QUOTE (SnB @ Nov 9, 2009 -> 09:27 PM) frank thomas. that swing contributed to my little league downfall. same. I even had my back leg lift off the ground as I made contact like the hurt. I didn't try to do it, but I thought it was pretty damn cool that I did the same unconventional thing as my hero.

1. Lebron 2. Wade 3. Bosh Those are the only ones that matter. I know getting a big to pair with Rose is needed, but you don't pass up a chance at all time greats like Lebron and Wade.

yeah, im completely over Thome at this point. I want him no where near this team as a player.

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Nov 5, 2009 -> 07:32 PM) Teahen starting at first? No thank you. I'd rather have Kotsay if they were going to do something that bad. At least he has a nice glove at first.

I haven't been to hawks game in 2 years and can't remember anything special about it.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Nov 4, 2009 -> 10:07 AM) I was watching some clips of the national anthem for Hawks games on You Tube and got to thinking, is this the greatest side show done now at a major sporting event? What else is there? The 7th inning stretch at Wrigley has become a joke. There are things like the dotting of the I at Ohio State and maybe the Rally Monkey in Anaheim.. What else is there? This may sound stupid but what do they do during the national anthem?

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Nov 2, 2009 -> 09:59 PM) I'm not an ISU basher, but do that many fans really travel that well/care about the team? Yes.

70 NHL also killed me. I got all the NBA ones correct.

I've got my tickets for ISU vs. UIC on the 23rd. Should be a fun game. Hopefully alot of Redbird fans in attendance.

QUOTE (Willy52 @ Oct 30, 2009 -> 10:47 AM) The more popular team? Sorry, the Hawks are the best team in the UC bar none. And quit with your hate on hockey. You act like basketball is the greatest thing since sliced bread. I never said I hate hockey. It's not my thing. Just saying that the Bulls are way ahead of the hawks in terms of popularity. Even last year when everyone knew that the hawks had a better chance than the bulls of going further in the playoffs, the bulls were all anyone was talking about while they were in the playoffs. At least from from my perspective. Welcome to Soxtalk!!

Basketball will always be more popular than hockey in this city. What the blackhawks are doing is nice, but the Bulls are by far the more popular team. Also hockey fans tend to be more affluent so attendance may not be the greatest factor. Look at the tv ratings.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Oct 29, 2009 -> 10:01 PM) The Chicago Fire? It crossed my mind.

QUOTE (southsider2k5 @ Oct 29, 2009 -> 09:49 PM) If you would have told me that a Chicago team would win, and one would lose tonight, I would have lost every dime of my life savings today. It took me a really long time to figure out what other chicago team was playing tonight.

Really excited for the Celtics-Cavs matchup tonight. Especially since I can't watch the Bulls opener.

The NFL thread amuses me. I know nothing about football.

I only got 9 right and just went back and looked at all of them and there were also 9 i've never even heard of.

I love the Birdman. This video is the LOLZ.

QUOTE (MHizzle85 @ Oct 26, 2009 -> 12:23 AM) 12/20...kjshoe would punch me if he knew who I forgot.

15/20.

I'd honestly say on a neutral court the chance is closer to 25-30%. 1% is ridiculous. Illinois is not North Carolina here.

I got 9.

Windows 7 is really nice. I've been on it for a couple of months and so far it has been the best OS I've ever used.

Especially not the Salukis.
