QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Dec 15, 2006 -> 01:29 PM) The bottom line determines if a team is cheap, not individual players. They can't resign everyone because we aren't the Yankees and can't afford a $150 million payroll. If they are paying out what they take in, they aren't cheap. Nor does an article mean we aren't re-signing anyone.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Dec 15, 2006 -> 12:04 PM) Meh, you can have it. I am the only one who is not on the JJ's bandwagon? Give me a deli sandwich anyday for my money. You're a communist.

No.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Dec 15, 2006 -> 01:42 AM) Well according to Ken Rosenthal Vernon Wells is going to end up accepting the $126M contract extension the Blue Jays offered him. He'll get an opt out clause and a no-trade as well. This certainly is an interesting turn of events. Very interesting.

I really wonder how much money I've spent on Jimmy Johns the last year and a half since I've been down at school.

QUOTE(Brian @ Dec 13, 2006 -> 10:36 PM) No SIU vs. Central Michigan? Weak! Tis the moms bday. My parents are going to hate me enough as it is for going to all of these games, I have to hang out with my mom on the bday.

So my winter break has become completely scheduled around the College Basketball games that I'm going to. SIU @ IU this sunday, SIU vs. Wichita State on New Years day, tOSU @ Illinois on the 6th and tOSU @ Wisc on the 9th.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Dec 13, 2006 -> 09:58 AM) The team holds a $5M option for the 2008 season, so if Juan has an above average season in 2007 that option will likely be picked up. And you are correct Juan fired Scott Boras in 2003. I some how missed that when looking up his contract.

QUOTE(nitetrain8601 @ Dec 13, 2006 -> 07:07 AM) My question is what are we going to do with Uribe? Isn't he a FA at the end of the year? Also his agent is Scott Boras IIRC. How much do we overpay for him? He is indeed a fa after this season but his agent is no longer Scott Boras. He fired Boras before he signed his first contract extension here.

I am one lucky SOB. My history teacher gave us 8 essay questions that could possibly be on our final, but only 3 would actually be on there and we'd have to choose one to write about(essay question is half the final). So anyways, I knew 2 of them completely and the other 6 I didn't know at all. Both of the questions I knew ended up being on the final.

QUOTE(heirdog @ Dec 12, 2006 -> 02:11 PM) Crede is not overrated, he is underrated...did not win Gold Glove?!? Instead he won the Silver Slugger.

Have a good one

Tough crowd. It's certainly not the dunk of the year but it was a pretty impressive dunk and you definitely don't see something like that 4 times a night. He got up extremely high, caught it with one hand and slammed it down with authority. I was impressed.

This is a dunk from Saturday's game by Courtney Lee, the superstar for WKU. Definitely worth a watch. http://www.hilltopperhaven.com/video/leedunk2.wmv

I don't understand weather, it's around 60 degrees here today.

Coaches poll is out: We some how managed to get less votes than last week Wichita State up to number 10, Oregon and Clemson in at 24 and 25, Cuse and Maryland out.

Happy bday Goldy

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 11:36 PM) Drew Brees came into the game tonight wiht 3649 passing yards. If I recall correctly, he added 383 to that tonight. That gives him 4032 on the season. He is therefore 1052 yards behind Dan Marino's single season record. If Brees averages 351 yards passing/game for the last 3 games of the season, he will break that record. So far, he is averaging 310 yards passing per game. Boo.

QUOTE(Brian @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 10:07 PM) I have two Cub hats, so I can poop in one and cover it up with the other. P.S. I do not have two Cub hats. Just a joke. And a bad one.

QUOTE(Texsox @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 09:26 PM) Just wondering how many people here have a cap from another mlb team besides the Sox. I honestly think the last non Sox cap I've owned was a Cleveland Indians cap from when I was 9 and played on the Indians Little League Team. Not me.

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 07:17 PM) It's going to be funny when the Bears lose their first playoff game this year. I'd laugh, I highly doubt that happens though.

It's going to be funny when the Cowboys lose their first playoff game this year.

QUOTE(whitesox1976 @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 06:16 PM) Trading Vazquez we would be getting rid of a medicore pitcher. Same as Garland, no?

Man, Vince Young sucks at football.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Dec 10, 2006 -> 04:02 PM) The Chargers will win the superbowl, they are scary. Fixed. I honestly only see one team with a chance to beat them and that's the Bears if they get decent play out of the quarterback position.
