I thought I had heard that Rush was coming back to Lawrence (going back a few pages).

Arron Afflalo represents UCLA with class and dignity (this after Morrison talked crap to Afflalo all game): http://i21.photobucket.com/albums/b284/gefiltepez/Afflalo_morrison.jpg

My mom, not 5 minutes ago, as our local CBS affiliate kept showing replays of Adam Morrison: "Navin, I'm tired of seeing Adam Morrison cry, no matter how much fun it is."

Apparently you haven't read/seen what Morrison says and does on the court if you think he's not a bad person.

That was possibly the greatest sports moment in my life not involving Michael Jordan. Apologies to Kerry and the 2003 Cubs.

If Ryu isn't starting in Chicago, I hope he's at Iowa starting.

How old was Z when he came up and stayed on the Cubs? How much experience in the minors did he have? I'd like to see one of these kids get into the rotation. true. but even then, who was thought of to be the real prospect and the relief guy between he and cruz? On the other hand, both Z and Cruz were thought of more highly than Ryu, Marshall, Hill or Guzman are right now.

But you have an LSU avatar?

I hope this ends as well as you rooting for USC against Texas.

Terrell Owens the football player is better than Randy Moss the football player. :opens up off-topic can of worms:

Sounded like Angel crushed that one.

Wow! :shock: If he's up to 94 again... He's been at 91-92 since that first fastball. Not bad. He has been mostly in the upper 80s (topping out around 90-91) the past few seasons.

Wow! :shock: If he's up to 94 again...

Good call.

0.2 IP, 5+ R 7 now. :D

I agree. Ugh, Pie HBP. He sounds alright.

Yay Dope! RBI double.

Agreed. Yeah, it's Embree. Bellhorn with an error. :(

Ok that's not helping the rest of us buddy :evil: 18-year old Dylan Johnston - a 4th round pick from last June who has only played at Rookie ball - just hit a bomb off Hoffman.

Dylan Johnston hit a HR off Trevor Hoffman. :shock:

It's the top of the 6th.

Found an interesting Dayton Moore audio piece and am listening to that instead.

Good. I have UCLA in the Final Four Not sure how that's good, Jordan is UCLA's second best player and starting point guard. There are major questions in regards to his shooting ability right now with the injured wrists. Morrison should be ok by tomorrow evening or close enough that it's not that big a cocnern.

Hey, it's ST for Klesko's arguing skills too.

Iowa: Nic Jackson is back and healthy. Daytona: Sean Gallagher, Luke Haggerty, Darrin Downs, Mike Billek, Mark Holliman were the notable pitchers. Peoria: Mark Pawelek, Donald Veal, Jesus Yepez, Scott Taylor, Mark Reed, Ryan Norwood. Rookie/Boise(?): The only names I recognized were Mercedes and Albuquerque. Saw Pawelek and Taylor pitching on Sunday in the rain. It was tough to tell since I was immediately behind Mark, but it does look like he cleaned up his windup compared to what I saw on video last year in Boise. His FB looked good, had more zip on it than Taylor's (obviously). His offspeed pitches had nice bite on them, but he didn't have that great control with them.

I thought I had better pics - especially of Sean Gallagher, Nic Jackson, Eric Patterson and Luke Haggerty, but alas, they look even worse and smaller. :( Talked to Ryan Harvey's dad for a few seconds - he said the Cubs were having him work on his pitch selection (yay) but before I could ask how, a coach came by and he went to talk to him. This fan next to me in the stands at Fitch was looking for some autographs of minor leaguers. He saw this blonde, about age 20, and decided to go hit on her. It was rather obvious he was a player's girlfriend. He started flirting with her and Ryan Harvey comes right then and there; the fan realizes he was hitting on Ryan's girlfriend and freaks out. Ryan looks perplexed for a second, then notices the fan's card collection with Harvey's card on top and asks him if he wants it signed. The fan says yes and looked relieved.
