    Wow, how can you rate Buehrle ahead of Zambrano?
  2. CaliforniaRaisin
    Yes, Downs might start, although I hope not, since I'm pretty sure he's no more than roster-fill. I suppose he's got a Phil Norton type ceiling, but I admit I'm not that excited about these mid-80's junk lefties. Maybe his father can persuade us that he might someday grow into a Mark Guthrie fastball... Just wait for those growth plates to take over!! I want to see Pawelek in Peoria and the sooner the better, but I wouldn't be surprised if the Cubs leave him in Mesa at least to avoid the cooler weather in the MWL. They already displayed some caution with Pawelek last year, I would expect to see some more now.

    I just came here to post about this. I like Grossman, but this is a move that needs to be made. I don't know how good he'd be without Gates. Fixed. That's my concern. I think it's both, LDT is a great pass-receiving RB and a great fall-back option.

    Do they monitor/block any Internet sites out there?
  5. CaliforniaRaisin
    Not necessarily ridiculous, the Bulls are going to have a tough time being really successful with two short guards. Of course I don't think the Bulls will get good value for Gordon.

    Cal beats Arizona in Berkeley to tie up idle UCLA for first place in the Pac-10. Leon Powe is a beast, if Brandon Roy beats him for Pac-10 POY, there's something wrong. Stanford remains one back of UCLA and Cal.

    What Virginia TE? Pope (Georgia) should be a late first rounder; Lewis (UCLA) might sneak in. I'd guess Lewis, Fasano (ND) and Byrd (USC) should be second or even third rounders.

    Padding the post count, eh Tim?

    If a young pitcher is ready for the big leagues but has some health issues, you'd think the best strategy would be to promote him to the big leagues so as to maximize his healthy days. I don't think Ponson can beat out Reyes if there's a fair spring training competition and neither gets injured.

    Randy Wells getting some love!

    Personally, I'd rather Aramiz and Z risk injury after the season then before it.
  12. CaliforniaRaisin
    Nice win. It's nice to see 4 of the past 5 Bulls game on TV.
  13. CaliforniaRaisin
    I don't think that's true though I'm not sure. I tried snowboarding once but it was too annoying to go back to being a beginner. That bowl is great if the snow and light are good. I like Palli's though that falls into quick exhaustion category. I've done both (though much more snowboarding) and I have to agree with UK.
  14. CaliforniaRaisin
    Man...Vance defending Wade Miller? That's news! :P I can't see Ponson being better unless Miller is hurt.

    Stanford loses 80-76. :evil: The Cardinal pulled a UCLA and missed a bunch of key FTs.
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    Grr, Stanford had led all game but Gonzaga has come out on a 6-0 run to start the second half. Now Gonzaga up 44-43. Dick Vitale is sooooooo annoying.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    UCLA lost to Washington by 3. Didn't see the game, but sounds like UCLA was awful at the line and the refs were pretty shady...53 fouls called (between the two teams) in the game is ridiculous. :evil:
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    And that Arte Moreno is getting the hell out of there the second he can.
  19. CaliforniaRaisin
    Posting this just for sulley. My friend took this; it's Lute having a temper tantrum (or doing a jig) at Pauley last weekend: http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v177/Navinda/IMG_1573.jpg

    FB was down to 88-91 at Boise, but that curve was reportedly improved (especially the one game I saw on video - his 10 K game).
  21. CaliforniaRaisin
    I'll watch the snowboarding, enjoyed the boarding in the X-Games.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    That's less points than your football team gives up. :wink: Ouch!! That's because the basketball team actually plays defense. :P UCLA actually started off ahead 14-0, so the announcers had to make about 20 football score jokes.
  23. CaliforniaRaisin
    UCLA beat WSU 50-30. Wazzou scored 12 in the first half. It's UCLA's first 20-win season since 2001-2002. :) Cal beat Stanford at Berkeley by 3 to stay 1 game behind UCLA in 2nd place. Stanford falls 2 back of UCLA. Washington beat a Gabe Pruit-less USC in Seattle to snap a 3-game losing streak. Big game Saturday, UCLA at Washington.
  24. CaliforniaRaisin
    At least I got to watch the very exciting Stanford-Cal game instead. Stupid Bulls.
  25. CaliforniaRaisin
    I don't think Reddick's game will translate well to the NBA. I'd prefer a 4 and a 2 who can create for himself and get to the rack.
