  1. If Rose practices with team USA, is that a good thing? Do you want him to be involved in something closer to game action, or can that wait for the preseason?
  2. At least it wasn't a blowout
  3. Was? He changed his mind?
  4. Tiger is using a 3 iron bent to 2 iron loft. It is not the VR Pro blade either. It's VRS cavity back. http://www.golfwrx.com/75621/tiger-woods-winning-witb-photos/
  5. Oh come on, you've been around here long enough to know how badly this post is going to be destroyed, so why even bother? What kind of player will Rizzo turn out to be? I already said this was a great deal for the Cubs, but it makes no sense to compare his contract or play to Votto after being with the Cubs for less than a year. It makes no sense to purposefully avoid comparing his contract or play to other players at his position. That's like the basis of nearly all conversations about baseball. You don't do that with first year players as much. It's different if we are talking established ones.

  7. LOL you are so fail. 2013 wOBA: Rizzo - .393 Votto - .395 Hasn't been in the bigs for a year yet. We don 't know exactly what kind of player he'll settle into. That's why he was available in the first place.
  8. I thought he did have a 2 iron right now
  9. McCain says NFL stadiums that get public funding should not have games blacked out. Already on in visiting team's market. As simple as flipping a switch. Agree?
  10. And 1/3 as good Yeah...no. And even if he were just 1/3 as good as Votto this season (not even close), Votto's locked up to his age 39 season, at which point he might just be 1/3 as good as Rizzo at 31. Which the article explicitly says. Which means you didn't even try to read it. The point I was obviously trying to make is that when one player is far and away better than the other why compare salaries Votto is presently better. He's not far and away better. And when you factor in age, well.... Yes the MVP is. We don't even know what Rizzo is yet.

  12. Tiger could take down Snead's all time PGA win record this year. One driver all day. 280 yard 5 woods off the tee. Best putter on Tour. Not fair.
  13. Why would Rizzo's agent go for that deal?
  14. Why would Rizzo's agent go for that deal?
  15. It's a cavernous building and most of the lower levels on either sideline are filled with rich people who don't yell? Chicago crowds in general kind of suck in terms of sustaining energy and noise. The only game I can think of off the top of my head that was an exception there was the 2010 NFC Championship. I thought the game to end Miami's steak at the UC had a ton of sustained energy from start to finish
  16. Officiating did not determine the outcome of this game. Missed calls for both teams. Bulls' defense wasn't horrible, but the Heat just made shots. Gotta play smarter from here on out. You can't thug this series and hope that's enough to win.
  17. In a tight game these stupid fouls and the crap Nazi pulled can lose a game
  18. Nope. It has to be really egregious.
  19. Really sad story. A nurse gave her CPR, but no one figured out she needed the Heimlich Maneuver.
  20. Usually they like to have a former player/coach in the color spot. Kerry Wood
  21. I turned the game off in the 4th quarter. Why did Noah and Taj get tossed?
  22. This game is about to be over. Bulls can't score tonight.
