Derwood

hinrich sucks, but he does get the most ridiculous foul calls against him.

Let's hope so. I'll even take Pie is going to be a SOLID player! He'll be solid and then progress to fantastic. I have confidence in Pie producing. The key is playing time and this year is the year for him to get that. Meph disagrees. :mrgreen: who's Meph? oh, right, the nsbblol blogger...

can he? if he could, i'd say yes, right away. he could definitely play center if he needs to, to give pie a break. it would also give us an opportunity to end the great ryan theriot experiment. maybe we could trade him to minnesota, they seem to like players like him. he has not played SS at all in the majors

here's hoping Daryle Ward isn't pulling a "Nomar 2005" here by hitting a ton in the spring and then nothing in the regular season

Penn State's guards went 7 for 34 if that makes you feel any better :D

they'll be disappointed to find out he's not, in fact, left-handed (almost as disappointed as Hendry is)

The refs did all they could to get Duke back in the game, but their shots wouldn't fall. A total phantom travelling call on a rebound/scrap for the ball that had Roy Williams nearly on the floor

i was wearing my ARam jersey at the time of that HR. I was in a hotel room in Cleveland, waiting to go the Jake to see the Tribe play the D-Rays. My daughters were napping so i ran around the room doing the "silent scream" when he hit it. I was totally pumped after that. Epilogue: Cleveland won the game that night on a walk-off shot by Ben Francisco :)

Then people outside of the SEC should feel honoured to be watching to BEST COLLEGE FOOTBALL CONFERENCE in the nation. And if anybody still thinks RB from Illinois is better then Jones, then.......I must be loopy. It wouldn't surprise me....if Jones gets taken in front of the RB from Illinois. You must be loopy. Felix Jones is the fourth best running back on most draft boards. I'd easily take Felix's teammate, along with Stewart and Mendenhall. But man, what a great honour it is to watch the SEC. It's such a privilege. bama fan...what have i been trying to tell you all? i hear Alabama once had a coach with a snazzy hat

so the conclusion is that undersized, white, former Bulls PG's make bad GM's? who would have guessed?

yeah, he was pick #60. someone PM him

speaking of which, could WGN buy the naming rights? maybe, you know, get all the games back on the Superstation in the deal?

He's a BS maestro. In this postmodern world the less sense one makes, the more one makes sense. Or so it seems. and being a former ballplayer guarantees you a job much like being a former NBA player guarantees you a spot on any ESPN NBA studio show

Petrick is on the 40 man roster, so for him to be sent back to the minor leagues he has to use up one of his options. The rest are non-roster invitees, so they can just get assigned back to the minor league camp. OK, but why does he have to actually go to Iowa right now? Why can't he use an option and just go to minor league camp in sunny, warm AZ??? he doesn't go to Iowa, he stays in AZ at the MiL camp did we change trp AAA affiliates? I thought it was Pittsburg? No. We changed AA affiliates last year. well that went right over your head, didn't it

up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start

remind me again....bench guys do or do not accumulate stats each week?

he was on deck when Hank broke the record

Nah, that was a sober pick, SON. haha, I wrote that and I was like, "maybe i should edit that cause it looks like i'm making fun of his pick instead of laughing at him for deleting the formatting for the small text". but then I decided I liked it the way it was. SON ha ha ha. i immediately went and looke Harden up to see if he was out for the season or something. i couldn't figure out why you were making fun of the pick

dusty doesn't understand that hits are factored into OBP. it's the only explanation

it's an "unearned" trip to first base

lighten up Bateman

It not so much he missed on "selling high" on the Knicks picks, it just think his picks were questionable then, and even moreso today. You pass on both LMA and Roy to take Thomas. Very questionable. technically, he picked LMA and then traded him for Thomas

is the HR guy batting 1st or 5th? :roll:

Isn't the order Derwood, Andy and myself (twice)? yeah, he didn't go out of order. He went after earth2sean, then I went, so next it will go Andy, RRx2, Andy, and me again
