We could really just use any warm bodies. Also, what's with the god damn offensive foul calls against Taj?

Growing Trend in Higher Education
Hopefully this is isolated to state schools. State funding never likes literature, but it is still popular among students. English programs have just started slowing in growth for the first time in a long time in higher ed., and some of that can be explained by the grown of Film and Media Studies growing influence (my field )

2013 AL Central Catch All thread
Hard for me to take the Royals seriously with the lack of production from Hosmer/Perez/Moustakas. I'm also not a believer in that rotation. It isn't out of the realm of possibility that they succeed, but I would need to see more to put my money on them.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ May 2, 2013 -> 02:26 PM) Looks to me like he danced around the topic while posting everyone else's opinion that Cutler should have played. http://sports.espn.go.com/chicago/nfl/colu...&id=6052280 And thanks for making me re-live that s***. Lord, I've never seen a player get such unfair treatment from the media. Jay Cutler is one of the toughest players I've ever seen play for the Bears. Seriously.

Peavy Out
We didn't push any pitchers last year. We had a 6 man rotation half the time. We never skipped a fifth starter. We handle those guys with kid gloves.

Reed hits AJ
I was indifferent. I loved AJ, he never wronged me. He brought us a title and a pretty good ballclub in general while he was here.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 25, 2013 -> 05:00 PM) I don't know a ton about Gunter, other than he was an NDFA, and a side-armer. But man, his K numbers were huge at Bristol last year... made a brief appearance for B-Ham... and was racking up the K's this year too. All with decent control. I wonder what the story there is, seems like an odd release candidate. I seem to remember another NDFA from Samford that threw sidearm...

The Ghetto is Public Policy
We can't get smart policy enacted until we move away from political discourse that blames poor people for poorness. Since it is fathomable that a poor person can become rich, the discourse pretty much stops there. Racism is over, poverty would be over if those assholes worked harder.

David Terrell was a bad pick, but still better than Tim Tebow. Cedric Benson wasn't a bad player. f*** Thomas Jones.

I wish I could watch this game. NHL Gamecenter acting like "NBC Sports Network" is a national station. National to people paying triple digits for cable, maybe

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 09:47 PM) Dunn has more homers this April than last. Following the 4/23 offday, he's been a changed man. Good to see some (presumably) coaching going on. Too bad McEwing's team defense session today didn't have the same positive effects.

haha someone called it. Still good to see Dunn picking it up.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Apr 30, 2013 -> 09:44 PM) It's scary. I agree statistically things could be pretty bad after the KC series this weekend. The Rangers announcers were just ripping the way he throws. I despise his motion the way he slings his arm. He was embarrassingly bad tonight. Given his control problems, he probably made his motion that way to cut out excess movement. Makes him easier to pick up, unfortunately.
