QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Jan 23, 2013 -> 12:54 PM) Houston has been pretty entertaining. GS when Curry is healthy. Other than that, it's pretty obvious: Miami: Peak LeBron, 'nuff said. OKC: How do you trade Harden and somehow get better? Clippers: Paul Lakers: just for comedy, I guess. I dont know, I see it more of a unintentional bad movie like The Room

QUOTE (PorkChopExpress @ Jan 23, 2013 -> 11:16 AM) OK, wasn't it just a few years ago, when we acquired Flowers, that everyone was down on his defense? He was a potential 1B/DH candidate? Now he could be a top 10 defensive catcher? Don't get me wrong, I am rooting for the kid, and I hope it's true, but where did the terrible defense stuff come from then? Or has he just worked that hard to improve? I think a lot of it had to do with the fact that he was converted to catcher so everyone doubted his ability. From all accounts he has worked very hard to learn the position, and he obviously has the arm

QUOTE (Buehrle>Wood @ Jan 23, 2013 -> 09:56 AM) Wii U looking really good after Nintendos press conference today No kidding, I have NEVER read an IGN article that praised Nintendo as much as the one released today. MarioKart WiiU, Yoshis Island, Super Smash Bros WiiU, Mario Galaxy WiiU, Zelda, and a WiiU Zelda Windwaker is a pretty awesome bunch of announcements though

QUOTE (iamshack @ Jan 23, 2013 -> 08:57 AM) I thought he was just "tailoring" the truth? They do altering at tailor shops

brief lies huh? So, "brief" means multiple years?

IIRC Pitta is an RFA

QUOTE (Lamar Johnson 23 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 04:10 PM) I have a question...at some point today I posted a presale code for single game tickets, it has since been deleted. Why? We are talking with the Sox ticket office about whether it is appropriate or not to post those codes. There was a complaint so we are following up on it. If they give us the ok, we will put the thread back up

I think Omer had two issues that made him look slow to catch up with the Bulls, injuries and the lockout. Remember, last season he was coming off the broken leg in the playoffs, so his conditioning wasnt at top form. IIRC he also had a broken clavicle in his final season in Europe. THis season he was healthy and hit the ground running

It is nice to look at that list and see Greg Olsen with 69 catches and only 4 drops

QUOTE (Iwritecode @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 12:28 PM) Most cars today won't even start if the belt is broken. Plus, if your belt is going, that is something you will hear. Usually from a mile away

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 02:33 PM) Yep, Kellen Davis was every bit as horrible this year as we believed him to be. PFF TE Drop Rate. Most useless player I've ever seen. Lovie Smith disagrees

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 02:20 PM) Why fix any problem? Why create more problems to fix one

Phillies sign Delmon Young, 1 Year 750K edit: YOU'RE KILLIN ME SMALLS!!!

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 10:23 AM) Grienke was much better than Liriano and a Juan Pierre/Connor Jackson platoon would have replaced Viciedo adequately. Huh, I dont remember Greinke looking that much different than Liriano when the Sox bombed him out of the Cell in his second start. The place where he hated to pitch.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 10:17 AM) Sox still win the division. Liriano was awful. your reason?

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 10:13 AM) Your reason? Viciedo would have had to be included in a trade for Greinke. He wasnt going to Milwaukee for minor leaguers

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 10:08 AM) Who do you think we could have traded for Grienke? Juan would not have been platooning. We both know that.

QUOTE (Marty34 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 09:54 AM) I didn't think KW did a great job at the deadline last year. Had they addressed their easiest correctable issue, a platoon partner for Viciedo, they may have won the division. IIRC you were gung ho for Grienke at the deadline. and your second "want" was Juan Pierre as a platoon. I dont really think they would have won the division if either of those deals were made

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 09:52 AM) When Kirk Hinrich goes for 22 against Steve Nash...don't you have to consider putting Kobe Bryant on the opposing team's best backcourt player, whether its' a SG or PG? I mean, what would Rose have done if Hinrich can do that? Sure, but you have to give your best player a breather, switch it up a little bit so he isnt expending 90 percent of his energy defending. Kobe had nothing left at the end of the game, he just started chucking high arcing prayers. That isnt the cold blooded killer that I am used to seeing closing out games.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 09:42 AM) Ha, true, it's my nature to nitpick. But I would never nitpick boobs. Who was that? Soxbadger? It was. Not entirely though. But I am sure he will present a dissertation that proves, in fact, that he was not nitpicking boobs.

Live long and profit! Happy birthday

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 09:46 AM) I liked the point Simmons made too - by benching him they just lost some trade value. He's not an integral part of the team, so the Lakers can't demand top dollar. Pau Gasols stock has plummeted all season long, and this absolutely makes it worse. Not only is he older and has bad knees, but now he isnt even a starter over Earl Clark. Thats just bad. And last night they also pointed out how D'Antoni is sucking the life out of Kobe too by putting him on the opposing PGs. Since that movie was made, Kobes minutes have shot up and his shooting percentage has dwindled, and Kobe even said he was drained. Not good in La La Land. And as a Bulls fan I LOVE IT

QUOTE (LittleHurt05 @ Jan 22, 2013 -> 09:33 AM) Those lawyers are never happy, just look at the NFL thread. How can one nitpick boobs. Makes no sense
