  1. Didn't they play close to .500 ball for a really long stretch between the Rizzo call up and the trades in 2012? From April 25 to July 28 last year, they were 42-41. They had a 19-10 stretch in July of 2012
  2. Yup was not expecting that. Probably not but does this maybe suggest McGary is coimng back? On UMHoops they were speculating that Michigan was going to have a logjam of bigs even if McGary returned.
  3. 14-18 before the trade, 32-18 after the trade.
  4. So lets look at how the playoffs can go for the Hawks Current: Blues 111 (3) @MIN, @DAL, DET Avs 109 (3) @VAN, @SJ, @ANA Hawks 107 (2) @WAS, @NAS Tiebreakers: Avs over Blues (46 ROW vs. 43 - Clinched) Avs over Hawks (46 ROW vs. 40 - Clinched) Blues over Hawks (43 ROW vs. 40 - Clinched) Scenario 1: Blues (1) vs. WC (4) Avs (2) vs. Hawks (3) Still the most likely scenario. The Blues need any combination of 3 points over Avs (either gaining points or the Avs losing points) to clinch division. Scenario 2: Avs (1) vs. WC (4) Blues (2) vs. Hawks (3) Scenario 3: Blues (1) vs. WC (4) Hawks (2) vs. Avs (3) The only way the Hawks can pass the Avs is by winning out and having the Avs lose their last 3 games, at least 2 of them in regulation. Not a very likely scenario
  5. Do we have a positive run differential yet?
  6. I wonder if Javy is being asked to work on something specific like adjusting his swing or being more selective. Then again it doesnt make sense to introduce him to a new level and then mess with things.
  7. Good we need more true villains in baseball. Baseball was a lot more enjoyable with all the disgraced steroid abusers, but most of them retired or the newer guys started outright admitting they did them when they got caught instead of adamantly denying it in the face of overwhelming evidence.
  8. Sophomore UMass Guard Derrick Gordon announces that he is gay and will be the first openly gay D1 Men's Basketball player. Glad the floodgates are starting to open. http://www.shermanreport.com/hopefully-one-day-this-wont-be-news-first-active-d-1-basketball-player-announces-he-is-gay/ Anyways, we're in offseason mode. Discuss draft declarations, recruiting and how bad Indiana is going to be next year here.
  9. Agreed. Plus the Duchene injury, although it doesn't seem to be hurting them all that much currently. That said, defenses get tighter in the playoffs, and the Avs will miss his offensive ability even more.
  10. That might be the best lineup we have, although I'd rather see Olty in there and probably Lake (I don't know if Morton is R or L and I don't care) Ew I guess that joke is dead

  12. I'm still just kind of stunned that UConn won the title. I can't wrap my mind around it. No one was talking about this team all season....hell no one was talking about them as a contender until they beat MSU to get to the final 4. Just boggles my mind. Congrats to them.
  13. Bears brought in Josh Freeman for a workout today. According to Jeff Dickerson he looked really good.
  14. Tommy Amaker is 1/3rd of the way to the HOF!
  15. Looks like Ronnie Brewer is officially back. Amazingly, the Jazz claimed Erik Murphy off waivers, meaning his rookie salary (~490K) comes off the books meaning that the Bulls are no longer in danger of being over the tax even if Noah makes All-NBA 1st team and Taj makes the All-Defensive team, AND they still have money to sign Brewer and Mike James for the rest of the year and be clear of the tax. Thanks Utah! Looks like they paid back the favor the Bulls did for them when they signed Boozer in a S+T
  16. Can we play a non-Pennsylvania based team please?
  17. I noticed this at the game Friday and I asked on here...apparently they did work on that wall over the offseason Rickets said that during the broadcast the other day. Yeah they said on the radio that it will grow back and look like normal when the weather turns.
  18. Bad goal Crawford. Gotta sweat out last 2 mins now
  19. You know that person isn't Clark the Cub and isn't affiliated with the Cubs right?
  20. That really doesn't look significantly worse than what we normally throw out there.
  21. So weird to hear Wayne Laravee calling basketball again on the Badgers broadcast. Hated when he called Bulls games
