    I don't know whether to hate the Koreans for putting us in this predicament, or love them for bailing us out :-k

    UMFan83 replied to DivineBovine's topic in Other Sports

    So who do you guys want with those 2 lottery picks?
  3. UMFan83
    I'm guessing ESPN will drop the ball and not show this one?

    I wonder if they are required to stay in the team hotel while in Milwaukee. I'd think a good deal of Cubs live in the North suburbs and simply make the hour or so commute to the ballpark, so they can spend time with their families at night

    Do you think the high-fived when they passed each other? If they did, expect to see a "Prior breaks bone in hand" article popup online within a few hours.

    The Trib has a similar take: http://chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/sports/baseball/cubs/cs-060315cubslee,1,4526833.story?coll=cs-home-headlines So if Lee is done seeing Yocum, is Prior on his way out of the waiting room and into the doctor's office?

    You got the ball down, didn't you? My friends from Boston did that when they were up here, but they just spent the entire time throwing the ball at Jeter and ARod's head.
  8. UMFan83
    Yes, take it from someone who started the last 2 years' injury threads. It's bad news and stay away.

    Anyone want to start a pool for when Angel Guzman completes the trifecta?
  10. UMFan83
    So what does the US need to do to get into the next round?

    Hey I could see the Reds doing very well this year. If Griffey hits like he is in the WBC, their offense should be pretty damn good I must say. They will probably be a good tea- Oh. Oh wait, you need pitching too?
  12. UMFan83
    Its an idea to take into consideration for sure. But I doubt Hairston would win the 2B job outright. There would be some sort of platoon. But I can envision Hendry wanting Pierre/Hairston 1 and 2 in the order in a lighter version of Pierre/Castillo. I guess he thinks that if you can't beat them, you must join them

    Honestly, I want to see Todd Walker leave just to hear him finally uncork what he's been wanting to say for over a year now. The second he gets traded thats what's going to happen. Honestly, Todd deserves better.

    Hell yeah my scUM Wolverines aim to win their third NIT title in 10 years! (only 2 that count) Pathetic. All 3 years we were a bubble team that was one of the first teams left out of the NCAA tourney. If that doesn't prove that the NCAA is biased against UM, that I don't know what to tell you. But yeah Air Force totally had a strong schedule.
  15. UMFan83
    Yay, no Michigan, I guess you all agree that they didn't deserve it
  16. UMFan83
    You and me both. I'm not watching the selection show. I am cheering for them if they get in of course (looks to be about a 30% chance, Florida State, Hofstra, George Mason, Michigan and Seton Hall seem to be fighting for 2-3 spots), but I don't think they deserve it. Oh well 8 years without a rooting interest in the NCAA tourney, might as well wait more years.

    Isn't it funny how some of the country's uniforms look like MLB team uniforms? USA - Braves Dominican - Cubs road unis (I swear I was imagining David Ortiz in a Cubs uni last year, and Alou looked just like he did in 2004 with the Cubs) Italy - Looks a lot like the Dodgers road unis.
  18. UMFan83
    Seriously USA Basketball, USA Hockey and now USA Baseball. What the hell?
  19. UMFan83
    Just kidding I was way off
  20. UMFan83
    Who was the Cutoff man? It looked like DLee? I know he is the DH but it looked like a tall black man with the number 2_something
  21. UMFan83
    If Canada gave up 8 runs to South Africa, they can easily give up 5 to the US hitters. No worries
  22. UMFan83
    So wait, lets say that US loses today, but finishes 2-1 beating SA, Mexico beats SA and Canada, Canada loses to Mexico Canada 2-1 Mexico 2-1 USA 2-1 South Africa 0-3 USA over Mexico in head to head to head tie breaker Canada over US in head to head tie breaker Mexico over Canada in head to head battle The next tie breaker is runs allowed per inning Right now the US has given up 5 runs in 12 IP (.42 RPI) Canada has given up 8 runs in 11 IP (.73 RPI) Mexico has given up 2 runs in 9 IP (.22 RPI)
  23. UMFan83
    It would be like the US beating Canada in hockey, most of Canada probably cares less about baseball, but they will take the chance to rub it in our faces
  24. UMFan83
    What is it about US national teams disapointing lately? Hope this trend doesn't continue into the World Cup
  25. UMFan83
    Link? Who did they trade for him? PTBNL?
