I'm starting to hate this tournament. Why did I make a bracket again? OSU better get their s*** together

Epic choke in progress for OSU/Aaron Craft

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 24, 2013 -> 01:12 PM) Did Rose go to Dr Andrews? Just asking because everyone who goes to see that guy mysteriously becomes a super human and heals so quick.... No, but he did do some rehab at his clinic and has generally used that clinic to consult on his rehab regimen.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Mar 24, 2013 -> 09:46 AM) No s***. Had I known Rose would have pulled this I would have advocated amnestying Boozer this year and would have traded Deng. This implies knowledge that trading Deng was doable -- we very well may not have gotten any offers for him, at least ones worth doing. It seems that GarPax were at least considering this idea. At this point, it seems logical to just stick with this squad as-is until Deng's contract runs out, at which point you'll have Rose-Noah-Taj-Butler-Teague left and a fair amount of salary space. Amnestying Boozer before next season, for instance, doesn't even get you under the salary cap.

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Mar 23, 2013 -> 10:57 PM) Just checked @fangraphs: Jake Peavy averaged 82.8 mph with his slider last season. Touched 87 tonight. #WhiteSox -- Dan Hayes Fastball topped at 93mph. If he actually improved from last year, that would be the biggest shock. It seems that most of us would agree his season stats last year are about as good as he can be anymore. If his arms is going to start feeling even better, let's ride the wave!

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Mar 24, 2013 -> 12:03 AM) The worst team in baseball has Phil Humber & Lucas Harrell in their rotation. Not sure what that means... It means the experts are wrong!

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Mar 23, 2013 -> 10:32 PM) --- I did like this stat though: If you dropped the Iowa State 3-point shooters into the Big Ten season stats, they'd rank first, second, fourth, sixth and 13th in 3-point percentage. That's nice but...

Just thought I'd mention that Phil Humber is having an excellent spring and seems to have cinched a spot in the HOU rotation. Good for him, great guy and I hope he makes us regret losing him.

This is just what happens when you never play any competition.

Marquette was really annoying me so I was rooting for Butler. Some terrible possessions down the stretch, none worse than that last play. That horrid over the back call ends up being the difference in the end, though!

QUOTE (chw42 @ Mar 23, 2013 -> 10:05 PM) Gonzaga is who I thought they were. Indeed. This tourney has been a ton of fun so far.

QUOTE (knightni @ Mar 23, 2013 -> 04:23 PM) I can't believe that no one else wants to join... I joined, looks like the keeper league may not happen. I can always manage 2 anyways.

SLU off to a tough start against the best 12 seed there has been in years

Yowza. What would "Wussification of America" thread say about this?

QUOTE (bulokis @ Mar 23, 2013 -> 03:29 PM) http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap100000015...-contract-terms Tom zbikowski to bears Wonder if he will get a chance to start. Tommy almost transferred to my high school back in the day until the IHSA started sniffing around. We still went to state title game before he graduated, always wonder how much better we would have been with him around.

We played 7 preseason games -- that's how much Derrick needs, I'd say

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Mar 23, 2013 -> 02:29 PM) ok ladies, bring it down a notch. Dont want to be handing out suspensions in the middle of the tournament. No more namecalling you just called them ladies

QUOTE (justBLAZE @ Mar 22, 2013 -> 06:58 PM) How much do you develop playing only Sundays? How much do you develop in your 4th year in AAA?

Wouldn't it be better if we just put the top 2 ranked teams together and had them play?

Next victim: Miami Feels so sweet after every national channel I watch was picking CU>Illini as their upset pick.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 22, 2013 -> 05:54 PM) Sigh of relief. If they get hot they are good but s*** go inside once in awhile. this

ICE Brandon Paul!

Just win this. Anything else will be gravy.

Big free throws. Thatta boy Brandon. And a HUGE board by Brandon!!!

Luckily Abrams missed so bad that we had a chance to rebound
