  1. Sullinger was red-flagged by several team doctors after his physical
  2. that post was like Duke Nukem Forever
  3. 1/10 Poor effort. Seems like something WSR would think was a funny troll post
  4. Agreed. I guess you'd hope Beal or Kidd-Gilchrist falls but I just don't see it. Cleveland is supposedly trying to move up to #2 to draft Beal, so he's almost guaranteed to be gone long before #7
  5. Whenever I hear Colin Cowherd on the radio, I picture Skip Bayless' face. Makes perfect sense if you think about it
  6. But in a 4 team scenario, it's possible (nay, likely) to have 2 teams from one conference represented, which means you would have the champions of a major conference completely left out. This also doesn't really give the Boise States or TCU's THAT much more of a chance. The committee is more likely to pick an 11-1 Ohio State over a 12-0 Boise.
  7. OKC is so overmatched
  8. It's going to be so exciting see 2 SEC teams in the playoffs every year, leaving the committee to pick between 10-2 Ohio State, 10-2 Texas or 11-1 USC for 2 of the other spots. Then, because they're going to use the BCS bowl sites for the Final Four, the SEC and PAC 12 teams get annual home field advantage. The only way this works is to eventually get to 4 super conferences. The conference title games serve as the first round, then the four conference champs duke it out in the Final Four
  9. any substance on a ball will change it's rotation
  10. especially if the group of people in the room is some horrible mix of AD's, media members and former coaches
  11. Not even close. This is going to be a cluster [expletive] of massive proportions
  12. I don't understand what is so hypocritical, or why people have a problem with what they did. They knew he cheated and was easily bustable, so they had him busted. If he was so stupid to openly cheat with one team and then pull the same stuff while facing them, that's his problem. Hypocracy: "It's ok when you do it for me, but not ok when you do it for anyone else." What Washington did is the very definition of the word. Should Peralta have cheated? Absolutely not. Does he deserve the suspension he's about to receive? Absolutely yes. But Washington letting him get away with it for them, but then busting him as soon as he does it against them was crappy. If they were ok with it then, they should be ok with it now. End of story. So the Nationals should have let an opposing pitcher have an illegal advantage against them for some [expletive] "loyalty" reason?
  13. A team beating another team 3 games in a row has happened a lot of times in the NBA playoffs. To be clear, those were my odds, not Vegas, I imagine those are closer to 12-15 Its just never happened in the finals What makes the finals unique? no idea. Maybe the switch to the 2-3-2 format? All I know is that teams that go up 3-1 in the finals are 30-0 all time

  15. 9:1 odds is pretty generous for something that's never happened
  16. Dickey has pitched back to back 1 hitters and has given up 1 ER over his past 6 starts (0.18 ERA). The guy is going to win the CY at this rate
  17. I'm falling way behind. Someone must be injured
  18. There will always be a group of super fair weather fans who root for all the "best" teams. I work with a guy who is a Heat/Yankees/Patriots/UK fan. I'm sure he'll buy all new gear next year. Which, of course, means he's a fan of nothing. He's a fan of being a fan

  20. We've chosen to make our DL punchless
  21. What's Jeff Pentland up to?
  22. I hope he really is starving. He probably has some leftover chili
  23. Hyperbole is literally the worst thing ever
