QUOTE(whitesoxin @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 11:49 AM) So I woke up and turn on the tv with it being 2-0 and runners on first and second....and nobody scores. Go back to bed.

Boo.

Cmon Widge, at least get this 3rd run in.

This is fun.

Mmmm, beautiful.

Nice start. Lets open this game up early.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 11:22 AM) Ok, I don't know how the Hell, I'm pulling this off, but it's currently 12:20 local time, I'm in the middle of an internet Cafe in the city of Korla, China, i have 4 large chinese Beers in me, and I've actually got Gameday open for Jose shooting for his 10th win, and I'm posting in the game thread. This is damn amazing. Kick some ass Jose! How's the trip?

QUOTE(Controlled Chaos @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 10:58 AM) Widger catching Count....that's new. Day game after a night game.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 01:14 AM) Exactly what I thought That makes three of us.

QUOTE(Kalapse @ Jun 29, 2006 -> 02:04 AM) Twins ^^^

It'll be a shame if Ramon Hernandez doesn't make the team.

Happy birthday you f***in mess.

The Knicks made a good pick.

QUOTE(BobDylan @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 07:10 PM) Cutters don't break as much as the 97 MPH pitch Jenks threw. There's no way it wasn't a slider. The gun MAY have been off, but it was a slider. The gun was quick but Jas is right, the first pitch he threw was a cutter when Morgan started to talk about it but the 2nd one, was a slider.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 09:04 PM) I think you're right Rowand44--offensively he's streaky, but he's playing tremendous defense again, and that makes him worth trotting out there even during his cold streaks. He's great at going to his left and right, has a cannon, and is excellent at turning the DP--I still like having him at SS over Cintron--not that you suggested that. Oh, I'm with you 100 percent. I can live with two defensive studs at the bottom of the order who might be streaky or have some growing pains. I like Alex a lot but as a bench player, not an everyday player.

QUOTE(illinilaw08 @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 09:04 PM) Well, we wont know until July 1st at the earliest. I'll have my fingers crossed until then Ditto.

QUOTE(illinilaw08 @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 09:02 PM) Agree mostly. I'm not thrilled with the Thomas pick, but Aldridge has always seemed soft to me and Thomas definitely plays with energy. Also, Chad Ford has been right on about most things he has said today, and according to him, the hot rumor among GMs has the Bulls dealing for KG. The Thomas pick could be a prelude to that. Right. I've heard that as well and that's why I should hold out on my disappointment cause I'd be thrilled with KG. I dislike Thomas so much though, so I'm hoping Mr. Ford is right.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 08:57 PM) Give Thornton the 9th tomorrow night if need be. Let Bobby rest it up. I'll agree with that.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 08:55 PM) Because offense is the only thing that counts. But anyway, Balkman won't be anything more than a role-player(which is fine for this draft). He's one of the best defenders, if not the best, defenders in the draft. He'll be able to come off the bench and shut down pretty much anyone else at the SF position, which isn't all too common in the NBA these days. Marcus Williams turns the ball way too much to be a point guard in the NBA and the only thing he'll steal will be lap-tops(Betcha never heard that one before ). I wouldn't take this guy anywhere in the first round. He did turn the ball over too much for my liking as well but I love how he controls a game. He also just has such a beautiful and soft touch, and he's easily the best passer in this draft. He'll be a great pg, no doubt in my mind.

Put me down as loving Memphis' draft.

QUOTE(chitownsportsfan @ Jun 28, 2006 -> 08:53 PM) Uribe is proving his value, it's about time. I'm a big fan of his, and was hoping for some more consitency, 'guess I'll have to settle for these hot streaks. You're never going to get consistancy out of Juan, this is exactly the type of player he is.

The Nets just got the steal of the draft.

Ugly but who cares. The bullpen continues to be awesome. Bobby needs a day off or two, he's pitched in 6 of 7 games now. And great clutch hitting by Ooooooooribe.

Absolutely pissed about Tyrus Like the Sefolosha pick though. P.S. The Knicks are still retarded.
