Happy bday, Zach!

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Dec 1, 2010 -> 12:53 PM) I tried to look back to the point where we had out last "Will the Lakers hit 72?" discussion, but couldn't find it. Man, we get a lot of posts in this thread. It was only a few weeks ago that a few people brought that up. I say this every year because for some reason it gets brought up a lot but that record isn't being broken in our lifetimes.

QUOTE (Y2HH @ Dec 1, 2010 -> 12:36 PM) FIXED. Heh, I knew someone would do that. QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 1, 2010 -> 12:39 PM) Preach. One of my cats is totally cool about it and will sit under the tree and have a fine time. The other one isn't happy unless ornaments are on the floor and he's nustled somewhere in the upper 2/3. Ya, our youngest one(which drives me crazy in general) not only tries to knock everything off the damn tree but decides she also wants to climb the damn thing and sit in the middle of it.

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Dec 1, 2010 -> 10:35 AM) We had a tree just like that. We finally ended up taking all the lights off of it. Having a pre-lit tree sounds nice at first... We've had one for about 4 years now, works just fine so far. Anyways, Cats + Christmas Trees = Most annoying thing in the world.

We literally just brought it up from out of the garage, about to get to work on it. As usual the tree will be taken over by White Sox and Bulls ornaments.

QUOTE (fathom @ Nov 30, 2010 -> 03:16 PM) You must enjoy playing fantasy sports. I can't believe that a Sox fan would say that after the Swisher and OC debacles here. Lets also not pretend that it hasn't worked with certain guys that we've picked up. It all depends on the situation, O Dog might fit in perfectly with the Sox clubhouse, who the hell knows.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Nov 30, 2010 -> 12:26 AM) I think Rose has elevated his game this season to be in the conversation with Paul and Williams. Just sayin. Easily. As a matter of fact, he might just be the best offensive pg in the game right now, problem is the other side of the ball.

QUOTE (thxfrthmmrs @ Nov 29, 2010 -> 11:38 PM) russell westbrook is playing out of his mind right now, almost makes it seem like it's his team instead of durant's. if it werent for CP3 and DWill, the debate would be who is the best PG in the league between Rose and Westbrook, maybe Rondo. So who was laughing at me when I say Rose can learn a thing or two from Westbrook back in the summer? What exactly is Rose going to learn from Westbrook though? Russell has been fantastic this season but Derrick has been just a tad better.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Nov 29, 2010 -> 06:52 PM) Uribe hit .149/.196/.277/.473 in the 2010 postseason. He did fairly well in big spots, hence a positive WPA, but it wasn't anything otherworldly. As I've said before, I like Juan because of his defense but his offense drove me beyond nuts, that being said the one thing you can always count on from him was a sac fly when you needed one in a big spot.

I haven't even bothered to watch the music video yet and I know not all of you guys are hip hop fans but let me know what you think of this song(it was played on WGN about a week ago):

QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 29, 2010 -> 04:54 PM) Why do you want to do that? Beckham should not be traded unless you get a sure thing in return. Rasmus has potential, but he's not a sure thing. His "K to games played" ratio is pretty eye-opening. Rasmus is essentially the Cardinals version of Beckham except the fact he has a higher ceiling as a hitter. If you can sign a decent 2b(wouldn't be that difficult) then a Beckham for Rasmus swap actually makes a ton of sense to be honest.

QUOTE (Heads22 @ Nov 29, 2010 -> 12:55 PM) Woo, up to two votes. March to world domination is on. Coaches still hate you.

Due Date was hilarious imo.

QUOTE (Felix @ Nov 28, 2010 -> 12:36 AM) Ya ya, he's good too. QUOTE (sircaffey @ Nov 28, 2010 -> 12:38 AM) How can you not like the extension? That ^

I'm actually really looking forward to the TCU-Wisco match up. I'll probably have more interest in that game than the National Title(assuming Auburn and Oregon both take care of business next week of course).

QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Nov 28, 2010 -> 01:20 AM) Lately he's been taking some really ill-advised shots though, imo. Still playing ridiculous though. He's definitely forcing more shots this year as a whole but he's still shooting a decent percentage. I honestly haven't seen a lot of this west coast trip though minus the first two or so games so I'll take your word for it.

QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 07:34 PM) And he backs up that statement with a solid night tonight. Him and Teague went beast mode, i like. It's hard to explain but when you watch you can just tell that Seck is the one guy out there that actually belongs and knows wtf he's doing. QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 07:55 PM) Teague was horrific against Purdue. I flipped the channel when he got the 6th travelling call against him(7th turnover at the time) Teague was awful against Purdue, period. The thing is, he's one of the few guys on this garbage squad that actually has the potential to be a high impact player. This traveling bug that he has really shouldn't be that hard to get rid of if we had anyone to coach this damn kid at all, it's really not that complicated.

BTW, Rose is now up to 27, 8 and 5 a game, what a joke!

So my Saturday night consisted of going out to eat at the Olive Garden, going to see a movie and buying myself a 6 pack of good beer to go home and drink. I think this officially makes me old.

I'm almost in shock when I come home when I didn't watch the game and see that Joakim actually didn't have double digit rebounds.

QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 03:32 PM) Please just beat Wright St. I wanna have some sort of hope going into the game against New Mexico. Btw Mamadou Seck is quickly becoming my favorite player on this team. Dude just plays balls out and deserves 30 minutes on the court Agreed.

QUOTE (Sonik22 @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 03:28 PM) Sorry it's taken me so long to respond. Been really busy at home during break. I was at the game against St. Rita and it felt great to repay them for what they did to us in the finals my junior year. LZ just keeps reloading every year and I really don't know how we've done it. When we won state my senior year I felt that was gonna be the last good year of football for a while for LZ. I was very wrong. This team is a perennial powerhouse and Stortz has a system that works very well. Here's to LZ beating WWS again for the state championship! And Rowand, LZ should still be undefeated, that game was bs. Ha, that was the first high school football game I went to in about 4 years and it was certainly quite the game to be at. Ridiculously fun.

QUOTE (Tex @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 09:03 AM) Every guy with a good season in a Sox uni will fall apart next season, He's not going to suck but there's a 0 percent chance that he repeats last season.

QUOTE (iamshack @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 08:14 AM) Yeah, but then LSU gets in ahead of them as a no loss SEC team, don't they? LSU lost to Auburn.

QUOTE (dasox24 @ Nov 27, 2010 -> 01:22 AM) Thank you, Nevada. Hopefully this will finally shut up all the Boise St. lovers (e.g. Pat Forde). And me. Damn, that really sucked. Anyways, gotta admit that I was wrong on the Boise topic, the end.
