    Micah Hoffpauir isn't any good.
  2. SouthSideRyan
    Not allow you to listen to his postgame press conferences.
  3. SouthSideRyan
    I just got a sick feeling that Von Joshua is going to be let go.

    Memphis is high profile? If Calipari stayed and he had his army of paid 18 year olds there instead of Lexington, the NCAA would've found no wrong-doing. With Calipari gone and Memphis's program an afterthought they were able to actually do something(however pointless it may be) Yes, Memphis is high profile. Three straight elite 8's and a sweet 16 is fairly good. And they'll probably return to the tournament again next year. I don't really even see an argument as to whether Memphis is considered high profile or not. You mean, 2 straight elite eights and a sweet 16. No, I meant 3. Not to mention a national title game thrown in there. I don't recall that. I also don't see how a team that set the record for most losses in a season can be considered elite.

    Yeah, we need a fiery guy to replace that old softie Lou Piniella. SORIANO!!! PLAY BETTER OR I'LL ASK YOU TO GIVE UP 100M CAUSE I'M ANGRY Im saying Soriano would be begging to opt out. A lot of people dont quite know the extent of Bobby Vs reputation. no, he wouldn't. no, he wouldnt but still, if nothing else, we could get some great post games out of him. WELL SIGN HIM UP THEN

    Hope that he's had a knee injury all year.

    Down 7-2 in the 9th inning with nobody on base.

    This Koyie Hill [expletive] is starting to piss me off.

    *benches all Padres on his fantasy team* You have Padres on your fantasy team? 16 team NL only league? Since he's benching them against Smoltz I assumed it was a hacking mass league.

    I think we're better than Gonzaga.

    Yeah, it was a really tough call on Baker, but I think Bucknor got it right.

    The only reason I even care about the Cubs pulling off a miracle to knock out the Cards is that so RedVerbs will [expletive] leave for awhile again.
  16. SouthSideRyan
    Um.. Actually he was the #2 starter on the team behind Morris, and the unquestioned leader of the pitching staff. He had 2 bad years in Colorado after a lot of success in Houston. The only comparison that most Cub fans would understand today, is if Ted Lilly died suddenly. I don't want to rehash a tragedy. I just wanted to point out that luck, both good and bad, is subjective. Not looking for sympathy, just trying to add some logic to the conversation. Kile had 2 good seasons in Houston. 4 years apart. The year he died he had the 4th best ERA on the team, a shade ahead of midseason acquisition(who probably never woulda been acquired without Kile dying) Chuck Finley. The unquesitoned leader? Sounds like sports talk [expletive] to me. It wasn't like the guy was a lifetime Cardinal, he was with them for 2 and a half seasons. Don't get me wrong, I hate the drooling pack that say pixie dust every 3rd post, but Daryl Kile dying, meh.

    If you beat a team that doesn't exist for the title, you didn't really win the title. Sorry snood.
  18. SouthSideRyan
    The Dodgers only started losing their lead because they replaced Pierre with Manny.
  19. SouthSideRyan
    Luckily for him he's at Kentucky now, so he should be safe.
  20. SouthSideRyan
    The veteran ace dying was like the 5th best pitcher on the team that year. The veteran ace that died also miraculous became good after being terrible in Colorado.
  21. SouthSideRyan
    You gets get banished to U for the Challenge?
  22. SouthSideRyan
    No, but he's not an ideal defensive CF, has basically been a platoon partner, and more importantly, potentially the only tradable position player. 2/26.5 for his age 33 and 34 seasons, I think the Cubs might be able to find a better way to spend that money. Well that would be fine if they could find a way to spend the money, but I'm not comfortable with Bradley as a full-time CF(not cause of his defense, but because of the prospects of Reed Johnsons starting 70 times a year.) I'm also not comfortable giving Jason Bay whatever insane contract he's likely to get. Finding a CF platoon(or player) that hits like the ones we've had the last 2 seasons, is costly in dollars or talent. I'd rather eat 3M/Y on Dempster and trade him than open a gaping hole in CF.
  23. SouthSideRyan
    Fukudome's contract isn't really an issue.
  24. SouthSideRyan
    Yes, there's lot of doubt. Smoltz is done. You don't know that Yeah, but everyone [expletive] knows that he's going to dominate with the Cardinals. That or they're on the cutting edge of comedy with their predictions.
