Illinois has bigger fish to fry right now with the scandal they just went through. They need to figure out their administration troubles first. Hard to find a new head coach before you find a new President. Also, RG has done a great job with the non-revenue sports as someone said above. Gymnastics, wrestling, volleyball, golf, softball, soccer have all gotten better under RG's watch. Just saying.

QUOTE (Jenks Heat @ Dec 11, 2009 -> 10:36 AM) I would think the pissed part is leaving your team while the season is still going on and playing for an undeated season in the Sugar Bowl. That and Mardy Gilyard claims that he spoke to Coach Kelly after the Pitt game and he said he wasn't going anywhere. I understand not wanting to tip your hand, but you can be more honest than that. "I will look into any opportunity that comes my way, that doesn't mean I'll take it, but I owe it to myself to at least listen." Good lesson in life.

The Tiger Woods Marriage Saga Thread
Where is the outrage for these women? Now, I certainly don't condone what Tiger did (allegedly or not), but there are 11 women who have loose morals that slept with a married man. Why isn't there "outrage" regarding these women? People are basically reviling Tiger for cheating on his wife (which they should), but turning these women into victims. "He told me he loved me." Whatever. I don't care about this story anymore. He screwed up. He has to deal with it in his own family.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Dec 10, 2009 -> 02:26 PM) I can't remember him ever blowing by two guys from the defensive zone like that, getting around the corner and attacking the net. True, but as the replay showed...he cut off Gaborik with the knee. That was sweet and will be a goal on the Stanley Cup winning video montage!

Tigers, Cubs, Royals, Giants Join Sox As Teams Interested in Pods
QUOTE (greg775 @ Dec 10, 2009 -> 02:10 PM) He'll probably go to the Royals. Then we'll get Coco Crisp so the Sox and Royals will continue to share each others' players with less than stellar results. It's amazing how the Tigers now are deciding to go cheap. Our division will be the cheapskate division. I would think our only competition in the future on paper should come from Minnie since we probably will at least be spending the most of all teams in our division and you would think our great starting rotation should keep us competitive for years to come. Hopefully that new ballpark will end the Minnie mystique (in our division; not in playoffs of course where they suck). To be fair, all the teams are in cities that are currently feeling the effects of this "economic downturn." Some, like Detroit and Cleveland have been feeling the effect for years. Kansas City is just a small market and Minny is only going to be boosted by the new stadium. Money wise, the White Sox should be destroying all the other teams.

QUOTE (soxfaninpa @ Dec 10, 2009 -> 01:02 PM) IMO they can have him then. He was great for us last year, and would fill the hole at the top of the order but I just can't see giving a multiyear deal to one half of "the glass brothers". I'd be all for a one year 1.75 deal with incentives that could push it to 3mil, or maybe a 1 year with a vesting option for the second year, but that doesn't sound like what he is looking for and I'm not KW. No vesting option! This team should be able to move forward with one of their prospects by 2011. I do think they've moved on. Love to see Prancer on the North Side, though. His run-ins with the bricks and ivy should be stellar!

I'm also a little disappointed that Eddie O didn't notice the 'hawks had Brouwer and Big Buf on the same PP trying to get some big bodies in front of the net. Or if they did, didn't say anything.

QUOTE (chimpy2121 @ Dec 9, 2009 -> 09:10 PM) Lundqvist is ridiculous tonight. He's a career 3-0-1 against the Hawks. Just got their number. If the 'hawks lose, you tip your hat and say, "You were damn good, tonight."

QUOTE (Thad Bosley @ Dec 8, 2009 -> 04:42 PM) And if he hits like he did in 2005, 2007, 2008, and 2009, which is far more likely, then we are stuck with a below-average third baseman. Ugh. Alright, I've beat this topic like it owed me money. I'll leave it alone for now. I'm going to try and channel the optimism from some of the others here and just hope for the best with this guy. Keeping my fingers crossed! How do you know that? I would think stabilization and the fact that he isn't playing for a team with no hope to win might rejuvenate him. Or not. We won't know anything until the season plays out.
