QUOTE (SoxFan1 @ Jun 29, 2008 -> 09:05 PM) Wow, the quality of posts in that NSBB forum after tonights loss is pretty damn low. I love that everyone is pulling out drug/job jokes. You just got swept and are in a 4 game losing streak. STFU. EDIT: Buehrle is a "hick from Missouri", wow. Talk about class. You see similar posts around here when the Cubs beat the Sox. Such is the life of a fan base.

Considering the fact that the bullpen was better in 2005.. I have trouble believing that this is the best ever. And yes, Joe Morgan is an idiot.

Family Guy was funny for 2.5 seasons, and shouldn't be as high as it is. Also, because its fun to 'complain' about this, still no Futurama, damnit!

That was absolutely horrible defense.

QUOTE (Frankensteiner @ Jun 28, 2008 -> 02:32 PM) Why is Lou upset? I was wondering the same thing.

Awesome hit by Alexei, that was a very good pitch.

Monty Python should be #1.

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 05:43 PM) I've never seen a 19 year old (or even a 21/22 year old) point guard as good as him as they entered the NBA. QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 28, 2008 -> 12:25 AM) Rose will not score 16 a game, but the assist and rebound numbers will be similar to Paul's. The fact Rose only had one year of college experience means he will start a bit slower too IMO. Again, correct me if I'm misinterpreting this, but it looks like two different thoughts here. Either he'll be the best rookie point guard you've you've ever seen (your first post) or he'll start off slow, leading me to believe that you don't think he'd be the best rookie point guard you've ever seen due to age (your second post). Also, if he'll have comparable apg and rpg to CP, but less ppg than him, wouldn't that make CP a better rookie and therefore a better PG directly out of college?

QUOTE (KyKyGruber @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 10:52 PM) you guys want animated gif right? Yes.

I didn't make a list, but Everybody Loves Raymond? Seriously? To think a show like Futurama isn't going to be included but that is.. a shame!

QUOTE (whitesoxfan101 @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 05:43 PM) Derrick Rose is the most talented and gifted all around PG I have ever seen come out of college. I can't compare him to anybody, because I've never seen a 19 year old (or even a 21/22 year old) point guard as good as him as they entered the NBA. I'm sure Jason Kidd was close, but to be fair I don't really remember him at Cal. Reading this, am I right in assuming that you then believe Rose will have a better season next year than Chris Paul (or Deron Williams) did during their rookie years? Deron Williams, maybe, but I see no way of Rose matches Paul's 16.1 ppg, 7.8 apg, and 5.1 rpg during his rookie season. Maybe somewhere inbetween what D-Will did (10.8 ppg, 4.5 apg, 2.4 rpg) and Paul, but certainly not better than Paul's first year.

QUOTE (fathom @ Jun 27, 2008 -> 08:08 AM) I saw Taylor play at Iowa St quite a few games, and he was just a stat sheet stuffer (and not always in a good way). I wonder if Felix remembers the crazy game at Minnesota when he had like 30 pts in the 2nd half of the game. Yep. He was pretty awesome that game, and it completely sucked. He was the only reason they beat us.

As much as I hate Ohio State players and products, Koufos is pretty awesome. During a conference call, he referred to Deron Williams as "Mr. Williams" and called reporters "sir". People laughed at both of these things, but it's pretty cool to see someone actually be respectful when being interviewed.

Ok Beckham, time to sign. Sucks that you lost, but lets get going.

Beckham just hit a HR to tie the NCAA leader at 28.

QUOTE (WCSox @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 06:54 PM) He didn't exactly suck at SS 10 years ago. 10 years ago, 1998, Jeter owned a Rate of 95 and a -7 FRAA. So no, he wasn't absolutely horrible, but he was still below average. Ironically enough, 10 years ago was his best defensive season up until 2004. No, defensive stats never tell the whole story, however Derek Jeter has always been a average to below average shortstop defensively.

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 06:17 PM) Its funny how fickle this board is. We want to get rid of a contact hitter that can bunt, which is basically one of the things this lineup needs in spots, and everyone clamors for a "power, gap" hitter who makes almost no contact and k's a ton. For the record, I've been on board to ditch Pablo Ozuna since 2005 ended. I haven't been fickle at all in that regard.

QUOTE (chw42 @ Jun 25, 2008 -> 05:38 PM) You made Uribe sound like Derek Jeter, you should be ashamed of yourself. Since when does saying someone is awesome defensively sound like a Derek Jeter comparison?

Just say no to Pablo Ozuna

QUOTE (whitesoxbrian @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 12:39 PM) What is the object of having 3 PGs on one team? Because Deron Williams is awesome? It always helps to have awesomeness on the team.

I'm glad to see Fawlty Towers here, even if it's much too low. I can't complain though, I didn't put together a list. I just haven't seen enough comedies on a regular basis to put together a real list of 20 or so.

QUOTE (Tony82087 @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 10:22 PM) I'm just pissed those Cubs games were worth way more than this series is. Really is a shame. Good game from Mark and from the team overall. Shame it doesn't matter because we got swept by the Cubs.

QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 08:14 AM) Is it sexy when he gets to that ball in the gap and catches it standing up? Yes. QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 08:14 AM) Is it sexy when he saves a base hit because he can afford to play shallow with his jumps. Yes. QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 08:14 AM) Is it sexy when he holds someone to a single when it should easily be a double Yes. QUOTE (Controlled Chaos @ Jun 24, 2008 -> 08:14 AM) Do I need the lingerie model to walk in with her lingerie on Oh yes.
