QUOTE (HickoryHuskers @ Oct 14, 2012 -> 02:56 AM) Not being able to get half a yard in three plays is a joke, and pointing things out about the refs is for losers. No excuse for them not to review the 2nd down play.

2012 ALCS: Tigers vs Yankees
QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 14, 2012 -> 01:52 AM) Yankees get screwed by the umps. Cano clearly safe at first that would have scored one and the Yanks would have had the bases loaded with 2 outs still. I am so sick of terrible umping/reffing etc. in sports lately. Also, that really needs to be reviewable. No reason why we should have to live with umps getting that type of call wrong. Well said all around

@MikePereira We have looked at ND/STA last play from every angle & feel that it is a TD. Progress was not ruled & runner was not down. Ball broke plain. @MikePereira The fact that the whistle may or may not have been blown is irrelevant. The play is reviewed and when the whistle blew has no bearing. @MikePereira People are saying progress is not reviewable. It is in relation to a first down or the goal line. @MikePereira The hit on Golson was not helmet to helmet. It was upper arm to helmet, which to me is not a foul.

With WVU and Geno losing, watch the media push for Te'o for Heisman now. He probably wasn't even one of the 3 best defensive players on the field today (Nix, Tuitt, Chase Thomas).

Ed Hochuli's son doesn't deserve that last name.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 13, 2012 -> 11:09 PM) That is clearly a touchdown. LOFL at that not being overturned. Refs at all levels are an absolute joke. The 4th quarter and overtime was as much of a joke as you'll see in college football.

He's clearly in on the 4th down play.

It sure looked like Taylor was in on 2nd and goal

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 13, 2012 -> 11:55 PM) That was awful but didnt end up mattering much. If you want to take that two yards literally, it ended up costing them first and goal on the 1. Credit to ND though, they've made every play they've had to on 3rd downs the last quarter and OT.

QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 13, 2012 -> 10:40 PM) Shoulder to helmet is a personal foul? Shaw was livid. At least ND got to now go to their Criminal Formation. Seems like replacement refs are doing this game after that spotting of the ball earlier in the 4th quarter.

Why can no one catch the ball vs Notre Dame this year? They have the best dropped ball defense I've ever seen.

how would YOU fix the sox attendance woes?
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 13, 2012 -> 06:04 PM) Serious question here. $100+m payroll with prices where they are now, or $75 million with cheaper parking and top end tickets? Higher payroll!!

2012 ALDS Yankees vs Orioles
Orioles insane decision not to hold on Teixeira might have cost them this game.

2012 ALDS Athletics vs Tigers
Tigers going to advance. Their pitching staff is pretty awesome right now. Hey, at least greg is happy.

Norris just handing the Tigers runs with his lazy defense.

2012 NLDS Reds vs Giants
Dusty managing a terrible game. He used Xavier Paul to ph there and he had to face a LHP. In his career, Paul has a .355 OPS vs LHP.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 07:40 PM) Someone tweeted today that Votto hasnt hit a homerun in 4 months. That is insane Yep, no strength in his legs ever since the injury.

Bye Reds. That's what you get for playing Rolen over Todd Frazier.

2012 ALDS Athletics vs Tigers
Overlooked part of that game is Smith is out by 20 feet at home more than likey if Garcia fielded that ball cleanly.

2012 ALDS Athletics vs Tigers
QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 11, 2012 -> 04:42 PM) Um, what? He was out by 10 feet, regardless of what Cabrera was doing. BTW, if he would have blocked the base without the ball, it's obstruction. By the time Drew got to Cabrera and the base, Cabrera had the ball, so there's nothing there. The throw beat him by 10 feet, but if you watch closely, the ball started to come out of Cabrera's glove. In order to get possession of it again, he lifted his glove and Drew would have probably gotten his hand to the base before getting tagged if not for Cabrera literally blocking the entire front of the base.

It's hard to say you wouldn't root for the Bulls if they had certain players on the team after most of us grew up rooting for them when they had Dennis Rodman on them.

2012 ALDS Athletics vs Tigers
It was dumb for Drew to try to get to third with no outs, but he would have been safe if not for the stupid rule that you can block the base before you even catch the baseball.

2012 NLDS Nationals vs Cardinals
QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 07:09 PM) I think the Strasburg Situation officially has mindf***ed the Nationals now. Good job Rizzo. Good job Boras. Yep, especially with their pitching choking so far, it's really going to make this a huge issue again. There was a report earlier today from a Nats player about how upset they are/were with the decision.

Peavy hires Berry as agent
QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 10, 2012 -> 06:25 PM) Jeff Weaver sez sup. To who, his brother? The biggest thing with Peavy is if the insane workload this year will have a negative impact on his arm next year.
