QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 01:31 PM) I never had a problem last year. Nova is so losing this game. Wright got cocky not starting those guys. I see it in high school all the time. Down 8 at the 4 minute TO. That is rough.

QUOTE (ChWRoCk2 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 01:33 PM) Every year I take BYU, they are so damn frustrating. Florida deserves to lose for just getting into the tourney. they just said 7 straight first round losses.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 01:23 PM) Fischer didn't start either. Wright said it was a "minor teaching point". May cost them their season. I'm having all types of problems with March Madness on Demand. Choppy. It never works that well. It is always over loaded.

QUOTE (SoxAce @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 12:11 PM) Very injury prone player. He needs to be gone next season by any means. I still don't see him fitting with Rose long term like I do say.. a Rudy Gay. (though I'm sure that won't happen nor will a Deng trade with that contract unless were taking back a Kevin Martin like contract in return) His production though is still needed for this team to make the playoffs. No one will want him for that contract. He is ours for a while.

2010 Cubs Thread
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 10:29 AM) yeah, the Cubs look like a disaster to me for 2010, and maybe worse going forward. I'd be shocked if they did better than 3rd in the NLC this year. the best part is that their expanding contract obligations will make it even harder to recover.

The Big Board!
QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 06:45 AM) It isn't just taking away any month, it was his FIRST MONTH of pro baseball. At age 20, in AA. And his first month away from home, in a place where he doesn't speak the language, or understand the culture.

QUOTE (Brian @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 01:09 PM) I have Old Dominion losing to Baylor, but this game, while close, is hard to watch. This game had to have an under over of about 100. Both of these teams play Hickory High School basketball.

Canseco at least had a big name. The nobodies are the best.

Official 2009-2010 NHL Thread
QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 10:03 AM) Somebody missed the breakaway that was a direct result of Buff's D-suckiness. Now, in the general Blackhawks-concern portion of this post: Thank God this is happening now, and not in the playoffs. The Sharks are having similar issues right now as well. That hit on Seabrook was disgusting. Let's not forget that Wiz was retaliating after Seabs hit Perry to the head in an uncalled penalty. However, Wiz left his feat and put his elbow into Seabrook's head. Seabrook did not have the puck, and that hit came with an intent to injure. I'm sure Seabrook is concussed, but hopefully he'll be back sooner rather than later. The refs ignored a disgusting hit on Sopel later in the game, when he was also without the puck and was railroaded from behind that directly led to the game-winning goal. There seems to be a mark out on the Blackhawks, and if the refs aren't going to help, we need to figure something out. Last night's game was a f***ing joke. The NHL needs to better police these guys or else we're going to have some big time problems. We are a team that can be bullied, and that's not good in the playoffs. I agree totally, but Q is the one who is putting the stop on it. That sucks.

Even if ND goes down, I have them losing to Baylor anyway.

Catch All Anything Thread
It is a great feeling to get through the winter on your budget plan, and actually come into the much cheaper spring and summer months with a less than zero balance.

Chicago Music Venues
QUOTE (Tex @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 10:43 AM) I saw him at Poplar Creek 15 years ago, maybe longer. Awesome show. Was he as bad as The Who at the Super Bowl His voice is shot, and he doesn't really perform anymore. He sits for almost all of the show. Anything that is the old high notes he either drops down a few octaves, or his back up singers do it for him. As for something more age appropriate, I hear they have a magician at Ryan's during the early bird buffet

The Republican Thread
QUOTE (southsideirish71 @ Mar 17, 2010 -> 10:48 PM) Just had the pleasure of watching how a person who is on government assistance buys groceries. Now I know this is not all of those who are on government assistance, but still this is comical. I was up at the Jewel getting garbage stickers for Downers when a man and his wife start to split up their very sizable grocery carts, 2 of them mind you. They proceed to break them into bundles, and purchase them with this government checks, and that Link card, and a WIC check, etc etc. It was over 300 dollars in food. Then the man proceeds to purchase about 75 bucks in hard alcohol. He uses cash for that. He pulls out a wad of 100 dollar bills, saw him breeze through about 9 of them before he got to the lower bills. He purchased this in cash, then took his two carts of food and booze and proceeded to the parking lot. I come out moments later to see him loading a very large brand new Mercedes SUV with the food. Thank God we can provide for the less fortunate. I TOLD YOU NOT TO TELL ANYONE ABOUT THAT!!!

Andruw Jones spring training mean anything?
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 08:04 AM) Thank you for helping my point. The results and numbers have nothing to do with it. If you havent SEEN Andruw Jones play, you cant make one call or the other on how he looks based on ST numbers. Of course based on how he is hitting the ball to all fields, staying back in his stance instead of the pull happy out in front approach he's been taking the last few years, I would say he is a much improved player and could be in for a good year. You can get excited when you see CLEAR changes in the way a player looks and is approaching the game, which has NOTHING to do with the actual numbers which was my point. If you havent seen the guy, your only negative or positive feeling is going to be based on stats on a sheet, which is irrelevant. This is kind of what I was hoping to see. I can look up to see what he is hitting, but I want to know how he is hitting it. Is he cheating on fastball from crappy AA pitchers, or he is doing something legitimately worth getting excited about. Is he hitting good off-speed stuff, and decent pitchers?

Nationals Release Elijah Dukes
QUOTE (Kalapse @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 12:08 PM) And AT&T Park has an enormous outfield, offense isn't everything, Dye would end up costing them quite a few runs meandering around right field. Dye in that park would be an epic FAIL.

Competitors for the open bullpen slot
QUOTE (qwerty @ Mar 18, 2010 -> 06:08 AM) Now don't let kalapse make you think otherwise... not that i think he was trying to. Overpowering someone does not just entail high velocity. It goes into much greater detail. Throughout this games history some of the very nastiest and most overpowering pitchers are those who are lucky if they can hit 90 on the radar. But it sure helps to have the 97mph heat working for you...

QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 17, 2010 -> 10:16 PM) At least Ovy is a good player, Wiz is a no talent assclown. The big difference being there wasn't an intent to injure on Ovy's hit. Wiz wanted to take off Seabs head.

Official 2009-2010 NHL Thread
QUOTE (RockRaines @ Mar 17, 2010 -> 10:12 PM) Wiz is such a little b****, not only is he going to be suspended for that hit, but he dropped the gloves on keith to instigate and proceeded to hit him in the back of the head. You are a p**** James. He should get a while for that one. It was ridiculous. If Ovy got two games for the hit on Soupy, that is a five gamer at least.

What a HORRIBLE set of blown calls on the hit of Seabrook. If that isn't a gamer, I don't know what is. He got hit in the head, and the guy left his feet!

Company Health Insurance Reimbursement
QUOTE (Chisoxfn @ Mar 17, 2010 -> 06:07 PM) Every company I've ever worked for (and I've worked for some huge companies) you don't get anything if you opt out. Only reason to really opt out if you have a decent health care plan is if your significant other has a better one. Same here.
