Wow, those Simpsons trailers are brutal. I'm still going to have to see it though. Spiderman 3 is the movie I can't wait for though.

QUOTE(Felix @ Feb 19, 2007 -> 11:29 AM) We're better than you at hockey... and football!!!!1 lol. As someone who watches Tollackson in person on just about a weekly basis, and has for the majority of the year, let me just say that he's not "a pretty darn good big man." He has his moments on offense (ripped Iowa apart), but the majority of the time he's a bumbly handed guy who can't rebound worth a lick. Then again, no one on this team can rebound, so in comparison, he looks okay. I'd also like to say that Tollackson didn't start against OSU for the simple reason that he can't really do anything to other big men. You guys definitely are, so you got me there, just this year in basketball you guys stink, that's where that comment came from. As for Tollackson, he's a big man who can score. That's why I threw him out there.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Feb 18, 2007 -> 04:44 AM) Kjust checking. Does it make you nervous to go against teams in the big ten who have 7 footers who can basically dominate the paint. I mean, it seemed to me like the thing missing in that game was a post player game, as good as SIU appears to be in that conference, I would really wonder what they would do against a Wisco, or an OSU with the height they will have in the tourney. To be honest, not really. Like I said, both our big are small height wise but both of them are really strong and really athletic so they'll be able to hold their own. We actually do have a real good post scorer in Falker, unfortunately he was in foul trouble all game, and we went completely small with another guard because of Butler's lack of size, that's not something we'd do against a bigger team, so you didn't exactly see our biggest team out there either. We've faced two big ten teams so far this season(if Minnesota counts) and we did a pretty good job against DJ and Tollackson who are both pretty darn good big men. Now, obviously everyone is going to be worried about a Greg Oden if it got to that point but our bigs can hold their own even against taller competition.

QUOTE(kyyle23 @ Feb 17, 2007 -> 09:09 PM) They are starting to get some of the bigger kids nowadays though. The Salukis 5 year run into the tournament has really given SIU better recruits. When they went to the sweet 16 in 2002 they were a much smaller team. Rolen Roberts was the center at 6' 6" Did you get a chance to watch our game today, my friend?

Hiccups after like 5 minutes drive me insane. I can't even imagine something like this.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Feb 17, 2007 -> 07:32 PM) now i havent seen much of SIU or Butler, but are both teams small or was it just the angle? Ya, both teams are small. Our bigs are strong and athletic though and they can keep up with bigger bigs because of that, but height wise we're definitely limited.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Feb 17, 2007 -> 03:08 PM) Justin is literally first row behind the SIll bench if i'm seeing this correctly, haha QUOTE(danman31 @ Feb 17, 2007 -> 03:11 PM) That's what he said. I don't know how he pulled that off. This may sound mean, but I mean it as a compliment: the atmosphere is like that of a sectional final or supersectional high school playoff game. Slightly smaller gym, crowd is really into it, student section knows it's the biggest home game of the year, it's good stuff. I wasn't lying to you guys. Very, very good game between two very good basketball teams. I'm so damn happy that we found a way to win that one.

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Feb 17, 2007 -> 01:59 AM) let it play out. I don't think the Sox and Buehrle are done negotiating yet. Eh, I'm sure they're not done negotiating and it's not this article that has made me think that he's done here. I just can't see him coming back, I'm hope I'm wrong.

QUOTE(SnB @ Feb 16, 2007 -> 08:13 PM) I don't think our hats are all that terrible. But i did love the old ones. I have one of them and it's the only sox hat I'll wear. It's over 4 years old, never been washed and pretty much disgusts everyone. It's my baby. That thing needs to be shot and killed.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Feb 16, 2007 -> 09:57 AM) Dwight Howard wanted to raise the rim to 12 feet for a dunk in the Slam Dunk tomorrow night, but the NBA nixed it. Why?

QUOTE(ChiSoxLifer @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 05:17 PM) Now, if Wood was doing the towel throwing drill while in the hot tub, he could've dried himself off much better and prevented slippage. Prior is the master of the towel throw, Wood's the simulated game machine.

Lmao, wow.

QUOTE(Jimbo @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 01:56 PM) http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/powerranking...007&week=15 SIU 4 seed and moving up!!!!! They are going to kill Butler and get the 3 seed they deserve. If we can win @ Butler I really think we have a decent shot to get a protected seed. That'd be fantastic.

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Feb 15, 2007 -> 04:36 AM) After this latest incident, I highly, highly doubt it. Mental/emotional state of the team? Bye bye. Hell, i honestly wouldn't be absolutely shocked if we were to lose on Sunday. Ya, touche. I was about to leave for class when I posted that and for some reason that slipped my mind.

Duke needs to take a knee...

Depaul takes down Marquette.

This is an embarrassment.

Add Wichita State to the popped bubble teams. They go down by 4 to Drake.

Wow. Penn State has a 3 to beat OSU and just misses. Crazy game. In other news, Wiscy up 4 on Minny at half and Florida down 11 at half to Bama.

By far, the best video of all time.
