  1. They're re-airing the NFC Championship on NFL Network right now. :)
  2. Tigres beat the Navegantes 6-2, box: C H. Blanco 0/3, K (1) 1B T. Pérez 0/3, RBI SS R. Cedeño 0/0, BB (1) - ejected in the second inning after the walk, for arguing with opposing pitcher Géremi González in a bench-clearing altercation: Overall (Finals): Henry Blanco (Leones): 0/3, 1 K Tomás Pérez (Navegantes): 0/3 Ronny Cedeño (Tigres): 0/0, 1 BB
  3. It's not everybody, Outshine, it's just me. And my reasoning...cheaper in house candidates are better then more expensive out of the org candidates. It is also my reasoning, that replacing Fuld/Walker, would be easier to replace then a vet who may be hot, at the time the Cubs are looking to call up Pie. It's no secret the Cubs want Pie in CF at some point in 2007, and Walker/Fuld would give Pie the least resistance for the position. And if Fuld/Walker does prove they are not major leaguers, then they will be gone quicker then Adam Greenberg. What I am saying is, I rather have Fuld/Walker in CF, then some crappy FA vet. Besides, I didn't say I was convinced that Fuld/Walker would be serviceable in CF, but considering the options, I rather have Fuld/Walker over somebody like Finley/Eric Young, or even a Shannon Stewart. Finley or EY or Shannon Stewart would outperform Chris Walker or Fuld. The furtherest Fuld has advanced in the minors was his half-season at high-A (assuming he's healthy enough to play). Both are worse defensively than Pie and Walker has major issues with contact. Pagan would likely do better. Pie would do better.
  4. How the hell did they let you graduate? From Northwestern, at that.
  5. Not sure what happens to the remaining 17.5%. By the way, the cheapest ticket to sell on the secondary market was about $2,400. :?: Bears: 17.5% Colts: 17.5% Remaining NFL Teams: 35% NFL (for sponspors, network parners, licensees): ~25% Dolphins: 5% -------------- Total: 100%
  6. He also chastised the Cubs last summer over the contracts they were handing out to draftees.
  7. Certainly, but judging by Lovie, Urlacher and P-Nut's comments in the media, you can tell they relish proving everyone wrong.
  8. 18 out of 21 national media analysts predicted the Saints would win. It wasn't just ESPN. Everyone keep doubting, keep doubting...
  9.

  12. I must not have seen the same Lansford:( I really wasn't impressed with his glove or arm. Must have seen him on some bad nights because the Boise announcer and BA sure gushed about his defense.
  13. Are you old enough to remember 85'? This is the stuff that makes me feel old, and I am not even that old. 1985 seems like it wasn't that long ago....but it was. I was 2 during that regular season, 3 in the Super Bowl (I vaguely remember the family party surrounding the game but that is all).
  14. Remember that mod Serena? She was better at laying down the smack.
  15. :roll: Unreal, or the Bulls could put a product out there that was good enough that this wouldn't happen. You think this would have happened when Jordan and Pippen were there? I can't stand how Chicago people don't understand that some people that live in the city want to support the hometown school. If Farmar would have been picked by Utah and then came to play the Clippers and the fans would have screamed for Farmar to come in I am sure you would have took issue with it. I believe they were chanting before the game even started, and even when the Bulls had tied up the game. If I were a Clipper fan, I'd take issue if Farmar (and he was the 12th man on the roster) came back to LA and the fans cared more about seeing him than watching the home team...of course I already said something similar earlier in the thread (in regards to Kapono/Miami and Hollins/Charlotte, who were two guys I liked way more at UCLA than Farmar).
  16. A pro team I root for (without Michael Jordan at the 2) in the championship game...this is so surreal...
  17. The reason we're so good on D is partly our depth on DL, I wouldn't trade away Ogun just because Anderson is capable of starting. I think Manning will make the strides needed, JA doesn't trade up in the draft normally.
  18. Usually right DE opposite the LT. So it will be Mathis vs. Fred Miller? ugggh, that could get ugly for the Bears, and fast. No, that's Tait.

  20. I like Willis a lot.
