Buehrle>Wood

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 10:14 PM) Hah, he's playing with one hand and hes dominating. Hes also stated numerous times that he's staying for 4 years. He is dominating, nowhere have I ever said anything different. But as of right now, he is not the best player in the country nor freshman. As for him staying, wow. I've heard, but you honestly believe that? Heck, I could be wrong and hem ight even stay, but at this point in time there is no reason to believe he will, not even his own word.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 10:10 PM) Who gives a damn if he's a freshman? That was exactly my point, actually.

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 09:56 PM) Ok, Florida won the National Championship last year and has their whole team back. Very true, but they were also maybe the least deserving NT winner ever. Not to mention they have been a huge disapointment so far this season. Like Denny Green, I'm not ready to crown them. QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 09:56 PM) Ohio State has the best recruiting class in the past decade added to one of the best backcourts in the nation. In that class is the best big man to come along out of high school in probably 30 years. That's great, but can they play defense? As for Oden, he's a freshmen, great. However, there are still better players out there then him, even atleast one freshman. Unfortunatly 'being a freshman' doesn't win you extra ball games. In fact it gives you nothing when he's only going to stay one year anyway. These two teams are good, no doubt. I just don't see either as the number one or two this year. And so far, neither has shown why they should be.

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 09:50 PM) You're joking right? No, please go on and defend these teams.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 09:25 PM) Brackets pending it certainly wouldn't shock me if this the national championship. It would surprise me. When either of these beat a team of note(each other would not count in this case, of course), get back to me.

QUOTE(TheOcho @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 08:30 PM) A 3.90 ERA is damn good for a 5th starter ... in the American League ... for as cheap as he is ... and with that ERA he would have been the best pitcher on the staff in '06. Except for the fact that you are taking a ten game sample.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 08:14 PM) Garland has had one good season, how is that elite? I said he wasn't...

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 08:06 PM) I hate that. Because it's true? If it weren't for a horrible first half last year, Garland is considered one of the elite pitchers out there. Even so, he has WAY more value than Brandon. You're kidding yourself if you think otherwise.

"In addition, the Sox sent minor league outfielder David Paisano to Texas for minor league pitcher Jacob Rasner." Who is that?

QUOTE(Chet Lemon @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 08:03 PM) see Garland for 2005 You're saying McCarthy will be as good as that? HA! Brandon will likely never reach that level, let alone next year.

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 08:00 PM) why was Garland more valuable than McCarthy Because he's one 33 more games the past two years?

QUOTE(SnB @ Dec 23, 2006 -> 07:44 PM) mccarthy has shown that he will be good in the majors, they haven't. He has?

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Dec 21, 2006 -> 07:53 PM) I believe a few years ago Iowa State wanted to set up a home and home with Duke, but, no dice, Duke wouldn't come to Ames. Both Kansas and Illinois have tried the same thing within the past year. Again, no dice. I actually believe both went as far as offering a neutral-home game(ie Chicago for Illinois) while playing Duke's end at Cameron.

Heard a similar question on the radio the other day, thought it be fun to discuss. Baseball divides the city in half every year. It takes football to reunite it. As for basketball, well, we had Jordan. Also lets throw some other cities into the question: New York- Baseball LA- Basketball Houston- ??? Detroit- Hockey? St. Louis- Baseball Boston- Baseball

Terrero does not belong on a major league roster either.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Dec 18, 2006 -> 04:20 AM) Has anyone had any problems with the catalog of games available for the Wii? I really havent heard anything at all about the downloadable games. Bomberman '93, Gunstar Heroes and Ice Hockey all work fine for me. Same with all the GCN games.

QUOTE(zenryan @ Dec 17, 2006 -> 08:08 PM) lol@ the 2005 team being the best of all time. Can someone please provide a legit argument on why not? There is no definite number one, probably the best way to do it group into a collection of 5 or 6 teams. The 05 team definitly belong there.

TobyTalk.com It's odd to see one of these deals actually happen, but **** yeah!

KW said it would happen yesterday, but we're still waiting. Joel Pineiro, eh? I don't see the point, he provides us nothing.

I'll pick my arguments, but no, he isn't. When your own commishioner does not like you, and atleast 4 fellow coaches in your conference have shown their displeasure for you, then you know you are not respected. At all.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Dec 15, 2006 -> 01:27 AM) Did the White Sox have the best record in the AL from wire to wire? (remember, the Yankees didn't have to deal with divisions) Yep.

Downtown Texas Hold 'em.

QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Dec 14, 2006 -> 11:44 PM) The 2005 Sox deserved to be mentioned with that group, but the greatest of all time? Come on. Why not? Because they did not have such a large ESPN profile? I mean, what more did they have to do? Was being only the second wire-to-wire 1st place team while holding the mark for best ever postseason run(With the '98 Yanks) not good enough for you?

I'll probably be asking for a banning from the 19th though the 21st.

Sleepy, can you please tell DePaul to make up their mind on wether they want to be good or not? Thanks.
