Right now, him, Dwayne Wade, Kirilenko, and Omare Stoudamire are playing amazing basketball. They are the emerging stars in the NBA and all seem to have pretty good attitudes. But watching Lebron yesterday put his team on his back yet again was impressive. He's freaking everything he was advertised and more. I'm impressed with the fact he plays defense and just how good of a passer he is. He gets points, assists, boards, and steals.

Hope Everyone Has an Awesome Thanksgiving.

This is obviously a sign that Minny thinks Mauer is going to be able to be their starting catcher, which is a huge upgrade over anyone they were looking at signing. Mauer, Redmond looks good to me.

I should add, I expect at least two touchdowns directly from a defensive play and a special teams play, meaning the offense will have to play really good and get 16 points (which is gonna be impressive). Call it a hunch

I think this is the game the Bears score 30 plus

The achilles is what the Sox need to be careful about. If I recall, I remember reading that they thought it would take an offseason and he would heal. It was pretty much a fluke injury and things were taken care of but it wasn't able to heal fully during the season. He should be 100% at the start of the year which will be great. A healthy Nomar is an All Star, a different maker, and a draw. SIGN HIM.

Guys lets all give Anthrax a chance. He was pm'd a few days back and I've reminded him since he was new that personal attacks aren't tolerated. Remember, were all Sox fans WB Addy.

Glad to hear your alright whitesoxin and thoughts go out to everyone involved.

I'm with ya Tony...I may just have to stop being a cheapass and pick up a Hinrich jersey. He's just awesome.

I'd love getting Dotel and Hudson but I don't see how the Sox could do it.

See, I don't get it. People always say Curry sucks, but look at his numbers. They are as good as most centers in the east, if not better and he's still young. He still makes a lot of mistakes, but he's been made a scapegoat for some reason. I think he should of been starting tonight, I don't want to see Antonio Davis out their. Davis is slow and doesn't have it anymore. He's a good role player but not a starter.

He was playing injured during the early portion of the season. I'm not sure if he ever got back to 100%, but I'm positive the injury had a negative effect on him at least part of the year. His speed was insane though.

It was the minutes I was referring to. Chandler did a nice job boxing out and you'd see him get the boards. I base things on that more in basketball and one thing Chandler is, is a good rebounder.

I should add the two plays of the tourney were tonight. Early in the game Pierre Pierce made an awesome play on a drive and finished it with a reverse and then later in the game Felton drove, went behind his back and somehow went up and made this awesome layup.

Kind of like how Ronald Curry was an insane qb at North Carolina. Now he's doing a good job in Oakland and could be a possible signing this offseason by the Bears. But its so fun watching those raw athletes that can just create amazing plays where you just shake your head wondering how the hell they can do it.

Umm, Curry was one of the big reasons they won and he was out their until pretty much the end. Once it came down to foul time Skiles put all shooters in, which was a good choice. Also Chandler did a nice job on the glass. I still think their was no reason to bench Curry, he played good the game before as well. Had like 21 points tonight.

Ya, UNC couldn't miss. I was just swearing up a storm. Everytime Iowa would create some stops UNC's defense would force turnovers and then bang down 3's. Felton was so quick and did a great job distributing. You guys are gonna have a hell of a year. Too bad you only play Wake once this year. I also got to say something else, I usually don't pay much attention to the announcers, but Bilas and company really made listening to the games enjoyable.

Well Iowa should still move into the top 25 after a good week. Lousiville and Texas looked good today as well which should help them. I think the game would of been a lot closer had Hansen and Brunner not got into some early foul trouble. I was a little disturbed by the officiating, blowing a lot of ticky fouls the entire tourney. I hope they aren't calling games like this the entire season cause they aren't letting the teams decide it. But damn did UNC look good, they looked explosive and quick. McCants is just a stud. Him and Felton played fantastic. UNC also did a great job defending the Hawkeyes. They showed me enough reasons why they are one of the best 3 teams in the country (Wake and Kansas being the others).

Flipping Beautiful. Now if only Iowa could of won too.

Taht tells you that the Sox never offered up Konerko or Garland cause the Pirates would of been stupid to not accept it. Although I'm sure the SOx were asking for a lot of cash back too.

Actually, he's getting paid decent money so the Sox must like something in him. 100,000 guaranteed and he would make a little over 500K if he made the roster. Thats more then Munoz/Diaz/Baj would be making if they made the roster. Has solid career numbers. I remember the Pads liked him a few years back (if memory serves me right) but I don't remember what or how this guy threw.

Good god, I didn't realize I had near that many posts. Thanks guys for making this a fun place to post

Well KW should be fired if he trades Jon Garland for Nick Johson. If he gets Zach Day or Tony Armas Jr. along with then it would be alright.

Jon Garland.

That is not that good of a deal for the Pirates, imo. Great deal by Billy Beane though.
