you were saying? Oh wait, baseball allows 3 outs per inning? Crap :) yeah, they changed that this year -
how can rich hill suck at the plate SO MUCH? aren't pitchers usually the best hitters in high school?

Sacrifice Bunts are sometimes good ideas. If Luke Scott had bunted, there would be two people in scoring position with one out. He did not and they had to give up two outs just to get the runners over. You're right, and had we had runners on 1st and 2nd, no out, last night it probably would've been a good idea. But you don't sac bunt with a guy who has only 1 GIDP since he came here, is hitting .289, and doesn't strike out very often. I realize that, I did not say it was a good idea with Kendall, I was saying that sacrifice bunts are not all evil. Derwood didn't say they were all evil either, but okay. right, i was specifically talking about bunting with Kendall. Why didn't we call that hit and run play last night?

sorry that i'm late to the party here, but THAT (kendall's at bat) was why sac bunts were so damn stupid last night

Northwestern plays Syracuse too? The Orange are working their way through the Big 10 it seems (Illinois this year, PSU and NU next year, etc.)

It's just amazing how bad these teams are. Cubs with this pitching staff should be running away with this division. It feels like 2004. MLB should come to the decision that the Cubs and Brewers can combine their teams for the playoffs. They take the Cubs pitching and the Brewers offense. That might give them a chance to not get swept in the 1st round. The Milcago Brewbies?

i don't think you know what you're saying. the # of managers out there worse than Piniella is staggering

Do We Really Want This Team to Make the Playoffs?

i don't get it -
A tie could still happen in the Big 10 now without a conference championship game. Wisconsin beats OSU, OSU beats Penn St., Penn St. beats Wisconsin. All have one loss, which one gets the BCS berth? Right nothing would have changed. well they've clearly figured out this problem in the SEC and Big 12....

Gonzalez was hired before Hendry even realized he was available.

Where would you prefer to talk non-Bears football?
Derwood replied to soccer10k's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
i think as long as your frame your posts as "pro-other team" instead of "anti-Bears" you should be okay. I wasnt' around for much of the game thread last week, so I don't know the circumstances of the moderation. i would hope that moderators would simply keep things civil instead of censoring any non-Bears posts. -
sometimes september call ups are a bad thing. lou doesn't seem to know what to do with all the extra players

no one? i don't think it was a 1-A mandate. i still thought it was a conference by conference decision I don't remember seeing a single team not playing 12 since that decision was made. Would you pass up another opportunity to make money? right. home/road inequality will never go away. Penn State "only" has 7 home games this year because they play @ Temple (which is really at the Philadelphia Eagles stadium which will have about 90% PSU fans in it). Last year they had 7/5 as well (ND on the road). The year before they had 8 home games. 11 or 12, that's less important than when teams play. OSU was lucky USC lost twice last year, as they were sitting at 12-0 for almost a month while USC kept playing, meaning the pollsters had more temptation to keep sneaking USC up over an idle OSU team

can we put "Astros" in the word filter please? it's about as funny as "Yankmes" and "Muskat"
