  1. That's what Cedeno becomes with McGehee(RH PH) and Hill(Blanco becomes a RH PH) getting called up. You think today was a sign that Lou's comfortable with DeRosa as the backup SS? No different than the dozens of times that Cedeno has pinch hit before the 9th inning and not remained in the game.
  2. Warning: If you're sick of or hate LOLCat stuff, you'll hate this post. That said, I found these amusing.

  4. I went with Westbrook when I drafted 3rd in a draft last week. LT and Peterson were the first two picks.
  5. The only way the Cubs don't win the division is if they can't beat the Brewers in those 2 series. If they were to split those 6 games and play only .500 ball in the rest of their games, the Brewers need a 15-5 finish aside from those series to beat them. If they win 4 of 6, then the Brewers need a 16-4 finish, assuming the Cubs only play at a .500 level.
  6. With an injury? I must've missed that.
  7. He's much better at throwing the ball to receivers that have no one around them for 15 yards in any direction than I thought. Seriously though, he did a fine job after a slow start accuracy wise. He would've been the hero of the game if he didn't have to make up a 4 TD deficit in 20 minutes. Related to that deficit, I was very happy with how Mizzou's O-Line did against that U of I front seven. Daniel's only sack was on a roll out, he wasn't evading sacks the whole game, and they did a nice job blocking for Washington. Who was Davis covering the whole night? I saw the nice deflection on the one sideline ball to Perry, but didn't notice him in particular(although I had no idea it was Saunders that caught the 3rd quarter TDs, to give you an idea of my seats) aside from that.
  8. If the closest moment in the second half is Illinois getting to the edge of the red zone down 2 scores, then immediately getting sacked and throwing a pick, I think that answers the question.
  9. I'm not getting the analogy. It's not like you guys pulled your starters. It's not like you were in the prevent, Juice was throwing over your secondary. It was pretty much a carbon copy of last year's game, and man am I pissed at the pants-wetting that our defense did. Illinois led for about 10 seconds the entirety of the game. Mizzou was up at least 2 scores for the entirety of the second half, and by as many as 25 points. It wasn't close.
  10. That was quite a fun time. And I don't know if humbled is the right word, but Truffle's obviously referring to what Warp dubbed the "lame smack talk" earlier in the thread. Good thing Mizzou won. Again.
  11. Tirod Taylor or however you spell his first name has been mentioned about a million times during the broadcast, and if they want to burn his redshirt. BG up 10 now.
  12. VTech gets bearmerballed, blocked punt for the go ahead touchdown with under 2 to play. The only question now is which ECU player Glennon throws an interception to. Bowling Green beating Pitt too. Herbstreit looks like a genius.
  13. The better team is much more likely to get hot over 30 games.
  14. The Cubs have 4 RH relievers that hold LH hitters to a .715 OPS or less. LH hitters have only 2 singles in 24 ABs against Samardzija. Plus Cotts and Marshall are currently in the pen. They're fine.
  15. Don't worry about blank. You let me worry about blank. Blank? Blank?! You're not looking at the big picture!
  16. Re: Neutral site games, I read that U of I's AD(is it still Guenther?) wants out of the Mizzou game, or at the very least wants it out of St. Louis and continuing as a home and home. Not sure how true that is, but there it is. Also, Mizzou-kansas may not stay at Arrowhead. Iowa State and Kansas State recently signed a deal to play at Arrowhead starting next year(the JUCO bowl, as it were). That may not be the same week, but it might be an indication that neither Mizzou or kansas have an interest in keeping the neutral site.
  17. Villanueva pitching a second inning when he threw 24 pitches in his first inning is well, awesome.
  18. Please tell me Braun didn't rob Mientkiewicz of a home run.
  19. Adam. Probably for arguing after he got rung up on a pitch a yard outside with multiple runners on.
  20. This is what happens when Salomon Torres is your best reliever.
  21. CC got a break http://img66.imageshack.us/img66/3307/luckycclo3.jpg
  22. If the Cubs play to their records they have against their September opponents, they'll go 14-11 in September. In which case the Brewers will have to play like .750 ball for 5 weeks to catch us.
  23. I imagine Dempster will be back. Marquis is under contract. If Marquis is dealt, or Dempster not brought back, I imagine Marshall, Samardzija, and Hill will be the guys in the mix for that last spot.
