QUOTE(dasox24 @ Oct 15, 2007 -> 01:12 AM) Yeah, but UT had to play Ohio St. to get to the Elite 8, and they only lost by 1 to the runner-ups. If Ramar Smith hadn't been a stupid freshman (trying to take it the hoop with a few seconds left) and had given the ball to Lofton, UT would have likely won that game with the most clutch shooter in college basketball taking that final shot. Then, I'm 100% confident they would have beaten Memphis again and made it to at least the Final 4. The vols folded like the cheap suit they were. And they were beaten by an even more clutch player. Memphis was an overall better team, talent-wise.

QUOTE(southsideirish71 @ Oct 17, 2007 -> 11:01 AM) Well I guess the Whitesox are filled with thoughtful, well-balanced men then because they have been preaching this approach to Boras and the highway robbery of agents for a while now. KW isnt quite as well-balanced but he has at least tried to take a stand against outrageous contracts and Boras as a person. Of course he is sitll extremely stubborn and has made bad deals because of his arrogant attitude, but at least he doesnt overpay.

QUOTE(Chombi and the Fungi @ Oct 17, 2007 -> 12:27 PM) Clement is uselss here. We just re-signed AJ and have Hall under contract. ? AJP is in full decline and is getting old. Hall will be gone. We need someone to be able to step in either next season or the one after that.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Oct 15, 2007 -> 01:33 PM) I agree with everything you said here. Still, I'm glad I got to see that right field porch in Tiger Stadium before they stopped playing there. Hell yeah, that stadium was awesome. Alot like old Comiskey.

Too bad Lee Evans hasnt done s*** this year. Why is that exactly? Its killing my fantasy team.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Oct 16, 2007 -> 09:05 PM) I'm a huge Big Ten fan and I will say with no doubt whatsoever that the SEC, top to bottom, is the best football conference in the country. Their depth is second to none, whether they have a team competing for the NC or not. So there's one dissenter Im not saying they arent better right now. But this SEC hype is complete bulls***. They are not the end all be all football conference.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Oct 16, 2007 -> 02:57 PM) The SEC is a superior league due to the low academic standards leaguewide at the schools, and the Big 10 has it's problems due to the high academic standards leaguewide at the schools. I thought everybody knew this, they don't call the SEC "skip every class" for nothing, and it's a known fact that Big 10 schools are pretty good academically for the most part. The SEC just has a lot more kids to choose from than the Big 10 due to academic things. Superior league how? Have you checked the Big Ten record against them? * The Big Ten was 2-1 vs. the SEC in this past season's bowl games. * The Big Ten is 8-6 vs. the SEC in bowl games over the last five years * The Big Ten is 13-13 vs. the SEC in bowl games over the last decade. * Over the last nine years of Bowl Championship Series games, the Big Ten leads all conferences with 15 berths while ranking second with eight victories. The SEC tops all leagues with nine wins and ranks second to the Big Ten with 13 appearances. * In the last 10 years the Big Ten has produced two national champions compared to three for the SEC. * In the last 15 years the Big Ten has produced five Heisman Trophy winners, more than any other conference. Over that same time span, the SEC has claimed one Heisman. * While the SEC ranked first among various recruiting rankings, the Big Ten ranked second or third nationally with four to five programs rated among the top 25 recruiting classes. * The Big Ten has a history of developing players - the most recent Heisman Trophy winner, Troy Smith, was one of the last players to receive a scholarship from Ohio State. * The Big Ten has slightly less than 300 players in the NFL while the SEC has slightly more than 300; Sixteen former Big Ten players earned Super Bowl rings with the Indianapolis Colts earlier this month. I have yet to find out why everyone is brainwashed that the SEC is this great football conference. The only people who believe that are fans of the SEC.

QUOTE(Jenks Heat @ Oct 16, 2007 -> 10:45 AM) Michigan 35 Illinois 13 Sorry, I actually like Zook bringing an SEC flavor to the Big 10 which will help in the next couple of years. what exactly is the SEC flavor he is bringing?

