Buehrle>Wood

Playing watch dogs after I got it for xmas. I love the hell out of this game

His loss of velocity (moreso at certain times than others) is his biggest problem.

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Jan 5, 2015 -> 10:19 AM) Solid signing and thankfully only a 1 yr deal so if it doesn't work, no major loss. Fills a need now the key is that we utilize him appropriately. 4 million dollar option next year. 1 million dollar buyout, but he's only making 3 this year.

Probably an overpay so hopefully we can afford it. I don't think Danks' or Viciedo's roster spots are gone yet so I don't see any time for him in the OF, so I think his greatest value will be insurance at third and second. Looks like he's much better hitting righty, which may not actually be a bad thing.

I'll wait for the English cast tomorrow night

Dakich is ruining the refs today. Love it.

That was the best onside kick of alltime...and they didn't come up with it.

Two teams that wouldn'tbe here if the BCS was still in place.

Their bball team went 32-3 and won a game in the tournament last year when they beat VCU

Making the tournament isn't some accomplishment. It's what a bottom of the barrel Illini team should do. It doesn't take a lot of talent to do that. And if we don't make it this year, there's going to be plenty of teams with less talented rosters that grab at larges.

I'm all for firing him if we don't make the tournament. I doubt we will at this point.

Groce just an awful awful job today vs an inferior team.

QUOTE (Boogua @ Dec 30, 2014 -> 03:28 PM) I've only been watching since the start of the second half, but I swear 90% of the shots I've seen Michigan take have been 3s I feel. That sounds like every Michigan game ever

Has to pain Brian to see Tate play well

QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Dec 30, 2014 -> 01:32 PM) Notre Dame is pretty much in the same boat. I guess MSU has been ranked this season even though they aren't now, but outside of them ND's list of wins is a who's who of the worst teams in DI. Also, ND lost to Providence, who is a lot worse than the teams that have beaten OSU. ND's schedule has been weak yeah but they have 3 wins better than OSU's best according to Mr. Pomeroy.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 30, 2014 -> 01:11 PM) Then half the teams in the top 25 wouldn't be ranked. It's the first game of conference play. Not true. Most top 25 teams have beaten someone with a pulse. I'm guessing OSU is close to worst in terms of good wins.

They shouldn't be ranked because they haven't come close to beating anyone good. Can't justify a number next to their name

Seth Rollins is absolutely anazing. This crowd is horrendous.

Bryan is so over

QUOTE (Soxfest @ Dec 29, 2014 -> 08:35 PM) You can tell WWE is running a RAW house show also tonight for holidays................trying to fill time letting Ryback and Cesaro talk in long segments with half of guys not there tonight. And it's good, and working. Raw has been good. Big Show on commentary is surprisingly amazing. It actually made me like him for once.

Lesnar will be back. Same as last time.

That was awesome segment with Ryback. I know he's not the greatest on the mic but that's how midcarders should be treated. He clearly connected with the crowd and made us care. Oh yeah and screw cm punk.

It was probably time for him to get out of NY, but I think Ryan is a top flight coach. The rosters he was given were just pretty much close to the worst in the league every year he was there. Even his first two years those rosters weren't great. It's amazing he won as much as he did.

For whenever we are due a new stadium, the Sox need to commit to either the suburbs or downtown. I'd prefer downtown, personally. I think I was the one who originally brought up the post office site a few months back. Admittedly I was ignorant of the history a few months back, but if the price is ever right, I'd love to see it.

Illini should be up by about 50 right now
