  1. Those Arizona uniforms are some sort of awful
  2. When Pete is lucid, he's sorta fascinating to watch
  3. Happy to see Northwestern get in and win a game, but this, this is not a good matchup
  4. Right, I like the hire. A little surprised at the timing of it though. Pretty damn quick hire. How many coaches could they have interviewed?
  5. Don't be that guy
  6. I was 21-11 in the first round. Yikes, that's the worst I've ever been
  7. well, to be fair he's still got under 300 MLB PAs but yeah the legendary 13 playoff games or whatever have kind of sealed that deal I'd say he's not a "star" yet. Certainly he is among Cubs fans, but it's going to take more for him to rise to that level (which he undoubtedly will)
  8. Baez just got hit by a pitch and I about died. Replay shows that it glanced off his forearm and hit the knob of the bat, so not bad at all, but.....ugh
  9. I usually go closer to chalk but decided to "call" some upsets, I just guessed the wrong ones.
  10. Terrible flagrant 1 call in this Arkansas/Seton Hall game
  11. Updated playoff matchups as of 3/17: WSH vs. TOR MON vs. NYR CBJ vs. PIT OTT vs. BOS CHI vs. STL SJ vs. CAL MIN vs. NSH ANA vs. EDM
  12. Oh man, now he needs to start over
  13. Derwood entering something without any prior knowledge or expertise? I simply do not believe it First time for everything
  14. I wouldn't want to face that Wild team in the playoffs, though. That team is a PITA
  15. I was 11-5, but I don't know that I watched a single game beginning to end this year. Mostly guessing
  16. It's a football school first and always, but when Matta gave them some really good years, the fans got used to it, and now they're growing irritable
  17. He's also missed the tourney for two straight years and a third straight would bring out the pitchforks.
  18. Seriously. He's had the 2nd or 3rd most successful program in the Big Ten during his tenure (only MSU and maybe Wisconsin can compare) and a couple of down years and he's out? The big knock is that he's a great recruiter who sucks at developing players. So if he recruits a Conley or Oden or Russell, he's good. But if the recruits are less ready from the start, they never get better
  19. Thad Matta looks like he will survive another year, but the consensus is that another mediocre season next year and he's toast. Patience is worn thin in these parts
  20. The mic drop has potential
  21. I attended an opening day in the late 90's and sat upper deck behind home plate and just ate cold wind for three hours
  22. One of the times I've seen the Cubs play the Nats in DC, my brother and I were sitting right above the LF corner and just mercilessly made fun of Ryan Church all night. We were basically the only people in the section, so it wasn't subtle at all. We were having a blast...until our mom yelled at us to "leave that nice Church man alone." THANKS A LOT, MOM; NOW RYAN CHURCH HAS THE UPPER HAND. My one and only bleacher game at Wrigley was against the Marlins and while Brad Penny was shagging fly balls during batting practice he was taking horsefeathers from everyone. It was fun, though, because he would give it right back
  23. if you [expletive] stay away I could win the nsbb group this year When have I ever done well in any NSBB contest ever?
  24. Are we not doing a bracket group this year?
