    The Cubs were 6th in the NL in walks last year. And if they were bad at drawing walks, Cameron would certainly help that. And I think just about every fan of every team thinks their team's offense is all or nothing, when there's usually nothing to support it.

    This is garbage, TCU is probably the best team in the country.

    Wins have been the #1 standard for the effectiveness of a starter since baseball began. Really? The Cubs had a pitcher last year that was 0-3 after 7 starts, which also happened to be his first ever 7 starts. They should have just kicked him to the curb because he sucked, eh? In 5 of those games, he left giving up 2 runs or less. Think about that for a minute. His ERA was very young Greg Maddux like during that entire 7 games and he didn't win a single one of those games. He ended up 12-10 with a 3.05 ERA, 10th best ERA in the National League. Joe Saunders went 16-7 this year with a 4.60 ERA, and his record was better than Zack Grienke's 16-8 with a 2.16 ERA, so by your calculations, Joe Saunders is better than Zack Grienke. Awesome! :stickman: Name 5 HOF starting pitchers who do not have winning records. Go ahead..we'll wait. Bruce Sutter, Rollie Fingers and Satchel Paige. If you're talking about single seasons, well pretty much all of them. What any of that has to do with anything is beyond me. When's the last time Zambrano had a losing record? There are 68 pitchers in the hall of fame. 41 have worse winning percentages than Zambrano. 19 have worse winning percentages than Kerry Wood.

    I don't know if it's the new toupee or some sort of makeup he has on, but I didn't even realize that was Bill Self.
  5. SouthSideRyan
    Is Oregon middle of the pack? They're terrible.
  6. SouthSideRyan
    That should be a first down.
  7. SouthSideRyan
    Graduating or exhausting their eligibility?

    A Tebow-like celebration for Bama
  9. SouthSideRyan
    Most years they wouldn't, but there's a dearth of viable candidates this year. There won't be an eligible at-large team from the Pac-10, ACC, Big East or Big 12 unless Texas and/or Georgia Tech loses tonight. The Big Ten candidates' resumes aren't any better than Florida's and both of them have 2 losses. I think a team that was #1 the entire regular season and lost to the #2 team in the final game would get an at large bid almost every season. He said deserves, not actually receives

    And there's a reason McElroy was the guy nobody wanted.
  11. SouthSideRyan
    We as Americans(unlike those dirty foreigners) appreciate clutch performers.
  12. SouthSideRyan
    Sure Tebow made a mistake, but even Jesus sinned.

    this would be so much better if auburn pulled off the upset last week. NO KIDDING. That would have been the surefire death knell of the BCS. Well it would be when the result were revealed and Bama inexplicably jumped Cincy/TCU
  14. SouthSideRyan
    this would be so much better if auburn pulled off the upset last week. I'd be wet right now.
  15. SouthSideRyan
    That was absolutely not a fumble. A Tebow-esque recovery by Bama though.
  16. SouthSideRyan
    Both of them are non-contenders, broke, and expecting Hendry to give him away and pay his salary. What does that have to do with anything? The point is Bradley's teammates don't have this visceral hatred that Cubs fans do. Maybe the players are smarter than the average fan.
  17. SouthSideRyan
    And we don't play them for another 9 weeks. Nothing good about this.
  18. SouthSideRyan
    Quick somebody start a fight with RedFlash so he can be banned before the game's over.
  19. SouthSideRyan
    I thought the silver lining was that Voice of Reason won't be around for a couple weeks. Also, only a 2 hour limo drive to San Diego.
  20. SouthSideRyan
    He's just a meaner, skinnier version of Weis. Neither team has any idea how to play defense. Kelly's meaner?
  21. SouthSideRyan
    Yeah but nobody cares about ACC football, so it doesn't matter. You had 4 "title" games today(Not to mention a huge nonconference game in Illinois/Fresno), how do you suggest they scheduled it? Three games today that equal BCS berths. Schedule them at noon, 4pm, 8pm. Easy. Put the ACC game on opposite the Cincy/Pitt game and let the viewers decide How is having Cincy/Pitt opposite the ACC title game any different than having Texas/Nebraska opposite it?
  22. SouthSideRyan
    I wish I could restart this game and just start from the beginning and count how many times the word Tebow is spoken during the broadcast. I really hope both Tebow gets knocked out of this game and Alabama wins. No, no no. Tebow gets knocked out while losing, then Florida wins.
  23. SouthSideRyan
    Yeah I hate Fresno now for that. What a douchebag. Nobody talks to Charissa like that.
  24. SouthSideRyan

    We have made it to the You're an idiot because you think Lee Smith is HOF level though. Regarding my comment on defense, I meant it more that Martinez couldn't stay healthy while playing defense. Thomas sucked at playing 1B, but he was able to play it without injuring himself.
