  1. At this point I would of course settle for the 2 points, but if they are to get 2 points, I would love for it to be in regulation because we need the regulation win for the tiebreaker with the Stars. Oh sweet, Troy Brouwer looks really hurt curling on the ice. I guess its been 3-4 games since the Hawks suffered a serious injury, so it was due.
  2. This is annoying. Everytime the Hawks game has a commercial, I flip to the Bulls and they too are on commercial.
  3. The drought is over at 100 minutes and 8 seconds!! Kaner
  4. Annnnnd the Hawks are losing 1-0 midway through the 2nd. I'm really worried we're not going to win another game at this point.
  5. Bulls magic number = 3. Right? 4 over Boston, 3 over Miami
  6. Hawks scoring drought reaches 90 minutes and 3 seconds after a scoreless 1st period.
  7. Took you 6 days to think up that response? :)
  8. They all do at the beginning. The Chicago media has a way of wearing down it's managers fairly quickly.
  9. Did anyone ever figure out when exactly it was that this happened last? 1908 Sure feels like it
  10. Just that his arm amputation surgery will be on Friday.
  11. So far I am liking what I see from the offense in general. They haven't done any one thing particularly great, but they have done a lot of things good, including working the count and overall having patience. If it keeps up, it would easily change my perception of this team from my preseason prediction of 75-80 wins to something around 83-88 wins.
  12. Only the Cubs and Diamondbacks intentionally walk the bases loaded, bring in another pitcher and he immediately walks a run in on 4 pitches.
  13. Cashner left with soreness in his shoulder per Levin Black of the Williston Herald when he wakes up from his nap in a couple of innings.
  14. "Hey Silv...have you read the papers lately? No? Oh...well that whole 'cut from the team' thing, that was all a joke. We've been looking all over for you since then. Sorry for the mixup. Can you start in 5 days?......wait...you've gained 40 pounds in a week?....and you did WHAT to a hooker?...umm....ok well just get over here, we'll get it straightened out with the cops."
  15. Uhhhhhh... They've been hitting. Sure....I should have clarified, I meant like a breakout 7+ run game. And yes I know I posted prematurely.
  16. Should have known it would be the game where Pena and Soto sit that the offense would start to hit a bit.
  17. 2-1. Thanks, ESPN didn't get the whole Koyie Hill overthrow pickoff thing, and it said Castro doubled and Hill scored but Fukudome was thrown out and didnt account for Barney.
  18. Yea day games on a Mon, Tues, or Weds haven't happened at home for quite a while. Usually Mon-Weds are night games, and Thurs-Sun are day games when playing at home. In April, most if not all the weekday games are day games. Yup every year. Especially in the first homestand of the season. I think last year their first homestand was 6 games, and 5 were during the day, maybe all 6.
  19. I'm a bit ignorant on the topic, will this be because DePaul is good or another team is embarrassingly awful? It's hard to win less than 1 Big East game per season as DePaul has over the last 3 seasons.
  20. Since you need it spelled out for you, the theory has long been that Wrigley insulates the Cubs from the sort of performance-based attendance cycles you're describing. If that's not so true anymore, it's a story. http://uchiblogo.uchicago.edu/archives/2011/04/bad_hops.html
  21. Their best shooter tonight is shooting 3-11
  22. No...UConn is winning by default.
