  1. I thought it was him to was really confident about U of I covering 30 and betting so?
  2. It wasn't a great day for B12 North coaches making their debut. Prince at KSU beat Illinois State 24-23 after ISU went for the win on a 2 point conversion. EDIT: And SSR is probably uber-pissed that U of I only won by 25.
  3. Fantastic. Having gone so long without seeing Smith in game action, I didn't remember how big a difference it was until Coleman came in the game and skipped a throw then threw a pick. And that helmet-to-helmet call on Quinn was absolute nonsense. Reputation call that gifted ND the winning margin. At a bare minimum there were two times a GT player got hit like that with no call after that flag.
  4. Would you feel different if he continues this tear until the end of the year? Not at all.
  5. You are wrong. They haven't won because the teams they have been on haven't been good or lucky enough. Should we make a list of all the really great teammates that haven't won a ring? It's a very, very poor argument. Thomas leaving was the reason? The White Sox won a bunch of games because they pitched out of their minds and clubbed a bunch of home runs. I'm extremely skeptical Frank Thomas no longer being around inspired Jon Garland to have a career year.
  6. I didn't know "it looks like" or "it appears" or "I think" or "maybe" or "probably"" etc., etc. ad nauseum were the indicators of definitive statements. There were a whole lot of definitive statements about Hill being made. I'm not about to search and find who said them, I'm just saying they were made, and there were many of them.
  7. Solution: Let's stop making definitive statements about pitchers who have less than 50 MLB IP, especially after having a lot of success at lower levels.
  8. If you play for one run, then that's the most you're gonna get.
  9. Z-O-U! Someone is rocking out to the Fox NFL pregame song on my floor. Leaving for some tailgating at 4. I'm excited.
  10. Daytona is the only one I can think of, and I'm not sure if he did or not.
  11. With loses to which two, PSU and Michigan? Either that or they'll beat one of those two and lose to MSU.
  12. I think you'll see ND go 2-2 v. the Big 10 again.
  13. They're giving it to him as a lifetime achievement award, hoping he'll retire if he wins an MVP.
  14. Emphatic no to Theriot starting. He's a utility player that's going through a great stretch, counting on him beyond that would be foolish.
  15. Interesting, I've never heard of the "organizational 100 pitch limit" before.
  16. Shouldn't you be painting your face for the game right now? I understand what you're saying but I think if you have faith in your defense you can relax and pitch and not try to be perfect on every pitch. Gametime is at 6, plenty of time to get into a frenzy before then. :D I agree, and everything points to Maddux being able to trust his defense this year, which makes his comments odd.
  17. Maddux gave up a 23% LD% this year as a Cub, with an opposing BABIP of .306. So either Maddux was really really lucky or his defense was doing a lot more helping than he thought(the obvious answer is both had a role).
  18. Considering our performance of late against your Bucs, they need all the motivation they can get! :wink: In all seriousness, unless Chris Simms improves a LOT from last year, there's probably not a team in that division that can really stop Carolina from winning it. Aside from Atlanta, Nawlins, and Tampa.
  19. One would think you'd want to be on Iowa's broadcast to give Pie the award.
  20. Carolina unanimously picked to win the South? It's almost worth bookmarking.
  21. This sounds really great to say, but it's not particularly true.
  22. This is the same guy the Pirates had on a year ago when the Cubs were playing them. The Cubs scored like 5 runs and they didn't stop the interview once to say what was going on, it was like there wasn't a game on or something.
