  1. I just think Kenny doesn't know how to properly wipe his ass.
  2. I still think it looks like crap on his hands.
  3. What the hell is this supposed to even mean? What's with the Missouri hate, by the way? It was just a joke. I knew you guys would take it to the extreme. I think they were trying to determine if it was a joke or just another ignorant statement.
  4. Link Also, the article implies the Cubs do not expect Prior to be ready by spring training.
  5. Honestly, I think Carolina is the best team of the bunch, but they have a way of underperforming (see 2005). I'm more worried about them playing to their abilities than about either the Falcons or Saints. Well, right now the Saints have a two game lead on them and the Falcons one. The Saints are better than anyone has given them credit for. They have a dangerous offense, a QB that doesn't make a lot of mistakes, and a coach that helps them stay disciplined and mistake free. The defense is the question mark, but if they can stay close, their offense gives them a chance to win. I wouldn't sell them short by any means.
  6. I think the best the Panthers can hope for is the WC. They have a shot at that, but I think Atlanta and New Orleans are better at this point.
  7. "You've got to know when to hold 'em, know when to fold 'em."
  8. Just call me the "Shwamm" EDIT: This inevitably means my picks will be a mess next week. You're not the only one. Not a bad week for me against the spread. Stated that I wanted to pick a push of the (-3) line to Cincy over Carolina, and it was a push. Picked the Jets, Pats, Bucs, Raiders, Colts, Vikes, and Packers. If I count right, that makes me 7-4-1 for the week, by far my best. I'm 7-4-1 this week and it's not even my best week of the last 2. :wink: BTW, I'm almost rooting for a Colts/Bears Super Bowl because it might just result in Ball State being burned to the ground (about 60 percent here are Colts fans, about 25 percent Bears fans and the remaining 15 percent other). Giving up on the Panthers already?
  9. My guess is Daisuke will sign a contract like the one Hideki signed when he came over. He'll sign a three-year deal with a clause that says his team will make him a FA after the third year instead of the sixth.
  10. It's looking as if I made a bad call starting Leinart over Delhomme.
  11. I'm optimistic that not having Dusty in one ear and MacPhail in the other will lead to better decisions. I don't have any real concrete reasons to believe so, and it is more a hope than anything else.
  12. Redskins run a punt back for a TD. Redskins will take a 14-10 lead after the PAT.
  13. Washington misses a FG after an unsportsmanlike conduct call against Moss. Colts lead 10-7.
  14. The Cubs need one more bat. Replacing Aram with Arod doesn't accomplish that. Adding Arod to the trio of Aram and Lee does.
  15. Eagles lose. That's good news if the Cowboys can take care of business on Monday night! The Saints fans in the family are grinning over the Panther loss as well.
  16. Arkansas will get their shot at LSU the Friday after Thanksgiving. I do think they should be ranked higher though. At least they will get their chance to prove it.
  17. I think a lot will depend on how the Nats plan to rebuild. While Bowden may be the GM, I firmly believe Stan Katsen is calling the shots. I'd look to use some pitchers from the minors or a package built around Marshall.
  18. Well, I missed on McLarne, got Rothschild correct, and it appears Sinatro will be the bullpen coach according to this. So, if the Trammel rumor is correct, we have: Bench Coach: Alan Trammel Hitting Coach: ? Pitching Coach: Larry Rothschild Firstbase Coach: ? but believed to be Quade. Thirdbase Coach: Bullpen Coach: Matt Sinatro.
  19. Furthermore, I'm not convinced that Trammel couldn't currently play SS better than the guys we have on the team. :lol:
  20. He's also one of, if not THE best shortstop not in the HOF. This is true.
  21. For those interested, Rex will be on ESPNnews at 1:00 ET. They are taking questions for him in the fantasy chat session. Link.
  22. But hey. Luis does have a HOT, HOT, HOT, HOT, HOT sister. This is true. http://cdn.maximonline.com/girls/swim_2005/joanne_montanez-gm_l1.jpg
  23. That is interesting. Trammell...hmmm?
