  1. hey at least he plays better defense than dunn... or something
  2. my friend is friends with geo and she said all he does is sit on the couch and watch tv and his face is like melting and stuff cuz all he does is smoke pot
  3. why wouldn't we be? it's weed. big deal. it's no worse than a player drinking
  4. vitale informing us that you cant win with 3 pg. thanks, dick and stfu stuart scott.
  5. By default, that would have to mean that some guys perform better. but not that the better peformance is due to them being a special kind of player or something like that. i believe a player can become worse if he's in his head too much or can't handle the pressure. i'm not even necessarily talking about a specific player. it could just be a team in a really bad slump If some pitchers get worse in clutch situations, and some batters don't, then those batters would by default have the appearance of clutch hitting, and it would show up in statistical analysis. you're really making this more complicated than it really is. all i'm saying is that pressure can negatively effect hitters at times. the fact that the cubs have been so atrocious with risp this season is partly luck, yeah. but you cant say that part of it isn't that they're pressing (or whatever you want to call it) it's kind of like the people who keep saying "the cubs just got cold at the wrong time the past 2 seasons" and stuff like that, when it's clear that they flat out choked. they couldn't handle the moment. it was obvious. they crumbled under the pressure.
  6. wow that sounds like the most obnoxious tattoo ever
  7. kind of a dick move there
  8. apparently, he's the bulls' GM. i had no idea. What happened to Pax? How did I miss this?
  9. lol at the girl screaming "whhyyy" when they announced the darko trade

  11. stern is creeping me out
  12. The problem isnt so much that it could have been avoided, its that it could be rectified sooner than later, but Hendry is being an idiot about it. The Indians are asking a ton for DeRosa right now because it's so early
  13. 7 HR and 22 RBI in 131 at bats is crappy? Its not spectacular but it's better than most other Cubs. you're going by home runs and rbi? he had like a .750 OPS when i posted that. so yeah, for a corner outfielder/1b, that's crappy
  14. what's better than one tyrus? 3 tyruses
  15. perhaps they'd be interested in hinrich
  16. i bet it's johnson
  17. when he was like high stepping across the court and pumping his fists To be fair (I hate Hansbrough more than anybody on this board), that was a game winner in the ACC tournament. no i know. he just looked so goofy
  18. when he was like high stepping across the court and pumping his fists
  19. i think it's clear that it's in their heads right now and it's affecting them, so yeah So there's such thing as a clutch hitter? i dunno, but i think you're lying to yourself if you're saying there aren't guys who don't handle pressure as well as other players. i don't know if guys can actually get better in clutch situations, but i def think they can get worse.
  20. http://blogs.mercurynews.com/kawakami/2009/06/25/mt-2-stoudemire-and-warriors-in-contract-talks-trade-pending/
  21. there were rumors on the realgm boards that stoudemire was headed to GS, so that would make sense
  22. they must have accidentally left the computer on auto draft
  23. they're the timberwolves
