Would surprise team = the Royals for Meche? Would Wittenmeyer or whoever originally referred to it as a surprise team refer to the Royals as such? -
http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2009/12/cubs-to-remain-jumbotron-free-at-wrigley-field.html This would be pretty cool. Yea, we could always access stats on the internet, but this should be faster and easy access to quick replays would be awesome.

Maybe difficult to coach in the sense that he couldn't figure out how to field any position all that well. That's about it.

You would be wrong. No, I'm not. Edit: Stupid swear filter ruined the other part of what I wanted to say, so allow me to rephrase. You aren't smart enough to be dismissive of others opinions... especially without giving reasons why. You merely come off as an ass. I'm pretty sure, not positive (but I've always gotten this impression) that SZJ essentially just trolls here re: all the crap Hendry gets. In other words, he's making fun of the way that Hendry can't do anything right on NSBB.

This will be one hell of a fight. I can't wait. Finally, Mayweather is facing somebody legit.
-
anybody know what the ppv count was on the pacquiao-cotto fight? because people were saying that it would have had to be 1.5 mil for mayweather to consider it, and even then it would have been a longshot for mayweather to split the purse 50-50. we'll see if it happens, i hope it does. i'd love to see mayweather retire undefeated after smoking him. Pac vs. Cotto did 1.25 million buys on PPV. And Mayweather doesn't smoke anybody. He out points and doesn't get hit. Pacquiao smokes people. And yes, this fight must happen. PBF will have a huge black mark on his career if he doesn't fight Pac. This.

No Arby's for Harden, Gregg, Johnson

There always will be injury concerns with Wood. His shoulder is jacked up. Remember when his career looked like it was over and then he miraculously recovered in a few weeks? -
oh my god the irony

Random normal mainstream music has been playing over that crappy PA for a hell of a lot longer than the Go Cubs Go stuff. They played YMCA during a pitching change during one of the first games I went to in like 1996. They played Walkin on Sunshine (ugh) or Get Down Tonight after wins before the Go Cubs Go...

My bad, didn't look in the sticky. -
http://www.chicagobreakingsports.com/2009/12/cubs-wont-offer-arbitration-to-harden-gregg-johnson.html Looks like it's going to happen, as expected.

Hanley Ramirez to the Red Sox?
David replied to Backtobanks's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
The Cubs have been linked to Halladay and Granderson, despite probably not being in a position to trade for a high priced player at this point. And they're in the conversation for big names all the time. What are you talking about? -
lol if every game were like this (domination of a great team, no problem), i could probably drum up some interest, haha
-
You should join the bandwagon. I was indifferent towards the Hawks for several years despite growing up a big big fan (early to mid 90s) and I got back on 2 seasons ago and am enjoying everything about it. I just have a hard time seeing myself being able to get emotionally invested in a team/sport I've never cared about, at this point. I tried during the playoffs last year but I just could not muster up any interest. It sucks because it looks like they're gearing up for a pretty fun run here.
-
I hate you guys for actually caring about this stuff. Watch the Blackhawks win a Cup this year so that we get two championships from the two Chicago teams I couldn't care less about in the past 5 years, while the teams I care about all suck. ](*,)
-
3 of our losses have been games almost impossible to win.. @ Boston, @ LAL, @ Denver. I can't really fault them for losing those games... blown leads or not.
-
I expected a much worse start than this.

Unless something changed while I wasn't paying attention, I don't think he ever was.

I love Stacey King.

I like how he blames the Bears being a running team on their QB struggles. He obviously hasn't watched any Bears football this year. Isn't the point that they emphasize the run only and use the passing game as an afterthought? They went out and got a big time QB this offseason, but they still have an incompetent offensive coordinator who has been in the NFL and big ten college football for 2 decades and has yet to be involved in the development of a good QB. And they gave him no receivers. It's sort of like ignoring the offensive line for over half a decade, then spending one first rounder on a guy and pretending you've solved the problem. Lovie still talks about this team being a running team, even though that's a joke. They live in a bygone era where winning and losing is all about running the ball, when in fact passing has dominated this league for a very long time. Teams like New England don't even pretend to emphasize the run. Chicago still tries to act like they are a running team and are really only begrudgingly going all pass due to running incompetence. They need to embrace their passing ways. They need a real QB coach, a real offensive coordinator, a quality line and better weapons at receivers. Exactly right.

Actually, the .3 seconds for the rebound/timeout is explicitly written out in the NBA rulebook. The problem with the shot is that Miller wasn't facing the basket when he caught the ball. Took too much time to turn and shoot. Interesting. Did not know that. But that seems pretty stupid. Establish possession of the ball in 3 tenths of a second (both for the rebound and for the catch and shoot)? I just don't see it, but I guess.
-
To be fair, as far as the last shot is concerned, there's no way that Joakim rebounding that ball after the free throw, the time out, and Brad Miller getting the shot off happened within .6 seconds. Not a chance in hell.
-
Oh wait, I can point out one time when the Bulls got the benefit of a bad call. I guess that means that they were even.
