  1. Agreed. Give the MVP to the rest of the NL Central.
  2. yeah, I think I'd find another team to root for at that point I would too but only because of OJ.
  3. By the end of the offseason, Jones could definitely have some value considering his contract in this market, and he had a career year too. Especially if some team gets shut out from making offensive upgrades. Unfortunately, the one GM who is just ga-ga for overvaluing player's break out 06 seasons is the one and only Jim Hendry. Bill Stoneman says hi. I don't think anyone will top the GMJ signing. Truly a head shaker.
  4. I would love to see Tejada in a Cubs uniform but I doubt it happens.
  5. If used correctly steroids can help out a player a lot though.
  6. Supposedly, Maddux and Hendry parted on good terms in July. Though still somewhat improbable, with Piniella now in town, Maddux coming back to the Cubs is no longer impossible in my opinion. In fact, if the Padres, Giants or D-Backs don't grab him in the next week or so, I could see Hendry re-signing Greg to a 2-year $20M deal. Eww. No. I love Maddux, but it's time to let go. We need to do better. He's no 2/3 starter. Agreed. No thanks on 2/$20M for Maddux.
  7. That's what it sounds like.
  8. Agreed. That's why I'm not too disappointed I can't watch.
  9. Once again: That game should never have been that close. Ohio State thoroughly dominated the game, and if not for Troy Smith fumbling a snap and Doug Datish completely botching another, Ohio State wins the game by 13 or 17 and we're not even having this discussion. but they did, so it was that close. As they say, if the Queen had balls... The point is, it's not like Michigan played well enough to force a rematch. OSU just played imperfectly enough to keep the game close. So where does USC look so great that they deserve #2? Their conference was weaker this year The Pac 10 was arguably the best conference in the nation this year.
  10. Grrr...SF vs. New Orleans!? At least you get SD-Buffalo instead of Oakland-Houston on CBS.
  11. stay classy vance I'll send him some Chunky soup. That's good vance. Cruel, but good.
  12. did a ksu player punch someone tonight? edit: yes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z2ZuIXI1VgM let the huggins era begin. Colon's a freshman too, that should mean Huggins brought him in. Wow. colon already punched a fellow teammate in the weight room, according to reports. sounds like a class act. oh, and he's most definitely a huggy recruit. That was classy by Colon, that's for sure. Also, I've never seen a basketball player with a mohawk before. :shock: Yeah, that was awesome...the mohawk not the punch.
  13. "You can have chemistry, I want talent." Dickie V just isn't the same when his voice is gone. Quite the first half so far in Chapel Hill.
  14. What does that even mean? Bill Gates entered into a industry where he does not belong...Hes a computer guy..He has no buisness entering a industry that is run by the Japanese..There should only be Nintendo and Sony..The first XBox,complete failure,Looked like a VCR,Ugly controller,pretty poor game selection except for Halo and a few others...Its pretty much like cars to sum it up...Toyota,Honda,Mitsubishi,Are the top cars on the market,all Japanese, because they last forever,break down half as much as an american car..Then you got Gates.who is like, General Motors,producing crap that cant even compare..Bottom line, Japanese are better than us with cars and electronics..We can try, but well never overtake them,the guy is should stick to making PC's and stuff he knows, not something the japanese are masters of It sounds like you just don't like Bill Gates.
  15. Rainbow Six and GOW make the 360 so damn tempting tho... Not to mention Halo 3. ETA: If it was my choice, I would get the 360.
  16. Tipoff in Chapel Hill with...DICKIE V BABY.
  17. Of course they do. Teams that win impressively are often moved ahead of teams that don't win impressively. This in turn effects the BCS. The same goes for losses. If someone beleives that Michigan didn't play as well as the score indicated, then sure, it does matter. When and where? Before you go looking don't waste your time. It is impossible. There are too many variables in play to make such an argument. Did Michigan lose spots when they barely beat Ball State or OSU when they barely beat Illinois? A ND fan could probably tell you the exact occasion(s) but I believe ND dropped in the polls one week after winning that weekend.
  18. Cincy is favored by 3 at home. I'll take Baltimore (+3).
  19. I'm surprised the Ravens are a 3 point dog. The game is in Cincy so they're basically saying it's a toss up. But hey, I don't make the lines.
  20. Shall we skip the Thursday game for this week's against the spread or pick that game and pick the rest later?
  21. FWIW - I realize he probably got it from somewhere else - but they're reporting on SportsCenter that the Cubs offered 3/44.
  22. What site do you use? I've been wanting to try it out (i.e. just put a little money in and when it's gone, I'm done) and go for just a few games but don't know what to use.
  23. They should have a Big Ten-ACC challenge in football... then the Big Ten would show them who's boss. Let's see....we'll even leave poor Duke out of it: OSU vs. Wake Forest.....OSU UM vs. Ga. Tech.....UM Wisc vs. Va Tech....Wisc PSU vs. BC.......toss up Purdue vs Maryland........Maryland Minnesota vs. Clemson......Clemson Indiana vs. Miami......Miami Iowa vs. FSU.....toss up NU vs. Virgina....no idea MSU vs. NC State.....who cares? Illinois vs. UNC.....again.... I guess I don't know enough about the crappy ACC teams, but if you stack them up by final standings, it looks like the Big 10 is dominant at the top, and then it gets more even lower down The Wisc-VT game would probably be a tossup.
