  1. oh god please let this be decided by an akers field goal attempt as time expires
  2. yeah andy reid....go yell at him. i'm sure he isn't aware he screwed up
  3. lol wtf is rackers doing today
  4. Yea. Jones in CF, Pie in LF, Huff at 1B, and Scott DHing. Their outfield defense will be amazing though
  5. That doesn't make sense. You always needs prospects in your system for depth and for other trades later on. How can you say there is "no way" that this stuff wouldn't have happened if it weren't related to Peavy? The reasons are pretty obvious. DeRosa and Marquis were traded to free up payroll for Bradley and Pie was traded because he was out of options. Could this stuff be related to Peavy? Sure, but I don't see how you are acting like there is no way this stuff would have happened anyways. I really woudln't bet on Peavy. I think Hendry is about done. Teams who are expected to compete and win their division don't just trade their starters for prospects. They don't make a bunch of moves to have 30 pitchers on their team. With this trade we have no room for like 4 pitchers on our team. Guys like Guzman, Hart, Wuertz... Peavy is coming. Again, there were other reasons for those trades besides just getting prospects. DeRosa had to be traded to free up payroll. Pie HAD to be traded because he was out of options and you're not going to get major league proven talent for him. Olson was the best we were going to get, regardless of the fact that he's a prospect. Sure this could all be related to Peavy, but you need to stop acting like it's a sure thing and that there is no way Hendry would have done it without plans of him. The reasons are pretty obvious. I just explained them to you.
  6. Everybody on orioleshangout is pumped up about the trade and raving about Pie. Kinda funny

  8. by the way, huet has allowed one or fewer goals in 8 of his last 10 starts.
  9. eagles by at least 2 touchdowns
  10. this san jose/detroit game is ridiculous
  11. Insane that they got 3 points out of last night and tonight. They would have been lucky to get 1
  12. He might even be upside down, my God... he "only" has 9 saves but every one has been incredible. i think you were looking at lagace's line. huet has 26 saves right now
  13. figures the goal huet finally gives up is a soft one
  14. between Huet and the Blues missing wide open nets, they should have like 3 or 4 goals tonight
  15. Huet has been ridiculous so far tonight
  16. Yea after a big hit on Kane (clean but big) went right after the guy... was pretty good but he was at a size disadvantage... they'll show it during intermission. Is that his first fight of the year?
  17.

  18. i don't get the "gotcha"
  19. you're wrong twice in like one sentence. well done cubswin gave a constructive answer that explains to me something I've missed. You, on the other hand, are just being a dick. Nothing unusual, I guess. i was just joking around, relax. if anybody here is "being a dick", it's the person that is basically making fun of us for following hockey so much and calling a midseason game "meaningless"
  20. you're wrong twice in like one sentence. well done
  21. don't even complain about the slashing call. it may have been bad luck that his stick broke that easily, but you can't not call that. I never knew that when your stick got broken in half that was a penalty. That happened all the time when we played street hockey and we considered it legal. Learn something new every day. when a guy slashes your stick and it breaks, that's a penalty. they call that every time.
  22. don't even complain about the slashing call. it may have been bad luck that his stick broke that easily, but you can't not call that.
  23. especially when they didn't deserve that either way, unless they completely melt down in the second half or they completely catch fire and detroit melts down, they've pretty much got the 4 seed on lock
