QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 10:19 PM) Btw, I expect the Cubs to get Pierre in the next 72 hours, and pay a little more than they need to because of this loss.... Ya know, normally I would completely agree with you. However this is the organization that had no problem starting last year with Corey Patterson as their leadoff man.

YAY for 8 and 4 teams in the bcs.

QUOTE(WHarris1 @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 09:19 PM) That was a f***ing garbage call against Vick when they said he crossed the line. Oh well. That wasn't the penalty you whore.

QUOTE(Felix @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 06:28 PM) Zito is rumored to be headed to Chicago.. but not the south side. Supposedly, according to Phil Rogers on the Score, Zito and Mench are headed to the Cubs, while the Rangers are getting Kerry Wood, Todd Walker, and cash, and the Athletics are getting Soriano and prospects. A friend of mine told me this, but I didn't hear it for myself, hence the "supposedly" It's a rumor from Rogers. Doesn't mean it's happening.

QUOTE(Felix @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 06:29 PM) You put your best hitter third. Ozzie must not have got the memo last year. I'm fine with Thome batting 3rd but you don't necessarily need to have your best hitter bat 3rd.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 06:23 PM) Josh, let's widen the view here. Michigan State was playing very well at the time they played Notre Dame. You can't with any logic or fairness call that a bad loss, just because Michigan State tanked their season after losing to Michigan. If you did, that would be like Auburn fans taking credit for killing South Carolina, a much improved team at the end of the year. But when Auburn played them, SC was terrible and without their starting QB. Can't count that as a "good" win, nor can you count Notre Dame's loss to Michigan St a bad one. The bottom line is, that like it or not, Notre Dame has a deal with the BCS and will get in because of it. If you think the deal sucks, then why not crow just as loudly that the Big East gets a bid? The BCS is what it is. It is designed to do the best possible job to pick the top 2 teams. Anything beyond that is nothing really different from the old days when the conferences were tied to bowls without the BCS. The BCS just puts the top two teams together rather than having them play in separate bowl games. That's it. Can ND take credit for beating Michigan then? At the time they beat them, Michigan was a very average team.

USC running up the score.

QUOTE(FGarcia34 @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 05:50 PM) After hearing that Garland turned down a three year deal from the Sox on ESPN Radio last week, it got The Rock thinking. From the lists of players to be traded the main pitching name that sticks out is Barry Zito. Now with Garland likely to leave in 2007, why not deal him now while his stock is the highest its ever been. Adding another lefty to the staff would be a great addition and from what I can tell Billy Beane loves good looking white pitchers (Zito, Mulder, Harden, etc). So I suggest trading Garland for Zito and securing Zito to one of those patented 3 year 20-some million contract, what do you guys think? What makes you think Barry Zito is going to accept a 3 yr 20 million dollar a year deal? Garland isn't going anywhere anyways, moot point.

Have a good one.

Ozzie has said Thome is batting 3rd. It still wouldn't surprise me if Paul or Dye do, but it won't be Tad.

Bush is horrible.

Well that was one of the worse spots I've ever seen.

This guy isn't human.

Reggie Bush has 105 yards rushing with 3 minutes left in the first quarter.

I wanna go.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 01:36 PM) Prediction: Long of the Year...take the points and UCLA (21 point underdogs). Final Score: UCLA 49 USC 46 I expect a total shootout and a close game. I'm picking UCLA because I'm biased. UCLA has a dynomite offense, USC has no defense. UCLA has no defense and will not be able to stop USC's offense. Turnovers will be the difference and if UCLA wins it will be because USC lost the football (uncharacteristic of them). In all honesty I think USC will win (but I'll make my prediction of UCLA anyway) but its going to be close and it will be a fun game to watch (total shootout). Didn't you predict UCLA to finish outside the top 25 a few weeks ago?

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Dec 3, 2005 -> 01:39 PM) I must be totally missing the boat with Furcal. Before this season, I saw a guy that played defense very similar to Jose Valentin, with fielding percentage included. I also see a guy that happened to have his best year defensively in a contract year. I also see a guy thats already 28 and should have been in his prime for the past 2-3 years, yet none of the season's would put him anything more than slightly above average at the SS position. I see a guy that in his 4 full years in the majors is averaging 12 homers and 56 rbi's with over 600 at-bats each year in a potent Braves lineup. I must be missing something big here if teams are offering him anything over 6-7 million a year. Why are you looking at his power numbers? The guy is a good player but what the dodgers are offering for him is nuts, no doubt about that.
