    :rotfl: With that haircut I don't care who you are you're not getting any unless you force it. WTF is that haircut.

    Dmac is one of those guys who could shoot up the draft or could fall on draft day. I think he can become a very good NBA PG and is a top 20 talent but guys fall that shouldn't every year. Chase Budinger is probably the best example last year.

    Ugh. With the teams that will be going after him the cost will be wayyyyyyyyyyyyy too high. Vitters, Colvin and Theriot is an absolute joke in my opinion. They can and likely will get a heck of a lot more for him.

    You realize there is something called a mental age and Bradley is literally still a 10-year old temper tantrum prone kid in that respect. The word you should have used is "figuratively". It's ok to admit mistakes. I didn't make a mistake you just took it wrong. It's obvious he is physically not a 10-year old anymore making it pretty obvious what I was talking about his mental age. Sorry next time I'll explain it clear as day so you don't get confused.

    Who was the NFLer to get suspended for being pissy towards everyone? Let's see the NFL has always been very strict for hitting refs, put massive fines for flipping off fans and I would suspect Goodell would suspend for at least a season if not bar you for going into the stands with a bottle even though it was thrown at you by a fan.

    http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=5079777 Mwahaha Seattle sits down Bradley and tells him not to put too much pressure on himself. This reminds me of a little leaguer who is babied by his coach because he hasn't learned how to control his emotions. Bradley is literally still the 10-year old who blows up at the smallest things. I really wish MLB would be more like the NFL because he would have long ago been suspended and unable to ever play consistently because he has so many blow ups.

    Looks like JJ may go back on his word. Even if he declares he could still come back but I doubt he will because he is likely to be told he is a top 15 pick (whether or not that is a reality or not). http://www.jconline.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20100412/NEWSPM/100412017#Par3

    Well this pick is easy. It's got to be Jason Pierre-Paul - DE/OLB South Florida. If this is the scenario that plays out someone will trade up into the low 20's to nab JPP but this isn't the actual draft. In this scenario the Cardinals would sprint the card up to the stage not wanting to risk waking up before they can get the pick in and I as a 49er fan would be throwing my remote at the TV. Oh and if we get to pick 20 someone would not only want to trade up to get JPP but Bryant as well. Neither one of those guys will make it past the mid-20's. Unless someone the 49ers really like is available I wouldn't be surprised at all to see them trade down at 17 for someone who wants JPP or Dez. The 49ers have been one of the few teams to consistently make trades involving mid-to-late first round picks.

    1. He drove without a motorcycle helmet which is against the law (not that big of a deal to me though). 2. He drove without a motorcycle license (bigger deal than #1) 3. After the accident he said he wouldn't wear a helmet still which was a very stupid thing to say and he retracted it a week later after the NFL and Steelers talked to him. Although all relatively minor all of those are misconduct by the NFL rules. As for the Holmes comment and the Steelers I somehow had missed that he had a positive drug test. That changes things. However, Roethlisberger should still without question get a 1-4 game suspension (I would go 2).

    And you are going why?????????? Do everything you normally do on the games you have gone to, but do the opposite! He can't do both.
  12. CubbieBum
    I don't get this either. But hey a line out DP and the game is over! I'm guessing home opener and off day tomorrow is the reason for this. plus the heart of a good lineup could come up and our bullpen sucks. 8-9-1 if Berg can't get through those guys, why is he on the team? It worked just like the all right handed hitting line-up, but that doesn't mean it will next time. We've seen plenty of closers have terrible outings in non save situations. And we've seen plenty of non-closers have terrible outings in non-save situations at the end of games. I bet if you researched it the superior pitcher (the closer) does better in those situations but people tend remember the blow ups because they get caught up in having the closer only pitch in save situations.

    I don't get this either. But hey a line out DP and the game is over! Jesus. He has only pitched in two games coming into today and if he didn't pitch today he would have at least 4 days between outings. Pitching anyone other than Marmol here would have been the wrong move.
  14. CubbieBum
    Marmol has only pitched in two games this year and we have an off day tomorrow so yeah this is a great opportunity to get him work. If he didn't pitch today he would have at the minimum 4 days in-between outings.

    http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?ymd=20100412&content_id=9248434&vkey=news_mlb&fext=.jsp&c_id=mlb I would hope this jamming did not happen on his ill-fated steal attempt. Anyways this is good news. He may miss a game or two.

    It's a day for the Byrd's between the seagulls and Marlon's three hits.
  18. CubbieBum
    Excuse me but 4 runs allowed in 5 innings is way better than what our bullpen is capable of.
  19. CubbieBum
    "Right thumb inflammation" I can live with that.

    That was in no mans land, nothing the Cubs could have done about it Have better range? Nobody in baseball has the range to get to where that was That's not true. Baker was 6 inches from having it and he is is not a speed guy. This is not me saying it was a bad play though. They just couldn't get to it.

    Nady and Colvin = 2 HR's in 14 AB's Soriano = 1 HR in 23 AB's
  22. CubbieBum
    Oh Dear God DLee better not be hurt.
  23. CubbieBum
    Good God I want to strangle Doug Davis and whoever taught him to pitch that slow. I also want to strangle whoever sang that song WGN just played and whoever decided it was a good idea to use it.
  24. CubbieBum
    Geo making Lou look all the more stupid for putting Hill in as a defensive replacement late in games.

    For the Steelers to send Holmes away for almost nothing but stand behind Roethlisberger looks like a major double standard and at least bordering being racist. For the league to suspend Holmes before any conviction (and others) but do nothing with Roethlisberger when he has had two bad incidents in a year is pretty clearly racism to me. I don't tend to throw that term around lightly but this is awful. If Goodell is going to arbitrarily go against his rules whenever it is a white a franchise QB in trouble then he needs to go. I am all for what Goodell has been doing. Just because a guy wasn't proved guilty doesn't mean he wasn't doing things that aren't good for the league. Pac-Man was an example of that and he was suspended. Roethlisberger is an example of that he hasn't been suspended or even talked to. Be consistent Goodell whether that is doing nothing or always doing something.
