  1. I thought for sure they would end up with #1.
  2. 7 3/4? I wish my head was that small because at least you can find that size.. I usually have to get mine custom ordered at 8 1/4 or 3/8 depending on the hat. Although I haven't wore a hat in like 3 years because it's too much $$$.
  3. What throne? It's more like a loveseat since he's sharing it with Clemens.
  4. Derrick Rose shot like 70% in college (not extremely bad, but he's like a career 81% in the NBA so big improvement there). Duncan? Although he been up and down his whole career. Camby was bad then had a stretch of improvement then went bad. Kevin Garnett was like Rose where he went from low 70s to consistently 80+ (as high as 86%). Tristan Thompson? Shot 55/60% first 2 years, switched hands then shot 69/64% the past 2 years.
  5. Is that what you tell the lady bots? That's it. Shut down NSBB.
  6. I would like you guys to shoot FTs with the hands those guys have. It's not easy with giant, fat hands. It's also why none of those guys can shoot outside of 5 ft from the basket. If anything, the person that everyone should be on is LeBron when it comes to FT %. There's absolutely no reason for him to not shoot 80%.
  7. At least that he went the other way instead of trying to pull it.
  8. Yep. I'm shocked how often that is called strike for Soler, but it's a ball to everyone else.
  9. Bryant is the new Bonds. Don't even give him a pitch to swing.
  10. I was thinking more like prime Helton a couple days ago, but then I looked at Helton's # and holy crap... I forgot just how good his #s were the first 6-8 years. the difference between 2000 coors and 2015 wrigley is enormous Oh I know, but Helton's BB/K rate in that time... =P~
  11. I was thinking more like prime Helton a couple days ago, but then I looked at Helton's # and holy crap... I forgot just how good his #s were the first 6-8 years.
  12. Rick Wilkins, Mark Prior, Jim Hickman, and Dick Ellsworth
  13. hahahaha this is amazing they should get some custom fog machines and [expletive] in the new clubhouse I wonder who is the best dancer.
  14. Maybe this is swaying my perception, as he was pretty cool and a regular guy when I've met him. My college roommate was in the same class as him at Valpo HS so I got to meet him a couple times back in 2003/2004. He was pretty cool to me, but my roommate have said that he's somewhat a dick.
  15. Yeah that's not going to happen. The only person with a slim chance is Harper if he stays in the NL his whole career. Hank Aaron and Willie Mays went to 20 ASG for the NL. Spahn holds the AL record IIRC with 20 as well. Put it this way... Castro will even have a hard time of catching Ozzie Smith for a SS. Ozzie had 15 ASG appearances. Basically Castro has to make the ASG every year till he's 36 or 37 just to tie Ozzie.
  16. of course they're not going to K. Did you see the bromance tonight?
  17. meatballs were right I know it's meatbally, but I actually did have the thought earlier today, "[expletive], I wonder if Bryant staying down for two weeks DID cost the Cubs a win or two?" Doesn't matter because they're not losing another game this year.
  18. Just wondering ... am I the only one with a hard on?
  19. We're going to see a lot of that in the next 6-8 years.
  20. Does Joe West call a ball for the Cubs?
  21. This. He looked safe to me, but I knew they weren't going to overturn it. I mean since they added the replay, what's the % of calls being overturned? It gotta be pretty damn low. They don't want to upset the umps.
  22. i wonder whats on his ipod, maybe a lil biggy and wu tang mixed with some pac and run dmc... i imagine he is a hip hop head. Nope. It's Justin Bieber and One Direction.
