I noticed that. He criticised Dusty a lot this game, and for good reason, too.

I was just thinking, will this finally be the year for the Cubs? I mean the year where they actually blame themselves rather than some goat or a poor, pathetic fan.

Their catcher is Jose's brother.... I did not realize.

Congrats Dusty Baker, you truely are a moron.

Its pretty remarkable on how the Cubs find different ways to do this each year.

GO GIANTS!!!! Cubs will probable have to sweep the Braves to even be alive....Ouch.

Team success should not be part of the quaifications for ROY. Maby for the MVP award, but thats a thread for another day.

Jason Frasor is a good canidate last time i checked.

If you guys havent been there, you need to check out the Italian Village. By far the greatest restaurant in Chicago and I thinks it also one of Americas 10 most busiest(for a good reason). If you do decide to go there, GET THE SOUPS! Both soups are great but the noodle one is probaly the best thing that I have ever tasted, literally.

Priceless.

HOLY s***! I think we might actually beat a division 1 team, even if they are the equivalent to a D1AA team. 30-27, 1 minute to go. W. Mich ball.

Cant find the game on TV, Did the Illini lose yet?

Barry Bonds: Greatest player to play in any sport, simply put. Congrats

I always cheer for the Twins come October. If they win, it still means we got beat, but beat by the best.

This stuff is pricelss. Funniest site I have seen in a long time.

Why? Are you suggesting we should make a run at him? No thanks. It would kill our PR and the Chicago media giant would destroy us considering our problems like these in the past. :puke Although I would straight out release him if I had anything to do with the Rangers.

Derons possible heir?

Oh god, not this discussion again. Bruce has not even been able to prove himself and Illini fans are already calling him out. Its really quite sad. He missed out on 2 recruits, big frickin deal. We don't even know if we really know if we lost out on SL. He could of just chosen Duke to either 1) raise his stock for the NBA 2)thought he was doing us a favor by not choosing us 3) didn't want to risk his playing time. But that is besides the point. The fact is all coaches miss out on big-time recruits, which would include Coach K, Roy Williams, and yes, even Bill Self. I feel big-time players don't want to come here while other stars are here, only when they will be assured to run the show, but I mean that with whomever is running the side-lines. We had a top-100 prospect visit last weekend, he seemed happy. I hope he commits, but if he doesnt we'll move on.

Wrong Shawn King.....

They have BC 1 and done, 6th in the Big East.

To prove the point that Self cant coach, go watch the ND-ILL game from the 03 tourny. Oh God, you will laugh with tears at him. It was so pathetic. They absolutly owned us the whole game and BS never made 1 adjustment to our defense the whole time! Not 1!

Kansas' glory days are over with Self at the helm. Oh god, I cant even remember how many games he cost us. He is a TERRIBLE X's and O's coach. Of course, he can recruit but thats about it.
