  1. SSR, who are you on the scout board?
  2. Hmmmmm, that's odd, why would somebody edit their post 3 days after posting it. Wait a minute...didn't that used to say Chris Petersen!!! ETA: Hmmmmm, and edited the same day this story was published: http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/football/blog/dr_saturday/post/Headlinin-8217-Penn-State-strikes-out-on-Coac;_ylt=ArOBAJEPwuSOzDbEtvIR4.kyWud_?urn=ncaaf-wp11955 i'm also curious as to what he believes his role to be
  3. i love it when announcers say that teams "don't need a 3", bite my ass, if they want to win they do you animal.
  4. Plaid shirt and horned-rim-glasses-wearing black man goes 0-13. Tall, skinny fake black hipster friend wears backpack, pretends to enjoy beatles, has one chapter of novel written.
  5. it's never the great goalies that get us, it's always the quicks of the world.
  6. is it just me or does quick always stand on his head against us?
  7. http://www.firstrowsports.tv/watch/99945/1/watch-chicago-blackhawks-vs-los-angeles-kings.html
  8. Reigning MVP, reigning MVP.
  9. yeah, building that chernobyl of a program back to respectability is going to be tougher than beckman's job at illinois.
  10. ugh, i'm already sick of this honeybadger nonsense.
  11. I feel like I'm at an Occupy rally. There are a dozen teams that had a higher profit than the Cubs, including the Dodgers, Pirates, and Padres. If you had 700 mil to invest where would you put it? They would have made more than 23 mil if they invested it in T-Bills. I didn't know the Cubs were a charity. i asked you a question
  12. The Cubs did not "clear" 250 mil. They did have 258 mil in revenues. But 157 mil in player expenses. Add other expenses and they "cleared" 23 mil pre-tax. The Rickets likely can spend, but the numbers you use say the opposite. if they're making 23 million over total operating expenses, that makes them one of the most financially successful franchises in MLB. if they can pump 20 million of that surplus revenue back into payroll, that puts it at 177 mil. what's payroll for 2012 at right now? the fact that he chose the wrong word there doesn't negate his actual point.
  13. I agree with this. I don't see him keeping his job. if he gets into the sweet 16 he keeps his job, but i seriously doubt MT is going to put up with this [expletive] around any longer.
  14. yeah, when did stalberg learn to handle a stick?
  15. Yep, that's what I've heard. Man I hope Meyers doesn't leave after this year or we really didn't get much out of that great '10 class. meyers by himself was a lot to get out of that class. i don't know what happened with crandall, if true i wish him well but to tell you the truth i see a lot more potential in myke henry, who can actually shoot. it's possible that with bertrand's improved play, that he's getting crandall's minutes, and to tell you the truth, i want o see where it goes. in the right hands, crandall can be a star, it's just too bad he's not like his brother--who over the course of one offseason, turned himself into a great shooter.
  16. hossa's having a great season, hopefully he stays healthy. I saw SJ play last week here against the Blues and Havlat was damn near invisible. I really hate getting into questioning a guy's will or desire, because what do I know about the guy. But he just seems like he doesn't give it 100% very often. hossa is a top-tier player, a premium talent. havlat is at least a notch or two below that level.
  17. what "is what it is" even mean?
  18. you have to be a brewer fan to buy that load of crap
  19. hossa's having a great season, hopefully he stays healthy.
  20. man, football was so fun every single week not too long ago. i think the universe just wanted to get our hopes up to [expletive] us right in the ass again
  21. there cannot be more proof that the fix is in with the refs getting the seahawks into the playoffs is their main directive
  22. we really don't want to win this game anyways
