    Get a load of this [expletive] guy over here You should edit the title to add "No TT's allowed" Edit: Nevermind if you read that out loud it sounds like you are banning something else that I am not in support of banning.

    Is this one of his legitimate or illegitimate kids?
  4. UMFan83
    Gonna be flipping during breaks of the Bulls game, which means that the Cubs will look awesome and hit a bunch of dongs but oh well.

    Biggest difference is Yeo will be able to shut down the Toews line with last change up there. Hoping Hawks can steal one up there and end it Saturday. Ducks look to roll Calgary, so getting this done before 6 games would be nice. Yes, momentum can shift in a hurry in the playoffs when the venue changes. If we can weather the storm in game 3, their will might be broken. They are still a very good team though, better than last year's team. Last year they went down 0-2 and then won both games in Minnesota before the Hawks sqeaked out 2 close Ws to close them out. Regardless, they have won a road game in 16 of the 17 series they've played under Q (only one they didn't was 09 WCF against Detroit), so I'm willing to bet we win one of the 2 games, if not game 6 to close it out.

    10-3

    Agreed, that was a domination. Very impressive. Things tend to change quickly when the venue changes. Win 1 of 2 in Minny and we are sitting pretty.
  8. UMFan83
    I guess we aren't considered good enough yet that winning a series on the road against us saves jobs
  9. UMFan83
    Yessss Starting to get their mojo. All 3 goals tonight were great plays.
  10. UMFan83
    He's ridiculous. Kane in open ice gives goalies nightmares.
  11. UMFan83
    Kane is a [expletive] sniper
  12. UMFan83
    Wow I thought we'd go the entire season without losing a series to a bad team
  13. UMFan83
    why? Because in a game that doesn't have as many anymore, he's supposed to be a big-time home run hitter. And to do that, you need to actually eventually hit a home run. Of course he will do it, but you want to see at least one. It's been more than 60 plate appearances and 55 at-bats. Again it's strange but there is like nothing I'm worried about less than Kris Bryant's ability to hit for power.
  14. UMFan83
    Not worried about the Cardinals. Bryant's lack of HRs is unusual but he's going through an adjustment period right now. When he was red hot after getting called up he hit 2-3 balls that would have been HRs in parks not named PNC. Obviously you want the win a series against a scuffling team but that's baseball. Sometimes you win a series against a great team, sometimes you lose a series against a bad team. Not going to worry as long as we are at least hovering around .500 into July and our top guys are getting ABs and incrementally improving.
  15. UMFan83
    He just doubled in his last AB weakass pop-up that the 2b dropped...context, my man Haha, my bad I definitely didn't see the AB just read the outcome.
  16. UMFan83
    He just doubled in his last AB
  17. UMFan83
    Hit better guys are supposed to be awesome
  18. UMFan83
    Boo-urns
  19. UMFan83
    Soler has had some better ABs lately and obviously good contact on that one
  20. UMFan83
    Draft grades are don't mean a ton but everyone I see has graded the Bears draft favorably so I guess that's good. They needed help everywhere so the positions don't matter...seems like they got BPA on most picks. A little surprised they didn't pick up a QB...wondering if they are planning to stick with Cutler for awhile or if not what their long term plan is.
  21. UMFan83
    How many professional ABs has he had since leaving Cuba? How long was he not playing baseball between leaving Cuba and playing for the Cubs? He probably has some development left to do
  22. UMFan83
    So.... parity? Maybe, either way just cool to have some new blood the finals, Bulls or not.
  23. UMFan83
    The Bulls are now the most recent champion left in the playoffs.
  24. UMFan83
    His SLG is lower than his OBP now He will snap out of it, but definitely scuffling a bit. Has been 8 games since his last XBH. the great news about Bryant is that even when he's slumping he can get on base (.324 OBP his last 8 games despite hitting .172 (5-29). If that's slumping Bryant, I can't wait to see red hot Bryant.
  25. UMFan83
    So random but Julie DeCaro and Jacque Jones got in a Twitter battle today which started with Jones supporting Mayweather tonight
