  1. love seeing Javy that high... also noticed they have Wil Myers listed as OF/3B? is that right or a mis-label?
  2. If the Chiefs franchise Bowe again, that means that Branden Albert would be available in FA. Would the Bears, if they re-sign Melton for something like 7 mil. per year and restructure a couple of deals, have the room to make a competitive offer for him? I assume that Albert, being only 6 months older than Long and iirc without the injury history, would be a preferable option...
  3. terrible penalty taken by Oduya
  4. Think that puts him in for CR and Mexico?
  5. I am not a fan of these new Nike jerseys like the ones Duke wore and Texas is wearing today...
  6. Read the Jordan article... and while there is a little bit of "back in my day" to it, I do agree that the level of competition that MJ faced when he was putting up his most insane numbers (37 ppg in 86-87 and then 35 ppg on 53% shooting in 87-88 and 32/8/8/3 steals with 54% shooting in 88-89) was quite a bit higher than it is now, and his teams weren't exactly stacked with Pippen and Horace Grant being rookies in 87-88.
  7. http://chicago.cbslocal.com/2013/02/15/illini-given-no-5-seed-in-mock-tournament-selection/ Not that it's overly important since it's media members and a mock selection, but it's nice to see that people do feel that Illinois is pretty securely in at this point. I think if they take care of business at home the rest of the way and beat NW and Iowa on the road (definitely not gimmes) and win a game or two in the BTT we could see them at a 5 or 6 seed, which was unfathomable 2 weeks ago.
  8. Everyone keeps talking about him being a lock for the number 1 pick... I know that he's a force defensively, but wouldn't most teams at least take a good hard look at Ben McLemore if he declares?
  9. I can see the Bulls rationalizing it as "We probably aren't beating the Heat this year if Rose has only been playing for a month and a half before we play them, so let's be extra careful with the future of our franchise and come back stronger next year."
  10. I don't think they're necessarily advocating being ok with him as your left tackle though...
  11. Anthony Adams' Sammy-Inspired page https://pinterest.com/spiceadams/sammy-sosa-inspired-pics/ unbelievable work by him... Love the tie btw: got this from Brett over at BN http://www.bleachernation.com/2013/02/08/that-curt-schilling-thing-definitely-wasnt-theo-or-jed-and-other-bullets/
  12. Yeah, definitely thought Sheehey's shot and Hulls passing up the 3 were huge mistakes by IU.
  13. good grief, they're calling every touch foul all of the sudden
  14. They just called a foul on Egwu for posting up
  15. Jurgen loves him some Jermaine Jones
  16. wonder if the Yankees would go so far as to pay him to say that in an attempt to void A-Rod's contract
  17. Johnny Roland was honored as an SEC legend during football season. For some reason the SEC feels the need to include Mizzou and A&M in this, and I can't really figure out why. It's just like the B1G showing highlights of Tommie Frazier at Nebraska when they talk about legends of the B1G
  18. That's a good looking logo
  19. Listening to Illinois game on the radio... pretty sure announcer just said "Brandon Paul with the money shot"
  20. I'm not saying I'd make the deal, but Upton is one year removed from an an fWAR equal to Castro's best two. It's not that insulting. But, that also supposes that Upton's injury issues will not linger... Hasn't he had shoulder problems?
  21. 5 on 3... gotta get one here. set the tone
  22. Don't think Warmack will last that long...
  23. wow... only gotta go 53 or so on the hail mary... easily doable
  24. 7 straight points to cut the lead to 21... Lol
