leadoff single for Cabrera

I always love it when a game thread is 100+ posts before it even starts.

QUOTE (CaliSoxFanViaSWside @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 05:57 PM) What are the rules again for how often you can pick the same player ? 1 pick per person per game. (so if there's a double header, you get 2 picks...one for each game) If the highest scoring player is not picked by anyone, then the next highest scoring player, who was picked by a contestant, wins. 1 pt per Base 1 pt per RBI 1 pt per RS 1 pt per SB, BB (-1 pt per out in official AB, K, E, or CS, in case of tie only) A specific player can only be taken twice in one week. Picking a player for a 3rd time is the same as making no pick. Picks must be in by the first pitch of the game, no exceptions. Picks must be made in the thread for each individual day of PTC.

QUOTE (Kalapse @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 05:27 PM) Reifert spoke to Bossard who expects the rain to end soon and for the game to start on time. Bossard>all

QUOTE (SteveB23 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 01:41 PM) That's what "they" said about Donovan McNabb...look where he went. What history do the Indians have of trading their free agents to be within the AL Central.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 01:33 PM) Think I just hit rock bottom in my life by joining that group. Pfft. You hit rock bottom when you picked us for your friends...

QUOTE (SteveB23 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 01:56 PM) Regardless of what happens with Choo, the Indian for whom we should be monitoring is Grady Sizemore. If/when Cleveland falls out of contention, they will look to unload salary. He's the guy I'd LOVE to see batting leadoff for us (moving Pierre to #9 where he belongs.). There is about a zero chance that Cleveland would trade him in their division.

QUOTE (kapkomet @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 06:08 PM) Don't worry about it, the Patriot Act has already made sure of noting the IP that came from. Its a Dem in charge now, it is more like “Carnivore" and "Eschelon" now.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 12:58 PM) Dude... take it down a notch. Wasn't a big deal, just thought it was trite and unnecessary. The polarization stuff is just getting to me. We've lost a lot of great conversation lately, because everyone seems required to shout from the extremes. Calling half the posters in here stupid - which is what you did - just isn't helping anything. That's all I'm saying. He's saying that is it done in the other thread all of the time, and nothing is said about it... I kind of agree with him.

QUOTE (nitetrain8601 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 01:21 PM) Some people don't understand that though. People think the talent is there for the Bulls to be better. It definitely isn't this year with Ben gone, the injuries, the trades made. It's too much to reel from and the only reason why the Bulls are competing for a spot is because of Philly's inexcusable case of suck. Injuries really killed this team. They could have been a middle seed if guys like Rose and Noah don't get hurt.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 10:35 AM) Bernie Bickerstaff at least has had multiple head coaching jobs so he has experience, which Boylan did not. And I think there could of been a benefit, there have been plenty of games that all of us b****ed about that were winnable games, but it came down to coaching as the reason that they were lost. It actually sounded like the didn't fire Vinnie because the team doesn't like Bickerstaff at all.

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Apr 7, 2010 -> 06:40 AM) In my mind the Bulls lost the chance to go to the playoffs last night. There was no excuse for them to come out that flat, that unorganized, that sloppy. They EXPECTED Milwaukee to lie down for them because Bogut was out, and had no idea what they wanted to do. Any time Deng wants to make a shot after the first quarter will be fine by me. And if anything should get Vinny fired, the last minute of the game last night should. 7.3 seconds left, and you have Brad Miller drive to the hoop when you are down 3 points? And whats with all the embarrassing defensive switching done during the game? Noah guarding Salmons? Taj closing out on 3 point shooters? They deserved to lose. I am willing to bet money that wasn't how it was drawn up. Everyone was waaaaaaaaaaay to lost looking for that to be what Vinnie wanted. Brad Miller was looking to pass on both plays.

Awesome pics.

Damn this team is basketball stupid.

How the hell do you not run the offense through DRose?

QUOTE (Brian @ Apr 6, 2010 -> 08:11 PM) All these characters that are having revelations in the ALT, outside of Eloise, died in the show. Maybe this ALT is where people on the island go after they die, meaning lots of casualties the rest of the season? Desmond didn't die.

block out? Anyone?

Geesh was that a ridiculous save by Niemi to end the second.
