SOG: Detroit 19 Chicago 3 Holy. [expletive].
-
I know we say stuff like this a lot but I don't think I've seen the Hawks play this lackadaisical all year. They look like they just woke up and are just trying to get through the game.
-
No wonder Froliks shooting % is like 2%. How do you not get some air on that. 2-0. You suck Hawks
-
And finally they make us pay
-
have we concluded there is no answer to this? i realllllllly want to throw some money away, someone help me. I said check out 5dimes. Do you have me on ignore or something?
-
Well this was fun to read after the fact. The funniest part was SSR begging people for attention and for the most part getting ignored.
-
-
I'm sure they weren't necessarily miserable, they just didn't really have much of a reaction when they were announced. -
Guess he's still angsty about not getting called up in September.
-
I KNOW! I'm glad someone else noticed that. Even Demp was pretty blah about the whole thing. Edit: Actually Byrd looked pretty happy as well.
-
Nice...love the club option.
-
LMAO, nice reporting Sullivan: Of course Bruce Miles nails it:
-
Woody was just announced at the Cubs Convention as the Cubs most recent acquisition so I guess he signed.
-
Tigers sign Prince - 9/214 - Heyman

Well, the thing is its obvious Theo and Jed love Rizzo. They've acquired him 3 separate times basically. I don't see them making a trade for him only to ship him off in another trade. They could move Rizzo to corner OF or something, but he was a above average glove at 1B, clearly will be better than Fielder. So it doesn't seem like there is much of a point to signing Fielder. You obviously don't move him to the OF. I am pretty sure that this Fielder stuff is BS unless by "Cubs terms" they are talking something like 3 years with a team option. -
Jeff Fisher finally decided on the Rams.
-
Oh dear. It's possible he could be useful for certain teams in the NBA, but I'm not sure how he fits with this current Bulls team. Who is going to get less playing time? Asik? Taj? Noah and Boozer already get like 25 mins per game. Maybe if he accepts being in a Kurt Thomas role, but knowing Sheed, he's not coming back to sit on the bench for 90% of the season.
-
All of our bigs have terrible hands. Asik is by far the worst, Noah has gotten worse over the offseason. Tajs are not as bad as Omers but they are definitely below average. And you touched on Boozer who has significant problems as well. I have no idea why they all have so much trouble but I watch other teams and their bigs for the most part can catch sharp passes into the paint.
-
Wow Dwight Howard has attempted 39 FTs tonight, shattering the NBA record of 34 by Wilt back in the 60's. Also has a 45pt/23reb game
-
Agreed.
-
At least they lost a point. Detroit got 2 tonight as well. I guess its far enough into the season to start seriously following the other teams.
-
Hayes and Shaw are players. Gotta love that we've got these kind of guys ready to come up and contribute. As for Kane making the all star team, sharp was more deserving. Though his injury may have hurt his chances. Great trade for Bowman to acquire Hayes. He was a 1st round pick by Toronto the year before and the Hawks gave up a 2nd rounder to get him. Funny thing is, his brother was thought to be the better prospect I believe. One of the reasons the Hawks made that trade was because they drafted his brother in the 1st round of that draft.
-
Also, I heard today that 3 Hawks made the All Star team: Kane, Hossa, Toews. I think Kane went in on name recognition alone. Not that he's having a bad year but there are a lot of worthy forwards out there and I thought he'd be squeezed out.
-
No comments on the Hawks dominating 2nd period? They are up 4-1 now.
-
And Minnesota is going to win in Bloomington, stopping the Gophers' 0-4 start in the Big Ten
-
This is getting good. Indiana down 3 with the ball and 15 seconds left. Gus Johnson on the call of course
