  1. wiz maybe coming back to chicago? barker and his contract for wiz would be tremendous http://www.dailyherald.com/story/?id=357387
  2. where'd you see this?
  3. those fat hoes were so annoying and it's not a surprise that sox fans are hanging out with a guy who used to play for the sox and all they can think about is the cubs
  4. i like how dick was whining about the safety of the refs as they were casually walking off the court with no fans anywhere near them
  5. dick vitale is soooo annoying
  6. haha tyrus is such a piece of trash
  7. except the bulls collapsing again actually helps that organization
  8. are we even a top 3 team anymore? where the [expletive] is the effort? the fire that was there earlier in the season is completely gone. they're just going through the motions right now. and kane is just flat out bad right now. he's doing the same thing he did last season
  9. really need a win though
  10. man, this team is so boring right now
  11. simmons would lovvvvve that
  12. While they've had a good offseason, they still have question marks in the bottom of their rotation who doesn't?
  13. who cares who is better now? At this point last year the Pens were struggling to make it to the 8th spot and the Ducks were not even in playoff contention. Yet the Pens won the Stanley Cup and the Ducks were the 2nd best team in the WC last year in the playoffs. Hawks fans should be happy about their success so far this year, but discounting teams at this point of the season is dangerous. who is discounting teams? during the regular season, you talk about who is the best. right now i don't think there's any way you can say the pens are as good as the hawks.
  14. Hawks: +50 Devils: +21 Pens: +19 Devils are pre-Kovalchuk and the Pens are starting to become notorious for coming on strong at the end of the season and certainly have the credentials to say they are elite. Not saying the goal differentials aren't telling, just giving plausible excuses why those teams are at an equal level despite a huge gap in goal differential. that's predicting that they might end up better. i'm talking aobut who is better right now, and it's the hawks. and the pens "credentials" don't mean anything when talking about what team is better. i dont think the pens are even a top 5 team, actually. i'd put the sharks, caps, hawks, devils, and canucks ahead of them, and you could make an argument for buffalo and LA being ahead of them also
  15. http://sports.espn.go.com/mlb/news/story?id=4888155 Seattle is really having an amazing offseason
  16. Hawks: +50 Devils: +21 Pens: +19
  17. i cant believe he's still only 26. it seems like he's like 30
  18. Looks like the Devils just got him. Great move for them. http://sports.espn.go.com/nhl/news/story?id=4888109&campaign=rss&source=NHLHeadlines Maybe, maybe not. But with the rumors of him leaving the NHL for the KHL in the offseason (I doubt it, but who knows) to give up two of your best prospects plus two high draft picks for an obviously rental, is an awfully high price to pay. Not to mention this still only makes the Devils the third best team in the East behind Pittsburgh and Washington. Good move for the Devils, but an awfully expensive move. i think the devils are definitely better than the pens now, and are prob right there with the hawks for the 3rd best team in the nhl. this all changes on a week to week basis though. these are all elite teams.
  19. YES :yahoo: :yahoo: :yahoo: I'm sorta scared we gave up way too much, but we needed a scoring threat like this. And he's only 26. Just gotta lock him up long term. will kovalchuk want to play long term in the trap?
  20. wait... wouldn't getting rid of hinrich's contract for allen's expiring be like, really awesome?
  21. of the players are smart and know that winning more games this season is worse in the long run nah just kidding, they suck
  22. with 9 of those on the road obvously they haven't been playing as well over that stretch, but this was the toughest part of the schedule, and an 8 game road trip always takes a toll.
  23. by the way, i gotta wonder how much of this has to do with effort and just the mental aspect in general. it seems like this team got complacent around the time of that minnesota game. tonight was a perfect example. the effort was great in the 3rd period and we absolutely dominated them. but where was it in the 1st 2 periods? there was no sense of urgency, no fire. it looked like they were just going through the motions. i think Q needs to rip into this team. the carolina loss was kinda "eh" because it was the last game of a brutal road trip, but tonight was disgusting. they did not come to play in the first 2 periods at all, and that's been happening too often recently.
  24. once again this team plays down to the competition. back to back regulation losses against carolina and st. louis is unacceptable.
  25. holy hell that was spectacular
