  1. Looked like he got up to 88 just a couple pitches ago. Way to leave the 2 runners on base.
  2. QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 03:27 PM) Ha, Lee was out in front of that changeup by a country mile. Country Mile? I love it. Nice rebound on Lee.
  3. QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 03:25 PM) Yay, Buehrle throwing batting practice already. This Cubs lineup is loaded with righties today. He doesn't have a prayer of having a quality start. You may be right.
  4. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jun 12, 2010 -> 10:42 AM) Some girls chase blackwood... some don't. This is hilarious.
  5. As a Big Ten fan, I'm happy about the possible expansion. As a midwesterner, I hate seeing a midwest conference breaking up. Who knows what'll happen on the east coast with possible conference relocations, but leaving 5 major conferences while 3 1/2 are in the east (counting half of the Big Ten) seems crazy. As far as Iowa State. They have pretty good women's athletics in baskeball and volleyball, haha. It is also true that they are good in academics. Unfortunately I don't see them being invited into the Big Ten unless the Big Ten needs a 16th team or something. Adding another Iowa team doesn't do much for the Big Ten Network, and since ISU hasn't been great in men's basketball and football also doesn't help the Cyclones' case.
  6. Dan Pasqua. I couldn't stand that guy and I was only like 7 years old at the time. He just looked funny.
  7. QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 10:03 PM) Vujacic should have got more time for the Lakers, he was doing some good things out there. definitely. Nate Robinson really stepped up in the 4th quarter for Boston.
  8. QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 10:00 PM) Boston hit three jump shots the entire 2nd half, and still won. Artest helped them out by going 1-10 or so. He could be the key factor in the series. If he's really on, LA is hard to beat.
  9. QUOTE (Palehosefan @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 08:22 PM) I think you can say he's the best shooter in NBA history. There's a few to pick from. Reggie Miller is up there considering he's the all time leader in 3 point shooting. I haven't watched this game much tonight but I see the Lakers have out shot the Celtics by 23 or so from the free throw line. What's up with that?
  10. QUOTE (robinventura23 @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 12:19 PM) The Royals are game behind us. So at least there is something to play for.... at least I got a laugh out loud on this board today.
  11. QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:49 AM) Agreed, he might never be a superstar, but he should be a productive player in the .285-18 home run range. Which would be a very nice offensive number coming from a 2nd baseman. It's certainly attainable for him. A bigger question on this team is.........Will Quentin ever regain or come close to his 2008 form?
  12. QUOTE (South Side Fireworks Man @ Jun 6, 2010 -> 11:09 AM) Too bad they didn't trade Beckham this offseason when his value was probably sky high. To me Beckham always seemed like a guy who would develop into a "nice little player but I never saw him as the potential superstar others did and never thought he should have been an "untouchable". I'm usually for trading prospects for proven stars. For some reason I wasn't like that with Beckham, whoops.
  13. QUOTE (Benchwarmerjim @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 11:58 PM) I think this year's 2 perfect games is a record for a year. But I dont know how many of you remember, but there was a rash of no hitters in the early 90's. I had to look it up on wiki and it confirmed it 7 no hit in 1990 and 1991, making 14 in 2 years Im just wondering why people are cheering against a perfect game? yeah it may be 3 this year 4 in a calendar year, but its still rare and we might got 50 years without another one Maybe because Buehrle got one and people want it to be as exclusive as possible? I'm not sure. I'll admit I didn't want to see one for a while because I wanted Buehrle to be the last one, but since it's happened, I want to see them. They're part of history.
  14. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 2, 2010 -> 10:32 PM) ...and then pull the trigger on your league because you've just slapped the face of every team or player affected by a blown call over the last 120 years or so. They went 120 years without instant replay and many consider having it for the better. Either way this is going to alter the future of the game, especially if they enchance replay.
  15. I'm sure this won't happen, and I don't know the process of how this needs to happen. But if Bud Selig had any balls, he'd reverse the call and give Galarraga a perfect game. The ump said he missed the call, everyone knows he pitched a perfect game. Be real and give it to him.
  16. QUOTE (BearSox @ May 31, 2010 -> 03:29 PM) I doubt any of them involved conspiracy, but if I had to pick one, it would have to be FDR and Pearl Harbor. I would agree with this.
  17. QUOTE (flavum @ May 31, 2010 -> 12:49 PM) 37 games until the break. I think they have to go 25-12 to be really in it. So it's either get hot now, or AJ could be gone in a couple weeks, and then the dominoes will probably start to fall on trades. That'll be hard to accomplish going 25-12. With the way we've been playing I can see us going 16-11 in June. Hopefully we play better and make it 18-9. That would make one great June.
