They should practice bunting more...

The silly thread names are getting outta hand...

QUOTE(DBAH0 @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 06:48 AM) G spots Anyways, anybody see Brand play??

Worst baseball movie ever? That one with one of the guys from friends and a monkey?

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 05:24 PM) I believe you recall wrong. He called a press conference to say he wouldn't have any interest...though he was never even contacted for the joke. Well, from what I remember, he was top choice by media and fans, many of which were apalled that he wasn't interested. Then he said he wasn't interested, hadn't been contacted yet, and reupped, all of which occurred very early during the time illinois was conducting its search. Tough to say what the level of interest was, unless I'm missing something. Had the illinois AD contacted other coaches before crean said he wasn't interested and re-signed? Anyways, moot point. Funny thing about the possibility of weber going to marquette is that a lot of illinois fans think his situation at illinois is too good to leave for marquette while a lot of marquette fans would not even want him.

QUOTE(pierard @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 03:37 PM) It kills me too as a DePaul alum. I hear ya.

QUOTE(CWSGuy406 @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 02:40 PM) it's tough to assert that Marquette is a more popular destination than U of I is. I seem to recall illinois wanting crean pretty badly, and then crean reupping with marquette.

QUOTE(Jenksismyb**** @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 11:40 AM) He's stepping into a different league with a different level of coaching (which in turn makes that recruiting even more difficult). It's no big 11, but I've heard the league he's coming from ain't too shabby... QUOTE(pierard @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 11:46 AM) Right now, DePaul is trash. Agreed.

QUOTE(fathom @ Apr 2, 2008 -> 11:54 AM) I'll second the notion that I don't like these ridiculous titles for the game threads. I didn't mind it for spring training games. One HUGE plus, for me, is the inclusion of what channel the game will be on. I hope all game threads provide that information along with the time, pitching matchups and lineup because I usually come on here for info before a game.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Apr 1, 2008 -> 10:42 PM) Not when you're seen as the only major program(sorry DePaul) by many in one of the richest basketball states out there.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 27, 2008 -> 03:04 AM) I have that beat. For now, I'm just going to say the last 2 months I've been as dumb as anyone could possibly be. Too many stories to tell. I didn't go to the hospital until about 13 hours later. Thankfully the scar isn't too noticeable. Did you lose an eye or something?

Long story short...14 stitches above my left eyebrow, horizontally...

I better get mine...

Birmingham Barons-inspired retro Air Jordan I "opening day pack" shoes...

In honor of fathom, nobody cares about your brackets...

She does look like she goes to u of i...

The amount of reaching is laughable...

That's too bad. I subscribe to the trib and I liked being able to open up to the 2nd page and read news about the whole league. His trade scenarios were ridiculous but he did pack a lot of info into the page. This undoubtedly means NBA coverage in the trib will be severely cut down. You can get way more info online, but there's nothing like opening up the paper in the morning.

PANIC!!!

QUOTE(elrockinMT @ Mar 12, 2008 -> 04:48 PM) I'd wait till the end of the season and if we don't win this thing you have to know items will be cheaper. I've randomly seen Konerko, Thome, and Dye ones at different discount stores like tj maxx, marshalls, ans aj wright for like 7 bucks. The black tees with the name and number on the back like the jersey...

I see nothing wrong with that statement...

Right now, Nash > deron. What he can do on offense outshines deron's clear advantage on D. He is that system. And deron is surrounded with better talent than CP3. Sorry guys... And that's not a knock on deron at all. He runs a team better than other premier PGs like Billups, Kidd, and Baron Davis.

Gotta see how Brand comes back from his injury first. It was a serious one... And CP3 and Nash are better PGs than deron williams...

What time is the draft?

flash's website usage isn't really our business, IMHO...
