    Scott Skiles as new IU head coach? I always thought he would be a better college coach than NBA coach. Why does an anonymous donor have to pay half a million? Why wouldn't the university pay?

    I can't believe that Soriano's leg is still bothering him. I hope he takes it easy in ST.
  3. Wilson A2000
    .296 and .367 are the important numbers

    It's tough to disparage Kenny Williams when he has a championship and Hendry doesn't. Hendry may think of himself as a straight shooter, but doing that results in overpaying.

    I thought Fukodome had speed

    What do you think of the Vandemeer trade? Yeah, the Hawks might not have been able to sign him next year for the 2-3 million a year he might want, but getting a fourth line player in return isn't better than keeping Vandemeer for the year.

    I always thought that Boras did get his requisite 5% of the new ARod deal?

    I am really suprised that Sammy was smart enough to stay safe so far
  9. Wilson A2000
    They excluded him so far, but he'll get in sometime don't you think?

    Does the report say exactly what kind of performance enhancing drugs were used? HGH or anabolic or another kind?

    The Cubs did offer Prior an incentive-laden contract for 08 and an option for 09 right? If so, when was it offered?
  12. Wilson A2000
    Do you want to win, or do you want to have a happy clubhouse? Winning makes a happy clubhouse. I think keeping Prior would have increased the Cubs' chances of winning.

    The Bears are desperate for safeties!

    Arm He swings like Ichiro. He seems to lunge at the ball. But he hit a homerun off a guy who looks like a right-handed version of Billy Wagner.
  15. Wilson A2000
    Wow this thread sure has a lot of browsers. I heard he has a canon for an arm. Is that true? How fast is he?
  16. Wilson A2000
    6 feet, 150 lbs? Where does he get the power?
  17. Wilson A2000
    Gotcha. What happens if there is a major penalty?
  18. Wilson A2000
    I don't know too much about hockey, but I thought if a team has a one man advantage due to a penalty, once the advantaged team scores a goal, the power play is over. The Hawks had a two-man advantage, scored, but still had the two-man advantage afterward. Are there different rules for a two-man?

    Ramage was found guilty a few weeks ago and could face 14 years in jail. He could lose his right to live or work in the US. I don't think anyone else was killed though.
  20. Wilson A2000
    Do we know if the Blackhawks approached McDonough or if McDonough approached them
  21. Wilson A2000
    I hope it does because Boras is not good for baseball or his clients

    Palmiero can't be charged because he failed the test after he testified. But I wonder if it can be figured out that Palmiero had to be on them for a few weeks prior for it to show up on a later test. So I guess Bonds did fail a test associated with the criminal investigation. I wonder what they found. I have to remind myself that HGH while illegal to take now, is not tested for. Bonds can't get busted for taking that. When were anabolic steroids made illegal in the MLB? He could have taken anabolic steroids up until they were illegal and then taken HGH after that. So Bonds could have taken this stuff, but worked it out so that he can't be punished. If he is found guilty for perjury, I don't know if they can take his records away because what he did was not illegal per se from the MLB's perspective.

    Bonds hasn't failed any steroid tests that I know of. This indictment is about his testimony before the grand jury. The Feds know when they raided BALCO that Bonds was on steroids because of all of the data they found there. Plus, there is plenty of corroborating evidence. Bonds says he didn't knowingly take any which seems to be a lie. Bonds was given immunity from prosecution after the testimony, except if he would up committing perjury. Bonds is not in trouble for taking them, but for saying that he didn't take them when he knew he did. HGH wasn't the only steroid Bonds was on. He was on anabolic steroids (see the wiki page on "Game of Shadows") previous to HGH. HGH is not undetectable. It's just that blood test used to detect is is not allowed by the MLB for a number of reasons and the test is not as accurate as the MLB would like.
  24. Wilson A2000
    The asterisks in the indictment are not trying to cover up anything, but are meaning to heighten the points where Bonds supposedly perjured himself right?
  25. Wilson A2000
    Lester Munson said that if convicted, Bonds would likely get a year
