  1. My guess is he heard it on one of the sports radio shows, but according to the show they went to Bonds about it and he said he had no idea his name was on the list.
  2. Well they are first going to try and give the money to Kobe. And if Quentin hits the market, I'd gladly find a way to swap Qrich for Crawford. Richardson is the better of the two players, at least with the Bulls needs.
  3. This was definately one of Hinrich's worse offensive games but he is so gusty that even on bad shooting nights he brings a lot to the cllub. JC played really good and Curry dominated. One guy I really liked yesterday was Dupree. I think with a little coaching this guy could turn into a really explosive 6th man. The guy has Erob's athletic ability and just loves to slash to the basket. If he improves his shot, then it will make it easier to drive in. I think in a year or two he will be starting for some team in the NBA. Oh ya, I have to think that Chandler is going to get dealt with someone like Williams or Davis (Someone who makes money) for maybe even an Antwan Jamison. This assumes that the Bulls are in a position to take Ekafor. I Think they will go with Ekafor and use him as the defensive big man to play alongside Curry. Ekafor is fantastic defensively and will be a great all around player and he already has more offensive moves and game then Tyson. Plus the Bulls can use Tyson to get that outside scorer they need, which isn't really available in the draft. Paxson seems to really like Ekafor...the question is will the Bulls hold the #1 pick.
  4. Question on this. My dad was telling me that when the police went into Bond's trainers house they found all these steroid schedules and it had listed on it the players that were taking them and such and said Bonds name was on the list and when confronted about it he denied it saying he had no clue why his name was on the list and that he told his trainer he didn't want any of the stuff when his trainer offered it. If this happened, how come its not getting more play?
  5. Oh ya for those that talk about Morse, I think he could be a big time sleeper prospect. To me he's ranked too high soley for being a sleeper prospect, but he's got good size and as he puts on more muscle should develop even more pop. I think he's like 6'6 or so and is pretty impressive defensively. I think he'll take longer to develop and he's definately got some work on his swing, but could be a project that works out. I still don't know why everyone is in love with Gonzalez. I realize he has a lot of tools, but he's also a major prospect and he's had two poor years in a row now. But you never know when a light is just going to come on and he's definately got the tools.
  6. I agree with you. King will probably be in Kanny this year and he really came on after struggling with the initial adjustment to wood bats. The kid crushed the ball in college and started to crush the ball late during the short season. I still can't figure out how the heck Tim Tisch got on the list. We originally had him in our top 50, but recently dropped him out because we decided Wyatt Allen and Casey Rogowski were more deserving in our opinions.
  7. Well he has speed going for him and he's a pretty good defensive outfielder.
  8. Another good board is www.nflfans.com/bearstalk Thats where I post as DABEARSDABOMB
  9. The Bulls will offer him at least the mid level exception, but I do think Denver would be a good fit for him and I"d look for his career to take off being able to play alongside a playmaker like Carmelo.
  10. Remember when they had Brand and Artest and people got all impatient so they ended up dealing them. Pissed me off when they got Rose and basically threw Artest in. The Bulls problem is they seem to expect things to happen over night and a bunch of 20-24 year olds isn't going to be able to win in the NBA, its just not going to happen. And dealing Mason Jr. was terribly stupid. Rick Brunson is freaking useless, absolutely useless.
  11. I dunno, emails can really blow up. Anyone notice how that one person who dealt with Martha Stewart and sent out a few emails talking about what a b**** she was. The emails were sent like two years ago and they showed up in the trial trying to bash her character. Remember, while email is great, when you send one, you have to be aware that it could be put out anywhere on the net so you almost never want to show anger or other things in emails. Its a different story if you know the person, etc.
