QUOTE(hammerhead johnson @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 11:04 PM) Hey, would it be accurate to say that the AL has 7 of the 10 best teams in the majors this year? New York Boston Chicago Cleveland Minnesota Anaheim Oakland St. Louis Houston Atlanta Call me crazy, but that's how I see it. Put the Twins in the NL East or the NL West, and they're Division winners IMO. The Wild Card Race in the AL is going to be insane this year. You forgot Toronto who would also win the east or west in the nl imo.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 10:47 PM) Tigers fans called him Karlos Pena. Kinda like Korey Patterson. Uh oh, you have a rival for the clever nickname competition.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 10:14 PM) Excuse me, meant to say by Midseason. I'm still leaving this guy there Guess you don't have confidence in Tad.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 10:11 PM) He has lapses on routine plays, but he's a very good hitter and in general a solid player. I expect him to be our starting 2nd baseman by opening day.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 08:59 PM) I just think LSU is a tougher match-up. That's fair but you said LSU is just too good so it kind of came across like you were saying LSU is better then Memphis.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 06:15 PM) Twins are my pick to win it if we don't. Yeup.

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 06:19 PM) Twins will be lucky to finish third. They look terrible. I don't think they will play .500 ball. I don't want to sound like an ass or anything but you're just wrong here. There is no way the Twins finish under .500, it's not going to happen.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 08:17 PM) I don't see anyway UCLA beats LSU outside of both Farmer and Afflalo having good games. In other words, they can't shoot a combined 3/18, as they did against Memphis, and expect to be in the game. LSU is too good. Memphis is a better team then LSU imo. I agree that they're going to have to shoot better but don't expect LSU to put up a lot of points.

QUOTE(Milkman delivers @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 05:24 PM) Going by the pictures, Tavarez punches like a little pussy. He doesn't even know how to throw a punch judging from that picture. Pretty sad.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:24 PM) That said, this should be a very dangerous team next year. I'd say they are a pretty dangerous team this year considering they are in the final four.

QUOTE(winninguglyin83 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:23 PM) we got major issues with our pen major Good to see people are in panic mode already. Should be a fun year.

QUOTE(kman @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:19 PM) I'll stick with my opinion and you guys can stick to yours. Cool? That's fine I just want to hear why you have that opinion.

QUOTE(kman @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:14 PM) A lefty closer just scares me Why?

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:10 PM) That's not hard to do at all.... Greasy the comedian.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:10 PM) Serves you right Just for that, I demand my money be in all 10's and I expect those bills to be new and crisp.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:07 PM) Read too fast. Still, thundersticks suck. Decent chance they pull them out for one of these games i imagine. You made me look bad too by doing that. I didn't even read what steve said, just saw what you said.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 04:03 PM) Thundersticks suck. ^^^

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 03:42 PM) To be 100% honest, I have season tickets for this year, so my view is skewed anyway....

QUOTE(The Human Borch @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 03:40 PM) I understand this point of view because I'd much rather see the Cell filled up than seeing an ocean of empty seats. All I'm trying to say is I'd rather see loyal fans filling up those seats than people who didn't care about the Chicago White Sox until October of 2005. Ya we all would but no matter who is showing up it brings in more money which brings in more quality players.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 03:35 PM) Not when they need a massive late run to beat a Gonzaga team that we've been ripping for months, and when they let a Memphis team that barely shot 30% with no 3's hang around for the entire game. They play some pretty good D, but so does LSU, and they've got a much better inside game. Well yes, they played like total s*** for 35 minutes of that zags game and pulled it out, that's a mark of a pretty good team imo. Also LSU obviously has the better inside game but UCLA has the better guards which is also pretty obvious. I can see this game going either way but I'm cheering for LSU cause I win more money if UCLA doesn't win it all.

I'm ready for the season, I just don't care about the bandwagon. I just can't wait to get the park sunday night, my god it's almost here.

QUOTE(ZoomSlowik @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 03:30 PM) I picked LSU. I think it's going to be either them or Florida. I don't think UCLA can hang with LSU. Frankly, they were fortunate to get through a very weak bracket. Ha, still not sold on ucla obviously?

Yeesh Thome went yard again? I think he's almost ready. Can I get a mini recap from someone as I just got back from class.

QUOTE(WhiteSoxfan1986 @ Mar 27, 2006 -> 03:03 PM) There was also UMASS in 1996. They're really not a true mid major though. The a10 isn't a bcs conference but it's kind of in the middle between mid major and power conference.

Horrible. RIP.
