  1. horrible loss by Penn State today (to Rider). this team just cannot shoot. Geary Claxton got his (23 pts, 12 reb) but the team shot just 42% and shot just 11 free throws.
  2. this stuff bothers me...i'm 32 and could drop dead tomorrow. not my favorite topic in the world
  3. they said the same thing about Broadway shows when they were going for $225/ticket, but those shows are still making money hand over fist
  4. Penn State can't lose this week!
  5. That I disagree with this statement is a testament to just how bad this deal is. More than twice as much as Pierre's deal. Simply brutal. but Pierre is less than 1/2 the player Hunter is, which is saying a lot
  6. PSU lost by 7 to S. Carolina. played them tough, so i'm happy to see them not get blown out by a real team.
  7. Ridiculous is being kind. That makes the Soriano deal look good by comparison. Wow. However, it is easy to see why this came out of nowhere. Torii and his agent probably literally jumped on that contract offer. it's still not as bad as the Juan Pierre deal.
  8. Player A - .271/.324/.469, 104 OPS+, 192 HR, 711 RBI (11 seasons) Player B - .280/.329/.455, 100 OPS+, 164 HR, 623 RBI (9 seasons) One of these guys just got a 5 year, $80M deal from the Angels, while the other was traded to Detroit for Omar Infante.
  9. Penn State sees some national TV time today as they face the [expletive] on ESPN2 at noon
  10. You would know. i meant that it seems to be OMC vs. Every Member of NSBB Plus the GoogleBot on this one I think the YahooBot agrees with me....get it? Hardy har. i'm not saying you should stop pleading your case, just that you're getting ganged up on here
  11. technically, this thread was started first.

  13. i'm afraid this isn't an argument you're going to win, OMC
  14. Maybe ya been too busy chasing Matsui ya dope! that's also mentioned in the article along with this nightmarish idea: Theriot in CF
  15. But then Jeter shouldn't have been the AL MVP when people thought he should've won it instead of Morneau. except people thought Hafner should have won over both those
  16. Per Paul Sullivan, so take it FWIW: http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/cs-071120cubsbits,1,1272697.story?ctrack=1&cset=true
  17. I get the example you are trying to make, but Cobb was a loose cannon with a horrible and violent disposition on occassion, just a plain old hick douche....Tyson is an uncontrollable lunatic. Another difference is their status in a purely sports context. Tyson isn't even in the top 50 in a list of top boxers ever, whilst Cobb is generally always regarded in the top 5. Tyson isn't in the list of top 50 boxers ever? Seriously? BTW, my comparison with George Wallace was only in the context of the end of their careers (suddenly opening up to non whites). Wallace is probably a worse person overall, as he "became" a racist in order to win votes.
  18. do you think it's fair that the first thing people think about when you mention Mike Tyson is his out-of-the-ring craziness?
  19. Then don't participate. Calling a thread dumb doesn't add anything of value. kind of like creating a poll to further instigate more friction between two posters who have had threads locked and warnings issued from mods doesn't really add anything of value? The poll was not created to further instigate anything, it was a joke and everyone besides you has had fun with it. We get that you don't care for the poll, no need to keep mentioning it. Just ignore the thread. And a pretty stupid one at that. nope, don't say that dude. you're not allowed to have a contrary opinion in this thread
  20. you do this in a lot of threads
  21. and neither should anyone else
  22. There's no way that happens. Cabrera plays the most important position very effectively. They will try to trade Crede because of the uncertainty of his back and they have Fields to play 3B. Uribe will either move to 2B or be traded. you may be right. Rotoworld was speculating Uribe going to the Rays
  23. Then don't participate. Calling a thread dumb doesn't add anything of value. kind of like creating a poll to further instigate more friction between two posters who have had threads locked and warnings issued from mods doesn't really add anything of value?
  24. why were you hiding in her air conditioning duct?
