  1. Why say this then? This combined with Nick's previous arguing that it made perfect sense for Rose to take the test in Detroit says he believes him.
  2. But seriously, you need to let go of this denial of somebody taking Rose's test for him. We've been through this, there is no reason to believe he took the test.
  3. I agree with Nick. Let's reflect further on KU's cheating
  4. So what exactly did Cal come up with that changed his mind so quickly? What a farce this guy is making of the NCAA. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/college/2010-04-27-ncaa-president-emmert_N.htm woops! Won't matter. Coach Cal is untouchable. The talking heads at ESPN don't even go after him. I get he's Italian and thus Vitale is in love with him, but what about Bilas and Gotlieb? Why can't these guys even question him? Gottlieb went after him early last season. I'm guessing he was told to shut up cause there wasn't much talk about it after the first few days he ripped him.
  5. oh shut up Nope, don't think I will. He's been the best Cubs for 7 years, and I like him as a player because of that. Why should I go into hiding? Let's just skip to the accusations of group think and get it over with. Stand by for mother's basement, head in a spreadsheet
  6. We don't have anybody who has a clue about fundamental baseball. We got a bunch of hackers, not enough hitters. The Cubs have the 10th most strikeouts in the NL
  7. Bet you were worried for a second you couldn't throw a tantrum tonight.
  8. You mean people who like good baseball players? Oh Hall7810 may have looked stupid the past 7 years, but his day has come!!!
  9. Yahoo doesn't have a clue, somebody help me out here.
  10. Billy Koch also said he wanted to shoot himself after he gave up a run in a playoff game.
  11. I traded him for Carlos Zambrano and Alex White in March '09.
  12. People were mocking Theriot for his lack of power, and yet are praising Castro for his ability to put the bat on the ball. I know the age difference, makes it more impressive on Castro behalf, but essentially Castro has been Theriot with better defense since his first game. Better defense, better plate discipline, and 4 times the ISO. And 10 years younger And he probably doesn't wear stupid Affliction shirts. Or name his son Houston.

  14. Ha. I never said I was concerned, I said I thought it was odd, that's all. What do you find odd? And why is it odd?

  16. Finally something I can agree with Mariotti on. That and Ozzie Guillen's a prick.
  17. Johan Santana has never won a playoff series as a starter. Pedro had stoped being "Pedro" by the time he won the world series. Roy Halladay has never even made the playoffs.
  18. No they weren't. *Snip Fredstats* 1 world series win says to me that having a "true #1" does nothing for you.
  19. To be a real number 1 in a 30 team league, why must you be top 10? During the regular season it doesn't matter much. Would you want to enter the playoffs with your best starter not even among the 10 best in the league? The Atlanta Braves had 3 of the 10 best pitchers every year in the playoffs and were heroic underachievers. Why aren't you hammering somebody on the Cubs offense for not being a top 10 hitter?
  20. Hey Madison Bumgarner, Sabes says you suck.
  21. Zack Randolph is actually a pretty good comp for what Cousin's career could look like. It's like Bill Simmons wrote in an article, " I don't want to be the guy drafts Cousins, but I'd love to be the guy that trades for him in 6 years." Weren't there like 15 guys who were the guy who traded for Randolph this past offseason? No, just one. And it ended up being a great trade. He had a very good year. I might've been thinking of Quentin Richardson. I know some overpriced load got traded to every team in the NBA this past summer.
