  1. I bet sosas appearance fee is too high.
  2. I fear the same. And it'll be explained that it's ok because the cubs aren't going to compete in 2015 anyway
  3. Bernie's picture looks like he swallowed a canary That's a big canary
  4. Lol, they're not gonna get anything done on renovations next year either are they
  5. No we all missed that hatchet job from a michigan blog about groces awful crime of not recruiting a 2 star guy who committed to the school he was moving from
  6. No they won 97 in spite of it
  7. Must be going on another safari
  8. How did Purdue ever [expletive] hang with these guys?
  9. Nothing really new that I heard, but it was still worth the listen. Reiterated that Baez isn't "knocking down the door" yet and won't be until he's dominating AAA. Well, he did outwardly say that they went as far as they were willing to go on a few really good free agents (that on its own doesn't mean that much) that really interested them even if they weren't the perfect age within the context of saying that the planned pursuit of Tanaka didn't keep them from doing anything else that they wanted. I don't quite know how to express my reaction to this but it's certainly not positive it's probably (hopefully) just a lie. coming out with "yeah we had no idea our offer would be tens of millions of dollars short so we passed on the entire offseason to make it" would not exactly make him sound super competent. I'm not sure "we're not willing to pay market rate for anyone" is much better
  10. Simpson was evidence of the overwhelming arrogance of the hendry front office
  11. I don't strongly disagree (the best way would've been for us to win a damn game) but I don't think I would've started him over anyone who actually started. Were they gonna go 3 man or 4 man in that series? I think he was set to pitch game 4, but I would have had him pitch game 1. Harden [expletive]

  13. It also depends on how cheap were going to be. If we want to avoid super 2 status, 2.5 months seems like the safe play. My fear is they're a held down through late April '15 because...ya know
  14. What the cardinals do this year really doesn't affect us at all. The bigger concern is how these 25 and unders are doing when we're competing
  15. http://bball.notnothing.net/big10.php?sport=mbb I've been dorking around with this quite a bit. Iowa can still fall as low as a 10 seed Only michigan has clinched a bye
  16. For just Melo. He's not signing for 3/$36M. He's signing for max. Melo can't sign for $20 million with the Bulls. Isn't that over max? I thought he has already said he is open to signing for something less than max money. He has seen what LeBron and the rest of the big three did. They took less to win. It's his time to do that. melo's not taking 12 million a year lmao gtfo Well how else do you expect them to fit him and Kevin love under the cap?
  17. This is not even close to being true. He's not even 2nd best...in his division
  18. Who ever said it was infallible? Pomeroy himself had said Wisconsin was overrated in the system in years past.
  19. Yep I was initially blocked from the braves only
  20. Illinois's 5 seed dream lives!
  21. It's simultaneously ridiculously impressive by Thibs and a little depressing that we came just about as close to beating the Heat in a playoff series with last year's ragtag bunch as we did with the fully healthy Rose/Noah/Boozer/Gibson/etc group in 2011. Sounds like DRose is the problem
  22. Found it http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ktjk9HsnMA
  23. Didn't haluska have one?
  24. It sure would shock the hell out of me
