  1. As long as he doesn't revert back to the player he was after April last year, it would be great if he started. Otherwise, Izturis is a better option.
  2. If Wuertz gets stuck in AAA for 3 months again this year I'm going to be all kinds of ticked off. He better be in the bullpen this year and stay there unless he gets injured. EDIT: And I have faith that if he's healthy, he will pitch well.
  3. I don't read your posts, yet I enjoy looking at the picture of the girl. Just had to get that out. Thanks I guess. Glad to know you don't read what I type. Why would we want to read what a stupid Cardinals fan thinks? Go back to GRB. :wink: :D
  4. I would have taken the Raiders but carniby beat me to it.
  5. It pisses me off that we have to play crappy, cheap shotting Latin American countries all the time because it doesn't help the progression of the US team all that much when the opponent plays that way.
  6. I don't see how you can give a yellow card out there. A foul, yes, but a card, no way.
  7. I love how blunt he is when he's making his points also. Instead of "he could have done a bit better", Wynalda will say "that was a horrible effort".
  8. I want to punch #8 on Guatemala in the face repeatedly.
  9. Go USA!! EDIT: I'll predict a 3-0 US victory.
  10. Wow...undrafted??!? Yup, we were talking about his team and I asked him if anybody took Prior and Wood (no) and then Hill. He said nobody drafted Hill which surprised me.
  11. Actually it was 2 complete games last year, not 1 (although the second one was rain-shortened). The only 9 inning complete game for the Cubs then smart-aleck. :D
  12. I sent him one also a couple days ago but haven't got an answer yet.
  13. Speaking of Mater Dei, I saw them a replay on TV of their D-II state title game against Archbishop Mitty and my god did they have some ridiculous height. I can't believe (after looking online) that Love had 36 points in that game. Love did it with a 102-degree fever. :) Mater Dei has the size (with the Wear twins), but they don't have much muscle up front. They also had 7'0 Alex Jacobson going to Arizona, 6'8 Taylor King going to Duke, and 6'8 Andy Brown (sophomore). But like you said, they didn't appear to have much muscle. Jacobson was pretty skinny, the Wear twins are sophomores and King was more of a SG/SF than a big man. They looked big but I couldn't believe how big until I looked up their roster on maxpreps. Kevin Love looks much stronger than any of the Mater Dei guys did.
  14. which would make him redundant on the Bulls, as we already have Noc filling that role An excellent point if Nocioni were 6-10. And if Noc was a flopper who constantly whined to the refs. Are you referring to Murphy or McRoberts? Either way, Nocioni mastered flopping long ago. He is Argentinian.
  15. Hansbrough will be worse than McRoberts. i agree I dunno. I think Hansbrough's motor alone guarantees him a Anderson Varejao style role, and he's obviously a better finisher/foul shooter than Varejao. He's also smaller, but I think he has a lengthy NBA career, even if he doesn't ever validate his draft spot. I can't say the same about McRoberts. He won't be able to go past anyone, he can't really step out on the deeper perimeter, and he's not big/strong enough to be a force underneath. Agreed. While I don't think either will be stars in the NBA, I think Hansbrough will have a longer and more successful career than McRoberts will.
  16. "With the first pick in the 2007 NFL draft, the Oakland Raiders select Calvin Johnson." Oh wait, that's just a dream and will never happen. :evil: I can already guarantee I'm not going to be happy on draft day for the second year in a row.
  17. Excellent. Thanks for the reminder.
  18. The same guy who got the only Cubs CG last year.
  19. Here's hoping Prior pitches well.
  20. How about we have even more fun and predict the number of strikeouts this year as well. In his four full years (2003 not included) he's had 170, 195, 168, and 194. I think he'll break his own record and finish with 201.
  21. Hmm...a bit more expensive but it does come with a 120 GB hard drive. I'll have to find out if my buddy would be able to mod this one (I would assume he would since it's still a 360). The large hard drive would also mean I wouldn't have to buy a separate hard drive to put in.
  22. My editor is in a fantasy baseball league with, I believe, a lot of Giants fans and Hill went undrafted. I strongly recommended that he pick Hill up. I think there are 10 or 12 teams in his league.
  23. HAHAHAHAHA!!! Good stuff. They should have kept that in there.
