    i don't know if i like Figgins' "Comparable Batter through Age 29" better of Bip Roberts or Kevin Seitzer

    the best thing about that thread is that the one guy who brings up relevant stats is completely thrown to the wolves

    this game would be more fun if you could reorder it before adding your own
  4. Derwood
    the funny thing is the Wang would be the #5 starter on the Red Sox, but will ace up the Yankees

    we've been clamoring for Lofton since the trade deadline

    i sited OPS+, not EqA (which I don't have ready access to, admittedly). Last season was off the charts as far as playing above his career numbers.
  7. Derwood
    Figgins is almost exactly average. 99 career OPS+

    O RLY? Santana Beckett Matsuzaka Schilling Buckholz/Wakefield/Tavarez

    It's a good start! I'm sure USC is also playing ND....is OSU playing any other BCS team? You might want to check other thread's for OSU's past schedules; they always play at least one BCS team, and it's usually a good one. Florida also plays FSU every year, and I believe they play Hawaii next year. And USC plays ND every year. It'll be in LA next year. Florida plays Miami, Hawaii and Florida State next year. Didn't know they played Miami again. That's certainly not ducking people, regardless of how strong those programs are. Especially when coupled with an SEC schedule. There are many culprits in weak scheduling. But OSU, USC and Florida are not among them. it wasn't ducking people when they scheduled them, but they're catching Miami and FSU in down years. If we're going to penalize OSU for Washington, we'll have to do the same with Florida if those two programs go 7-5

    Cubs don't have one prospect that's as good as any of those six

    Notre Dame will ALWAYS get an at-large BCS bid when the qualify. ALWAYS I never understood the whole Notre Dame thing. Years ago I dated a gal who went to Notre Dame, all her brother and sisters did, both her parents, most of her cousins, aunts, uncles etc also attended and graduated. Her parents had a nice house and over the fireplace (with three spotlights on it) was not a family potrait and nice painting: it was a giant photograph of her dad shaking hands with Lou Holtz at some booster club dinner. I think she dated me just to tick her parents off: I was a heathen Illini student. the first class you take as a freshman at Notre Dame is "Entitlement 101"

    Jeepers...every coach is using another school to get an extension and more cash. except JoePa

    lol wow he has 30+ years of karma ready to bite him in the ass I guess I dont know much about Csonka (sp?), is he a a-hole? He probably wasn't originally, but the obsession with being the only undefeated NFL team has turned all those '72 Phins players & coaches into smug jerks. there is a disputed claim that the '72 Dolphins throw a party every time an undefeated team loses late in the season. they think they're the greatest team ever, despite going 17-0 with a schedule that featured, what, 2 teams with winning records? ooo IC. so its the '72 fins team (and celebration) you dispise. I can understand that. I thought you just hated Larry. larry has sorta been the "face" of the 72 team

    Easily my favorite quote in the whole article. see: John Paxson

    i'm sure stupid cub fans would disapprove of the free upper deck tickets because god forbid we have a banner or sign on it that advertises something.

    i'm kind of rooting for New England to go undefeated now, if only because maybe Larry Czsxqnka might take a toaster into the tub with him

    re: Appalachian State Schools are in 1-AA because of attendance, not because they're bad. just saying

    um, if anything it would have been offsetting interference calls on the final hail mary, as one of the Ravens WR's totally powerslammed one of the Patriots safeties right, but why didnt they replay the down? dont they replay the down in that instance? yeah, i don't know. just correcting what the blown call was

    this was not the blockbuster i was hoping for

    it's not like Kansas chose to not play good conference teams. that's scheduled by the conference also, who doesn't love the Holiday Bowl? every year they pretty much guarantee a combined score of 80+, and this year is probably no exception

    where is the option for stadium collapse?
