Why isn't anyone fighting for Kyle Orton?

There are better odds that the Cubs win the World Series this year than Oklahoma or Gonzaga make the Elite 8, take about 2 sucky ass frauds.

QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 03:58 PM) That's because everyone is blinded by the World Series title. Kenny can do no wrong anymore. Well to be fair, people are going to stand by the GM who built a team that ended nearly 9 decades of failure, as opposed to a guy who has a rep for being a b****y diva superstar. It may not be fair, but that's how the 2 look right now.

I think it's becoming clear that both parties are guilty of being assholes in certain respects, and we need to move on. The endless pissing matches on ESPN, these boards, sporstradio, and between the 2 men involved won't change the facts, which are both are wrong and this is sad and didn't need to happen.

Nobody should be amazed that a player gets into a school for football or basketball. EVERY SCHOOL IN AMERICA cheats to get players qualified to play sports, end of discussion.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 03:44 PM) He should have taken the high road over a month ago. Easy to say this now after having your ass handed to you publicly. Oh well, hopefully this is all over with now.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 01:58 PM) Its alright.....we will poison your corn in our Iowa conspiracy to take over the world. It will all start when Alford leads a team of Hawkeyes to the National Championship Coincidentally it will also be the day that Heads ends his life. Haha. Yeah my dislike for Iowa is purely based on a certain large group of their fanbase. It's nothing compared to my thoughts on tOSU and UM, I honestly can say I probably dislike those 2 schools more than even Duke basketball.

Again my dislike for Iowa, like the Cubs, doesn't indict the entire fan base. My own father is a Cubs fan (although mind you, one of the few that has a clue) and I don't hold that against him....for the most part.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 01:52 PM) Defense...defense...defense I am officially declaring myself wrong on MSU. They will not make noise in the NCAA's. The Illini just may. If our role players would show up every game, I'd agree. They are too damn inconsistent though. As for MSU, Izzo can't even work the magic this year. That team is too damn soft.

One of my best buds goes to Indiana, and for the most part (except the occasional old banner pointing) Indiana fans are cool. The only teams I dislike in the Big 10 are tOSU and UM (the favorable treatment and cheating they get away with is amazing) and Iowa (it's no coincidence so many Cubs fans are from that state).

#10 in both polls, I refuse to accept that I'm watching the #10 team in America. I love the Illini, but it's not possible.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 11:34 AM) Frank is a nice guy off the field, he just doesn't know when to shut his mouth. He always has to be the victim. I'm aware Frank is a nice guy off the field and Sammy isn't. But in terms of how they talk and what you see from them through the media, there is very little (if any) difference between the two.

QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 11:31 AM) At least he never corked a bat. Or deflated. There is no comparision between the 2 on the field. But off the field, they are both attention whore, lying idiots who don't know when to shut up or how to say the right thing.

The one thing I wish people would realize is abortion is a debate that goes beyond personal beliefs and whether or not the unborn are truly individual living people.

QUOTE(aboz56 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 11:20 AM) In related news, Frank Thomas is no longer a part of the Chicago White Sox. And personally, I couldn't be happier. Have fun on the DL big guy. No question, him being gone is great news for the Sox. I'll be thankful for every Jim Thome home run.

Never underestimate the power of stupid people in a large group (our government).

Kevin Towers would be the guy I'd most expect to defend Kenny....I'll tell you what, I'm not sure if they are right, but they might be the only 2 GM's in the game with any balls.

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 10:53 AM) I'd LOVE to see Kenny try to pull some s***... Love, love, love to... Frank could, and I pray would, bury Kenny's ass with scandle. Kenny's got some major skeletons in his closet. They each could bury each other with scandal. I would hope they aren't dumb enough to each kill each other's rep, but it wouldn't surprise me.

QUOTE(YASNY @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 09:04 AM) I do that stuff all the time. If I didn't do it, it would never get done. Would it make you made if I told you I'm 20 and your a few years older than my father? Can I get banned for saying that?

QUOTE(Chisoxrd5 @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 08:55 AM) No not at all. They don't card you to get into the patio party. You just 'hypothetically' wouldn't be able to drink. Ok I don't drink anyways, does that mean they won't let me in?

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 08:59 AM) All the sniff test, mac & cheese, and paper plates Hahaha 2 for 3!! I can actually legitimately do laundry. And no, I'm not gay! Ladies, give me a call!

QUOTE(Dick Allen @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 08:58 AM) Since 2000, Frank was paid a total of $42.5 million from the White Sox. This is what the White Sox got for that money 1482 AB 244 RUNS 381 HITS 86 2B 1 3B 104 HR 282 RBI 278 BB 330 K .257 AVE .374 OBP .527 SLUG Considering he can't play the field, it is the White Sox who have been disrespected. Frank should give some of the money back. If we had an applause emotion on this board, I'd post it here. Well done!

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 08:55 AM) Stuff like that, we (at least I) can take. And it's to silly to believe. Like you guys would do your own laundry, cook your own meals, or do your own dishes.. Hey I'm actually somewhat skilled to the point where I can adequately do all 3 of those things! Sexist

QUOTE(Steff @ Feb 27, 2006 -> 08:51 AM) I think the dishes comment was hysterical. From talking to him I know he's got an off sense of humor... but I don't think the comment was necessary, and if I was a mother I wouldn't find humor in it. It makes her sound like she's taking advantage. Ok I can go with that. It just seems more like he was cracking jokes during the interview, and went a bit over the top a time or two. I think we've all done that at some time or another trying to be funny, so I'll let it slide. But you can't be dissing women like that too often, this isn't 1955 and plus, most of you bite.

IU should get in if they take care of business to finish up the regular season. SIU seems to always fail at Arch Madness, and if they do it again this year, they may not dance. It's going to be VERY close IMO.
