2nd time in a week and a half that we've had an "ice" day and got off school. Good times.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Feb 21, 2008 -> 06:47 AM) I know, its night and day. The reason I think the Salukis have such a good shot at Arch Madness is because of their home court advantage. Yup, it'll be nice to have the most fans there. As I told you before I really think it'll be us or Bradley with a lean towards BU right now. Can't count CU out either as Altman has pretty much owned that tournament but I just don't think they'll pull it off. I really, really don't think it's going to be Drake though, their style of play isn't exactly ideal for winning 3 games in 3 days. Anyways, I'm very interested to see how we play on Tuesday at BU(obviously we have Nevada first but it's at home). I already have it down as a L but if we do win, we might actually be turning that corner. But this team has let me down way too much, so I'm expecting another one.

QUOTE(SoxAce @ Feb 20, 2008 -> 10:26 PM) I feel great about him THIS year. I'm a huge fan of Danks and I even have expectations for him this season. To the few Danks fans here. Define fan? Cause I like Danks and I think he can eventually be semi successful but right now between him, JC and Floyd I just think there is such a high chance for failure.

QUOTE(The Critic @ Feb 20, 2008 -> 07:51 PM) , the wind would be merely a nuisance IMO. Nah, any wind at all COMPLETELY changes a shot, doesn't matter how much there is. It'd definitely be more than a nuisance. I'm not pissed by this or anything since it is a preseason game but it's a dumb idea imo.

As much as these two scare the hell out of me this season, I really am excited to see how much/if they improved. Can't wait for the games to start.

We're honestly like a top 20 team at home and a bottom 200 team on the road. It's absolutely ridiculous.

QUOTE(Sonik22 @ Feb 20, 2008 -> 02:46 PM) Bradley is a VERY dangerous team with Daniel Ruffin. That guy is a machine, and he makes that whole team go! Yeup. They're the favorites in St. Louis imo.

72 and 10 wont ever fall, at least not in my life time. That's the best basketball team you will ever see.

Playing basketball outside is a dumb idea, preseason or not.

I don't want Owens anywhere near the starting lineup but there is no problem with setting goals.

QUOTE(danman31 @ Feb 19, 2008 -> 09:32 PM) Wtf was that Drake? Way to blow it at home to a mediocre team (Bradley). That was embarrassing for them. Well Drake is only playing for seeding at this point. So ya, that hurts but it doesn't kill them. Also, Bradley is 14 and 7(and one of those losses he only played 12 minutes cause he was hurt) when their best player is in the lineup, so they're not fantastic but they're better than mediocre.

QUOTE(SleepyWhiteSox @ Feb 19, 2008 -> 12:08 PM) I dislike a bunch of stuff about her, but you can't deny she's hot. Yes you can. She is not good looking imo.

QUOTE(ChiSox_Sonix @ Feb 19, 2008 -> 09:09 AM) I once played power hour for 2 hours and 43 minutes That's impressive. I feel like I can fill up this thread with things that have happened to me the last week and a half. Been a weird few weeks for me.

Last row.

QUOTE(gbuk @ Feb 18, 2008 -> 05:45 PM) There are no title contenders in the Big Ten. Saying "anyone can beat anyone on a given night" is valid to an extent, but 6 in a row? In that case, I guess everyone in the tournament is a title contender. And you breaking down the Big Ten's best wins is great and all, but you can do that for every league's top teams and use it to argue your point. Ding, ding, ding.

Awesome. I love Pablo as a bench player.

Bryan Mullins. 1 game out of 2nd. Jesus christ.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Feb 16, 2008 -> 05:54 PM) 11 points in the first half? Seriously, Iowa State. This is what happens when you become a SIU fan, heads. Your teams don't score.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Feb 16, 2008 -> 11:15 AM) Pretty much my sentiments. NY style pizza sucks. Yes QUOTE(Athomeboy_2000 @ Feb 16, 2008 -> 12:26 PM) There is no other style than Lou's deep dish. All others are just imitators. Yes

With Ill State losing today our game @ WSU all the sudden becomes huge. If we win we're a game behind the 2 seed with a game against them here and the probable tie breaker. I don't know why I keep falling into the trap of thinking maybe these guys can get something going but I just refuse to quit on them. I know they'll punch me in the gut again today.

Good for him but it means absolutely nothing. Dropping weight doesn't mean you're a better pitcher. As Keith said, Wass is still the better pitcher until proven other wise.

That Toews goal last night was sick. Jesus.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Feb 14, 2008 -> 11:14 PM) Yeah, I've had some luck in the last few minutes. One FINALLY texted me back, I have been able to pretty much confirm another person is fine (although I'd prefer to actually talk to him, but it's on good word), still 1 person I am quite worried about though. And yeah, I have met the dude that worked at the star a few times in passing, although I didn't know him. Nice guy at least in the brief exchanges we had, what a shame. I thought it couldn't get worse last year since my best friend from HS goes to Virginia Tech and was right near the shootings as they happened and had met the shooter a few months earlier and had survivors guilt...........but now perhaps it has. Good to see you're alright, man. My cousin is up at NIU and I guess her and my aunt completely freaked out so my dad went to go pick both of them up. Scary crap. People are just messed up.

Best bullpen in the AL Back end of the rotation keeps us out of the playoffs. That's all I got.

Disgusting.