  12. And he made a lot of people around him very wealthy. The oracle of Omaha is definately the sharpest investor out there. You have to give him credit, he earned everything, unlike the pompous prick Donald Trump. Only thing I give Donald Trump credit for was bringing himself back after he damn near bankrupted himself. He inherited all that money and I know if I had that play money to use, I could of invested and made some fortunes as well. One day I'll get to have some play money...I just got to work my ass off and get rich

    For me its because one day I plan on being very wealthy and no, I won't turn into a self serving, high and mighty bastard like some wealthy people. But I do think people have the right to turn themselves into millionaires if they work hard, etc, etc and I don't think the government should take their money and give it to others. In my econ class today we had a nice debate on the subject referring to the rich and the poor and the theories of how inequality may actually be good for development. Of cousre the people that supposedly save the most in the economy are the middle class because they are aspiring to be wealthy and economists theorize that saving means your investing in capital which helps an economy grow further, so having some inequality would be good. Of course like everything, this could be debated 10 fold and if there was one definate answer that we knew, the debate probably wouldn't be as sharp and we'd be focusing on other things. As far as the hard work stuff, I've witnesses and heard stories from my own family of people that grew up with absolute nothing and have turned themselves into people with something. My grandpa worked on a railroad assembly line, my other grandpa was a farmer and my dad lived in a rural farming community. People fight, they are resilent and they bust their ass and when the factories went out and they were faced with hard times, they found other ways and became successful. Of course thats a very small sample I'm personally looking at and politics definately deals in part with your own life experience.
  14. Thats me sarcastically referring to Marriotti's response
  15. Wow...he spent a long time to come up with that response.
  16. Ya, I'd of definately had Nanita higher and Morse quite a bit lower. Another thing is, I saw Tim Tisch on there and yet no Majewski. I know Tisch put up some good numbers, but Majewski has put up good numbers in AAA and has a stellar arm. It was also interesting to see Orionny so low. I'd probably have him ahead of Fabio, who I like a whole lot, but both are top 15 prospects, imo. They definately see big things from Miller and I'm shocked Stumm is that high, considering the huge questionmark known as his arm.
  17. For some reason I continue to watch. Then I turned to the democratic debates. Bulls were sucking so I figured I could at least educate myself on the democratic candidates. Hinrich is great, but this team has some definate concerns. Lakers-Kings game has been good though.
  18. Either way thats pretty weird.
  19. Chisoxfn replied to BrandoFan's topic in SLaM
    Maybe its just his ploy to try and get the Cubs out of the news. Afterall, they are about to resign Kerry Wood for like 11 mill a year for 5 years. All I know is if me and you happen to be right about Baker killing their pitchers, they could have a lot of guys tied up on the disabled list, kind of like the Dodgers have the past few years.
  20. Chisoxfn replied to BrandoFan's topic in SLaM
    Its going to be interesting when some of the states create laws for it and others don't. Still, I do agree it is a secondary issue to the economy but I see both sides of the argument. The one thing I ask is, if the bible wasn't around, how would people act about the sanctity of marriage, would we still think of it as something reserved for a man or a women (for those that do) or wouldn't you? I know its hard to say the bible is around, but if we are basing our beliefs on the bible, then isn't that something that should be out of the constitution? Who knows, I'm still pondering this issue.
  21. Interesting to see Mike Morse that high. I can say one thing, FS's top 50 is quite a bit different. Its getting pretty close to being done and right now, if I don't mind doing a little self promoting, its going to be badass
  22. I like those and I'll try to get them up tomorrow, pending me remembering. Alex can tell you all how much I suck at remembering to do things related to images.
  23. Isn't it obvious...I should be the voice of Soxtalk :lol Now quick, someone get me a high paying radio gig
  24. Like most of the players, I say let their play prove their worth. Hopefully Politte is healthy and has the gas and is a pretty valuable setup man for the club. He has good stuff and has been sucessful, so I say their is a decent shot. Like I say, him, Tagatsu and Koch step up with Marte and Wunsch being the same old then the Sox are going to have a fantastic bullpen, but the opposite could happen.

    Hey when I become a trillionaire, I'll make sure you can have the leading role in Terminator 4
