  1. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 29, 2013 -> 10:50 AM) I am in the minority I know, but I think the Nets will be an old, disjointed, injury riddled s*** sandwich. Like D'Antoni Knicks type s*** sandwich. I don't think they're going to be that bad, I basically think they're a few steps below the top 3 but about a billion steps ahead of the rest of the east. That being said, I'd be absolutely shocked if they can beat the Bulls, Heat or Pacers in the playoffs.
  2. QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 11:14 PM) No idea why caroll wasn't using time outs once it got to first and goal. Ha I was yelling at my tv, coaches are so damn clueless at times.

    QUOTE (greg775 @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 10:12 PM) How's the dating, pick-up scene in college these days? Are the women easy to pick-up if that's your thing? Or are we in a generation of more responsible behavior, i.e., not as much sex? I've been out of school for 3 years but if you're not getting laid, you're not trying.
  4. Really random way to bring Punk and Bryan together but I'm intrigued.
  5. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 07:47 PM) It doesn't bother me anymore. There is always a golden child, in every generation. He became it. Kids love him, he loves what he does. It is what it is I don't care about him winning, he's one of the best overall guys on the roster and he makes them money but having the first 2 storylines he's involved in both be about overcoming the odds is just played out. Like you said though, it is what it is and isn't changing any time soon.
  6. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 07:32 PM) Cena and Sandow are having an awesome MITB cash in match. I fully expect Soxfest to hate it Very good match but the further push of the Super Cena stuff is very annoying.

    QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 04:59 PM) You can take the kid out of college but you can't take the college out of the kid. Correct.

    It's nice not being broke but I'd give anything to go back to college.
  9. QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 02:18 PM) The SEC wouldn't have the pull to jump over FSU or Oregon but there might be enough pull to jump OSU. I would suspect that OSU would get in but I could see people pushing for Alabama. Ya I actually think a 1 loss Bama team would jump OSU. That being said, I don't really see Bama losing this year until the championship if FSU or Oregon gets there as well.
  10. QUOTE (Brian @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 07:16 AM) Shawn isn't wrestling outside of Mania, if that. Give me 3 survivor series matches! They have the roster and feuds to go it. Ya I don't think HBK is ever going to wrestle again though I would sure love him to and him vs. Bryan at mania would be amazing
  11. QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Oct 28, 2013 -> 08:33 AM) I just remember how hot that team was out of the gate and by like early June, it seemed like they'd expended too much energy. Frank came back and hit like 12 homers in a month's worth of games and kick started that team. How has no one mentioned Rally Crede yet? That was the most excited and intense I have ever been for one of the first 162 games in my life. I mentioned it in the original post, assface.
  12. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Oct 27, 2013 -> 10:26 PM) Forever? Yes? Prolly should, I'm just dumb.
  13. No more drinking.
  14. QUOTE (Tex @ Oct 27, 2013 -> 09:02 AM) BTW, I have no doubt that Ozzie would be better respected (ok I need a better word than respect) and his accomplishments seen in a more favorable light, if not for the efforts of Mr. Greg. The more Greg seeks to elevate the man, the further down we collectively push. Like everyone else associated with the team, he had good years and bad. His last year was bad and that is how we remember him best. He was awful after 05. The fact that he just gave up a few years ago rubbed a lot of people the wrong way, Greg or no Greg.
  15. QUOTE (RockRaines @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 10:05 PM) Laces were in Dan! Ha, that was legit the first thing I thought.
  16. QUOTE (BigHurt3515 @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 11:02 PM) I can't believe I forgot about Marte and Vizcaino. I knew there was another lefty in the pen and I just couldn't get the name. I was in 7th grade when we won so give me a break lol Ha, Viz is semi forgettable but I pretty much wanted to kill Damaso/Ozzie by the end of the season.
  17. Baseball is really f***in dumb.
  18. QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 02:13 PM) Their D is about what I expected, maybe even a little better. The problem is the offense has been out of sync most of the year. Their offensive line stinks, a lot of holding penalties and false starts (plus somehow they have like 5 false starts on receivers). They're not a team that can consistently recover from penalties. I'm really worried about next year's offense without Colter, Simien has looked brutal this year. I haven't watched every minute but I feel that Simien at least looked adequate at the beginning of the year and has just gotten worse and worse as the season has went on.
  19. QUOTE (SpainSOXfan09 @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 01:17 PM) I'm not exactly sure they wouldn't prefer to ask for Sale instead. I am no expert but is Sale's upside much better than Price's? I mean from a delivery and mechanics point of view Price is much smoother but he has multiple winning seasons under his belt and 2 years of ARB control which will cost probably between 15-18 million each. Then come the Free Agency years that are sure to be north of 22-23 million and it gets crazy real quick. The thing that will really put Sale in the Kershaw and Price conversation as one of the top 3 lefty Aces is if he can have multiple winning seasons starting 2014. Then there is the question of his mechanics. Some on the board have already predicted his arm will fall off sooner rather than later but the blogger that posted this article seems to think that his delivery although violent will not be a long term injury concern. Who knows. It was a fun thread though. Nobody cares if he has "winning seasons" trust me on this. QUOTE (SpainSOXfan09 @ Oct 26, 2013 -> 01:25 PM) OK, but what about the whole question of mechanics? I know injuries can happen at anytime but I keep reading Sale is headed for TJ surgery at some point in his early career. Chris is at not higher risk of injury than any other pitcher in baseball, I assume people around baseball have started to realize this now.
  20. Man Northwestern sucks. Too bad.
  21. That quiz took me like 30 seconds. All those names are engraved in my mind forever.
