IlliniKrush

I think we both know that KochThis knows nothing, he is a homer that won't stop crying and look at the facts. Notre Dame beat Marquette, Maryland and Texas in the same week. They could take Illinois. Well we all know Spiff is an assclown, as he hasn't noticed Notre Dame's complete collapse at the end of the season. Hey Spiff, be prepared to eat a ton of s*** after Illinois beats ND in the 2nd round, providing ND doesn't get beat first, which could easily happen against milwaukee. Notre Dame is one of the coldest teams right now, and we are one of the hottest. Right now, would ND beat texas? or maryland? that's a strong hell no, and you damn well know it. Illinois will dominate ND with our inside game. Just wait buddy. By the way who is ur team buddy? oh i don't follow college basketball, i don't have a team. nice to see you getting all worked up though, buddy. Nice to see you've lost the argument buddy

Hey assclown, how did ND do in the Big East conference tournament? OOPS, THEY f***ING LOST TO ST. JOHN'S!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOOD CALL BUDDY!!! :puke :puke :puke :puke

Yes, cuz every EB employee is the same person, right?

Western Kentucky over Illinois, that's hilarious. f*** you :fyou :fyou :fyou

you obviously know more than any expert at espn becuz u are the only one that thinks the illini deserved a 4 seed. in that case, let me bow down to you...ya, right...u obviously don't know s*** if you think illinois deserved a 4 after what they just did. what did they just do? beat indiana and ohio state? a 7 seed and a team that's not even in the tourney? WOW. I said Xavier is justified with a 3 seed. I never said Illinois deserved a #4 seed. I said if they are so good then seeding shouldn't matter. They went 11-5 in a very weak Big 10 this year. Then you say the Big East was weak, ha. There are at least 3 and maybe 5 teams in the Big East that could beat Illinois. I say the 4 is generous considering UConn got a 5 and they would destroy U of I. 3-5 teams my asshole, you've got to be kidding me. Just cuz the Big Ten isn't great doesn't mean the illini aren't great either. And the Big East and s***, there are plenty of cupcakes in there too. Uconn would kill the illini? Please buddy. Pitt is damn good, but i'll take my chances againt UConn and Syracuse, and anybody else can go to hell. I'd say the Uconn and Syracuse games would be toss ups

I just went to EB in the mall and talked to the guy there who has played every baseball game out this year extensively, and he said BY FAR the best game is world series baseball. the only problem is, it's not out on PS2 til wednesday. oh well. He talked extensively about how the franchise mode "blows away maddens franchise mode" and how it has the best pitcher-batter interface of all the games. He said allstar's gameplay still sucks and while mvp baseball is a lot better than triple play, he said comparing mvp to world series would be like comparing quarterback club to madden. He talked about the game with me for like 15 minutes, gave me every rundown about how attendance effects revenue and how the GM will be on your case if you start losing right away. And how this game is the first to have realistic looking curve balls and changeups and the like. I can only tell you what i heard, but i'm getting this game wednesday and will write a complete review on here.

They beat Mizzou, that's it. UNC was only 5-0 at the time & finished with a 17-15 record. If you're counting Carolina as Illinois' 2nd best non-conference win, then I've made my point...cupcake city! I do agree that the selection committee did a pretty s***ty job, though. And who the f*** does Xavier play all year long? Ya, there ya go We are one of the hottest teams in the country and got it stuck up our ass with a 4 seed. We won our conference tournament in convincing fashion and was 2 missed cook/williams free throws away from winning the regular season title. We demolished UNC when they were all hyped up and took care of Mizzou easily. The same Mizzou that beat Kansas, thank you very much. Are you sayin the Big Ten sucks? That's a load of crap. Besides the Big 12, the ACC and SEC aren't all that great either. This is a load of bulls*** and the committee sucks. Hey f***ers put Kentucky and Arizona on the same side, that's genius. Oh and why would Arizona be pissed if they are playing Illinois who supposedly sucks? They would only be pissed if they were playing a team that was ranked lower than they should. Thanks for contributing to my point. You are in the minority for sure, go watch the bracketology crap and they all know we got hosed. :fyou :fyou :fyou When the f*** did I say Illinois sucked? I did say that it was a bit of a down year for the Big 10...anytime Wisconsin is able to take the conference title is a pretty good sign of that. Do you honestly believe the Big 10 is better than the Big 12, Big East, ACC or SEC? Arizona should be pissed because they have been the top team most of the season & are in the toughest bracket. For the 1000th time, I agree the committee did a pretty s***ty job, but now you're b****ing about the best 2 teams coming out of the same side? This seems to happen nearly every year. It is because the committee rewards the top seeds by putting them as close to home as possible. Where does Illinois play there 1st few games? Indianapolis, in front of the home crowd. Look at some other 3-4-5 seeds & where they are at....#3 Duke-Salt Lake City, #4 Dayton-Spokane, WA, #5 UCONN-Spokane, WA. These 3 teams are getting f***ed alot harder than Ilinois, but my guess is that all 3 teams & fans of these teams have more class than to constantly piss & moan about their seedings. Hey, do u realize that if Illinois plays ND in the 2nd round, it's NOT A HOME CROWD...DO YOU REALIZE WHERE ND IS?

