  1. So do you think it's bold or is it as much of a no-brainer as you're arguing it to be? Either way, nope, not happening. And I counter that they'd look like short sighted idiots (SSR is going to get mad at this post) if they broke camp with him. Why would I get mad at that? I'm pretty sure I've said almost the exact same thing. If they felt there was anything he could do to break camp with the team in 2015, he should've been up in August 2014 along with everyone else.
  2. It was 10-2 because Illinois was mugging everyone. It was the old Izzo style, foul every possession and argue each one of them so eventually they won't call them all. Groce was arguing the foul on Egwu where he was holding a guy back with an outstretched arm the entire time he went after a loose ball in clear space. He was arguing because the Iowa guy(I don't know, one of their white doofs) hooked him first.
  3. Because most times service time has nothing to do with holding a guy down 3 weeks. Justin Grimm has spent parts of 3 seasons in the majors yet, he wouldn't be eligible for FA for another 5 seasons.
  4. I was pretty sure the rules said > 10 days, but I have seen the same reports as you. Three weeks is more than enough to get that control. I think it's 12 days, Brett's been saying 9 games(due to off days) for the last 8 months.
  5. Because the refs were making terrible calls and they knew it so they let him go. The non-charging call where Iowa actually got an and 1 on the alley oop was particularly awful. I'm still not sure what the call even was there.
  6. Ideally this would have happend a couple months ago, and the Bulls traded for Rondo. That would've been fun.
  7. Fran is a raging penis. Groce might have been midlly perturbed that there was a 10-2 foul disparity while Woodbury pushes off on every rebound, swings his elbows violently once he gets them, sticks out his knee on every screen, and tackled Rayvonte Rice for a total of 1 personal.
  8. Do Bill Walton's partners always loathe him like this guy does?
  9. Send in Morgan to take an elbow from that goon he swings them wildly on every rebound
  10. And if they could kick out that hillbilly in the front row in the yellow sweatshirt that'd be aces
  11. Just caught up to live. Woodbury is such a POS goon
  12. The 1.5M was a penalty, not a draft expenditure.
  13. Poor Kyle is going to vote for the same guy from #5 until he actually gets picked around 11. Why is Mejia back in the poll again?
  14. Mckinney's career walk rate is 10.3% and was better than that last year. Almora's is 3.6% and managed to be worse last year.
  15. The stats give the edge to Hill. He was so damn good with the Pistons.
  16. Can people not drive on their periods now?
  17. What does that even mean? Ricketts quote, not your post.
  18. They do still have to go to Norman.
  19. It happened until 2003, but I don't think it has happened since then, even the past few putrid years. It happened in 2013.
  20. Don't like seeing Weber win, but do like seeing Kansas lose, especially with Cliff Alexander's stellar line.
  21. And Swisher wasn't really a Moneyball pick. Everybody liked him.
  22. Castillo traded for some too old A ball reliever. WSR will be intrigued. Wood traded for an organizational top 20, maybe a former high pick. (Don't like this) Jaxon kept as a long-man until he's DFAd in June.
