Or he may not have shown up to take the test. Like I said, Rose isn't stupid. A. that seems like a stupid thing to do. B. According to the report, Rose took the ACT exam three times in the Chicago area and did not meet a qualifying score. C. This is a really pointless topic to be arguing over, I just don't see the need to defend Rose's fraudulent/non-qualifying test scores.

Or maybe Rose just got a 0

How would one fail an ACT? You are just given a number. I assume they're using "fail" as shorthand for failed to get necessary score to be admitted to a college. "Failing" for one player is differerent than "failing" by another depending on what their high school GPAs were. So hypothetically, (I don't know their admission guidelines) an applicant to Harvard, who scored a 30, failed the ACT? Well, there's no written standard for test scores for non-athletes. The NCAA requires (through a combination of GPA and ACT/SAT scores) a certain minimum standard to be met.

I've read this multiple times and still don't understand what you're trying to say. You and me both.

I hope Derrick Rose Jay Williamses himself He ain't that stupid. His SATs(or lack thereof) say otherwise You don't know that, since Rose didn't take his SATs. You are putting someone else's stupidity on Rose. Rose fails ACT 3 times

Hope he brings Parker with him.

Somebody get Mike Shaw's email and send him a bunch of pictures of Koshwal.

Mac Koshwal could've used a few years not at DePaul.

2 points, Electric Avenue

Guys doing lines of cocaine every other day = tragedy Look at Scottie Pippen's nose and tell me he's not on coke.

I wouldn't say this is a re-hashed discussion. The issue is that are so many variables involved that it's hard to give a short definitive answer. It does make it a really good topic though. The only thing I'll mention is high walk rates in the minors(especially the lower levels) without power(or even a high average) to support it are often unsustainable. The guy that immediately pops into my head is Dwaine Bacon. The lower the level, the easier it is to take advantage of those who don't know how to pitch yet/the Neighborgalls of the world. As those pitchers get weeded out/improve, you're left standing up there waiting for the walk, and when it doesn't come, you don't have the primary skills to do anything with it. Pitchers get the scouting report to pound the zone on you, and you're done.

I just want to know how much Sheed pushed that spread that he needed to help you guys by scoring that basket. Or maybe he just figured any lead less than 25 wasn't safe with the Bulls in charge.
-
Imagine how many more titles the Celtics would have than the Bulls if they weren't constantly attacked with tragedy.
-
I hope Derrick Rose Jay Williamses himself He ain't that stupid. His SATs(or lack thereof) say otherwise Well Jay Williams graduated from Duke University in 3 years, so if academic intelligence is any sign, most of us are probably dumb enough to "Jay Williams" ourselves. So you're saying Rose is more likely to do something even stupider?

I personally can't wait to see Peoriaman's batting average updates every time he stumbles across a thread about any player.

No team in the NL is close to the Phillies -
They can be suspended for things like if somebody in their posse kills a man, not if they hook up with a girl in a bar. What if I told you he wasn't married to this girl
-
you just lovvvveee to see him fail, don't you? Not really. Once he leaves us, I don't care much. Bradley, meh, I don't pay much attention one way or another. You've gotta be [expletive] kidding me

If you're gonna root against every expletive, you should probably stop watching professional sports

Those #s are worse than all those guys, and they're all superior defenders. -
Can't say I care for pessimistic NCCubFan. There are enough of us half-empty guys running around sir. Once you cross over to the wrong side of 50 (as I did this past December) and still haven't experienced a championship I think makes one a bit more pessimistic. Erik must be like 120
-
you just lovvvveee to see him fail, don't you. Who doesn't? At this point he is the only person on the planet outside of his mother and the Mariners rooting for himself to succeed. Mariners fans probably aren't as miserable as Cubs fans, and actually want the guy to do well. I do too. Rooting against him seems very strange to me.