QUOTE(NorthSideSox72 @ Oct 13, 2007 -> 11:33 AM) I've hung around a Tigers board on occasion. There are some smart posters in there. Also, my favorite team site (non-Sox) used to be Bat Girl. People here will probably hate me for that. Anyway, I thought she was bloody hilarious. But I guess she is sort of retired now. Bat girl was freakin awesome. i left her a good bye message when she stopped.

Nuke!!! Hope to hear from you soon bud. Ive been reading things on the EPP's that have been really threatening our troops, wanted to know if you had any interaction with insurgents using those weapons

QUOTE(AssHatSoxFan @ Oct 15, 2007 -> 02:53 PM) SUIT UP! Flight Suit up!!

Im going as Top Gun Barney Stinson from how I met your mother

Great post by jenks. Penn St did make adjustments, but they should have forseen it before the game. They havent exactly been the best coached bunch the last several years. OSU will be ready for those type of wrinkles I hope, with the best coach in the big ten at the helm I hope that preparation wouldnt be an issue.

Theres actually a huge movement on losing weight without doing actual cardio work and only focusing on weight resistance. Of course I do not follow that trend. If you are looking to go for a six pack or something of the sort, make sure alot of core strength is your focus, lower back abs, etc. I would check out some of the swiss ball routines that focus on upper body as well as core strength.

Depends if you want to gain size, or slim down and be toned and lean. There are basically 2 schools of thought on which way to go. Alot of people nowadays are focusing on being more lean and having greater flexibility. Which one is it that you want to drive towards?

QUOTE(Gregory Pratt @ Oct 14, 2007 -> 11:20 AM) If they hadn't acquired Iguchi they'd have gotten someone else, I'm sure, but their production out of second base had little to do with it, compared to their pitching and the hitting and the Mets collapsing, more than anything. Besides that, the point -- "That Iguchi deal worked out well for them" -- re: Crede/"They won't trade for an injury from the White Sox again" is weak because the Iguchi deal was more than likely a big makeup deal and because Tadahito Iguchi doesn't have half the issues Freddy Garcia and Crede do. Pat Gillick would deserve to lose his job if he traded anything significant for Joe Crede, especially Burrell. They've been looking to unload Burrell for ANYTHING the past few seasons.

at least we found out that we have a decent rookie corner.

QUOTE(BearSox @ Oct 13, 2007 -> 07:03 PM) my dream but highly unlikely lineup for next season: 1. Figgins, CF 2. Renteria, SS 3. Thome, DH 4. Konerko, 1B 5. Jermaine Dye, RF 6. Pat Burrell, LF 7. A.J. Pierzynski, C 8. Josh Fields, 3B 9. Danny Richar, 2 Not bad at all. I actually like this one: (even more unlikely) 1. Figgins 3B 2. Furcal SS 3. Thome DH 4. Kong 1B 5. Burell RF 6. FIelds LF 7. Rowand CF 8. AJP C 9 Richar 2B I know it wouldnt happen because we wont trade JD, but a man can hope.

QUOTE(southsider2k5 @ Oct 13, 2007 -> 04:42 PM) NO one in Cleveland bugs me as much as the guy with the drum... Nobody in their right mind likes the drum guy, even many indians fans i spoke with at the Jake said its damn annoying.

SO, uh yeah go Bucks. I cant believe that we graduated 8 first team all big ten players and are back in the #1 slot. I have said it over and over that I dont think that they are even a top 5 team in the country, but I guess we will see.

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Oct 13, 2007 -> 08:10 PM) I officially give up on college football this year. As long as Illinois gets their 7 or 8 wins and makes a bowl, I'm happy. This season is just too bizarre. Congrats to Iowa, they played a great strategy against the option and Illinois otherwise couldn't get out of it's own way. Did all of your hopes and dreams for this season come crashing down due to the loss by Illinois? If Cal loses say hello to your #1 ranked buckeyes for the second straight season.

QUOTE(Buehrle>Wood @ Oct 13, 2007 -> 03:56 PM) I wasn't complaining, hence the smiley face. It's fun to see them get so much hate. You know, I didnt even look to see who was posting. And a good easy healthy win by the Buckeyes today. I truly am excited about watching Saine run behind the future block O in the next few years.
