Mark Buehrle is about as untouchable as any player in baseball.

Bmac's fastball had a ton more movement on it when he came back up for the 2nd stint. His arm angle was all out of sorts when he first came up hence why he wasn't throwing his change at all and why his fb was as straight as an arrow.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 5, 2006 -> 10:21 PM) They showed the replay of that holding call. There was nothing that struck my eyes as holding either. Nothing even close. The Steelers line had a bunch of plays that would have been called holding if that standard was their holding standard. Don't care what Madden says except in that it agrees with what my eyes saw. Extending your arm does not equal a pushoff. You can extend your arm without pushing off. If there was a push...it was incredibly minor. He gave him a little shove, was it minor? Sure, but it caused seperation allowing the catch.

I'll also throw out the game 1 in the ws performance by Neal and Bobby.

Yikes, I'm absolutely shocked there is such an outrage about the officiating. That pass interference call in the endzone was pass interference, period. He extended his arm giving him room to make that catch. The Ben play can go either way the aj comparison is perfect. The only horrible call I saw was the chop block by Matt, I didn't see that. Pitt won this game, I guess when your team doesn't win there is just always going to be complaining about officials. Also whoever verified that there wasn't holding because John Madden says there wasn't...HELLO, it's John f***in Madden.

The duke takes this easily for me.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 5, 2006 -> 03:29 PM) I should ad, not only did I pick the Seahawks to win...its pretty much a lock in my book. Note to self..bet on steelers.

How the hell did this guy get a job writing about baseball?

Well since I predicted the exact score correctly from last superbowl I mine as well throw my prediction in there again. Pitt 24-Seattle 20.

Iowa State up 15 on Colorado. I'll just throw that out there as a conversation starter once heads gets back from the game.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Feb 3, 2006 -> 11:56 PM) I remember a certain poster calling him "Jermaine Die" but he was banned long ago . . . or was he?

KU wins.

Back and forth lead changes, OU with the ball down 1 with 19 secs left.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 5, 2006 -> 01:33 PM) They are coming on strong. Very. As far as parody goes, Duke is not a great team if they face the right opponent they could be gone in the sweet 16. People might think I'm crazy for this second team but the two best teams I've seen play this year are UCONN and Florida.

Georgetown beats Pitt by the way.

Well I was one of those people who thought Florida was overrated. I'll say right now..this team is not overrated. This is a really, really good team and Taurean Green is special. He also makes very good decisions for a sophomore pg.

I got no problem with the new ads for the most part but that wrigleyville one has to go.

Great game on espn right now. That was a fantastic first half of basketball.

Ok State wins.

Boo.

game, at large hopes going down the tubes quickly.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Feb 4, 2006 -> 01:30 PM) I know I am biased so I will ask others..... Am I nuts or is UConn just that damned good? They are making fall away shots, making shots when they aren't squared to the basket AND a guys hand in their face. IU has weaknesses inside, there is no doubt about that. But I think UConn is just playing THAT GOOD in the 2nd half as opposed to IU being bad. They're the best team in the country, obviously doesn't mean they are going to win the whole thing but imo there is no one better then them.

Double ot in wichita.

QUOTE(maggsmaggs @ Feb 4, 2006 -> 01:08 PM) Witchita St./ So. ILL is such a great game. IMO, Creighton, N. Iowa, Wichita St. and Souther ILL. should all be in the dance. Well I'm obviously going to agree but Wichita State is in a whole bunch of trouble if they lose this but we our as well. The difference is the shockers would be 0 and 4 against the other top teams in the league if they lose this and we'd be 2 and 2 with at creighton and home vs uni left.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Feb 4, 2006 -> 01:04 PM) Louisville hits a three at the buzzer to force overtime against Notre Dame. SIU and Wichita State headed to OT as well. Tatum hit a 3 to send our game into ot as well after almost turning the ball over.
