  1. LA wins, making them the 4th team with 81 points. If Dallas gets 1 point tonight, the 4-8 seeds will all have 81 points
  2. Now its just sweating out whether they will have to win the play-in round to get to the field of 64, or if they are "in" in. I'm gonna guess they are in.
  3. I'm sure I'm talking about of my ass, but: better overall record, 9-3 in last 12 games, and head to head win on neutral floor vs. win against UNC, h2h win, better RPI and SOS is that the argument? Last 12 is meaningless. Almost as meaningless as overall record. For the record, I think Illinois has the better resume. I'm just listing the variables out there, not necessarily what the committee looks at. However, I could swear the committe looks at how you've played over your last X number of games and that plays a factor. Am I wrong? I'm sorry Michigan doesn't get into the tourney enough to know in detail how the process works. I'm about 99% sure that both Illinois and Michigan are in.

  5. Illinois is still gonna make the tourney, but do you even want them to? My best friend is just about the biggest illini fan ive ever met and even he's apathetic at this point.
  6. Wow...sorry Illini fans. I learned what my friends hvae been bitching about all year first hand. I root for Illinois over every team but Michigan. Michigan 2 NCAA Tournament appearances in 3 years after none in 12 years. I'll take that!
  7. atdhenet.tv ESPN channel
  8. How are they any worse than Illinois at this point? Well becuase they are losing the game of chokers
  9. Wow the chokingest bunch of choking I've ever seen. I turn on the game at 17-14 Michigan. Now its 34-23 Illinois at halftime
  10. 18-6 Illini run since the second i turned on the game. Yay
  11. Si. But its like in the NBA if a team is 20-11 and another team is 19-10. They are tied but the 2nd team has 2 games in hand
  12. Here's tonights update as it applies to the Hawks playoff race: Predators beat the Wild 4-0 Coyotes beat the Flames 3-0 As a result, the Hawks remain technically in 4th place, but it is now a 3 way tie between Phoenix, Calgary and Chicago. The Hawks have 1 game in hand on Phoenix and 2 on Calgary so that's good. Nashville's win also cuts the Hawks playoff cushion to 3 points. Here's how the standings look after tonight: 4. Chicago 81 68 5. Phoenix 81 69 6. Calgary 81 70 7. Dallas 80 67 8. Los Angeles 79 67 ------------------ 9. Nashville 78 68 10.Anaheim 77 67 11.Minnesota 77 68 Hawks still have 2 days off before their next game. Here are the games that effect us the next 2 nights: Friday: Los Angeles @ Columbus Minnesota @ Dallas Anaheim @ Colorado Saturday: Colorado @ Nashville Vancouver @ Calgary Just for fun, this is how the standings would look if everyone of those games went against the Hawks. 4. Calgary 83 71 5. Dallas 82 68 6. Chicago 81 68 7. Los Angeles 81 68 8. Phoenix 81 69 ------------------ 9. Nashville 80 69 10.Anaheim 79 68 11.Minnesota 78 69 That's actually not as bad as I thought
  13. I'm gonna guess that this is the game that the Heat break through and win a close game and everything will be right in the Heat world for now. But if they don't it will be hilarious
  14. I posted this in the sports jerseys thread, but I figured Id create a thread for it too since I want anyone who wants a jersey to take advantage of it and its today only. This is a fantastic deal by Modell's. They have t-shirts, hats, sweatshirts, jerseys, etc for every sports team, and its just about all 40% off, and free shipping over $49. I just bought a red Toews jersey, red Noah jersey, white Rose jersey, white Castro jersey and a blackhawks cap for $270 when it would normally cost ~$450. Enter the code MOD4TEN39 to get the discount. Hope you can take advantage as it ends at midnight tonight!
  15. I don't know how long this lasts, but Modell's is having a 40% off sale right now on everything, including sports jerseys. Instead of having to worry about the quality of a knockoff, you can get a personalized Castro jersey for just $60 (free shipping over $49 too). I am about to buy a White Castro jersey, a Red Rose jersey, and a Red Toews jersey for $200 when it would normally cost $320 plus shipping. The promo code is MOD4TEN39 Website: www.modells.com
  16. There was a really good article on ESPN.com on Monday I think that proved that historically, there is more of a correlation between blowing out bad teams in the regular season and playoff success, than winning close games against good teams and playoff success. If that's the case, Miami should be in decent shape since they still have the best point differential in the East. They definitely blew out a lot of bad teams. I think they might be the exception though because they can't beat ANY good teams.
  17. 1st question, I think it hit the top of the glass and bounced back in. I think that means it shouldnt be a penalty. It's only out if it gets to the netting or into the crowd right? The Hawks announcers were pretty convinced it wasn't a penalty. 2nd question, I know the play you are talking about. I believe it was Seabrook that stopped the puck from going in the net with his stick. I assumed that they scored too and was amazed that it didn't get in
  18. Bulls are Central Division champions and first team in the NBA to clinch their division.
  19. As shitty as that was, and as disappointed as I was, I would have taken the 1 point when we were down 3-1. Good job coming back. The shootout is a crapshoot that didnt go our way tonight. Whatever. 4 point playoff cushion...tied with Calgary or Dallas for the 4 seed. We'll probably be around 7th or 8th the next time we take the ice, which I believe isn't until Sunday.
  20. Lightning get just their 2nd and 3rd points of the last 10 available
  21. Hawks lose. [expletive] 1 point on the trip. Either Dallas or Calgary will be tied for 4th with the Hawks tonight.
  22. Dammit Taser had him beat. Aghh
  23. Lets win this crapshoot!
  24. Noooo!!! Breakaway stoned by Roloson. I thought that was gonna be game.
