    Florida paper continues to insist that Bulls will draft Beasley and Miami will get Rose. http://www.sun-sentinel.com/sports/basketball/heat/sfl-roseheat0808,0,5566327.story

    But has absolutely no chance to be, unfortunately. By my calculation, Aramis is probably the fourth best third baseman in baseball right now. Only A-Rod, Wright, and Chipper could be picked ahead of him. Am I wrong? If you take age into account, I wouldn't even put Chipper ahead of him.

    Yea, given the small sample size, I think, despite his suckitude at the plate, he has managed to have an overall positive impact with a couple of huge (high leverage) catches he has made defensively. Obviously, that wouldn't hold up long term, but a couple of catches have been huge in the 7 or 8 games he has played.
  4. David
    Oh, he'll be doing plenty of that, amirite? lulz!

    Until you get payed for it then it's your job. Isn't that a good attitude to have about any job? Not taking your work home with you, seperating business and personal life, etc? Most people would praise any other professional who took that sort of attitude toward their life. Precisely. It's so unbelievably stupid how people bash players when they say things like this. I'm not going to say otherwise because I don't like said player.

    Actually, if I'm not mistaken, I think their backup catcher threw him out.

    FYI, NL All Star vote tallies should be announced today

    Maybe he'd get to play, ala Magic in 92. Different sport, but ya.

    I hate bad players. I love good ones. This is ok because my hatred applies only within the context of them as baseball players and I don't really pass judgment nor do I care about them as people (by and large, although there's probably a few players I build irrational attachments to).
  10. David
    I'm not worried about it.

    Seems like a mature crowd over there. It's a fun group for those who have a sense of humor and aren't easily offended. while i do enjoy this board, i would really love there to be a no holds barred cubs forum... oh well...maybe i should start one! :stickman: Desipio is the closest you'll get to that, but I am just not a fan for some reason.

    Seems like a mature crowd over there. That forum is great.

    Did Soriano actually look semi-healthy there? :shock:
  14. David
    hahahhahahahahha wow hilarious how he shows up right on cue
  15. David
    On a totally unrelated note, did I deal you your first losing week in NSBB keeper, vance? :)
  16. David
    Has anyone seen Sori run at all tonight?
  17. David
    Seems their rightfileders have been killing us with great catches. It really feels like a lot of that has been happening to us all year against all teams. Giles immediately comes to mind.

    http://podloc.andohs.net/dloadTrack.mp3?prm=2031xhttp://query-origin.andohs.net/8000A6/content-root3.andomedia.com/origin/mp3/espnradio/dailydish/nbadish080522.mp3 Chad Ford interview with Paxson... He gave a run down of the things he looks for in a player and he really focused on wanting a difference maker and a leader..."a guy who can establish the pecking order on this roster" (or words to that effect)... Said this finally gives the team an opportunity to perhaps get that special type of player. Chad Ford basically followed that with, "It sounds like you're describing Derrick Rose." Paxson basically dismissed that a bit but didn't really deny it. Just said that he's describing the type of player he liked. He also blasted the report out of the Florida paper saying that we're set on Beasley. Says they aren't leaning either way as of yet, as there are no LeBrons in this draft.

    What'd he say?
  20. David
    I don't think there's any irrational love for Rose because he's from the Chicago area, that didn't turn out so well last time (see: Eddy Curry). If there's any irrational love for Rose, it is because he's a PG, and any self respecting Bulls fan should have an affinity for a star PG that can run the show (see: Michael Jordan). Jordan wasn't a PG, but I'm with you on the general point.
  21. David
    That would be a ridiculous deal for the Bulls. That's about what Hinrich is worth, but getting him outta him would be much more valuable. How is it ridiculous if that's about what he's worth? If you're going to dump him for Rose anyway, I find an extra mid-first round pick to be entirely palatable. I'm pretty sure he meant ridiculous in a good way.

    end of the season is gonna be rouuuuuuuuuugh, with a ton of NL central battles. It'd be nice if we could have a comfortable lead before we get there, not gonna happen apparently yea... i'm not sure that's really determined yet but ok.
  23. David
    The Score is reporting that the Bulls are gauging interest in Hinrich throughout the league. Also that Portland has supposedly come to them and offered up their pick (13th) for him...
  24. David
    Wishful thinking. Not a chance in hell it happens. We've done it before. Didn't turn out so hot. Don't remind me.
  25. David
    I haven't heard much good about his intelligence, basketball or otherwise. But I admit, I've only been reading scouting reports and articles on the guys. I'm not a huge college basketball guy.
