  1. Speaking of that, a kid at third today has that after he got nailed by a grounder.
  2. This would be a sweet time to ground into a DP Jim.
  3. I think he's going to continue to look terrible to drive the "why do we have back to back LH hitters and Edmonds in front of Soto" point home How about he singles, but then get picked off after falling down after making the turn at 1B? That might allow Fukudome to score so I don't think thats in the cards I get it, in the Cards!
  4. If they mated, the baby would look like this: http://img301.imageshack.us/img301/5646/carloszambranowz5.jpg That is hot. Way to lay off that pitch Font, now knock these guys in!
  5. I still want Fukudome to lead off and bat Soto second.
  6. Hey, it's better to lead off with a double than do it with 2 outs! Didn't we have a pointless argument about this or a topic like it a week or two ago? So it's about time to rehash it again! Gallagher is not a good looking hitter.

  8. But a very fast 4-3, he almost beat that one out!
  9. I agree if the superstar PG can hit open jump shots. A SSPG is more like a stock and a SSPF is more like a bond to me, the PF can get you 17-21/8-11 but the PG could be the missing piece that makes it all work or shoot too much and screw up the system. The Bulls don't have a guy that can create his own shots, other than Gordon, though his size hampers him often times. Rose can create his own and can create shots for his teammates, especially slashers like Deng, Noah, Tyrus. Rose has the best court vision I may have ever seen. I don't think there's physically anything Beasley CAN'T do on the court. But he won't make his teammates better. He does when he rebounds their missed shots and puts them in the basket! Is he really just 6'7"? Creating is good if you have shooters to kick out to. If not, they pack it in and force the shots to fall. He doesn't keep them from missing those shots in the first place though. And his put backs makes the team and his stats better. And I refuse to believe Beasley is 6'7". I think he's 6'9", but probably only w/ shoes. Creating a shot doesn't just mean kicking out for a jumper. It also means getting in the paint and getting easy baskets for your inside players, or drawing the defense leaving the offensive boards open. Joey Dorsey averaged nearly 10 ppg at Memphis this year, with absolutely 0 offensive talent. Tyson Chandler had a great year, with slightly more offensive ability than Dorsey. When the game turns half court, you need a PG that can shoot. This is why the good point guards make their teammates better like Paul and Nash because they can shoot as well. I haven't seen Rose enough to see him shoot but if he can hit the open J, he'll be fine. Magic had a goofy set shot but he could hit it if left open. Kidd....e-gads his shot is nasty.
  10. Keep ahead in the count Mr. Gallagher and good things will come.

  12. Nothing says ESPN like two drunk rambling idiots calling a game. Tdicag? Cedeno is playing and everyone is crying about Edmonds batting 6th? This might just be his last gasp and Lou is giving him a decent shot.
