  1. Was it "I think a breaking ball low and away will do him in right here."? I impress girls with that line all the time. By impress I mean I say it to them AIM and then they sign off.
  2. It would take her 7-8 drinks? Damn.
  3. Even though I was one of the few in favor of letting him go a couple years ago, I'm selfishly happy about this.
  4. Yep. Mainly, I'm just worried about losing his help de. And I'm worried about facing Amare on Christmas.
  5. FWIW, Noah has been playing pretty crappily for a little while now and the Bulls have still been clowning on the L.
  6. It'll be fine. I'd expect it to cost us 3ish games. Nothing devastating.
  7. Who's top 4? Celtics, Heat, Lakers, Mavs? Hollinger has the Spurs in there, not the Mavs. Sagarin has the Spurs in instead of the Lakers.
  8. FWIW, both Sagarin and Hollinger have us as the #5 best team today. For whoever doesn't know it, those aren't typical subjective power rankings but statistical models that churn out overall ratings based on numbers that I mostly don't understand. http://www.usatoday.com/sports/sagarin/nba1011.htm http://espn.go.com/nba/hollinger/powerrankings
  9. Especially when he's a guy with plantar fasciitis issues.
  10. I'd consider 45 wins, even without Noah for 2+ months, a disaster considering the start we've had and the remaining schedule. I agree with whoever said we can still go something like 20-10 over the next 30 and would've expected better with a healthy Noah. The suggestion was that the Bulls would go 20-10 with Noah in the lineup, not without. I'd consider 45 wins a huge disapointment too, it was just a number I threw out. I think it will be something like 50-32, but at the same time its really hard to understand how much we'll miss Noah until he isn't out there. When the Bulls didn't have Noah last year, they were a completely different and bad team. Obviously the team is better and deeper this year (except at Center of course...) but there will be a definite and noticable dropoff in the teams play eventually. I was the one who said I'd still expect 20-10 without Noah and would've been disappointed with that record with Noah.
  11. ...Rosenbloom, Phillips, and Stone? This... http://blogs.chicagosports.chicagotribune.com/rosenblog/2010/12/zambrano-wants-to-stay-a-cub-which-is-one-reason-pena-had-to-become-a-cub.html
  12. AlexKennedyNBA Alex Kennedy Some reports have said he'll miss ten weeks but sources close to Noah are optimistic the time frame will be closer to six-to-eight weeks.
  13. Can also go Boozer, Deng, Korver, Brewer, Rose against some teams
  14. Noah/Taj/Asik is probably comparable in value to Boozer/Taj/Asik and look how well we did in the tough part of our schedule with the former.
  15. I think we would've done better than 20-10 with him and think we can go 20-10 without him. Look at the next 30 games again.
  16. Uhhhhhh get out of here with that ERA crap you saber nerd Zambrano doesn't win games.
  17. It's been obvious that he has a hand injury for a while That said, he's been playing with this for a while without having the examination done that would reveal ligament damage? Huh?
  18. I'd rather do something like Bogans, JJ, and Watson (if that works salary wise)...
  19. Here's the excerpt on Z from that article, btw.
  20. Remember back in 07 spring training when AZ Phil (I think -or maybe it was Al Yellon) was reporting that Prior was showing his 03 stuff in workouts... ...and then we saw him pitch in a spring training game and he was topping off at like 81. Yea, that sucked.
  21. I'd give them a prospect and ask for nothing in return for them to take Soriano along with him. lol
  22. I have a feeling his desire to pitch for Mike Quade might temper a bit with the prospect of pitching for the New York Yankees...
  23. You think Z would have a major problem with going to New York and pitching for the Yankees with Rothschild?
