  1. Boozer's matador defense down the stretch here is sad.

    I wasn't necessarily emotional when watching FNL finale, but when it was over, it definitely made me sad that we'll never see another episode. I already can't wait for 3 years down the road when Becky is in a movie with straight hair and I'm going to be like "that girl is so hot, she was on FNL."

    Can't get the spoiler tab to work, but there's some more evidence out there that Zooey might be the mother.
  4. QUOTE (knightni @ Feb 10, 2011 -> 02:01 AM) O-VER-TIME! Lville fans are livid about the technical to end the first half.

    QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 9, 2011 -> 05:34 AM) Wasn't the best Tosh but it was still solid. Yeah, the web redemption was awful. Next week's should be good though.

    The last 3 minutes of Tosh.O are amazing!
  7. QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 07:24 PM) What caused his injury is his natural mechanics. When Peavy throws, after the release of the pitch his arm swings back upward instead of allowing inertia to carry it across his chest beneath him. (see the Mitch Williams analysis on the Sox webpage...)This results in his lat muscle taking most of the deceleration impact which is very dangerous and asking for trouble. IMO, If Jake wants to recover and excel, he's gonna have to alter that follow-though and from what I know about Jake, he's not gonna want to do that. The best thing for Jake and the team is to work that into his mechanics NOW. That is the work Cooper was doing with him last year and he just didn't want to stay with it because he was ineffective out there. Nice analysis, but that's the thing...just as important as Peavy's velocity is the torque on his slider. I don't even want to think about his first few starts last year where he was just rolling that thing towards the plate.
  8. It's so frustrating to hear that some of the bad habits he picked up at the end of 2009 might have caused his slow start in 2010 and the injury he ended up suffering.
  9. QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 06:21 PM) So what is Iowa State missing for 2012-2013? A bank robber at SF? It's pretty embarassing, in all honesty.

    Thanks 99. I just started watching HIMYM this year, and have DVR'd so many old episodes that I feel I watch 5 shows of it a night. One observation is that Robin has gotten significantly less attractive as time has gone on. As my wife says when watching it "motherhood has not been kind to her".

    QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Feb 8, 2011 -> 05:04 PM) So after a run of pretty good episodes I thought HIMYM was pretty bad last night. It might be because I think the Zoey storyline is awful and pointless but I guess we will see where they go with it. She clearly is not the mother and I fail to see how Ted having yet another failed major relationship adds anything to the show. How do we know she's not the mom?
  12. Nice to hear Watson's a good guy. Heard a rumor tonight that Tubby Smith will be coaching in the ACC next year, with NC State the likely spot. He'd love to go to GT, but they won't be able to afford him.
  13. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 10:54 PM) Rodney Watson. Assistant for SIU forever then went to Southern Indiana and has been the head coach there for a couple years now. He's been absolutely dominant at USI but he had Jamar Smith last year and a pretty damn talented team for a D2 school. No clue what the talent looks like this year but these obviously aren't all players that he recruited in, so it's hard to get a good read obviously. To be honest, I just don't know enough about him to make an informed opinion.. That being said, Brian and I have talked about this and the one thing we both agree on is that we want SIU to actually hold a national coaching search and not just automatically stay in the SIU family like they've done for years now. I was under the impression that the USI coach was dirtier than hell. Hopefully that's not true.
  14. QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 11:10 PM) Hopefully I can say the same about Lowery. It's looking more and more likely that he will indeed be fired but I wont believe it until I see it. I've heard he's out, but I'm sure you have better sources than I do.
  15. QUOTE (zenryan @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 04:47 AM) I would guess that 90% of the posters on this thread is unhappy with how the basketball season is going for their team. I'm thrilled with this season, as it was the nail in the coffin for Hewitt. A .500 conference record, and you never know if they bring him back.

    Shameless might be my favorite show on TV right now.
  17. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Feb 6, 2011 -> 11:48 PM) BTW fathom I think you will like two of the recent suggestions I've seen from fans in the event Weber is fired: Jeff Capel or Craig Robinson. Robinson I can at least see the possibility of him doing really well at Illinois because him and Howard would probably do extremely well recruiting Chicago but I'm not sold on his coaching whatsoever. If Capel is hired I would riot. Robinson would do an amazing job at U of I. One thing to keep in mind for Illini fans is that Howard is likely gone for a head coaching job after this season.
  18. QUOTE (DBAHO @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 01:38 AM) Whenever I think Superbowl HT Show, that's the 1 image that's always gonna be stuck in my mind. Over Janet Jackson's nipple?
  19. QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Feb 7, 2011 -> 02:16 AM) Can Fergie pee herself to improve the show? Our own Hawk LOVES Fergie, and thinks she looks good in anything she wears.
  20. When's Fergie mic was out at the beginning, it was the best she's ever sounded!
  21. Best commercial so far, IMO, was the careerbuilder.com one with the monkeys.
  22. when people act like they are too cool to care about a struggling team and respond to a thread by saying "oh, I didn't even know they had a game today".
  23. QUOTE (Jerksticks @ Feb 6, 2011 -> 12:27 AM) Ricketts is completely handcuffed by the horrible contracts and cub fans are agitated that he isn't pumping money into this Titanic of a baseball roster. He's getting the label of being a cheap-ass but there's really nothing he can do but wait it out. With the potential revenue of the cubs year in and out, Pujols is a very legit target for Ricketts. If cub fans really think Ricketts isn't going to try to win with the cubs they're delusional. He's a cub fan, but he's just laying low during this necessary purge. I expect Ricketts to make huge moves once he is able to... as his livelihood depends on putting butts in those seats. Pujols would be perfect and it scares the crap outa me that he could actually do that. We'd become completely meaningless if Pujols signed there. It is very scary the idea of Pujols going to the Cubs, but I still think this is just a negotiation ploy.
