QUOTE (kapzk @ Apr 6, 2011 -> 01:35 AM) how does the velocity on Gavin's fastball look? 90-91

Get it going again offense!

Jeez, stop throwing fastballs down the plate. Royals are just crushing Gavin right now, as AJP refuses to call for a curveball.

Gavin throwing meatballs to the plate. I hate watcing him and Alexei during the first month of the year.

Ironic that Payne and Richmond are in the news on the same day. Probably two of the worst attitudes I've seen in following high school basketball.

Ah Yankees! Have a season, Mark Teixeira

QUOTE (GoodAsGould @ Apr 5, 2011 -> 11:52 PM) I wonder if the Bulls take a flyer on him at end of first round, he wont contribute next season but you don't get that kind of talent late in the draft that often. Unless some SG prospect that makes for a solid bench guy falls to them I see no reason not to draft Richmond and just send him to the D-League for a season. What exactly is his talent? Not going to play SG or SF in the NBA with no jump shot and a terrible attitude.

QUOTE (hitlesswonder @ Apr 5, 2011 -> 03:27 AM) It is crazy that teams that lost in the championship game (tOSU...Illinois) would have destroyed the two finalists this year. And it's not like 08 was that long ago. What the hell happened to college basketball? All the top recruits go to Kentucky?

Fitting end to a terrible basketball season. Hopefully a lot of the top guys continue to return to school so that the talent level rises.

Worst championship game ever?

....getting worse

If possible, it's getting worse.

It's fun when you get to root for Mariano Rivera.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Apr 5, 2011 -> 02:40 AM) It is truly incredible how little talent there is on the floor for a national championship game. I would say there's 3 talented players on the court in Kemba, Mack, and Lamb. The rest of these guys are garbage.

Dreadful start to this game

Hate to break it to his biggest supporter on this site, but G. Parra is TERRIBLE! How is R. Roberts starting in the majors?

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Apr 4, 2011 -> 07:24 PM) Joe Saunders is awful. Selling low doesn't even describe how bad the Haren trade was. Randy Wells looks terrible as well. This Diamondbacks lineup is an absolute joke.

Lots of doubt now about whether or not Missouri's Board of Trustees will approve Haith after all the outrage.

Mazel tov Zen!

I thought this WM was bad with the crowd being about as quiet as you can imagine.

Sorry Marlon, guess the PEDs didn't work there!

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Apr 3, 2011 -> 10:05 PM) UConn beat Duke who was a No. 1 seed in the final 4 that year and that UConn team was the best team in the country but had some injuries during the season IIRC which is the only reason they weren't a No. 1 seed. That UCONN team played better in the NCAA Tournament than any team this century, in my opinion. Teams had absolutely no shot against them, as their worst starter was probably the best player in the tourney (R. Anderson). Not bad to go with Okafor, Ben Gordon, Boone, Villanueva, Armstrong, T. Brown, etc.

Pedro Alvarez would probably strike out 9 out of 10 times facing Marmol.

Nathan looked terrible, as he had no command of his offspeed pitches.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Apr 3, 2011 -> 07:15 PM) Humber's first 2 pitches were both hittable and up. Boers and Bernstein couldn't believe how hittable Humber was in ST, and thought he'd have no prayer in real games.
