QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Mar 19, 2013 -> 04:38 PM) Yeah, that seems to extend beyond the reach of the First Amendment. You can't threaten someone's livelihood, even if it's over the internet. Twitter though, jesus. This case is all sorts of f***ed

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 19, 2013 -> 04:08 PM) Last ball of the inning spanked by Mesoroco. Ramirez with an amazing play. Sloppy game so far, already 3 errors (Fraser/Heisey/Dunn). That catcher's killing the ball, hitting around .450 with 10 RBI's this spring but still will be in the minors due to Hanigan getting the starting nod. Can you get your avatar to make out? Thanks

QUOTE (flavum @ Mar 19, 2013 -> 04:01 PM) I guess in Danks' defense, it may be a lively ballpark. I'd still like to know his velocity, and what he has to say after the game. When I watched him last he had no movement on his FB. He usually had that kind of late "bounce" and now he isnt getting that.

QUOTE (caulfield12 @ Mar 19, 2013 -> 03:34 PM) Brantley says Danks doesn't look like his mechanics are right. Says he's hesitant, only has thrown one ball with conviction in this inning...he was shaking his head (Danks), Brantley inferring maybe something is bothering him a bit. Already 3 runs given up...Beckham messed up a sure-fire DP and it led directly to the first two runs scoring. His grip has been f***ed up this entire ST.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 07:58 PM) Hell, think about how many of these still happen and aren't reported. Or happen and the victim is too scarred to report anything. These small "football" towns self-police these things as well. We will see these "adults" get in trouble very shortly for covering this s*** up.

So Gonzaga has only made it as far as the elite 8 once? Yeah, got you going out early now boys.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 10:40 PM) So you guys have the big ten as 75% of the final four? I'll take it, I just read that and say...wait... I was actually pretty much joking. I have Kansas and Lou going to the final 4 in most of mine, IU as well. The West is so wide open.

Before social media and camera phones just think about how many of these happened in small towns and were never reported.

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 03:22 PM) LOL. So no matter what happens, you can say "I HAD THAT!" The end up being very similar, but I have 2 work ones, 2 on a HUGE pool through friends, and 2 in the gym pool.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 02:41 PM) Rock, Do you have Wisconsin beating the Zags or OSU? I actually think OSU has a pretty nice draw. I have like 6 brackets. I have Wisconsin knocking them out in at least one. Wisconsin has been a lock to get to the sweet 16 the last few years but I think people always have them out right away.

This thread is likely dead but I wanted to add it made me super sad yesterday to see that Thad couldnt even make it up the ladder to cut down the net. Just awful.

QUOTE (Dick Allen @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 02:27 PM) Since the demise of the newspaper business, many former professional journalists are now bloggers. I guess the real question is why make it up? If it's just for the hits, I suppose that's a legit reason, but I would suspect those people won't be hitting that anymore. He said he had a source. Thats all it takes nowadays. Online "journalism" is always sketchy.

MSU Michigan IU OSU

QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 01:53 PM) Anyone who gives two s***s about journalism? EDIT: I've said all I can say, and at this point Badger is just arguing stupid points solely for the purpose of arguing (lawyer, etc.). Have fun, gents. Since when are blogs journalists? My dog could start a blog.

QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 18, 2013 -> 01:41 PM) In this context, when you say "a source close to the situation confirmed that Derrick Rose will play Monday" (or whatever it was until it was edited), you are flat out lying. There is no other way to put it. who cares?

I actually really like it on the top. Its where the mute button was on the old old blackberry.

LOL, if that info made you mad I hope nobody follows college recruiting.

I have ILL and Minny going out in round of 64

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 17, 2013 -> 06:52 PM) That 30 for 30 tonight looks awesome Best part has been the highlights of the Houston team. Drexler, wow.

Boom. Champs.

Barker for Leddy has to be one of the best rapings we've ever committed.

Ill keep this thread alive as well since I am the only one not out tonight

Cuse scares the s*** out of me. So much length on defense.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Mar 16, 2013 -> 06:54 PM) Well Rock I probably wont post tomorrow because Im about to go out and who knows when Ill be able minded again. So good luck. I got nothing against the Buckeyes and Wisconsin plays them better than MSU, so who knows what happens. Hopefully Wisconsin gets a 4 seed in the NCAA, a Big 10 Tourney would just be icing. Guess that should have gone in big 10 tournament thread, oh well. We want revenge so I hope that's enough. Here's hoping for health for both teams regardless of outcomes.
