I've gotten used to the ride but I still have to hop myself up on energy drinks just to stay alert cause it's so damn boring.

QUOTE(Brian @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 11:46 AM) I'm actually going to steal that and make it my avy.

QUOTE(SnB @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 11:06 AM) I'm really excited to see Illinois play tonight, I missed the first exhibition game and kinda feel out of it. Now college basketball can start, because Snb said so. Are you still planning on coming down here for the IU game? Let me know for sure so I can keep a look out for tickets. Greasy what about you?

QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 6, 2007 -> 08:50 AM) Khalil Greene would put up monster numbers in the Cell. I think Jack Wilson is an upgrade over Uribe, especially if Ozzie wants a team that he can put hit-and-runs on, etc. ^^^ I'd absolutely LOVE Khalil Greene.

The "overrated" chant at a sporting event. Makes me want to punch people.

MY FRIENDS CAN BEAT YOUR FRIENDS.

QUOTE(DrunkBomber @ Nov 5, 2007 -> 11:17 PM) I think I can eliminate my lists and sum it up simply, you are the epitome of my pet peeve lol Bahahahaha, awesome.

QUOTE(Brian @ Nov 5, 2007 -> 08:04 PM) Really? Thought the regular season started the week before Thanksgiving. Still, I stand my Derrick Rose being a good shooter. We start virtually a week later than almost everyone. Most teams first regular season game is this week, we just decided to schedule are two exhibitions a week apart.

Memphis pulled away a bit at the end of the half, up 13 now. They're still having issues with ft shooting(definitely the biggest problem with this group), sounds like Rose is all over the damn place.

"Experts" final four picks: http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/preview2007/...=finalfourpicks Fran Fraschilla with Tenn winning it all but not in his final four, so that's impressive.

Can we just play this game again in 2 weeks on a neutral field and call it the superbowl. Might as well, no one is even close to these two teams.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Nov 4, 2007 -> 03:09 PM) I'm looking forward to a spirited matchup with EA Sports. Well they already beat USU this exhibition season, good luck.

Peterson is a freakin joke.

Only 121, IU? Pretty awful.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Nov 4, 2007 -> 01:05 PM) As have I. With Ronnie Brown going down for me, having to start Fred Taylor(Caddy Williams went down for me, and Maroney sucks), Evans has really stepped up for me the last few weeks. Though I haven't needed it this year, it's nice to have someone produce besides Tom Brady for my team.

Hoyt Wilhelm reference thrown out in the Vikings game.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Nov 4, 2007 -> 12:58 PM) So I guess Lee Evans isn't dead. Thankfully I've started him these last two weeks.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Nov 4, 2007 -> 12:09 PM) Bulls***. He performed fine. When he wasn't hitting in the first half, the team was still winning and his crappy at-bats weren't hurting the team a whole lot and his defense more than made up for his woes at the plate. His first half of 2006 defensively was better than amazing. In the second half, he continued to play strong defense as his bat picked up. That's funny you mention "the team was trying to repeat as a winner", yet you haven't pointed out why Brian Anderson was a detriment to this cause. As Anderson's bat picked up, Ozzie thought it necessary to play a utility infielder in CF. If Ozzie wanted the team to repeat as a winner, he would've left Anderson out there, as Mackowiak's defensive miscues cost the Sox multiple second half games. So appparently 'making a point' took precedence over trying to "repeat as a winner". Yup. I can't believe I'm still arguing Brian Anderson crap but as poor as he was with the stick at the beginning of 06, he gave us the best chance to win in center and it wasn't even close.

I'd love to land Damon. I'll take Burrell as well but I'd be so freakin happy to land a legit leadoff hitter with out trading away one of our pitchers.

QUOTE(Jimbo's Drinker @ Nov 4, 2007 -> 03:29 AM) keep doubting ku...i like it. we are good, trust me on that You guys are good, no doubt, I just think Mizzou is beyond good. Being doubted is fun though, so I'll keep doubting you.

I think Mizzou will blast KU, sorry Jimbo. I'm really starting to think that Oregon is the best team in the nation, seriously.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 4, 2007 -> 12:15 AM) 2kSports Invite opens the season Monday. I know you're the same way as me B>W but I'm so excited for monday. I can't explain to you how much I missed college basketball.

God, I missed that...

Headed to the arena, FINALLY. I couldn't care less that it's an exhibition, I'm so excited. YAY
