Man, given my ties to the Cardinals, I really wanted this game thread. I guess no time is too early these days. Go SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOX!

Congrats, Kings! I can't wait to read about how Bill Simmons' 10-year old daughter is so happy about this after she sobbed herself home when the Kings lost the last clincher and were only up 3 games to 1 at that point. Such a tough lesson in sports!

QUOTE (IlliniKrush @ Jun 12, 2012 -> 12:17 AM) He's being an idiot. Go away troll. But don't pick on him in the NBA thread! The mods will come a-calling even though he troll posts there sometimes, too!

Letter from Sandusky to a child. fry him.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 11, 2012 -> 02:14 PM) LeBron has gone absolutely f***ing nuts. Doesn't make him any less of a dick for The Decision and the "Not 1, not 2, not 3, not 4, not 5, not 6, not 7" and "It's gonna be easy" speech/party. He basically acted like the NBA Title belonged to the heat. He made his bed, so unless he delivers titles, he's sleeping in it. I can live with this.

Since that pathetic loss to Indianapolis, LeBron is averaging 33.3ppg, 11.1rpg, 5.1apg, 1.1 3pg, 1.2bpg, 1.4spg over his last 10. He's at 30.8, 9.6, 5.1, 1.2, 0.8, 1.9 for the playoffs - 18 games. What a disappointment. What a choker. Last year? Ok, dog the guy. This year? You just can't.

How can you look at this game log and try to say that LeBron isn't single-handedly carrying that team? He's been great.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 11, 2012 -> 12:19 PM) But it was gon' be easy and Pat Riley could play like he was at Kentucky because Wade and LeBron are all business and going to push each other in practice. Wade and Bosh have been injured. LeBron has put together historic performance after historic performance. He made a stupid, annoying DecisionTM, yes, but he's still been a complete motherf*cking monster.

Sergio Santos is the new Mike Sirotka. Sorry Jays. Sergio Santos felt renewed discomfort in his right shoulder after throwing a bullpen session last week. "Because of that discomfort, which can be normal for a guy ramping back up, we've had to slow him down," Jays manager John Farrell said. Santos has been on the DL since April 22 and remains out indefinitely. Casey Janssen will continue handling Toronto's save chances.

Trout is the #1 player in fantasy over the last month. I love it.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Jun 10, 2012 -> 12:43 PM) Compared to how the NBA worships its players to the point that the refs call fouls based on how famous guys are, I would rather know less about Joey Votto and have a quality league. It's not like Joey Votto is hurting for money. My wife sits through baseball with me, sometimes. She shows genuine interest in Verlander starts, because he's the one guy who gets himself out there. MLB has one commercial that has Kemp, Paulie, Verlander, and McCutchen, among others, in it, that she enjoys and is engaged by. Rip NBA officiating all you want, but their advertising is bar-none the best. Your point is kind of off in the fact that this was a comment on marketing and not the credibility of a league's officiating. To use my wife again, she loves the NBA and the fact that she knows a bit about the players, be that what's given her via marketing or not. The MLB certainly could do well better for themselves by letting us see these players more and by promoting them.

QUOTE (Quinarvy @ Jun 11, 2012 -> 11:57 AM) OKC wins as Durant rips title of best player from LeBron's hands. These items do not have to go hand-in-hand. I have OKC in 6. The Celtics are half the team that the Thunder are and just took the Heat to 7, but the Heat will presumably have a more mended Bosh.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Jun 6, 2012 -> 09:28 AM) CMA Fest tomorrow! Well that was a wild 4 days.

We just need a decent SP at this point. I doubt KW goes after David Wright, who is the obvious answer on offense.

This poll is just kinda weird. I went with one of the 2nd place options. And holy crap, Chris Sale rocks.

QUOTE (farmteam @ Jun 11, 2012 -> 10:23 AM) Not denying that being a vegan (or vegetarian; I'm not sure of their comparative health effects) is probably healthier than eating a ton of (especially red) meat, but this seems like it could be misleading. I'm guessing the lack of these things has more to do with a general healthier lifestyle, or at least the lack of bad non-meat foods (candy, trans fats, fried foods in general, etc.) than it does with just not eating animal products. But I also only read this one post in the conversation, so maybe I'm way off base and look like a fool now. EDIT: Read it all now. Less of a fool than I thought I'd be. It was just a reply to a post that decided to ridicule veganism for no real reason. More power to anyone who wants to eat whatever, but I think male vegans still have penises.

Major New Evidence in Sandusky Case Full blown cover up, because it wouldn't be fair to expose Sandusky. Everyone. Hang.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Jun 11, 2012 -> 10:06 AM) I've got OKC in 6. Unlike Boston, OKC won't get tired. And OKC has about twice the talent.

QUOTE (kev211 @ Jun 11, 2012 -> 01:41 AM) People forgot Lebron was pretty clutch in the ECF last year before falling apart in the Finals. I, sadly, do not.

QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 10, 2012 -> 12:37 AM) Vegans don't have what? Cardiovascular disease, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, prostate cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer - ok, we'll just go 'cancer', obesity, diabetes, cataracts, arthritis, bad skin, man boobs, etc. That's the answer you were looking for, right?
