2010-11 MLB Offseason Catch-All
QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 10:14 PM) Andruw Jones is still good and would have been great with the Sox this year too. As is, Williams didn't feel he was necessary or worth upwards of $3 mill, though he will almost certainly be worth that. He still absolutely destroys lefties. I think KW just thought his remaining resources were best used elsewhere. Apparently in his mind he'd rather have a LOOGY than a 4th of that can mash lefties and play good defense at this point.

2010-11 MLB Offseason Catch-All
QUOTE (greg775 @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 10:02 PM) Wow. The Yankees think he has something left in the tank. I won't miss him, but I'm also not crazy about Teahen out there. Isn't Danks ready to be a backup outfielder? How come every other sport promotes young guys quickly but not baseball? Let.Danks.Play. Danks isn't good, that's the problem.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 10:44 PM) The Bulls are the ultimate "play to your opponents level" team. They certainly have been as of late. Very good win tonight. Obviously Dallas isn't the same team with out Caron but beating any quality opponent with out Carlos and Joakim is certainly a plus.

Teahen your starter?
I'm sure we're all fine with this being an open competition but you have to hope that Ozzie just doesn't give the job to Teahan for some reason. Unfortunately, it wouldn't shock me if something like that did happen.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 20, 2011 -> 07:00 PM) There's not a damn thing we could offer Denver outside of Noah and Rose. This is not even worth wasting a half a second over. We have no draft picks, young players [and when I say young players I mean impact young players] to offer, and no expiring contracts. We are what we are for now. 50-win team who's absolute ceiling is the ECF's. We appear to be a 50 win team with out one of our all star big men. I agree that we aren't going to get Melo but you need to slow down on declaring the ceiling of this team the ECF.

Shouldn't Melo, LeBron, Garnett and Kobe all be on the Bulls by now?

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 09:20 PM) Watching the Bulls can be hard, what is Thib doing. 3 point game with 33 seconds left, the first thing you should do is try and score 2 for 1. Instead bulls score with 25 seconds left. They let 15 seconds run down and they arent even fouling? I dont think you can let it go to 1.3 seconds left, gotta foul immediately. Ya, Thibs clock management was pretty brutal down the stretch last night.

The officiating the last 2 or so minutes of that half was about as horrendous as you'll see.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 04:25 PM) To be fair, Row could have lined up as QB against Carolina and won. Well thank you. I did play qb on my flag football team junior year of high school.

Albert Pujols' extension - Cards fail to extend by deadline
QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 12:15 PM) Yes. Albert Pujols is worth more in revenue to the Cardinals than to any other team, Yankees included. Is he though? This argument obviously makes sense for a lot of players but I don't think Pujols is one of them.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Jan 18, 2011 -> 11:35 AM) The Bears had the same issue. They didnt have Cutler for Carolina, and lets be honest, Cutler wasnt there for the Giants after the second sack Eh that's a fair point on the Carolina game, I had completely forgotten about that to be honest.

Also have to remember that GB was with out Rodgers for more than a game and a half. Decent chance they would have finished 12 and 4 if he played every game. Anyways, should be a great game, I'd give the Packers a bit of an edge but I certainly wouldn't be shocked if the Bears win this one.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 08:44 PM) I see a clear separation between the Bulls and Miami/Boston/Orlando. It doesn't mean I don't think we can't get there, but I see the Bulls a tier below that group. Our guard play, minus Rose, is going to hold us back. Completely disagree. I still think some of our own fans severely underestimate this team. QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 08:47 PM) Full strength in the playoffs, that Miami back court is going to kill the Bulls. I wouldn't be surprised at a sweep. No chance.

47 and 14 for Blake with 40 seconds left. Maybe he can take off from beyond the arc and dunk in a 3 for 50!

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 02:40 PM) I think Fox has to be thrilled with the GB/Chicago matchup, but I think most of the rest of the country would have liked to see someone other than the Bears in the NFC title game. Maybe New Orleans-Packers or Philly-New Orleans. As for CBS, I am sure they knew coming in to the playoffs that any matchup, perhaps with the exception of one with the Chiefs involved, was going to be a solid one. That being said, I'm pretty sure they would have rather had New England or Indianapolis involved somehow. As much as the Jets are entertaining, I don't think they bring in the casual fan the way Peyton Manning and Tom Brady can. Right on point with everything here.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Jan 17, 2011 -> 02:43 PM) And only one turnover. Great great game. Korver with a terrific game, too. And Deng continues to make people eat their words about his salary. He is a great offensive player and very very good on D. Rudy Gay just got owned. Today was the most impressed I've been with Deng all season. He was just absolutely terrific overall today. Anywho, I just want this damn team to get fully healthy. I can't wait to see our actual team out there at some point.

What Kind of Car Do You Drive?
So my dad just got my step mom a 2011 Buick Regal(which is gorgeous btw), I can't even say he bought it because he ended up getting a check from the dealership with the trade in of our 2010 Malibu. Crazyness. He also has a 2011 Corvette Z06 which I believe he's had for about 5 months now, nicest kept car you'll ever see. Pretty sure that thing has less than 50 miles on it though and that's not an exaggeration. He's a nut job when it comes to cars.

QUOTE (DrunkBomber @ Jan 16, 2011 -> 10:20 PM) I agree, just thought it was a little stretch to say the Jets dont really have a chance against the Steelers. Agreed. As long as Sanchez doesn't throw the game away they can beat anyone. I like the Steelers in this one though, thought they've been the best team in the league all season long. Funny though, looking back on my preseason predictions, I actually had the Jets and the Packers playing in the super bowl. If that ends up happening, I'm going to be quite pissed that I didn't put money on it!
