English Premier Soccer
QUOTE(Mplssoxfan @ Mar 21, 2006 -> 01:49 AM) Tough to compare Premireship clubs to MLB, so I'm not going to try. The loyalties are much more ingrained and the rivalries are much fiercer. Let's say you start with something easy, like Man U=Yankees. What would Man City then equal? The Mets? The Red Sox? A damn good case could be made for either point of view. Let's try this one: Liverpool=Dodgers. Then we have Everton=Giants, I guess. Let's tackle London. If Arsenal=Cardinals, then I guess Chelsea=Cubs (except for the part where they finally won). If Arsenal=Cubs (again, except for the winning part) that could mean Chelsea=Cardinals and Tottenham=White Sox. Actually, it's probably more like Tottenham=Cubs, Arsenal=Cards and Chelsea=White Sox, but since I've supported Tottenham for as long as I've followed English Football, I'd be ashamed to admit that. I guess I tried anyway -- and failed, to boot. Who are the popular teams and why? Also, what are the most popular jerseys?

AJ on Fire
QUOTE(RME JICO @ Mar 21, 2006 -> 01:24 AM) Yeah, he is looking a lot better. I also like the fact that he is getting different types of hits, not just all singles or all HRs (which would be cool). He has 11 total hits, 2 2Bs, 2 3Bs, and 1 HR. That is some nice production. Plus his defense is awesome, and judging by the ozzie chair tape, he is taking a void in the stooges.

I know nothing about the certain teams, and I would like to buy a jersey. Can someone tell me about the teams and try to compare them to baseball, if that is possible. So far I like the arsenal, chelsea and liverpool jerseys.

Big Ten Basketball
QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 21, 2006 -> 12:48 AM) OSU should be one of the top 5-10 teams in the country. You're right about the rest of the conference. Ohio State will be awesome. The Big 10 was very senior heavy this year, but that is the beauty of college bball, one never knows.

Big Ten Basketball
QUOTE(Jordan4life_2006 @ Mar 21, 2006 -> 12:40 AM) Pat Forded on the not so BIG TEN. Harsh, but true. The big 10 will have a tough year next year...The big 12 is on the up. KU, OU, OSU,Texas, Texas A&M and Baylor, yes Baylor will be pretty good.

Mark quinn
White Sox signed outfielder Mark Quinn to a minor league contract. Quinn, who hit 37 home runs for Kansas City in 2000-01, last played in the majors in 2002. There are suspicions that he was one of the Royals minor leaguers guilty of using steroids in the late-90s. He'll open the season in Double- or Triple-A. Mar. 20 - 3:03 pm et

Iowa State's basketball team possibly in some poop
QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 20, 2006 -> 07:38 PM) Sources say UWM head coach Rob Jeter could be named head coach at Iowa State as soon as Wednesday. Strange decision, this guy only has one year of coaching experience. Good luck with that.

Rush returning to Kansas for Soph Year
QUOTE(watchtower41 @ Mar 20, 2006 -> 12:56 PM) True sign on Jayhawker Towers.... "If youre a girl, stay away from Lester Earl." Kenny Gregory and Lester Earl used to live down the hall from my apartment, so much potential, so little game. Ehh, at least they used to win a tourney game back then. So sad, so true. Kenny Gregory was the best slasher with no jump shot at all. Hey watchtower, pm me ill tell you some funny hinrich,gooden and collison stories.

Joe Borchard Traded to Seattle
QUOTE(Balta1701 @ Mar 20, 2006 -> 12:05 PM) Problem is, the season starts in 13 days. That's not a lot of time for Cooper. Maybe they're thinking they'll start Logan at AAA, let this guy just have the big league spot for a few weeks, hope he figures things out, and cut him loose if he fails & Logan succeeds? I was about to post the same thing. Cooper may be a miracle worker, but not in 2 weeks.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 20, 2006 -> 11:12 AM) Greg McDermott can kiss my ass.... And what program is on probation? If they are put on probation, it would be hard.

QUOTE(Heads22 @ Mar 19, 2006 -> 10:55 PM) The scuttlebutt has been Rob Jeter and Mark Turgeon, among others. I have heard Greg Mcdermott also, though its hard to sell a program on probation.

Rush returning to Kansas for Soph Year
QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 19, 2006 -> 10:56 PM) No, but Arthur not being as good as Rush is pretty common sense to somebody who follows recruiting. Arthur is like Wright without 1/8th the passing game. He needs work, no matter how much he wants to be in the NBA. I follow recruiting too,but without seeing them in person or around the college game, we have no idea what you will get. Case example Lester the molester Earl was like the king of his recruiting class.

Rush returning to Kansas for Soph Year
QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 19, 2006 -> 10:55 PM) I don't think KU getting Rush back has any affect on Iowa State, who is bad, lost their 2 best players, without a coach, and heading for probation/maybe worse. /mean, sad, and true. //poor Heads Who is in a worse case, Mizzou or Iowa State?

Rush returning to Kansas for Soph Year
QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 19, 2006 -> 10:54 PM) That's cute, but he's not half as good as Rush, who's borderline good enough to be a one and done. So that's not something KU should worry about with Arthur. just wondering how do you know so much about this guy, do you live in Dallas??

Rush returning to Kansas for Soph Year
QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Mar 19, 2006 -> 10:49 PM) You could be better off with Slim. Rush is gone as soon as he's a 1st round lock (after next year the latest), whereas Arthur needs a bit of work so he will stay a few years. I think DA wants to be a one and one also.
