sadly, by the time the get their ish together on offense, guys like Urlacher will be past their prime or on another team

we need more threads about this

until he's not

i'm not certain, but i think the tiebreaker in that case would be their record against the top four teams. basically, whoever has the better combined record against IU, PU, MSU and WISC. and does the #1 seed always face the 6 vs. 11 winner, or do they reorder so they play lowest surviving seed?

assuming Ohio State and Minnesota finish with the same conference record, how do they determine who gets the first round bye? they are 1-1 head-to-head. if the Big 10 were to end today, Wisconsin would be the #1, Purdue #2, Indiana #3, MSU #4 and OSU/MINN #5/#6. First round matchups would see OSU/MINN vs. Northwestern, PSU vs. UofI and Iowa vs. Michigan and a guaranteed second round matchup of MSU vs. OSU/MINN

i emailed him

San Diego 1B?

all I see in both the main and printer friendly version is a field of white. so i guess there are no prospects this year in the NL Central

I am pretty sure it is $179 or add supefan for another $50 Yeah, the "Early Bird" rate is ONLY 4 installments of $44 and change. They keep jacking it up each season. Wonder how they justify the big increase this year? I got it for like $109 last year....but that was because I also have my phone and internet service with my cable company so they gave additional discounts for that... i have a bundle deal with my phone/internet/DirecTV but got no such discount. LAME

a "facelift" isn't going to cut it. I think they need to gut it all the way down to the clubhouses and start over. as vance said, almost every seat in the lower level that's under the roof has brutal sight lines, and not just because of the poles. they are going to want modern luxury suites, etc., etc. there is no way to put a bandaid on this baby

Or does it not turn on until Opening Day?

Doesn't seem to serious. this never would have happened if he was batting 5th

i'll do another update on rosters after round 10

Fresman PG Talor Battle had 28 points and 13 boards for PSU last night. was also like 10 of 13 from the floor. 6 conference wins isn't bad for a team that lost it's best player after 2 conference games. If Claxton hadn't been hurt, I think PSU could have gone at least 8-8 in conference if not 9-7

i just skipped from page 240 to 245. did i miss anything besides dextermorgan vs. wrigley23 BS?

first off, Soldier Field was a dump. A dump that had been changed 3 or 4 times before the spacecraft landed on it, so it's not like some 100 year old relic that had never been touched prior to the 21st century. secondly, look at some photos of ballparks from the early 20th century. they more advertisement signage than most minor league parks do

dag nabbit, you got me. i really hate soriano and am making up numbers to smear his good name. i'm not actually trying to prove a point or anything. you are clever