b**** about what? we have an honest gripe, don't listen to illini fans, go read about it and watch some tv, they are b****ing and they aren't illini fans are they?

The big east sucks (4 teams and nd sucks) and the whole one side of the SEC is a joke

If ARod missed significant time, my AL fantasy team will fold like an acordion.

#11 Illinois Jersey Get em while they're hot And then run like the freakin wind

We got f***ing hosed, what a bunch of bulls***, a 4 in the hardest f***ing region, the whole campus is pissed, it's crap. And the committee sucks, their bracket sucks, they put arz and kentucky on the same side, what a bunch of morons, leave boston college out, put auburn in, no sense, some of the seedings sucks, how is texas a #1 and kansas not, hey committee here's a spoon so you can EAT MY ASS :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou :fyou

maybe cause hes the catcher baggs....lol..... Maybe because he's gay?

I'm 6ft so would a 44 be alright for me Cerb. I'm like 155 or so. god you must be a skinny little s*** Lol, its what you think, but I'm not really all that skinny. Right now I'm working on putting muscle mass on. A year ago, I was more like 170, but now have worked on getting cut and more ripped. I am not too ripped right now, lol. Just slowly but surely improving. I'm a lot quicker too now. The big thing was just not eating fast food anymore. In highschool I ate a lot of it, now I don't really touch the stuff. I'm getting my mile time back down into the 6's and stuff. Figure better start preparing for when I get old, lol You want ripped? Try 5'9" and a 138 lbs. Bring it To add on to that, i've been a hockey player all my life!

I'll say right now, this signing f***ing sucks, i hate Kordell Stewart, screw him and the horse he rode in on, a healthy Miller is better than this guy, and hell we already have a Kordell Stewart, his name is Henry Burris...ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh i hate this!

My guess: Mota is just an asshole. I haven't heard of anything else explaining it.

Watch out for Travis Hafner, not Omar

In today's game i don't know how much room their is for specialists, or a LOOGY. Who can tell me what a loogy is by the way? It's a good question.

Cmon man, if a guy threw at you after what happened last year, on 2 consecutive pitches, you'd be pissed as hell. You just don't let people do that crap to you just because they are holding the ball and have the ability to. I don't blame him. That's pure bulls*** and has no place in the game.

Well what is funny about this whole thing is Mesa said that if Vizquel came to apologize, he'd punch him in the face, THEN kill him....uh, sure Jose. I mean i guess he has to punch him first for good measure. Whatever that's supposed to mean. Hopefully they play each other in 2005. And if not, suck it Mesa, you sucked in that game, you blew it, go to hell. Vizquel was only telling the truth.

I just read that Piazza drove over to the Dodgers clubhouse after the game and was screaming "Where's Mota Where's Mota", but Mota left a long time ago. I wouldn't want to be Mota right now.

Anyone else see that brawl last night? After last year's spring training incident, you'd think Mota would learn...instead, he throws at him first pitch and misses him, then drill him on the next pitch. Piazza charged the mound, but couldn't get to Mota because the Dodgers infielders got there too quickly.Then Burnitz almost got to him, but Mota kept running away until he reached the dugout, and he left the ballpark before the end of the innings. Piazza's eyes were so intense they were described as "cartoonish" on sportscenter. Anyway, what suspsension does this warrant for Mota? I honestly think something like this, especially being a pitcher, warrants a month suspension when the season starts. I mean, that was COMPLETELY intentional. And it happened last year. There's no room for that crap in the game.
