  1. We just got bitch slapped for the first time tonight. Glad you are all OK with that, but I think this is real trouble
  2. I don't know it's never good to lose home ice and the kings have a ton of confidence and are a very good team. Not panicking but would prefer to win this one for sure. Despite Kyle pleading to anyone who will listen this series isn't a cakewalk and was never going to be I'm panicking. Getting completely dominated now.
  3. This is a real piece of crap collapse
  4. 2 goal lead blown like a clock striking 12
  5. OK, I still want to win but nice to know
  6. Sigh Unfortunately, eventually you gotta use him and then? Checkmate
  7. maybe espn's chance of the making the playoffs takes into account some of the differences.
  8. Who are the likely callups this year to be excited about? Alcantara and Hendricks?
  9. Theo either needs to get a solid package in return, or just pay the man. There can't be any of this "disappointed with what we got back" stuff.
  10. I should be more optimistic than I currently am. Positives: Samardzija, Castro, Rizzo, Hammel, Jackson lately, pythag. record. If you told me in March that they would be outscoring their opponent with substantial improvements from Castro and Rizzo, I would've be pleased. Yet, I'm not. Probably because if they go 60-59 the rest of the way (which will be tough considering the likelihood of dealing away their best pitcher(s)), they will finish 76-86. If we go 33-31 or so through July 30th, do we necessarily trade Shark? My belief is, he's gone.
  11. Looks like the Cubs are the most divergent pythag team in the majors right now.
  12. Your wives are either very nice, or liars.
  13. I feel better now, knowing that Castro will continue to prepare well and play hard - as we lose for years upon years more. I have no idea what you think you just read but it's not what I wrote. I honestly don't know why you decided to take this up as something to argue.

  15. I wouldn't have minded one bit if they drafted a solid offensive guy in the 2nd round instead of Ferguson. They would still have had Sutton in the 3rd.
  16. Don't know if it was on purpose or not, but nice timing posting this right as our one blue player was being extended. Forte has to be one of the most underrated players in the league if he is considered only a "good starter". They only have the charts out for 6 teams, but on the Bills they consider Spiller "high quality" and Fred Jackson a "good starter". In what world are Fred Jackson and Matt Forte on the same tier?? As they pointed out in the article, the tipping point from high quality to good starter for Forte was his league worse pass protection rating. ....just seems like an awful lot of average players for a team that ranked #6 in offensive DVOA last year. To me, Forte should be in the next category up, and I might try to make the case for Martellus, too.
  17. It would be just like the Packers to see him suddenly become a choir boy and then hit the pro bowl every year. Kid's got talent. There's no risk for them if he can't stay clean -- they just toss him back on the street. It's a good move, IMO.
  18. Stick a fork in em
  19. I nearly got heat stroke out there one year. I'm glad you like them but I'll try my best to sit somewhere else now
  20. If traveling from LA is going to be a problem then they should forfeit.
  21. Excellent start. As usual we beat both the opponent AND the refs. Suck me
