    At least pitchcs will enjoy at least 5 nights of eating sandwiches by himself while he depressingly watches the Stanely Cup Finals.

    Severely understaffed; basically no cops want to work in this area and take every opportunity to transfer out once they can. That's just because they stopped letting them [expletive] drunk girls they pick up. And the station is on Addison. I know because I had to stop there after I got mugged outside my old apartment...a block south of Wrigley.

    How can they win that? EA purposely didn't use any real names in their NCAA titles, and the "likenesses" are generally generic cartoon people. Maybe the handful of players who were on the covers of the games might get something, but Mr. Left Guard On Louisiana-Lafayette deserves nothing Well, when height, weight, ethnicity and number all match the guy who played that position for that team in that year, it becomes patently obvious what they did. Combined with the fact that you could go out and buy a download to populate all the names to what they actually were and they have a great case. The download has nothing to do with it because it wasn't coming from EA, but yeah, the fact that the Duke PG just happened to have the same skillset as their PG that year along with his physical features, uhhh yeah, you're selling that guy's image. And to Derwood, the guys on those covers were always guys who were done with their NCAA eligibility one way or another.

    Arbitrary endpoints are fun. What if you slice it to include today's game. Or the games right before that 3-6. You introduced the "pythag holds true no matter how you slice it" idea. It doesn't. The back and forth on this is silly because nobody thinks the team without the inevitable sell-off is a 59 win team or an 83 win team. Pythag may be more predictive than actual record after ~40 games, but that doesn't mean it's a great predictive tool. Our pythag projection dropped from 83 to 75 wins in the span of 7 games.

    Except that's not really what anyone's saying. Just that they aren't as bad as their W-L record, because their Pythag was both significantly better and more predictive. That's what Kyle literally just said.

    Unless you slice it at the time that everyone was going around saying how decent this team was because omg run differential. 3-6 with a -19 run differential since then.

    He's probably our most valuable non-player employee. uhhh lol what Ok, behind McLeod
  8. SouthSideRyan
    They want to do original content. They came out with their first show a month or 2 ago
  9. SouthSideRyan
    He's probably our most valuable non-player employee. And even including players he's gotta come in the top 10

    I don't think id label him a slow starter based on last year's numbers and the assumption that he'll wind up hitting well in the 2nd half this year

    FWIW, I honestly think this is not only the bottoming out point, but that next year is going to be the best since 2009. You mean we're going to win 72 games? Huzzah! We won 75 in 2010 Whoops was thinking this turd sandwich PLAN started in '11 post withdrawn

    Yeah and over 25 years it wasn't that bad it was typical bad stats use from him

    http://espn.go.com/college-football/story/_/id/11008001/sec-ponders-potential-move-division-iv-ncaa-provide-autonomy Between this and everything else going on, the NCAA sounds like it is on its last legs. Can't decide which of those is funniest

    The third "way" convinced me
  17. SouthSideRyan
    Lol

    I think I know someone for this...I will put you two in touch! Not usually what you want to hear from wexy

    I wonder if those optional assignment waivers for Parker are a gentlemans agreement to not make a claim or if they don't count for a paternity replacement
  20. SouthSideRyan
    Do you have a link to that? I see nothing online saying as much and the site has 3rd party vendors peddling their stuff on it
  21. SouthSideRyan
    #PTR I think these MLB Auctions items are all for charity. Well, crap. Don't worry, that's not true. The stuff like the pink bats are but there's no indication this is Barney has pink shoes up there with a note under duties and taxes saying all proceeds go to charity, no such note for this embarrassment

    Farce isn't funny when it's true tom. You're killing my twitter

    Your Mount Rushmore of _________ is the worst trend in sports talk in the last 10 years

    The next time Brett sees "reason to be concerned" will be the first ETA I see I'm responding to something from a month and a half ago
  25. SouthSideRyan
    Definitely calls for a code red
