    Comedy Central should cancel Reno 911 instead.

    I can understand the frustration with Marquis, but to say Prior, Miller, and Guzman are better than he is "without a doubt" and that the Cubs have 7-8 guys who can match his performance is certainly questionable. Prior, Miller, Guzman, and the other young pitchers have a lot of question marks next to their names. I can see saying that about Prior and Miller, both are major league pitchers, and if healthy could out perform Marquis. But Guzman and Marshall are unproven on the ML level, so we have no way of knowing if they can outperform Marquis, let alone handle the work-load of a full season. Marshall pitched better than Marquis last season.

    I gotta agree, Sound Bite Airhead has a much better ring to it than Joe Buck.

    Is this because all Japanese pitchers are alike? Just like all white pitchers? Oh c'mon Tim, you know that isn't what he meant. What he meant (I assume) is that he's somewhat of a novelty because of his unorthodox pitching. Nomo had the crazy windup, and Mats has the gyroball. The difference as I see it, is that a rotation is something that can be adjusted to after a while. However, a pitch is something that, while it can be expected and looked for, can still fool you time after time. All hitters know what a curveball is, but it still fools them time after time. So, as far as unorthodoxy goes, Mats' legacy should have the one up on Nomo's. i thought the gyro ball was a myth It is. ---- Matzusaka has much better stuff than Nomo. Daisuke isn't a gimmick pitcher and I think it's an awful comparison.

    Geez, college punters are violent this year.
  14. CaliforniaRaisin
    Thanks, CFICT. Yay, he rates Felix #1! I disagree with a lot of the rest of the list.

    Take it easy on us! We might be 10-1, but its as strong as the Wisconsin footballs record. We lost to the only above average team we played (NC State) Ehh, UCLA has looked sloppy since leaving Maui. We'll see. I was supposed to have tickets to the game but UCLA has a stupid new rule that you have to have a current Bruin Card for tickets in the Den. :x
  16. CaliforniaRaisin
    UCLA wins 75-61, slept through most of the game but it really wasn't as close as the final score. Up next, Michigan at Pauley on Saturday at 11 am.
  17. CaliforniaRaisin
    Umm, wow. Sam Houston State's nickname is "Bearkats." Yes. With a k.
  18. CaliforniaRaisin
    UCLA up 35-29 at the half. :|

    Man, they love blowing their whistles in the Illinois-Mizzou game.
  22. CaliforniaRaisin
    Please don't swear on the boards. Thanks.

  25. CaliforniaRaisin
