  4. Possibly the best sentence in an NBA story ever.

  6. Exactly. How can you have a guy like Khryapa who hasn't played in several games get close to 20 minutes tonight? How can guys like Tyrus, Thabo, and Sweetney not even play? His substitutions are maddening and most of the time, they make no sense. The whole deal of benching Gordon and starting Duhon is absurd. Duhon is a good defender, but he doesn't do anything on offense. And when he starts, it moves Hinrich to the 2 where he is not comfortable at all. If Gordon starts, not only would it help us on offense, but it brings Kirk back to his natural position. I think it's reached the point of just being defiant. "Oh yeah, you think Gordon should start? Well guess what. You're not the coach, I am!" It sure looked like the plan was for Hinrich to bring it up and get it to Gordon but couldn't when Kidd stripped the ball and had to get up that desperation shot himself.
  7. Licey beat Cibao 14-1: RP J. Mateo 1 IP, 0 R, 0 H, 1 K/1 BB Overall: Juan Mateo (Licey): 7 IP, 2 ER, 7 H, 8 K/1 BB, 2 HR, 2.57 ERA, 1.14 WHIP
  8. I never believed Skiles was a coach who could lead the Bulls to the promised land - not with his personality vs. the types of players needed for a championship run. The most aggravating thing for me has always been Skiles piss poor subsitutions and rotations. Gordon not starting and Duhon getting so much playing time are the most egregious example.
  9. It took me a while to realize Monday is MLK Jr. Day. Wish I had it off. :(
  10. Final regular season stats: Geovany Soto (Arecibo): 13/73, .178/.228/.274/.502, 5 BB, 19 K, 7 2B Federico Báez (Manati): 24.2 IP (14 G, 1 GS), 12 R, 11 ER, 21 H, 13 K/11 BB, 1 HR, 4.01 ERA, 1.30 WHIP, .219 BAA, 3 S Arecibo advanced to the playoffs.
  11. I'm not the biggest Ginn fan, but you know he's going to do well in the combines and test well. If I were him, I'd go. He certainly has the talent to play in the NFL right now, and if he stays to prove he can stay healthy, he'd likely be a top 5 pick. If he goes to the NFL now, he'll be a top 15 pick. Meanwhile, if he were to suffer another season-ending injury (another broken collarbone, a la Charles Rogers) he'd certainly fall out of the first round. I say, take the millions while you can. The life span of a RB is especially short, and if you're gonna take a pounding carrying the ball 200 or 300 times, get paid for it if you can. Exactly.
  12. Mel doesnt have any other CB in his top 25. (I havent looked at other boards yet). So who would be. I like a couple of juniors more than Hall - Antoine Cason of Arizona (has not yet declared, but I think he will) and Darrelle Revis of Pitt (declared yesterday).
  13.

  20. I don't think Oden will turn pro, but Durant is a nice fall back option.
  21. Leones lose 5-2, box: C H. Blanco 2/4, RBI Overall: Henry Blanco (Leones): 47/201, .234/.292/.323/.615, 2 HBP, 17 BB, 27 K, 3 HR, 9 2B, 2/3 SB, 3 E --- Angel Guzmán (Navegantes): 25.2 IP, 8 R, 6 ER, 18 H, 24 K/4 BB, 2 HR, 2.10 ERA, 0.86 WHIP, 26 GO-24 FO
