The only problem with "New York" is that you'd need a surgical suit to even touch her without getting a disease.

Go "under." Northwestern should make it a game.

The new coach may have to re-evaluate James' scholarship.

The reason so many players want to go to Texas is because there's no income tax there.

Interesting how Dye hasn't really gotten any offers.

I miss the fun Kalapse that's posting in this thread. PS, I still like Serena Williams.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Dec 30, 2009 -> 12:46 AM) What a crap game to attend. 1. It was cold out. Come to Chicago and say that 50 degrees is cold, ya softie. 2. It was boring as f***. It wasn't boring on TV, but I did see Miami's QB went to the Michael Vick school of passing touch.

Can anyone tell me how to protect myself against Sea Bears?

Bills getting Charlie Weis?

Prince Fielder would be great.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 09:44 AM) If the Sox can wait until mid-June with Garcia in the rotation, then that likely buys them an extra year pre-arbitration with anyone they start off in the minors. If they are even considering starting Hudson in long relief, why not have him be the #5 guy to start the year? Have another guy be the bullpen "scrub."

Or, they can shovel Garcia off on a desperate team before Spring Training is over.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 04:49 AM) Sometimes I feel it's justice that my family can survive perfectly on about $110K income a year, and yet these athletes can not make it on even $2M a year. I wish that my family could "survive" on 110k a year.

justBLAZE, I'm going to make this its own thread so you get more views.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 02:22 AM) http://mlbsecrets.com/baseball/salary/Kreuter/Chad/kreutch01 What's most interesting about this case is that here's your average MLB "journeyman" catcher who played 16+ seasons and made over $8 million dollars in his career, yet even that apparently wasn't enough. It would be interesting to see where things went awry, as it would be instructive to former and especially future players to understand more about investments and finding the right accountants/agents to manage their finances...or perhaps this was just a case of getting caught up in the real estate market like the rest of America around 2000-2008? What's even more interesting is how this will affect his job at USC.

McCourt and the Dodgers should sue Park for failure to compete.

Caldwell is trying to out-think himself. "What Would Dungy Do?" He should have left the starters in. They were at home, inside. The likelihood of injury is lower than on the road and outside in bad weather.

Were you watching wide screen or full screen format? Sometimes in wide screen, you get that "shift" effect.

It seems to me that this is a fight between the "what-ifs" and the "actually happeneds." Yes, if Konerko wasn't there, Alexei's D may have been worse than it was. Yes, if Dye, Rios and Jenks hadn't struggled in August and September, the Sox may have been in it. Yes, if Quentin and Peavy were healthy the whole season, then the Sox may have made the playoffs again. Unfortunately, those things never happened and the Sox ended up in 3rd place last season. Speculation is fun, but honestly arguing over it isn't very productive. People should save their anger for things that do happen, not things that didn't that they think should happen.
