  1. Thank God, NCCub showed up to post that picture so you troglodytes could get my awesome joke.
  2. Paul Maholm, all star
  3. Starlin Castro will be better than everyone but me thinks.
  4. Emphasis mine. The specimens would not have been sent on the same day by any FedEx in the area. Emphasis mine. This is the only language in the agreement about where the collector should not leave the specimens and testing materials. Seems to imply that it's understood at times the collector will need to store the specimens somewhere beyond a FedEx location.
  5. This is really what it comes down to. All Brewers fans should kill themselves. So, keep living their lives exactly how they were before? But faster.
  6. Seeing as the test was conducted after the game, it looks like Braun must've claimed he couldn't go.
  7. This is really what it comes down to. All Brewers fans should kill themselves.
  8. Ahhh so that's why synthetic testosterone showed up. Tupperware is renowned for that type of stuff.
  9. Harris is going to kill it for Indiana next year.
  10. So does Mackey Arena and Williams Arena count as our home court too? :P MSU comitted four fouls during halftime and Travis Carroll already has two for Sunday night. He looked at Zeller funny on the TV. How can you not look at Zeller funny. I mean, look at him.
  11. Just for proud Mizzou alums, Mizzou and Paige Laurie: Top 25: 4-3 Top 50: 8-3 Top 100: 14-4 No losses > 100
  12. Ran out of time and only got through the top 11 of Pomeroy ratings. ETA: Or maybe I just totally skipped them because I was too dumbfounded by Wichita being ranked 8 so I jumped right over #9.
  13. HOLY [expletive] [expletive]
  14. i really have to think that mlb was completely blindsided by this "taking the sample home and putting it in your fridge is unacceptable" argument. or the arbiter was a complete moron (very possible!), but you would think that presenting information on how this is standard operating procedure in this and other industries that do this sort of testing would be enough to stifle the argument. hopefully mlb just had no idea this was going to be something they had to discuss and was unprepared to talk about it. if that's not the case and the arbiter threw out the suspension in spite of the fact that mlb cogently argued that everyone involved did exactly what they were supposed to, that's a lot more frightening. Yeah either they were blindsided or this will be the seminal decision that will mean all future testing will be done early enough to get the samples to FedEx. It's really sort of scary that the guy followed protocol and they threw out the results. He followed protocol of CDT. Either the CBA didn't have a clear protocol, or CDT wasn't in line with said protocol. Or the arbiter was an idiot. ETA: None of this changes the fact that Braun was on something, unless you're Will Carroll and believe in spontaneous generation and Pete Rose in the Hall of Fame.
  15. My guess is there's no specific wording in the CBA saying what constitutes a timely manner or a chain of custody intact, or whatever it is that he won on so one arbiter could view it as an acceptable process and another won't.
  16. So anyway, if CDT has instructed their collectors to keep the samples in their homes rather than taking them directly to FedEx and the arbiter rules that the CBA says otherwise, doesn't pretty much every person who tested positive after their respective FedEx was closed have a case?
  17. It's not just Brewers fans either. The anti-steroid testing/Libertarian zealots were out in full embarrassing force on BTF the past few days.
  18. I'd say MSU by 6. I hope they win by 70.
  19. Any chance you could white out Coleman's name?
  20. I hope you lose by 70.
  21. Maybe for a charity wheelchair game.
  22. Not as bad as he thought it would be is not the same as liking it. He's also basing the entire thing on the assumption that catching metrics are way off and Yadi is a 4 WAR player. Everyone knows that Yadier Molina was a 0.3 defensive WAR player the last few years. What this article presupposes...is maybe he wasn't?
  23. Waiting on a conference call, so I'll do some manual calculations, apologies if I've miscounted at all. (Subject to change as ratings do) UK Top 25: 6-1 Top 50: 7-1 Top 100: 12-1 No losses outside top 100 Ohio St. Top 25: 5-5 Top 50: 6-5 Top 100: 10-6 No losses outside top 100 MSU Top 25: 5-3 Top 50: 9-3 Top 100: 13-5 No losses outside top 100 Kansas Top 25: 7-3 Top 50: 10-4 Top 100: 16-5 None outside top 100 Wisconsin Top 25: 2-6 Top 50: 5-6 Top 100: 8-8 None outside top 100 Syracuse Top 25: 3-0 Top 50: 9-1 Top 100: 17-1 No losses outside top 100 UNC Top 25: 4-2 Top 50: 8-4 Top 100: 12-4 None > top 100 Wichita St. Top 25: 0-1 Top 50: 2-3 Top 100: 9-3 1 loss outside top 100 (#147) Georgetown Top 25: 4-2 Top 50: 7-5 Top 100: 10-6 None > top 100 Duke Top 25: 6-1 Top 50: 7-4 Top 100: 15-4 None > top 100
