QUOTE (Thunderbolt @ Mar 4, 2009 -> 03:01 PM) I really hope someone's getting video of all these Viciedo bombs. Feel like we're missing out. hopefully we will a ton to enjoy during the regular season!!!

QUOTE (ChesterCopperpot @ Mar 4, 2009 -> 02:59 PM) Well, I don't care if we win. I'm just rooting for every Sox player (probably not Owens) to do well in Spring Training. So seeing a young pitcher walk three in an inning is disappointing, even if it is Spring Training. So I don't know. I don't care how the whole team does, but I care about how all the individuals perform, which is kinda contradictory. I think we are all rooting against Owens. Viciedo!!!

QUOTE (Melissa1334 @ Mar 4, 2009 -> 02:48 PM) i dont know why we even care lol Agreed, I am looking at individual stats, not team record.

QUOTE (ChesterCopperpot @ Mar 4, 2009 -> 02:34 PM) What's up with all of these popouts? Have you not watched the White Sox, they swing for the fences and usually pop out.

QUOTE (The Critic @ Mar 4, 2009 -> 12:36 PM) Bruins pick up Mark Recchi. I still haven't seen anything about the Hawks getting Moore. Nothing yet on ESPN, TSN, THN, or the Hawks official site. NHL radio confirmed it

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 4, 2009 -> 12:33 PM) Duke has the dumbest fans in the ACC. I heard the chants and started laughing. Duke is ranked 17 spots higher than FSU and only won by 3 yet FSU is overrated?? hahaha I cant wait until the tournament begins and Duke has to play with refs who arent in Coach K's back pocket. They wont make it past the Sweet 16. It is always fun to watch Coach K freak when he does not get "his" calls in the NCAA tourney.

Hawks have picked up Dominic Moore

Why do people suggest Cutler, you know the Bears have zero interest.

Big 12 will get 5: OU KU Mizzou Texas Ok state/Kstate winner

I was at the Mandalay Bay, and those were the odds. They don't have odds for the division out yet.

In Vegas the White Sox are 4-1 to win the pennant. This percentage dropped from 15-1 at the beginning of the offseason. strange in my opinion.

QUOTE (zenryan @ Mar 2, 2009 -> 10:58 PM) interesting... 1. Spent some time in Vegas. 2. Met some ISU boosters who hooked you up in reference to your career ambitions. $$$$ 3. You've been bagging on ISU all year but now want them to win the MVC. Sounds like these boosters have paid some MVC players off and gave you a nice betting tip! I need to call my bookie. Conspiracy theory, I like it. cue the spooky music.

QUOTE (Paint it Black @ Mar 2, 2009 -> 04:59 PM) ILL State is so overrated, and I go there. I think Creighton takes the MVC tourney, I just don't see the UNI thing at all. I am going for Illinois State!!! I spent some time at the Vegas casinos talking with some boosters of ISU and they were very supportive of my career ambitions and gave me great contacts. They also are very fond of Coach Jank, gotta go with the KU connection there.

QUOTE (elrockinMT @ Mar 2, 2009 -> 05:14 PM) Apparently this.team.is.dead It's all fun and games till the games start to matter.

Agreed, there are alot of mediocre receivers who are grand because of their QB's.

QUOTE (Rex Hudler @ Mar 1, 2009 -> 10:38 PM) At what point will people begin to realize that there is no set # of bids a conference will receive? It makes ZERO difference to the Selection Committee whether the SEC gets 4 or 5 bids. They evaluate those teams versus all of the potential at-large teams with no factor placed on conference affiliation. you can blame ESPN for that one.

Very cool video of the World's Greatest Home Court Advantage.

Hello boys, was in Vegas this weekend. I was only able to catch the first half of the game, CBS changed coverage because of the absolute pounding. In terms of Aldrich, I agree and disagree. I believe he has improved offensively and defensively more than any big man in the nation. If you are determining today as his offensive status, its hard when we are beating the press and throwing alley oops. He has developed a very nice outside jumper, but definitely has to work on his low post moves. That is why most of us think he is coming back next year, one more year with Danny Manning is never bad. rock chalk!!!!

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 03:21 PM) WTF? One of my friends who's a taxi driver drove Van Lier somewhere (I can't remember where) like 6 months ago and he appeared to be in perfect health. 6 months ago is a long time for an old dude.

Gerald Henderson is 8 on NBA Draft.net Dar Tucker is looking like a prime candidate for the Turkish Division 2 bball conference.

I already like him more than Wise or Owens.

QUOTE (Jordan4life @ Feb 26, 2009 -> 03:15 PM) Doesn't matter that he's their "4th best" player. He was their best playmaker and perimeter defender. Acker has sucked ass all year. They had no bench to begin with and now it's even thinner. Yes, its a bad loss for them.

Heading off to Vegas tomorrow, my family is already there. Anyone have any good betting recommendations for tonight or saturday? Really wish I was in Kansas for teh Mizzzo game and the Kirk Hinrich jersey retirement. Collison, his good buddy is traveling up from Oklahoma City to be there in person. Love those two guys!

Calm down people, day 1
