QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 02:50 PM) I guess I worded that pretty s***ty. I think the Bulls have been better LATELY, but the Spurs have been the best team in the league OVERALL. Voting awards based on the final two months of play seems stupid to me, so I'd rather use the full season in those situations. Well, yeah, but D-Rose was being talked up as MVP prior to the ASB, and you said the Spurs are better by "quite a bit". You didn't even say "slightly better" or "might be better". So what you did was you typed without having any idea how the Spurs have been playing of late.

QUOTE (qwerty @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 02:44 PM) Haters gonna hate. Is that kinda like homers are gonna be homers? Huh? The Bulls are f***ing awesome and I'm going to enjoy it. I was the first to tell you if the Bulls weren't awesome, and I'd be the first to tell you if D-Rose wasn't legitimately running away with the MVP award. Unfortunately for those posters who want to claim homerism on a Chicago board, in this case it just isn't fact. I have yet to see a game this season (and via at the United Center, live on television or via DVR I've watched all but maybe 4 or 5 games this year) where Derrick Rose was not the most valuable player on the court. Is the MVP the player making the biggest difference to his team and "most valuable" or just the most talented player in basketball. If it's the former (my interpretation), then it's Derrick Rose in a landslide. If it's the latter, it's Lebron. I don't see where Dwight enters into the conversation... and it's just hard seeing the MVP award being dulled out to the best player on a team that keeps declining.

Stop editing your posts! It makes it so hard for me to know what to reply to!

QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 02:39 PM) Whoops, my bad. Didn't realize we were only counting one month of play. I retract everything I have ever said. Dude. You said the Spurs were quite a bit better than the Bulls, which when fully healthy the Spurs lost to the Bulls, but the wheels have come off a bit in San Antonio is all I am saying. The Bulls are playing great ball and I have a hard time being told that any team is "quite a bit better" than them, because it's not true. Seriously, watch the next national Bulls game before crafting an incorrect post like that.

QUOTE (Felix @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 02:25 PM) Except the fact that the Spurs are a better team than the Bulls by quite a bit. Well, sure, if you live in a fantasy land where Tim Duncan's injury doesn't exist, where they've looked good of recent, and where the Bulls didn't win the last meeting. It seems like that post you just made ignores anything that's happened in March.

An ESPN headline: Two super-competitive grinders, Kevin Youkilis and Dustin Pedroia, fire up Boston. I hate ESPN.

QUOTE (moochpuppy @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 11:32 AM) If the Sox don't resign Buehrle you don't think he'll go to St. Louis to finish out his career? Who cares?

QUOTE (Pale Sox @ Mar 24, 2011 -> 10:56 PM) Maybe this is weird, but even though I'm glad they're not our uniforms now, I'm glad we had them. Makes perfect sense and I agree. It really makes me appreciate our 3-headed jersey monster we have right now. I love our jerseys.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Mar 24, 2011 -> 10:34 PM) Stop frontin'. You're the main one that's always got something to say whenever I say something that's not nice. LOL, you even talked s*** about him in the Soxtalk Keeper League 1 draft.

QUOTE (JorgeFabregas @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 10:25 AM) Gavin Floyd is borderline? He's probably a top 20 pitcher in the AL. No. My Lord no that is such an inaccurate statement.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 07:19 AM) Agreed. I just can't see the Hawks beating Detroit. Not that they could beat the Canucks, but it seems they just have their number even from this year with a depleted team. I know we don't have Buff anymore, but Kane has also been a nightmare for 7uongo. I still think we will finish in the 5th-6th range however. Anyone can beat anyone in the NHL, and especially in this year's West playoffs. The Blackhawks have to get in (which looks likely given the games in hand advantage they have... 4 seed is still a definite possibility). However, to think the Blackhawks wouldn't have a huge mental edge over Vancouver would be crazy. I think they'd take that series, but like I said, every series will literally be a toss up.

Haters gonna hate. I love this Bulls team. They have great personalities, great team players, and a great hometown superstar. I grew up with Jordan's Bulls... I was 8 when they won their first Championship. I didn't get to see them becoming great, they were just the great Bulls I loved to watch with little actual understanding of the greatness I was watching... the second three-peat I obviously understood the greatness, but had no way to appreciate it. Being a huge Bulls fan, and a connoisseur of the NBA since Jordan left (and one of the many Bulls fans who suffered through the likes of E-Rob, Jalen Rose, Brent Barry etc, and got excited when our Curry/Chandler/Hinrich/Gordon team was good enough to finally make the playoffs)... this season has been a shockingly incredible surprise in a league that doesn't normally lend itself to surprises. I'm enjoying the hell out of this run, and really enjoying the fact that the team is only improving as the season moves along. The Bulls have as good a chance as anyone to win the NBA Title just months after the Miami Heat were prematurely celebrating the NBA title. Every game is a treat, and I recommend everyone sit back and enjoy the ride. This is a truly original storyline in NBA history. If this team does manage to win the Championship, it will unseat any of those Jordan teams in my eyes in terms of being MY team... if that makes any sense.

QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 09:25 AM) I wonder if Chrome uses page refreshes as "visits", that would explain some of mine. It's re-collecting the data the same as a visit, so I'd assume that is correct.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Mar 25, 2011 -> 09:29 AM) Mexico was a huge drag in RDR. Take that out and it's the game of the year in 2010. Unfortunately it was brutal. I literally put the game down for about 4 months because I was so bored with it. I'm glad I stuck with it and got to see the ending, but damn it was rough. Funny you post that. I got to Mexico just loving the game, but haven't picked it up since the first hour or so of Mexico. I keep saying I'll finish it, but who knows.

Maybe if the Mets canned Minaya long ago when he'd already proven worthless instead of letting him try to cover up terrible signing after terrible signing they wouldn't have wound up in such a mess. The teams have nothing to blame but themselves. A lot of those teams you see with issues (Mets, Dodgers, Tigers) overspent on bad rosters.

I'll be interested to see what Brandon Webb does with them during his comeback this year. He should be back by May (we'll see), and his repertoire is one that could succeed in Texas.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 24, 2011 -> 03:07 PM) "Lights OUt" is done after this season. It started out good but the past 4 weeks, I have lost interest and just watch to see how it will end. If it got renewed, I wouldnt of watched. People are pissed, comparing the situation to Terriers which is ludicrous because Terriers was Awesome and this show ended up being forgettable. I'll be rather perturbed if we don't get the fight we've been waiting for, but if it finishes with Lights winning that fight, I don't really care. The whole premise of building a show around a 40 year old boxer was a ticking timebomb anyway.

QUOTE (maggsmaggs @ Mar 24, 2011 -> 02:40 PM) Finally the Hawks paired Duncan and Seabs together again. Why change what brought you a Stanley Cup? Because they were playing like crap together all season and we reeled off 8 straight wins when they changed it up?

Well, I'll be God-damned, Chrome blows Firefox out of the water.

Oh yeah, I hate Evanescense. I was trying to be funny. FAIL.
