QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 16, 2006 -> 12:58 PM) According to my source, this Vasquez guy isn't a prospect at all. The same source that said Tracey would never pitch for the Sox again before he got called up? I'm just playin wit ya, but his number do seem to indicate otherwise, though I like to see pitchers pitch before I make any choices and I have not seen him pitch before.

I really wanted to keep Neal so this trade irks me a bit. That being said, we got two good arms in exchange for one. And if Kenny's trade history is an indication then it wouldn't shock me to see one of these guys become a pretty solid reliever for us next season. Wait and see is the best approach here, though I'm sad to see Neal go as I still think he's a good reliever and will dominate the National League.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 09:07 PM) Winthrop is a heck of a team. They are the unanimous pick for their conference and should be in the tourney with possibly a 12-13 seed. They have a couple of scorers that can go off in any game and a couple of legit big men. I was expecting a close game and wouldn't have been completely suprised with a loss, they are a very dangerous team. But man Tyler is something else. Yeup, Winthrop has one hell of a team. I agree, expect them to be in the tourny at around a 12 or 13. I'm sorry but as for Kansas, lol.

I'm interested tonight to see how close Winthrop can play with the Tar Heels.

QUOTE(fathom @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 09:30 AM) If we turn around and trade Anderson for an average prospect, that makes the Vazquez for Young trade turn from horrible to one of the worst in the franchise's history. It's honestly not a bad trade at all yet. We have to see what one of our starters turns into but the Vaz deal is what right now is allowing us to sit pretty this offseason. We have to wait and see what we net but that deal could turn out to be very good.

QUOTE(SnB @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 03:03 PM) that's cause drunk driving isn't a rating on the game. Well who would be better in that category: Mcbride or Tatum?

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 03:19 PM) I'm probably the person on here who has some of the most reasonable expectations when it comes to BA,\ Doesn't everyone feel that way about their own expectations?

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 02:03 PM) What about the Marquette trio? And Lazar Hayward? Dom is an 83, Mcneal is an 81 and Matthews is a 77. And Hayward is a 70. Dom is one of the better rated pg's in the whole game. The ratings overall are pretty low as the best players in the game are only 92's(Noah, Big Baby and Fazekas). QUOTE(chimpy2121 @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 02:07 PM) Hey man, can I get some ratings for Al Thorton (12), Toney Douglas (23), Jason Rich (25), and Isiah Swann (3)? Thorton is an 84, Douglas is an 80, Rich is a 72 and Swann is a 77.

QUOTE(SnB @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 01:54 PM) this will pretty much be my thanksgiving break. I'm pumped. Am I going to have to kick your ass in this game as well? PS Young and Tatum are rated better than every Illini player in the game.

QUOTE(klaus kinski @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 01:25 PM) Sign Pierre-keep BA as 4th OF and late inning defense You want to sign Pierre for 10 mill a year?

QUOTE(SoxFan101 @ Nov 15, 2006 -> 02:05 AM) Well I think the Rangers hitting coach had a much larger effect on him than Michael Young and the Cubs have a pretty generous hitting park as well. And if he can remain his mechanics from last season he should be fine. I disagree with this big time. Derosa basically mimicked every move of Young's at the plate, Michael had a huge effect on hm.

My step brother has a small army going to get him like 8 of these thursday night. He's just selling them as well, and he's going to cut me in on some of the profit, yay me.

Well during the Gonzaga game I got to hear my very first OH FENSE of the year, that was nice.

Bumpity bump. Game comes out on Monday and I will be getting it on Monday. I honestly can not wait as I absolutely love this franchise. I actually just downloaded all the player rankings so if anyone wants to know any just ask. This is the link I got 'em from http://2ksports.com/forums/showthread.php?t=98101 . Problem is that you have to be registered with the other forum to download. Anyone else excited for this game or am I the only one ?

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Nov 14, 2006 -> 11:35 PM) Well they covered the 10, so I'm happy Sad part?? Part of why I told you this game would not be won, no way, by UNI, is I figured the best UNI could do is keep it really close, then see the refs do that to them late. Not a surprise to me at all. Well UNI played like crap for a while in the 2nd half as well, the refs helped but UNI seemingly forgot how to catch a rebound. UNI is going to have a solid season but Washington is just lucky that they didn't play one of the top 4 valley teams.

LOL, the last 5 minutes of this game was just horribly officiated, yeesh. Good effort Panthers, couldn't beat the Huskies and the refs.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Nov 14, 2006 -> 11:28 PM) Welcome to NCAA Basketball, pre March. They do all they can to help the big dawgs (haha, get it? :|) from November through February, then in March, help out the mid majors at all costs. I love it. It's just ridiculous. It's been a very physical game all day long and all the sudden they just start calling touch fouls which makes UNI lose one of their best players. Washington is going to win this game because of it. Kind of sucks but oh well.

The refs are seriously taking this game out of UNI's hands. Calling a lot of touch fouls on UNI which got Washington in the bonus with like 9 minutes to go. Now they call a touch foul on Coleman that gets him fouled out of the game. Wow. UNI can't move at the moment.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Nov 14, 2006 -> 10:44 PM) Speaking of that, Butler does begin with a B. I think were onto something here. Bucknell Bison, Bradley Braves, Butler Bulldogs. Perfect.

Panthers up 3 at the half.

Butler beats IU.

UNI-Washington about to start. GO PANTHERS!!!!
