Have you actually seen any of his minor league career? As far as forgetting about Aaron Rowand, we should have a solid defensive centerfielder that knows how to strikeout. Brian's pretty much stood out at every stop.

QUOTE(Chisoxfn @ Dec 29, 2005 -> 12:49 PM) I wouldn't play him. He's banged up and no need to risk it. Of course I dont' exactly want Rex playing under a megshift line. Makeshift?

I bought a 13 dollar pair of socks today. Does that make me strange?

QUOTE(Palehosefan @ Dec 29, 2005 -> 12:19 AM) I've thought about everyone playing a 10 game regular season schedule, 5-5 can make you bowl eligable. The top 4 teams in the nation are in a playoff scenario, 1 seed vs. 4, 2-3 etc, 1 vs. 4 and 2 vs. 3 playing their first game around the same time other teams are playing regular bowl games, then the two winners play in early January for the championship. I understand the need for a playoff, but the bowl system is something I don't want to see scrapped. There's very seldom going to be more than 4 teams with a legitimate claim for the nat'l championship. There could be the plus 1 game, and lo and behold, it could be called "The National Championship Game© ".

QUOTE(whitesoxfan101 @ Dec 29, 2005 -> 12:12 AM) I'd like a senario where a playoff decides a true national champion, rather than the 2 best teams from the weak BCS conferences that year playing for the crown every year. I guess I'm just a bit of a purist as I love bowl season. I'd be a lot happier with 15-20 bowl games, tops, with possibly the the top 4-8 teams grouped in two-four bowls that feed into a national championship game. If it was 8, they could still maintain the BCS bowl rotation, and the final four/national championship shouldn't need to be associated with any bowl.

Would anyone else like a scenario that has a set number of bowl games where bids are determined by an NCAA committee?

I throw a nasty sinker. Mainly cause it runs out of gas at around 58 feet.

QUOTE(White Sox Josh @ Dec 28, 2005 -> 04:06 PM) I think that the AL Central will be the best division again in the AL. The Red Sox have downgraded and the Yankees IMHO aren't that great (they overpayed for Damon). The Blue Jays have improved but again overpayed for a lot of talent. The Indians will be a threat again and the Twins have quietly improved with Castillo. Ehh, I tend to think there's a dropoff from 1-2 to 3, and a bigger one from 3 to 4-5.

QUOTE(Rex Hudler @ Dec 28, 2005 -> 11:59 PM) Owens is NOT a CF, so none of this matters. Repeat after me.......... Jerry Owens is NOT a CF. Jerry Owens is NOT a CF. It's in my sig, minutes before you posted this.

They already lost to Bradley tonight.

Well, I had the seeds off... This site has them 5th, about as off as having ISU fifth as well. http://www.collegehoopsnet.com/ncaatournam...racketology.htm They also have Bucknell as a 4, and if these guys aren't lying, they've been accurate. I love mid-majors as much as the next guy, but Bucknell and Northern Iowa aren't 4-6 seeds. That, and I think McDermott's a prick.

I've had the same thoughts about him for a while.

I do wish everyone would stop fussing over Northern Iowa. They're not a 3-4 seed like everyone is projecting them to be.

Or maybe the Big 12 doesn't suck as bad as everyone thought...

No team deserves to win the conference thus far. I'm not trying to be a homer, but if ISU can win on the road they have a chance to be a top 4 team in the conference.

Dayn Perry is a f***tard.

So much for Boz proposing to Mark......

Heh, UNI still lost to ISU. The bottom of the Big 12 caught up to the middle and and the top fell. Honestly, how would you rank the teams in the conference? Texas and Oklahoma were vastly overrated at the beginning of the season. Oklahoma State got slapped tonight. Kansas has been all over the map. Iowa State with a BAD loss to Fresno and a big loss to an underrated Iona team. I'm pretty sure Colorado and Kansas State are playing over their heads. Baylor's undefeated, I suppose. A&M has been beating up on middle school teams. Texas Tech forgot how to win. Nebraska can't get their s*** together, getting skullf***ed by Creighton, and Missouri just plain sucks right now.

Homemade pepperoni pizza.

LOL...what's worse is I said the Lions should contend for the North.

Yeah, I was joking about WHH. To judge him in 30 days in ridiculous, but I'm not really familiar with anything he did.

Heh, I'll even admit, as much as it pains me, that I was dead wrong about the Bears.

And ISU with way too much trouble with Tennessee State. A lot of people are disappointed with the 10-3 start this year, but last year we started out 8-8, 0-5 in conference. We're in fine shape.

I'll step back from that one.
