  1. i like the new(ish) rule that regular season conference champs who don't make the NCAA tourney (ie lose in the conf. tourney) get automatic bids to the NIT
  2. They better have this agreed upon before the football season. I missed almost all of the Michigan games last year because of the stupid Big Ten Network. that's funny, cuz I saw all of Penn State's games because of the GLORIOUS Big Ten Network
  3. they can say he was just trying to clear the puck, but it looked like a Grade A Brain Fart to me. I have hard time believing he didn't shoot the puck
  4. either Corey or the Cubs couldn't decide what kind of hitter he was. he was probably Kenny Lofton but they kept trying to make him Ken Griffey Jr.
  5. Remember that cory is a "5 tool player" according to all of us a couple of years ago. Too bad those tools were pretty dull Actually, the tools weren't all that dull, except for maybe the contact part of the equation. The rest of those tools were pretty damn good. Just goes to show how dumb the five tool thing is. and dusty and crew made sure his tools would never ever be sharp again
  6. i'm pretty sure a computer can't comprehend Ozzie
  7. I don't remember a Cubs prospect (outside of Corey Patterson) in the past 10 years who the Cubs just let play without platooning, moving in and out of the lineup, or generally just jerking around.
  8. ...to poop on. get it? poop on/poupon! but seriously, it's good
  9. i'm getting errors after posting that are causing the site to not automatically redirect me back to the thread.
  10. I'm correctly in the Eastern Time Zone (in board preferences), but all the time stamps on the posts are an hour behind. guess Tim's new server didn't get the news about the early Daylight Savings Time this year EDIT: sorry, didn't realize you had to change it manually in your profile
  11. i just bought some horseradish mustard that i'm dying to try on something
  12. 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... Really? Yes, really. When was this figured out? I wouldnt have guessed it , particularly given the rant on Meph himself. If so, he loses serious credibility. Because while some of it is fair, most of it is just crass. yes, it's true. long story, but the blogger was him and now he's banned
  13. only one i can think you're missing (besides the parrot) was the Soriano shot off David Wells (the backwards trot HR that prompted the Young/Lee fight the next day)
  14. i have to say, i'm kinda proud of Penn State this year. no one will confuse them for a good team, but to lose your best player in game 3 of conference play yet still win 7 Big 10 games (including MSU, IU and twice vs. UofI) is pretty admirable. sadly, they're just not the kind of program that manages to build on any success
  15. hinrich sucks, but he does get the most ridiculous foul calls against him.
  16. 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...
  17. 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
  18. 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
  19. Penn State's guards went 7 for 34 if that makes you feel any better :D
  20. they'll be disappointed to find out he's not, in fact, left-handed (almost as disappointed as Hendry is)
  21. 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
  22. 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 :)
  23. 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
  24. so the conclusion is that undersized, white, former Bulls PG's make bad GM's? who would have guessed?
