    When is the last time we actually won a series against Pittsburgh?
  2. UMFan83
    300 mil payroll without any me first guys
  3. UMFan83
    Ah, yes. Paired with Rose (who would only need to be 70-80%), Noah, and at least 1 of Butler/Gibson that's easily the best team in the East and likely the league. Simmons - even though his schtick can get old, he does have legit connections (or at least connections to people like Jalen Rose who have legit connections) - could send Boozer + 16 + 19 to Orlando for Afflalo and waivable contracts then Mirotic+MDJ+Snell somewhere to free up money for Melo Would that leave us with MLE, LLE and vet minimums to fill out the roster beyond Rose, Afflalo, Anthony, Taj, Noah and Butler? Would the MLE be enough to resign DJ? I really want to be sure we have depth at PG, one to limit Roses minutes and two in case Rose gets injured. With the rest of that lineup the Bulls can withstand a Rose injury if they have a halfway decent backup.

    Have the Cubs had that 100 year patch on their hates for all their home games?
  5. UMFan83
    Looks like their first game will be 10/9 at Dallas
  6. UMFan83
    Ya think? http://i.imgur.com/a3GtQax.jpg

    Now if we tie tomorrow we (+1) root for a draw for Portugal (-4) and Ghana (-1), then a Portugal win. At least Germany looks beatable
  8. UMFan83
    Ugh. Well if this score holds, USA has a great chance to lead the group after 2 games. Never mind Germany scored. Go for the kill
  9. UMFan83
  10. UMFan83
    By a million. I thought I read somewhere that a tie was the optimal outcome? More optimal to win the group maybe? Ill take the scenario where a USA draw knocks out Ghana and leaves Portugal on life support (would need a win, USA loss, and make up a 5 goal deficit over USA).
  11. UMFan83
    I was listening to the interview. The scout said he had a very strong arm but needed to work on his technique.
  12. UMFan83
    So this night has started well.
  13. UMFan83
    The problem is that there is not much time left before the July sell off
  14. UMFan83
  15. UMFan83
    Damn...Rizzo and Castro are awesome.
  16. UMFan83
    France looking great
  17. UMFan83
    That...is pretty awesome. Have other coaches done this before?
  18. UMFan83
    And somehow, Costa Rica (+3) is through to the second round and a strong favorite over Italy (+0) and Uruguay (-1) to win the group. Knockout Scenarios: Winner of Italy/Uruguay is through Draw in Italy/Uruguay results in Italy going through
  19. UMFan83
    Costa Rica! Would be crazy to see Italy-Uruguay be a play-in game for the second round. I believe a draw would send Italy though if CR won by 1 goal today.

  21. UMFan83
    2 men on for both Baez and Bryant. Baez popped up to 2B and Bryant K'd. Back to Tennessee for both of them!
  22. UMFan83
    They don't want Bryant leading off the second with no one on after Baez strikes out to end the 1st
  23. UMFan83
    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.
  24. UMFan83
    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.
  25. UMFan83
    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.
