so if illinois had glen davis, you're telling me you would want bruce weber to tell davis to change his style of play? That would be ridiculous, but I wouldn't enjoy watching Illinois play nearly as much as I have. It's why I loathe the NBA. And comparing Glen Davis to Shaq is foolish. When you're 6'8 and fat in college you can get away with it cause college teams are undersized, when you're playing against elite big men who are 5 inches taller than you, you can neither push them around or shoot over them should you get positioning. Davis will be a huge bust. But Dee Brown will be rookie of the year, right? Cuz the NBA is a perfect setting for undersized, streaky shooting guards.

Interesting difference in referee style these two games. LSU and Texas were beating the tar out of each other and there were no calls while Memphis and UCLA got called for looking at each other funny. I agree with the assessment of Aldridge. He looked great on Thursday, but got killed today. SouthSideRyan may not like Sean May basketball, but as far as NBA prospects go, the Bulls could use 300 lbs of ass in the paint. Works for Shaq, right? You think he doesn't get called for offensive fouls now, in the NBA he can knock the entire other team down and won't get called. And I still prefer it to college teams (coughillinicough) who jack up 3's all game. Move the 3-point line to international distance and see how that changes things.

LSU has a serious shot at winning it all. Their confidence is so high right now and every team will be spooked by Thomas' shot blocking. I'd love to see them play UConn in the finals
-
I had them first! yes, but I'm a convert. Too bad Thomas and Davis won't be there next year (though hopefully one will be a Bull)
-
LSU is my favorite team ever
-
I think Davis shot the 3 anticipating Texas wasting their last foul. The didn't (clearly). They were lucky to get the offensive rebound.
-
I literally jumped off of my couch on that last sequence. HOLY S#*% what a game!
-
Can we stop talking about the stupid Illini game? For chrissake, get over it.
-
i think we knew that before today -
Aldridge vs. Thomas/Davis is going to be frigging awesome.

It should be the "Old Style Bleachers" but OS probably couldn't afford the naming rights. There is NOTHING like drinking an Old Style at Wrigley. It is one of life's greatest pleasures. It's due to the ingenious system of pipes at Wrigley that connect the pee-troughs to the taps on the 100 level :lol:

Iowa St. hires McDermott and other coaching changes

No one on the east coast takes the ACT. They take the SAT. Just saying. -
I don't know why, but I find these WGN spring broadcasts boring as hell. I just can't get into them.

If LSU, UCLA, UConn, and Florida win my Final Four stays intact. If UCLA, UConn and Nova win, plus I finish my time machine in time to hit Glenn Davis and Tyrus Thomas in the knees with a tire iron just before the Duke game, my Final Four will also be intact.

Fixed

Dear Lord, not this s#!* again.

I wanted to punch whoever was doing color for the 'Nova game in the face. EVERY time the coach substituted he had to say "it's just brilliant the way he is substituting offense for defense at every opportunity." Then they show a graphic showing that BC had made 7 substitutions in the game and 'Nova 72 subs, and I'm thinking "Yes, and the announcer has mentioned the substitutions 89 times."

ELITE 8 SCHEDULE: Saturday- 4:40 pm EST - LSU vs. Texas 7:05 pm EST - Memphis vs UCLA Sunday- 2:40 pm EST - UConn vs George Mason 5:05 pm EST - Villanova vs Florida
-
Anyone who picked George Mason to reach the Elite 8 was either: a) Stupid b) Stoned c) A Homer No basketball analyst on earth would have guessed this. Good for them. I almost hope Washington beats UConn so we can have a mighty GMU/WU Regional Final
-
I think a winning record with an ERA under 4.00 is a somewhat reasonable expectation for Duke. No way he has a 1.80 ERA over 30+ starts

New photos from inside Busch III (Thurs 3/23)
Derwood replied to mjohnson71's topic in General Baseball Talk
Plans for the new Washington Nationals park look exactly like Busch III and GABP. We've replaced donut-shaped cookie cutter stadiums with these now. In 10 years someone will build a perfectly circular multi-sport dome and people will think it's great and retro. -
That LSU vs. Texas game is going to be unreal. I can't wait!

Astros Want Bagwell to Retire

How is that NSFW language? The most profane word in there is" nuts". other chats on the site have strong language -
Why oh why did I go to bed at halftime of the Texas game?
