I would like to see that stop and us promote from within I agree with the first part of your post. As for the 2nd part, name one prospect that has come back to haunt us? Just one...

Taylor Swift and Emma Watson for me.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan99 @ Dec 31, 2009 -> 01:11 PM) I know people like to complain about the reffing in the NBA but it is vastly superior to college officiating. There are times I wonder if college refs are even watching the game. Basketball officiating sucks at all levels.

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 30, 2009 -> 10:57 PM) For the past several years, I always get the new White Sox calendar, but think I want to rebel and get something different. I used to get any one Jenny McCarthy put out bak in the day. What should I get? And No! No puppies or kittens! My mom got me the 2010 one for Christmas, it has Thome, Dye and wait for it... JOSH FIELDS on it.

QUOTE (ZoomSlowik @ Dec 30, 2009 -> 10:08 PM) NU really needs to stop letting Mirkovic shoot, he's thrown up an awful lot of ugly shots. He's not exactly the guy I would want taking contested shots. Didn't see the first half but he's looked terrible here in the 2nd half.

170.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Dec 29, 2009 -> 09:57 PM) Wichita State 57 Illinois State 72 Final Well ISU just beat an a very solid 11-1 Wichita State team handily. Theres you non cupcake win Jimbo. Great way to start Valley play. Thought you guys would win, wasn't expecting it to be that easy.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Dec 29, 2009 -> 08:19 PM) Ugly basketball was the hallmark of their tournament run 02-07, so it doesnt phase me anymore And with that ugly drought, they were still only down 2 at the half Hell, I loved ugly ball back in the glory days. That was a different team though, this team can't do what they did and I just expect more offensively overall out of this group. They FINALLLLLLLLY showed what they can do in the 2nd half today. The defense was beautiful, the run outs, the shooting, everything was just pertty in the 2nd half and all with Kevin, Tony and Carlton on the bench. Good start, now here comes the tough road trip.

QUOTE (Brian @ Dec 29, 2009 -> 07:56 PM) We're a second half team...right? We're a last 2 minute of the game team apparently. Whatever, I'm getting used to the uglyness, lets just get a win.

I'm glad I just got to witness the most pathetic 10 minute stretch of basketball I've ever seen in my life. Holy f*** what a brutal half.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Dec 29, 2009 -> 04:24 PM) Not a fan either.. then again.. I got no one to blame than myself. I always win money, but then I get too cocky and keep gambling that same night... that is when trouble starts. Exactly what I did today. Went from up 160 to down 200 in about 10 minutes. I'm not too bright.

So every Valley game tonight opened in Vegas as Pick 'em except the SIU game, obviously some of those spreads have changed but that's absolutely nuts none the less. Hoping for the first time this year we actually come to play for 40 minutes otherwise it might be a long night. Indiana State is much improved and even though it's a home game, I'd bet there is about a whole 12 people at the arena tonight.

I hate casinos.

Good thing Aromawhateveretc hasn't played this season 'til 3 weeks ago.

QUOTE (fathom @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 11:51 PM) Matt Forte's lack of burst this season is amazing. He should have easily picked up the first down on that 3rd down play. That's what happens when you carry the ball a billion times in your rookie season.

I'm surprised the ref didn't explain that the game can end in a tie, for the Donovan Mcnabb's of the world.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 11:38 PM) How often do you see a player get helped up by an official? If I was the ref, I would have kicked him.

QUOTE (Hawkfan @ Dec 28, 2009 -> 06:08 PM) I don't think it was a bad question to ponder, but in this message board you don't mess with TCQ. He has immunity for at least one more year. We're not talking Carlos Quentin vs. Albert Pujols here, we're talking about the near 2008 MVP vs. a prospect who has proven absolutely nothing above AA so far. There's nothing to ponder about this one.

Cmon now...

Vlad please.

But to be fair he used his very own, super-duper, extra special, top secret formula. lol. Wow, just wow.

Two posters I wish posted more. Happy bday guys!

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Dec 27, 2009 -> 10:00 AM) Going into the year with a freshman QB and no starting LB's or your first LB off the bench (all who now are starting in the NFL), I didn't expect to be back in a January bowl game. It's USC. Yes you did.
