pushing your veteran multi-millionaires to the bench is good for the team? A lot needs to be sorted out.
