Hall had no business at first, but come on, you all know how I feel about Ozzie but you can't blame him for THIS. Hall could have just as easily got hurt catching or otherwise, it's not like Ozzie had him in the X-Games here.

You can say a lot of things about Ozzie, but he can handle a clubhouse. Thus combined with A-Rod's talent, if we can get him, DO IT. People forget A.J. was thought of FAR worse as a clubhouse guy than A-Rod is before he got here (and has way less talent) and that is working out pretty well....

QUOTE(witesoxfan @ Mar 26, 2007 -> 03:17 AM) I got it right, but so did like everyone else. Hell no they didn't. I only got 3 of 4, and still control my own destiny in my 2 money pools and my pool with friends (who are not dumb). Almost everybody was a victim of either UNC, Texas A&M, Memphis, or Kansas (or in my case, Oregon and their ice cold 3 point shot yesterday). So in other words, give yourself more credit sir.

Should be the best Final Four in years. Any of these 4 teams could win 2 games or no games, and I think every game will be very close.

QUOTE(He_Gawn @ Mar 26, 2007 -> 07:03 AM) Well maybe since they were the number 1 overall seed they got rewarded? Whats the big deal, you hate Florida, we get it. Well if they win this Final Four, I'll give my props, because these 4 teams are all great, great teams. And the only player I hate on Florida is Noah, he's an absolute prick. He's more annoying than any player I've ever even seen on Duke.

93, which will be good enough to win a division that won't turn out quite as good as everybody thinks.

QUOTE(Rowand44 @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 05:17 PM) What exactly do you have against Florida? Cause you certainly underrated their football team like your doing with their basketball team right now. Their football team was mediocre all year and escaped with victories in most of their games, then picked a great time to play out of their minds. The basketball team had the easiest bracket I've ever seen to get to the Final Four. I don't have anything against their teams as much as I do how effin lucky they are (last years hoops team not withstanding, they earned their keep).

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 09:34 PM) You know what, you aren't even worth it on second thought. Awww come on!! The post full of false personal attacks because it's the refs and Hoya fans fault your team went 1 for 20 and forgot how to go inside would have been MUCH more fun.

Russell isn't ready, one day people will catch on to that idea. Haeger going down is a bummer though, Floyd to the bullpen.....

DaJuan Porter cost me 4 for 4, but i'm one of the few people that has tOSu over UCLA in the finals, so I can still catch up.

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 06:28 PM) Congrats guys, you got your wish, refs gave GTown another game. Dumbest post in board history. Did you see the FT totals, or the game, or the fact that UNC missed 19 out of 20 shots. UNC needs a mirror to see why they lost. And please go somewhere else with your whining BS, I'm sorry about the mascot but other than that, you won it all 2 years ago and you'll bring in a bunch more great recruits to replace the lost guys to the NBA. In other news, G-Town saved my bracket for now. QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 06:53 PM) Pretty amazing huh? 35 free throws for UNC in the first 30 minutes of the game then ZILCH for the final 10 minutes. GT's whiny fans finally got their way. Wish nothing but the worst for that entire program. Watch the tape, you guys stopped going inside at the point where the free throws stopped. Not a coincidence, the refs called every inside shot by UNC a foul on the Hoyas, and it would have continued had UNC not all of a sudden settled for jump shots.

Giving Ozzie 2 toys like Pods and Erstad will turn out to be the worst move KW has ever made as GM I think. Wow.

They are playing nowhere near the level of last year. They struggled a lot in as weak a region as there has been in years. Good luck to them with UCLA, but I think they are in trouble.

QUOTE(GoGoWhiteSox! @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 01:40 PM) Yeah Danks def deserved the 5th spot over Gavin Floyd, but why isn't anyone big on Adam Russel!! He pitched great all spring. Because Russell has pitched a total of 55 innings above class a, and none in aaa. I love how everybody points to hoping we're not rushing Danks, yet pine for Russell. (And I'm not picking on you btw, just the posters in general. Welcome to the site!! )

Oregon got me, but I'm still ok if Georgetown wins here. Gotta have that though.

Florida is toast now that they aren't in that ridiculously easy bracket. They are fortunate that only half of the Oregon guards showed up, and that Humphrey and Green shot it that well. Ah well, this was my upset region anyways. No fun to pick all chalk. UCLA gets their shot at revenge now, and I like their chances now that Afflalo woke up and that they beat a team better than Florida last game.

Let's not keep this to the police, this is Chicago. If you trust ANYBODY in power, such as the police, detectives, and politicians....that's your problem. It's a wonderful city and beautiful on the surface, but the corruption is at a point where I doubt you could ever fix it.

I don't think this is significant because I don't see any way in hell there are enough votes to override the veto. However it does send a message, if nothing else. Of course, it's a message to deaf ears. As for this war.....it's already lost, but by the politicians and not the troops. The President, Army Generals, Congress, everybody is at fault.....the prez for starting a stupid war, and then it trickles on down since we still could have won this war even though it should have never happened.

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 25, 2007 -> 02:03 AM) or any of the other shots his teams have missed while they are losing in the elite 8 every time. Theres something to it, and if you dont like it, dont pay attention to it. Yeah you don't go 0-4 in the elite 8, with all 4 losses being close games (last night was his first elite 8 loss by more than 8, and the score was not indicitive of how close it was) on accident.

BIG PROPS to everybody in this. I'm in 1st place in every facebook pool with 100 people or less I entered, and I'm in 9th in a group of 558 people, while being in the 97th percentile of the nation in brackets. Yet in our little 60 person pool, I'm only tied for 6th (90th percentile). Just proves yet again how much smarter White Sox fans are than everybody else. /PSA

QUOTE(RockRaines @ Mar 24, 2007 -> 09:34 PM) Also the Pac-10 is making a great case for the top conf in the country. Oregon, USC, UCLA, wow. That's because it was the best league all year, but nobody would admit it since the games are played too late at night *rolls eyes*.

He'll be fine. All we want is a .500 ish record and an ERA below 5. He can do it. Congrats Danks and I'm glad we made this decision.

This game was SUCH an easy pick when you combine the fact that he's called "Elite 8 Bill" for reason and the fact that UCLA is (1) a better team and (2) playing it in Cali where they never lose. That was as tenacious and physical a college game as i've seen in years though.

2 for 2 today, with my title game contenders moving on, and got 7 of the elite 8 right. I have a great shot at REAL big money here .

If Ohio St. shows up the next 2 like they did today, they are taking the trophy. I'm just not sure if they are going to or not.
