  1. Again.... "Lebron to the Bulls is a 'done deal' according to an executive" - NY Times June 28, 2010 "Wade to the Bulls is imminent" - Jason Goff July 3, 2010 "Boozer fails to be in the correct defensive position for the 749th consecutive possession" - Daily Herald March 31, 2013 Don't fall for this BS and get excited only to have the rug pulled out from under you. Not attacking David or anyone that posts these, I just want to bitch about how shitty 2010 was when I spent 2 weeks glued to RealGM for updates before learning that all those reports were rubbish.
  2. So England needs a win, probably by multiple goals, a Costa Rica loss to Italy, a Uruguay loss to an Italian team that will only care about getting 1 point.
  3. Thib's teams offensive ratings each season: 11th 5th 23rd (no Rose) 28th (no Rose, Bellineli, Nate Robinson, Deng, etc) http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/CHI/2011.html 11th best offensive rating for a team that started Keith Bogans at SG and gave big minutes to Taj (pre-offensive improvement), Ronnie Brewer, Omer Asik and Kurt Thomas http://www.basketball-reference.com/teams/CHI/2012.html 5th best offensive rating despite their only shot creator missing over half the season. Imagine how they would be with a second elite scorer in the lineup.
  4. Rest of the tournament is cancelled Edit: Fantastic humblebrag though about being on the beachmaking it harder to google it.
  5. What does that mean? Derwood thought this was the gam thread
  6. I like them for the most part. Glad to have the Charlotte Hornets back.
  7. Columbia, Uruguay-England draw, Greece
  8. Jozy now listed as out for Sunday's game http://www.espnfc.com/fifa-world-cup/story/1893459/us-forward-jozy-altidore-out-vs-portugal-with-ailing-hamstring
  9. It's possible Shark would sign for that much but not for a team a couple years away from competing if everything goes right.
  10. Expiring contract for $16m?
  11. I just think its silly to drop him so much for 2.5 months of mostly mediocre play. He still dominated a pitching dominated league as one of the youngest kids at the level. Sometimes prospects go through rough stretches in the development process. I still believe Javy has the highest upside in the organization especially when you consider position. Yes his floor is much lower than Bryants, but not low enough to boot him below a player like Alcantara. He should be number 2.
  12. good stuff. I also enjoyed when the NY Times published an article 3 days before 2010 FA saying "Lebron to the Bulls is a done deal" Meaning, that's great to hear but I'll believe it when Melo is holding up a Bulls jersey at a presser.
  13. How funny would the Spain-Australia match be if Spain loses today? An eliminated Spain would either destroy Australia in anger or just completely give up/play reserves and lose to complete their World Cup embarassment.
  14. And now Australia is ahead
  15. i'd rather see manny Amazing we could see a lineup in Iowa next week with Kris Bryant, Javier Baez, Arismendy Alcantara, Wellington Castillo and Manny Ramirez in it. Let's just move the home games to Wrigley for the time being
  16. It was in the daily minor league thread. Looks like a mod moved the discussion to its own thread.
  17. Gonna see Iowa next month, gonna own When is the last time Iowa has been the sexiest Cubs minor league affiliate? Usually it's the place where the Scott McClains of the world go to die.
  18. Nice, guess they were just waiting for him to play in the All-Star game. Alcantara, Baez, Bryant all in AAA....the first wave is quickly approaching.
  19. Whoops. Russian goalie f'd up there
  20. That's not good
  21. That's not how FIFA works. I thought that sounded odd but someone told me that and I believed them.
  22. Should we just root for Mexico to advance? If we have 3 teams advance that CONCACAF gets a guaranteed 4 teams in 2018 right?
  23. All college hitters in short season ball hit 5 HRs in their first 24 PAs. We would have been disappointed at anything less.
  24. Send him to Tennessee and him and Bryant can be the AA version of the Bash Brothers
