Two days in a row now that I have not been able to sleep at all, fantastic.

JOOOOEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE CREDEEEE

QUOTE(IlliniKrush @ Jan 16, 2007 -> 11:42 PM) Because everyone was standing, blocking much of the court from the traditional view. It wasn't bad most of the time but yes I'm sure that was the reason. Still those angles were very annoying.

In other news, Air Force just dropped a game to a bad Utah team. Terrible loss there.

QUOTE(greasywheels121 @ Jan 15, 2007 -> 10:50 AM) My favorite random ESPN show is Madden Nation. I haven't seen any episodes of this second season (I need to find a random marathon or something), but I randomly saw the first season in the middle of the night this last year. ^^^

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 16, 2007 -> 10:55 PM) I was almost hoping Texas would come back down and hit a 2. Ditto.

OH. MY. GOD

ESPN is using ridiculous camera angles. Durant is good...

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Jan 16, 2007 -> 10:11 PM) Very entertaining game in Stillwater. This game is unbelievable. Triple OT...

Very entertaining game in Stillwater.

Gonzaga's 30 game conference win streak is gone.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jan 15, 2007 -> 11:36 PM) The Sox play the Rockies on February 28th. You know, right when I posted that, I thought to myself "I bet they play their first game in February." And wouldn't you know, if someone were to call me out on it, I would have guessed it to be you.

QUOTE(Tony82087 @ Jan 15, 2007 -> 11:25 PM) So, when the f*** are we going to start playing ball again. God I hate January. March, we will starting playing games in March.

SIU beats Drake 72 to 62 despite one of our worst defensive efforts of the year. Anyways, Josh Bone comes in off the bench and adds 10 points for us tonight. Josh after not playing for many games cause he needed to get back into game shape after his injury is now earning some minutes and providing a spark off our bench. It now seems that we finally have a legit scoring option off the bench which we just have not had this season. Not only that but he made such a huge difference against Drake's zone. We were doing absolutely nothing against their zone until he came off the bench and he nailed 2 quick 3's and started expanding the zone more. He can be a huge difference maker for this team, I'm very excited that he decided to play this year. Also, Creighton loses to WSU tonight, back to a 3 way tie atop the Valley with two others a half game behind(tied in loss column).

Nice to see that SIU now has a win against a top 25 team.

Aaron Brooks sinks a game winning shot to give Oregon a win on the road against a very overrated Arizona team.

QUOTE(CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Jan 14, 2007 -> 06:00 PM) Explain it to me a little more clearly. Are you referring to letting Magglio go? If so Magglio was injured . It wasn't as much fiscal responsibilty as it was common sense. We signed Dye , AJ, Tadahito, and EL Duque all veterans who'd proven they were good players but had recent question marks. Dye had injuries , AJ was a troublemaker , El Duque was aging and injured and Gooch never played a day of major league baseball. I'm probably not remembering off the top of my head the other signings of other key players that led to the Championship. Right now its the exact opposite. We are not signing the players who brought us the ring. Buerhle and Crede look like goners for sure . I'm holding out some hope that the Sox can sign JD. Kenny knows this fiscal responsiblity plan is all contingent on the development and a fairly quick development of these young pitchers. Also someone explain to me how a guy who built a World Champ trading away our future because after all prospects are just prospects and look damn smart doing it ,can now put all his faith in a boatload of prospects. I am not advocating signing mediocrity for rich long term contracts but if the market has changed and 9 out of 10 GMs give pitchers more then 3 year contracts how can we compete if we don't give out contracts commensurate with the rest of baseball. Who will want to sign with us ? I am forever grateful for the World Championship but that doesnt mean that Kenny will work that magic again. When you fail to pull the rabbit out of the hat the rabbit ends up in the cellar. I hope Kenny can still work his mojo when he's completely changed his M.O. Trading Carlos Lee allowed us to sign most of those guys as we dumped a lot of salary with that trade.

QUOTE(knightni @ Jan 13, 2007 -> 11:10 PM) Has Oden been able to use his right hand yet? He can use it, he just doesn't have full range of motion in it. He can still shoot jump hooks and such with it. He's still using his left for ft's if that's what you're asking.

I really enjoyed the one season of Playmakers.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jan 13, 2007 -> 10:08 PM) For those of us sitting in windowless basement offices for the past 10 hours monitoring PBP online, what's the wow for? Saints had the ball with about 4 minutes left, ran a pitch to Reggie and it was fumbled. Eagles jumped on it. Eagles in trouble though now, 4th and 15. Eagles punt it away, 1:48 left, Saints ball. First down Saints. Barring something insane happening, game over.

Wow...

Bradley is about to beat Indiana State and that's going to make Creighton the last remaining one loss team in the Valley, everyone else has at least 2 losses. The league race is just going to be insane.

Huge day for the Salukis today. We just ran Mo State off the court, Falker was the man again. Josh Bone also chipped in 8 which was nice to see. Suddenly our W over Va Tech looks pretty damn good.
