  1. hahahaha this is so [expletive] pathetic
  2. they look terrified. what a soft ass team
  3. rebound after rebound after rebound. niemi is garbage
  4. apparently all 3 people who voted for howard were in orlando, and 2 of them actually worked for the magic.
  5. http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=611585497126994340# good times
  6. it's just a different variation of meathead.
  7. sorry if you're upset with me using one of your cool words you think is original. how about we make deal where i don't use "meatball", and you don't use "awesome". that's my word and i'm afraid of it catching on. I think meatball was a Sulley creation, but I could be wrong. meatball has been around forever. i remember kids saying that in middle school http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=meatball

  9. why? he gets paid and assload and hasn't come close to living up to it. I don't fault him for signing that contract. But when you do, you better understand the expectations that come with it. I don't want to hear you complain about the boos when you turn in a sub-.800 OPS, injury or not. Comes with the territory. Oh, and don't act like the boos were only there when he was OPSing under .800 last season. They were there in 2007 and 2008 when he was having 2 of the best seasons of his career, and when he goes into a slump this year they'll be there again. People just lovvvvve to hate Soriano, even when he's producing.
  10. why? he gets paid and assload and hasn't come close to living up to it. I don't fault him for signing that contract. But when you do, you better understand the expectations that come with it. I don't want to hear you complain about the boos when you turn in a sub-.800 OPS, injury or not. Comes with the territory. why boo him for not meeting unreasonable expectations? what was he supposed to do? "thanks for the 136 mil offer jim, but i don't think i could possible be good enough to make that contract good. i'd prefer you make me a lower offer" Soriano career- .279/.327/.511 Soriano w/ Cubs- .276/.330/.512 And those Cubs numbers are brought down heavily by a season in which he was hurt.... an injury that is looking more and more likely to have caused his poor performance. Soriano has been very good in his time with the Cubs. He's done as much as you could have reasonably expected/hoped for when he signed the contrct. Booing him because he took a big contract is pretty stupid to me. Yeah it "comes with the territory" and it's hard to feel bad about a guy getting booed when he's making that much money, but what does that have to do with it? Just because you have a right to boo doesn't make it any less meatballish. You have the right to heckle players too, but that doesn't mean you aren't obnoxious when you do it.
  11. bill simmons is trying to get the names of the 7 voters who didn't vote for lebron for mvp. 2 voted him THIRD. also, somebody gave stephen jackson a 5th place vote.
  12. You're as funny as Jay Leno. so you find him hilarious then
  13. stop chanting mvp you morons
  14. do you guys think deron is better than chris paul?
  15. who is worse, him or mark jackson? probably mark jackson, but i hate reggie miller more
  16. i always thought he seemed like a douchebag who thought he was way better than he is
  17. really lovin the new patience from castro
  18. it's the nhl playoffs. every team is prepared.
  19. Bob's managed, and I'm sure he likes seeing guys who go 100% all the time. Maybe he sees that in Marlon. but thats not what he said
  20. the announcers are idiots and obviously haven't been watching the hawks for the last 3-4 months. their issues have nothing to do with preparation or effort.
  21. go away, reggie miller
  22. they won't get swept. i still think it goes at least 6
  23. if they don't get a goalie, next season will be pointless too
  24. maybe i should put a golf club on the indian head
  25. sucks for the people who went to this game
