QUOTE(robinventura23 @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 03:54 PM) I'd rather Owens be in CF. But I like what I see. Why? He's not a centerfielder.

QUOTE(SSH2005 @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 03:32 PM) 2 hits for the Sox through 6 innings. Mackowiak and Dye singled. How come Mack doesn't have a cute little nickname yet?

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 11:42 AM) I won't even comment on how his D is kinda overrated and his shooting isn't all that good...I'll just say he'll be 37 in '08. He's a great defender, he might play a little dirty but he's easily one of the best perimeter defenders in the game. I must agree though, being first in the league in 3 point percentage is pretty bad.

Some bubble games in the big 12 tonight: Colorado at Kansas and Texas at A&M. A&M's resume is horrendous but they've been playing well as of late and with a win over Texas they can put themselves in contention for an at large. A loss though and they're done. Go Kansas and Texas. EDIT: Should definitely add the Kentucky-Tennesee game as a big bubble game tonight. Hopefully Pearl will have his team ready tonight. I hate that douche but I'm cheering for him tonight.

QUOTE(fathom @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 03:13 PM) Yep, we suck. Glad to see you're in mid season form.

It's about a million degress in carbondale today.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 03:11 PM) 2-0 Rockies. Jose had a rough 3rd. He did throw strikes, though. Our offense has done nothing so far. Corpseball is back.

I just got back from class, anyone got a mini recap for me?

I really think Bowen is the perfect guy for this team. Fantasic D, good 3 point shooter. Put me on the bandwagon who definitely thinks Bruce should be on the team.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 11:23 AM) It can happen.

I hope Aaron comes, I'd love to give him a standing O.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 09:14 AM) What you gonna do when Marcellus Sommerville and Patrick O'Bryant run wild on you? /obligatory post in this thread. Eh, atleast if we face them we're in the ncaa tourny. They're definitely the favorites though imo entering this thing.

12 hours till game time folks.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 01:47 AM) He did get posterized by Lamar though. Ya he did, big time.

QUOTE(The Bones @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 01:39 AM) You're probably right about Missouri State already being in, but I think UNI is a little questionable, they've struggled recently as has SIU. It's just strange to think that the MVC could get as many as 5 teams because in past years 3 was considered good. Of course all of this depends on who wins the other tournaments to get the automatic bids. Yup, everything is dependable on the tourny and if the Memphis's, Bucknell's, GW'S, and Gonzaga's of the world win their tourny's. Just looking at the numbers the Valley really could get 6 in but I just don't see it happening because I just don't see the committe giving that many bids to a non bcs school. As far as UNI goes, in any other year UNI would be in deep trouble but the bubble is weak this year and with UNI having some really good wins over Iowa and LSU in their non conference schedule they should still be ok if they lose their first round game. That being said if they do lose first round, I would definitely not be comfortable if I were a UNI fan come selection sunday.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 01:33 AM) one of those march madness things.

QUOTE(yuri @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 12:35 AM) Wow, what a bunch of babies! Kenny and Ozzie! Frank has handled himself just fine. Has he complained a little? Sure, but after what he's done over the years, he has every right to. Nice to know that the White Soxs' run won't last very long with a couple of children running the show. Those "children" got us something we haven't had since about 1347.

QUOTE(The Bones @ Mar 1, 2006 -> 12:05 AM) Go ISU, yay! But seriously, I think the MVC is a good bet to get 4 teams into the tournament. Wichita State is in, if SIU beats ISU/Evansville, which they should, they'll be in, the winner of the UNI-Missouri St game will get in and Creighton should get in. Bradley would have to beat Creighton to have any shot to get in. I wouldn't be too confident in the loser of the UNI-Missouri St. game getting in though. Also, I think that the Friday and Saturday games are all on Comcast Chicago. I see it a bit different then you, though I'm pretty sure we'll get atleast 4 depending on what happens. Wichita State and Missouri State are in, both have top 20 rpi's, even if Missouri State lost to UNI there rpi wouldn't drop that much. One team in the last 15 years in the top 30 of the rpi has been left out and I believe that team was ineligible. UNI is probably in no matter what but they've fallen awfully close to the bubble and will have to sweat it out a bit if they lose Friday, though like I said I think they'll be fine. The Creighton/Bradley game could be an elimination game though once again Creighton should be ok if they lose. It's a must win for Bradley, they lose and they're done, they win though and there is a good shot they're in. As far as SIU, Friday is a must win, we get upset and we're done. If we lose on Saturday we'll be sweating things out, we'll be directly on the bubble with a decent shot to get in but it sure wouldn't be comfortable. We get to the championship game and we're in. I really can't wait for Friday, this weekend is going to be a blast, so much good basketball.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Feb 28, 2006 -> 05:24 PM) Boy Meets World I loved that show but that was on for a while.

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Feb 28, 2006 -> 11:51 PM) Im rooting for illini I dont care that they have a very little chance if any its all about the kool aid. Who are you picking, not who you want.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Feb 28, 2006 -> 11:37 PM) Not at all. We'll probably be the 10 seed, pitting us against the 7, which is now Tech. Well I lied then, I thought for some reason I saw that projected. I didn't even look at the standings or anything when I asked that question. My bad.

Nova.
