  1. so now the only time theriot is leading off is against RHP??!?!?!? is really really that inept?
  2. kinda hoping they just tank if the alternative is a 2005 or 2009 type season. that will (hopefully) get rid of lou and hendry. i'm also worried that if we're around .500 at the deadline that hendry will trade away good prospects for somebody to try to save his job. now that our farm system is performing, it would be typical to have hendry put a dent in that as a parting gift before his ass is canned
  3. Is it true that Lou just said he's going to hit Byrd leadoff and Theriot 2nd against LHP? If that's true, it might be the dumbest thing Lou has ever done. Does he not realize that LHP are the only pitchers Theriot actually does hit?
  4. also he's fat and slow
  5. the more games i watch this postseason, the more sadness i feel about our crowd. the fans pretty much negated the home ice advantage, and maybe even gave nashville an advantage with the tense and dead silent atmosphere they created.
  6. I kind of expect the Predators not knowing what hits them on Sunday. I think the Predator will see how outclass, talent wise, they truly are in this series. I expect that Hawks will win the series and am not debating that they are a more talented team. I think you may be underselling Nashville some though. They are not in a hockey media bed so you don't hear a lot about some of their players, but that does not mean that they lucked into a 100 point season. Nashville's defense core is very comparable to the best in the league, which helps offset the fact they are lacking in strong scoring forwards. the predators had a goal differential of zero this season
  7. that second period of the detroit/phoenix game was out of control. when teams are playing like that, playoff hockey is better than playoff anything else.
  8. jay-z needs to just go away
  9. this phoenix/detroit crowd is insannnne
  10. what was with the crowd tonight? they were pathetic. i've watched most of the playoff games so far and our crowd was clearly the worst, and not even close to the other crowds. i'm watching the preds/wings and the place is jumping. it soundedl ike a november game at the united center tonight
  11. by the way, the hawks still win in 6. hope those rednecks enjoy this win we handed them.
  12. their game plan really got to us? what was their game plan? to get dominated for 2 periods, score a lucky goal, and then have troy brouwer give them the winning one? the blackhawks were clearly the more skilled team on the ice. the predators won because the blakchawks allowed them to. they allowed their typical soft goal and then fell apart for the next several minutes like they always do. i don't understand why they always collapse right after giving up one of those soft goals. they always look like a completely different team when they get gut punched by one of the clowns in goal
  13. wait, im confused. you mean the issues we had in the regular season might actually come into play in the postseason? i thought once the playoffs start it doesnt matter?
  14. http://a.espncdn.com/photo/2010/0416/mlb_a_clemmens_65.jpg http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=5098407
  15. somebody should remind those clowns that they had a goal differential of ZERO this season... to the blackhawks +62
  16. this organization is so fuckin predictable. now that he's dominating as a starter, of course they'll eff with him
  17. 0 SOG for ovechkin tonight
  18. i just wanna put my face in it
  19. it would be so typical of the cubs to interrupt his development right when he's starting to dominate as a starter
  20. he still looks like a pitcher
  21. Even with the awful year last year, Soriano's 2009 was better than 2 of the past 3 years for Wells. Soriano has posted OPS' of .726, .876 and .897 the past three years. Wells has posted OPS' of .711, .840 and .706. Wells has had two really good seasons (.909 OPS in 2003 and .899 OPS in 2006) that have really helped his career numbers. Besides those two years, he's been a .760-.800 OPS guy. I'd rather take the chance that Soriano – the significantly better hitter throughout his career – rebounds from one bad year than that Wells rebounds from 2 out of 3 bad years. Went to today's game and watched Soriano really butcher plays out in LF. He may rebound offensively, but his defense is just brutal. i really need to get to a game so i can confirm this defense of his
  22. i see the sharks are up to their usual playoff antics
  23. i think noah wants to go to the playoffs
