Leave Maroon 5 out of this

I don't get it.

That was supposed to be my joke when you were supposed to get all indignant about Russ Robinson
-
Sulley, I think the all star appearances of Rush and Chalmers speak for themselves. Self just knows how to make a guard a star. Russel Robinson is my early pick for MVP next year.

Not for everyone. :| I think IU may be getting some good news soon. Verdell Jones is trasnferring?

Is anyone remotely excited for this season?
SouthSideRyan replied to RegulusBlue's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
I'm not optimistic for today's game, but I'm still really excited for the season. We'd have to finish April about 8 games back to get me pissy. -
Purdue as number one? Laughable. They will be good but I dont think they are preseason number one good. Butler at number 3? Also laughable. OSU is a top ten team next year, and I think with what they are adding could be ahead of both MSU and Purdue in the BT. OSU's recruiting class is sick, but they're losing the best freakin player in the county. MSU is going to be better. Whichever of the 3 finishes in 3rd is going to be the best 3rd place team in the country.

You guys are boring, I was hoping to find a new hat out of this thread.

Early play of the year candidate

I'm pretty sure he called Maddux a cheater. he didn't say it explicitly but he insinuated that there was a player on the cubs that had cheated for a long time, and there's little question that he was referring to maddux. He said Maddux directly to a friend of mine in Minnestoa about a year before he said anything in public. -
And spring training, and Lou's comments, and last year. But yeah. Ok, let's go with the theory that he lost his confidence based on the meaningless spring training games, 7 PAs, and last year when he was fat and incredibly hit unlucky. What is the one day benching doing to remedy this again?

Based on 2009 and 7 PA's in 2010. Do the squirting flower trick.

I hope Koyie Hill gets the start tomorrow. Soto does not look like a major league hitter up there right now. He doesn't look like he has any confidence. I'm not saying he should be benched and placed behind hill or anything but he needs something to wake him up. Holy [expletive]. Edit: nevermind I hate getting into disagreements with you because you just post 2 word responses that don't directly address anything and call it proving your point. You're judging a player's self-confidence based on 7 PAs. I didn't think that needed to be spelled out.

So there is some percentage chance that any given loss will be the difference between playoffs and no playoffs. While it's true that an 0-2 start is far too small a sample to change any projections about the team's true talent level, the odds of making the playoffs have now dropped a little. That's important. If this team was projected to go 81-81, they wouldn't have had 50% chances to win these games, just like they wouldn't have a 50% chance in a home game against the Pirates.

his handlers are about to become his entourage. Do you mean his parents or his brother? They (the parents) were the ones who basically handled his recruitment. I know you're going to launch into a tirade about mercenaries and Hessians, but dude's entire family played at KU. And he was also the first one and done in school history. Zavea probably saw how well staying for extra years at KU helped the NBA chances of Aldrich, Rush, Wright, etc. and thought he had to get the [expletive] out of there while he was still in the lottery.

Are you ever right? I was right when I called ballgame in the 2nd inning on Opening Day. And Soriano got a fluke hit. One hit does not a slump break. You're an absolute clown.

Marlon Byrd is freakin fat

Holy [expletive] that was harsh Bob.

That's just Dempster swinging lefty

There's a very large list of pitchers I'd take over Samardzija...I'd probably take a 60-yr old Jesse Orosco over Smardzilla. Well you figure when Orosco dies on the mound you don't have to pay the full contract.
