QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Feb 22, 2013 -> 10:02 AM) Anyone going to the Big Ten tournament? A couple of friends and I looked but the tickets were kinda pricey, like 400 bucks for the weekend. Sold out now of course, so it doesn't matter, but we decided to take off Friday and head to a bar for the day instead. The tournament should be a lot of fun to watch this year. I thought about it but between taking off a few days for Arch Madness and taking Thursday-Friday off for the first week of the big dance, I couldn't swing it. Speaking if which, my Arch Madness tickets came in the mail today. Hooray!

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 22, 2013 -> 11:27 AM) Those are not very strong numbers for the PCL, but more depth at 3B is not a bad thing at all. Soptic was intriguing, being able to throw 300 MPH and all, but his numbers weren't promising and he's not going to be anything more than a reliever. Oh c'mon, he could not throw 300 mph.

Kyyle's right. Who ended up winning that game?

Game 2, 2005 World Series...it was kind of worth it.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Feb 20, 2013 -> 09:11 PM) A little over a year ago, I was at 240 pounds and my goal was to get to 199, where I was my senior year of high school right before baseball season started. On February 7th, I reached that goal. It was an incredible feeling of achievement for me. Congrats man, that's awesome.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Feb 20, 2013 -> 08:09 PM) 1. Who are you? 2. Can you dunk on an 8' yet? 1. Ha. I absolutely despise it but when I get to a certain point it's a necessary adjustment I have to make to break on through to get where I want to get. 2. Har har har. I can hang on a 10 foot rim pretty easily but since I can't palm a ball while running I can't dunk yet. Hopefully by May or so ill be there.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 20, 2013 -> 01:30 PM) I do use the Smith machine when doing squats, so it is assisted somewhat. I also don't ever plan on doing a ton of weight with squats simply because if a knee or my back gives, you can have weight falling on your pretty quickly (which is also why I use the Smith machine as well. I do heavy weight squats with the smith machine and lighter with out. I love/hate it. Despise it while I'm doing it but squats make my athletic perfirmance(especially vertical leap) so much greater. I've ramped up my workouts/nutrition as of late, even scheduling training sessions very early on weekend mornings so I don't ruin my diet the night before by drinking myself into oblivion.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 19, 2013 -> 10:07 PM) Great DH on espn tonight What you said.

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Feb 19, 2013 -> 08:22 PM) I totally missed the last FT and rebound. Searching for Satellite Signal for 2 seconds! ugh Ha same thing here.

I'm not usually the nostalgic type but the old belts just look better. The current/old ic belt is just fantastic, they need to bring back the winged eagle belt. That one rocked.

Guess I'm in the minority here but I really like Ambrose. Anywho, the new belt is ugly as hell. I think everyone is happy the spinner belt is gone but damn they f***ed this new one up bad.

Wow Wichita.

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 17, 2013 -> 08:49 PM) I wouldn't say he's terrible but not very interesting, even with Dutch Mantell. Odd push for guy who had been gone awhile and wasn't over at all when he left. May as well put him in tile match. Card gonna blow anyway. He usually bores the hell out of me but I do like his new character. Like you said though, such a weird push. Yay shield!

QUOTE (Brian @ Feb 17, 2013 -> 11:33 AM) Then they should name it RematchMania! Brock/HHH, Rock/Cena, Jericho/Ziggler. Mania booking is just lazy this year. Where does Punk fit in? Taker? Triple Threat with Rock/Cena? Just ugh. I think it's more likely that Ziggler costs Jericho tonight setting up Ziggs-Jericho at mania with no title. And as much as I like both guys, I'm with you, having all these rematches at mania is just f***in ridiculous. If I had to guess, the top mania matches are going to be: Cena-Rock twice in a lifetime HHH-Brock 2 Jericho-Ziggler like 12 Punk-taker if taker is good to go Del Rio-Swagger for the WHC Yuck.

Colorado-asu awesomeness.

Wash state hits a 3 with 4 seconds left in ot to tie Oregon and then intentionally fouls, Oregon hits 2 fts and wins. Ha ha ha.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Feb 16, 2013 -> 07:38 PM) for my SIU brethren into sadomasochism, SIU/MSU is on ESPN3 They're obviously playing a whole lot better the last few weeks. Hopefully they can keep it up into the Lou and at least get out of Thursday.

Worked out with a trainer today so did a full body routine. Good stuff. I'm going to try and work out with a different trainer once a week to vary my work outs a bit.

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Feb 15, 2013 -> 09:08 AM) So does Greg officially work for the KGB? Or is he more of an independent contact that Elizabeth trusts (and f***s)? He does not.

That was really bizarre.

Fun while it lasted, good effort cats!

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 07:54 PM) That was definitely not a charge against Minnesota. Awful call. Agreed.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Feb 14, 2013 -> 07:20 PM) John was a better athlete, but he does look freakishly similar. Those goofy looking jumpers haven't been going in during games very often though. Ha ya, I was talking solely on the jump shot form.
