    That's cruel. But yeah, it gave me a good chuckle. It loaded slow for me too, so I was wondering "WTF why is Huet on a cover for NHL 11?"
  2. Soul
    LOL yeah. "Hey, I'm feeling much better NOW!"

    Pargo's triumphant return 8-)

    well, that's gotta all but seal it that the hawks will fit under the cap and probably be able to bring back niemi. That would be great!

    I never claimed it was possible to prove. Nobody knows what Pippen would have been like if Jordan didn't exist, or if Pippen played in Seattle. Kinda sucks for Scottie. How does it suck for Scottie? He won 6 titles. He's a legend. I don't think he'd trade that in to be Jason Kidd or Dirk Nowitski. Yea, I don't care if I can't exactly quantify a hypothetical Jordan-less career for Scottie. He was a great Bull. He's a legend. That's all that matters to me.

    Berman...... I wouldn't miss it if I never heard him again.

    I'll second the notion that Jon Miller is pretty good to listen to. I'd like to be able to tune into him on ESPN without Morgan.

    Why? An old man in bad health for a decade finally died. I don't know why. He's always been there. Mostly as the guy I loved to hate in baseball. I guess it is a strange reaction to have given the situation. He hasn't been around for years. He's been in hiding because he's been failing for so long. And the announcer guy was 99 years old. I don't get how anybody could be surprised by either death. Understood. I didn't really mean I was surprised. It just made me stop for a second and I got that "feeling." Then I realized all the things you just said. In terms of the game, it will be interesting to see what, if anything, happens to the Yankees. I suspect very little, at least in the short term. But long term? Hopefully they eventually drop back down to longer term suckage.

    Well, the Cleveland fans I've spoken to tell me they knew or very strongly suspected Lebron would leave long before he did. What I'm getting from my very small sample size is that it was all about how he did it, not that he did it. I certainly can't blame him for going to Miami. It sounds like a great basketball situation for him. The "Decision" show -- the big bash in Miami? Eh, I didn't really care but I can understand someone criticizing him for that.

    Just wanted to post: I'm really glad I turned on the end of that game now. Nice work, Byrd. =D>

    Never trust a Cardinal. And 2 Cardinals? Run screaming.
  12. Soul
    Probably because the Cubs kinda suck and don't deserve 2 All Stars. So because a guy's team sucks he shouldn't be recognized? In the semi-twisted world of all star roster building? Probably, yes.

    Hey, an actual comeback. Didn't expect that :)

    I saw this at the top of Google news. It gave me chills. Definitely a 'Wow' moment. RIP.

    I fully expect the Hawks to make the playoffs, easily. Fans of other teams are hoping we don't, but that doesn't make it so.
  17. Soul
    I think its pretty accurate, he deserved it. He can afford it.

    I don't remember a ton of criticism, but I also don't remember as much overflowing love for Hammer and I am seeing now. I'm glad we matched; you guys know more about Hockey than I do so I'll defer to your happiness :) See ya Niemi, it was a fun FUN ride.
  19. Soul
    Well I would too...but that doesn't mean they won't still suck. If it was 5.1, I'd have a harder time betting higher. Sure, but 5.1 isn't 3.1

    Need more games vs. Zona. We traveled a bit too far West it seems :(

    If it really was the choice, I guess I'd choose to leave Wrigley behind and win the WS. But I look at recent years; we've had our shots. '03, '08 -- these were legitimate contending ballclubs, IMO. It just didn't work out. But it showed to me that the Cubs are perfectly capable in current conditions of contending. I don't think a shiny new ballpark is going to make us more a contender. I actually wouldn't mind seeing it at some point, though.

    So this is what, the 3rd or 4th thread on this topic?
  23. Soul
    Yeah, I'm not buying 3 wins for Detroit. I think they'll be a little better than that.
  24. Soul
    They've convinced me. I think the Heat are on their way to dynasty. I think you're going to see a gravitation to that team of players who want a piece of what those 3 players have started building. Riley's at the helm of that ship -- it'll be humming along with a minimum of distraction and drama. We'll see if I'm dead wrong. I concede that I could be.
  25. Soul
    Not many Lebrons laying around who are making huge team moves. Maybe we'll see this sort of thing again, but with this level of ratings muster? Doubtful. There's also the law of diminishing returns to think about...
