  1. What changed? A couple of bad seasons?
  2. Castro went 2-3 today. Keeping it rolling. Wellemeyer pitched 2 scoreless innings, lol
  3. The Kwame Brown draft was my favorite clip so far.
  4. Well, at least it gave us this. speaking of unfunny... Anyways, they put clips up of the entire show, having watched 70-80% of the clips, I believe I can say that I've seen the show. It's interchangable. It really isn't. The clips on line, taken in small doses and filtering out the ones that look stupid, is better than watching the painfully unfunny TV show. Point taken. This is why I suggested that maybe that's why I find it funny when others don't. Watching 2-3 actually funny clips during a 5 minute break at work is probably more enjoyable to watch 30 minutes straight of the show. NUTS AND GUM YOU HAVE SERVED ME, I HAVENT REALLY SEEN THE SHOW AND YET COMMENTED AS IF I HAVE!! ALSO, FERRIS BUELLER IS 100% REAL!
  5. Figured since Spring Training games get so little discussion on these boards anymore, it would be better off to do a game thread for a weeks worth of games, rather than an individual one for each game. Week Schedule (all games at 2:05 PM CST unless noted): MON 2/28 - vs. Milwaukee, MLB.com Radio (L 5-3) TUE 3/1 - @ Giants, MLB.com Radio (W 3-2) WED 3/2 - @ Brewers, MLB.com Radio (L 5-12) THU 3/3 - vs. Rangers, MLB.com Radio (L 7-8) FRI 3/4 - @ Royals, MLB.com Radio (L 4-5) SAT 3/5 - vs. Padres, WGN 720 Radio (W 9-4) SUN 3/6 - (ss) @ Reds, no broadcast (L 0-10) SUN 3/6 - (ss) vs. Dodgers, WGN TV, WGN 720 Radio (W 5-3)
  6. We already are; we're in the SportsDome thread. you must constantly think you are in a sportsdome thread.
  7. It's still a rumor, I saw a clip on realgm that says hes in chicago working out with tim grover and is expected to sign with Miami.
  8. Well, at least it gave us this. speaking of unfunny... Anyways, they put clips up of the entire show, having watched 70-80% of the clips, I believe I can say that I've seen the show. It's interchangable.
  9. LOL Wainwright and Carpenter = Prior and Wood!!
  10. As long as Miami doesn't get [expletive] besides a washed up Mike Bibby and Eddy [expletive] Curry, that's fine.
  11. I forgot, what were we offering him last offseason? 2.75m for 1 season? That's awesome for him. It looks like it can be said he made the right decision now. I couldnt see the Hawks handing out that kind of contract to him anytime soon.
  12. I hate you all. You don't understand humor. This is the only board that I've read even one person say that don't like SportsDome. So either its groupthink or I have less in common with this board than I thought I did
  13. Some of their bits completely miss, but the ones that hit are hilarious IMO. They do a good job of recreating the feel and look of sportscenter, but put their own hilarious spin on it. I'd say 20% of their stories are really funny, 40% are mildly funny, and the last 40% are rather meh. Also, I haven't ever watched the show, I have only watched the clips they put up on the site. Maybe its more funny watching it that way and picking and choosing the clips that seem funny. I dunno.
  14. probably because its the greatest show ever.
  15. I love the Onion Sportsdome . Greatest show ever. http://www.onionsportsnetwork.com/video/cubs-hope-to-get-disappointing-soriano-in-shape-by,19206/
  16. I feel so dirty, but I am rooting for Detroit to beat LA. It's 2-1 Detroit in the 1st right now. If the Wings can get a regulation victory, the Hawks will be tied with the Kings for the 5th seed with equal games played. (kings hold the tiebreaker with 1 more win). Also right now, the Hawks currently have the 2nd best goal differential in the West, up +29 to +28 over Detroit up to the minute and 4th best differential in the NHL, behind Vancouver (+58), Boston (+46), and Philadelphia (+44). For comparison purposes, the Hawks finished with a goal differential of +62 last year. Here is the the 4-12 playoff chase for anyone too lazy to google it. GP PTS W 4. Phoenix 64 76 33 5. Los Angeles 62 74 35 (playing right now) 6. Chicago 63 74 34 7. Calgary 64 73 32 8. Dallas 62 72 33 -------------------------- 9. Minnesota 63 72 33 10.Nashville 63 72 32 11.Anaheim 63 71 33 12.Columbus 61 68 31 I only included Columbus because they have played 3 less games then some teams.
  17. Hawks have looked really good the last few games. They are back to controlling the puck, and doing a good job pushing the puck up the ice. It's almost like someone flipped a switch and they turned into good hawks again. Lets hope its not another mirage. Right now it looks like they are making their push.
  18. Phew, got the first goal of the game. I can relax a little now. All these games lately feel like playoff games. I feel like any loss is crippling, especially because these are all against teams we're fighting with. Conversely, every win over these teams feels huge.
  19. I love watching FNL (the TV series), and even though Buzz didnt write the TV series, just the book that inspired the movie that inspired the TV series, I might refuse to watch the last season on the account of him being a [expletive] moron.
  20. Frolik reminds me a lot of, well, Jack Skille. He puts himself in position to get the puck to the net, but he doesn't know how to bury his chances. Stalberg's the same way too. Skille doesn't have that move Frolik put on last night. And you're right about Stalberg. That guy is so fast sometimes, it makes me think he's loafing it the rest of the time. I completely agree about Stalberg. I'll watch him and see nothing special. Just your average 3rd-4th line winger. And then randomly I'll see him fly up the ice, make up a ton of ground and catch up to a puck before icing is called. And I wonder where that speed is all game.
  21. Damn, Colorado and St. Louis didnt do their jobs, so Anaheim and Calgary get 2 huge points each. Calgary jumps ahead of us in points by 1, but we have 2 games in hand over them. This is how 4-12 looks right now: GP PTS 4. Phoenix 64 76 5. Los Angeles 62 74 6. Calgary 64 73 7. Chicago 62 72 8. Dallas 62 72 ---------------------- 9. Minnesota 62 72 10.Nashville 63 72 11.Anaheim 63 71 12.Columbus 61 68
  22. He played great today in the 3rd, OT and the shootout. I missed the 2nd period so I don't know how many of those goals were his fault.
  23. Alright! We did it! 2 points. Not a regulation win, but I'll take it!
  24. Off to my worst enemy, a shootout. I believe the Coyotes have won the last few shootouts we've had against them, dating back to last year. I know the last time we played Phoenix, we also lost in a shootout.
