  1. how is it a lucky win if they outplayed the other team? it was lucky for the sharks that it even went to ot.
  2. praying for a playoff spot? seriously? it would be almost impossible for them to blow the playoffs. and why are you waving goodbye to the thought of the hawks being a dangerous team in the playoffs? they just outplayed and beat the best team in the nhl for the second straight time. they also have 6 points in their last 4 games.
  3. why? the hawks just got at least a point against the sharks
  4. going into this game i would have taken a point without hesitation, but now an ot loss would be really really demoralizing.
  5. i'd be thrilled with a point at this point
  6. oh look brian campbell is skating backwards after the guy is already past him with the puck
  7. god huet is garbage. we need khabi in there oh and i predict the hawks lose this one by at least 2
  8. Colvin shouldn't be much of a surprise given his 1st round status based on his performance in tenn over the past 2 years it would be
  9. it's not based on just 2009
  10. Marquis is having a nightmarish spring. He gave up 12 runs today (11 earned) in 3.1 IP. This is after a combined 11 ER in his previous 2 starts. His spring ERA is 14.14 (22 ER) through 4 starts.
  11. More like 2 horrific seasons. 2005 wasn't horrific If it wasn't for Lee, it would have been. even if lee put up his normal numbers i still don't think it would have been horrific. bad, yes
  12. i think you are jake fox
  13. that's because he happened to have two good years when nobody else was that good. schilling had years where he was just as good as glavine, but had the misfortune of pitching when randy johnson and pedro were even better. and johan in 2004. if randy johnson and johan santana didn't combine for 3 of the best season of all time in a 4 year span, schilling would have 3 cy youngs
  14. More like 2 horrific seasons. 2005 wasn't horrific
  15. No, it's nothing like that. Nobody with any sense of logic would think so. If you got in a car accident because you were drunk, you have a problem. If you hurt yourself while drinking to the point of not being able to perform your job, you have problem. I don't know how you can criticize my logic when you're saying a person who happened to slip and fall while drinking automatically has a drinking problem. I'll ask you this again. Do you EVER drink? Isn't it true that you could easily slip and hurt your leg while drunk, just as you could do it while sober? Answer me those questions. Slipping and falling while intoxicated doesn't mean you have a drinking problem. It means you're unlucky. Saying otherwise is completely ridiculous and you know it.
  16. Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it doesn't make sense. I said he doesn't have a track record of sustained success worthy of a guaranteed job. Contract situations are the only reason he's nearly a lock. He has filled in admirably as a starter, but he's also pitched fairly unimpressively for stretches. Since hurting himself while drunk last year. His lack of top talent, the reason he's not a starting pitcher or a top notch reliever, suggests he's just another inconsistent arm. Overall performance is far more important than how those numbers were achieved. How many leage average pitchers aren't inconsistent? What does that even mean? Where does it come from? The fact that he was bad for like 8 innings when he was with the Cubs. Pushing aside a huge sample ize worth of numbers because "he's inconsistent" sounds a lot like you're tryong to find ways to talk him down.
  17. I've seen at least one person that said he wished they'd get rid of Gaudin for patton if "somebody picked up part of the tab on him". Meaning he'd be okay with even eating part of Gaudin's contract just to get rid of him. Either way, the debate is whether or not Gaudin helps this team more than Patton.
