    Yeah, Harris was decent. He seemed to show more with Carolina too. At the time we operated under the delusion that Archuleta was a good fit for Lovie's D, and that his problems with Washington were because he went to a system that didn't fit him. That was clearly wrong, in hindsight.......as was the release of Harris. I understand what Lovie & Angelo were trying to do, but it was clearly a miss.

    Anderson is pretty good, but their color guy is a shameless excuse maker/apologist, plus he sounds like he is always talking with his mouth full. Their color guy is Bill Schroeder. I don't find him to be particularly shameless when compared to others. Actually is quite complimentary to the Cubs when they do something good. I really don't mind needing to watch the Crew's broadcast when the Cubs play them.

    Beat the Natties!

    In that case 2010 looks to be like most every year.

    I choose to believe Ramirez has just woken up, as evidenced by last night's performance. I'll wait to be proven otherwise. Lee? Hopefully soon. I have no reason to believe he won't get it going. In the meantime there have been plenty of good things happening in our lineup with other players. I'm encouraged.

    That's how I feel about it. He's just there cheering on the Cubs, rather than providing much insight. I don't really care if he's "good" or not.

    So it's the white, shining, clean, champion Canucks standing on a hill defending the Holy Land of Vancouver... ......against the fat, nasty, low-life, dirty, cheating Hawks. LOL, gotta love Canadian hockey fans.

    Enough with the damn makeup calls, k?!?

    Win tonight, or I shall be very distressed and grumpy and prone to alcohol consumption.

    LOL that article is pretty much what I would expect to read on a fan blog.

    If LeFevour impresses, then just cut Hanie and replace him with LeFevour. That wouldn't be any worse situation in case of injury than we would have had last year if Cutler went down. If they're really worried about a Cutler injury, then that's new: they certainly didn't care much about it last year considering who they would have had to play in Jay's place.

    The Ramirez slump surely won't last much longer (I know, famous last words). He actually had much better ABs in the 2 games I saw him this weekend. He made solid contact a few times -- just didn't place it where the defenders weren't. He didn't look lost at the plate. Of course, Brewer pitching is bad, but then again so is the pitching for some other teams.

    Most knew it from the beginning, but yeah: Crew's got some major league pitching problems. Fun couple of games to be at. Had a good time.
  14. Soul
    Ok. For some reason I was thinking O got more. My bad.

    Well I don't know anything about how the league judges suspensions, but I have to try to be unbiased. The Hossa hit looked nearly identical to Ovechkin's, except a little less malicious. O got what, 8 games? Seems like the league would look at a lesser suspension for Hossa, but still a suspension. I haven't heard of one yet though.

    Was at the game tonight. Was great to see Lilly get off to a good start. Brewer fans at the game seemed even more disdainful of Cub fans than usual. That's about it. Oh, thanks for leaving Narveson in even though he was sucking, Macha. That was helpful.

    What an amazing game. Playoff hockey is so awesome.

    We lost 3 DEs this offseason in Ogun, Adams, and Brown. Peppers is one player. I don't mind that pick so much, although I find myself wondering once again what the plan is to improve the oline and better protect our franchise player.

    You're just mad that LeBron took his SATs. The way I see it, you either learn to ignore his antics, or learn to like them. Because they aren't going away any time soon and it's not worth getting upset over.

    The Bulls weren't going to expend any more energy than necessary against a team like Washington that year. They did exactly what was required to win, nothing more. They had a championship to win, and Washington wasn't worth blowing out by 20. Jordan did things like that because he knew it would stick in players' craw, which from Webber's comments 13 years later it sounds like he still hasn't gotten over it.

    The shots may have been even, but I saw better play from the Hawks in the zone last night. There appeared to be much more action in front of the net (in my limited knowledge). Rinne may have had an off night, but Niemi looked very solid to me. There were a couple times he made good saves to keep the Preds from getting anything going. To be honest I didn't focus much on Campbell, but it was nice to see him back in the lineup. Now we'll see if the Preds have any adjustments for us for game #5. This is a tough series, but if we can get past it then I think it ultimately helps us because there won't be a single player on this team who goes into the next series with the idea that they can let up on the gas pedal.

    ARam gets his rest.
  23. Soul
    We've got to post a few wins with both Sori and Soto answering the questions.
  24. Soul
    Heck swap Sori & Aramis
  25. Soul
    I may have seen ARam struggle this bad at the plate but I don't remember it.
