QUOTE (RockRaines @ Dec 23, 2010 -> 12:49 PM) He should stay, but Boom, Posey and Adams could go pro. Apparently it was NCAA sanctions so the school will appeal. Maybe they will reduce it. Who knows. Selling your championship rings and gold pants seems like a dick move to me, unless they really were paying their family's bills. Most OSu fans expected Braxton to come in and get some time early anyway, so maybe this will speed it up. Rock, I assume you are a huge OSU fan. I am as well. Watching all of their games, do you really see NFL talent in them? The only one I see having a shot is Posey. I think they all needed their senior year to prove they are legit NFL talent. In my eyes, Prior has almost no shot at being drafted as a QB (If Tebow can go in the first round, anything is possible). He may go as a WR or TE... Boom hasn't shown me anything that screams NFL, Posey I like, and Adams I don't really know enough about to comment that much. That being said, if the suspension stays 5 games, I think OSU's season is over before it begins. I don't see them beating Miami at Miami, and with that loss the NC game is a long shot.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 5, 2010 -> 11:01 AM) I need to DL an app to change my home icons (I played with Launcher Pro last night, but I think I have to pay for Launcher Pro Plus so I can change the size of icones), I’ll be doing that this weekend, but here’s what we’re looking like right now. I like the clock/weather I dl’d. \ I have an EVO, and that looks amazing. Would you be willing to share it?

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Sep 28, 2010 -> 02:59 PM) Hmm....As long as it's not happening to all tickets, I am fine with it. I find it really exciting when I have tickets for months in advance and then find out that it's a great matchup I'll be seeing. But on the other hand, it will suck when I buy tickets for a prime game like Sox/Twins, and it ends up being Garcia vs. Blackburn or something, and then I find out I paid more money for my ticket months earlier than the guy who bought his ticket 15 mins before game time. This is what worries me. I might have missed something, but if I buy tickets at the beginning of the season and then the team tanks, I'll have spent more on tickets than the people that buy these "dynamic" tickets? If this expands to the whole stadium, why would I buy tickets at the beginning of the season (except for games that will sell out quickly)? Maybe it's not a big %, but it seems like they'd lose some ticket sales in the beginning and hope to make that money up closer to the game...

QUOTE (KyYlE23 @ Sep 24, 2010 -> 02:13 PM) http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/news/story?id=5610989 4 way trade being discussed that would send Anthony to New Jersey, contingent on Anthony signing an extension which apparently he isnt too interested in. Wouldn't that make them worse? I don't know much about the Nets, but I thought Harris and Lopez were their "stars" and Favors was a very high draft pick. They would be left with Lopez and Anthony? Just looking at their roster, it doesn't seem like they'd have close to enough to compete with their new roster, what am I missing?

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Sep 22, 2010 -> 04:35 PM) Verducci posted an article earlier where he asked a couple agents to predict where the top FA's contracts would wind up. Oh I really hope they don't resign him to those figures... To me it seems like he isn't consistent year to year, and he seems to be battling injurys more often then not. Getting older won't help that. I appreciate what he has done for the sox, but I think paying a player for what he did for the team in the past is a horrible mistake.

I don't think you should win the MVP if your team doesn't even make the playoffs... How can you be the most valuable player in the AL if your team is sitting at home in October? Isn't the point of the season to make the playoffs and win the WS?

QUOTE (SuperSteve @ Sep 2, 2010 -> 05:52 PM) I thought about playing this game. Went with Minnesota -1 instead. Hopefully Dasher being out for Middle Tennessee helps the Gophers take the victory. Is there a reliable online site to place bets? I've never bet online before but it interests me.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 11:24 PM) Well let me ask you this? To keep Manny would you sign him 2 years for 20 million? I think that'd be a huge mistake. Manny needs to stay motivated. 2/20 would probably be his last contract, and would provide him with 0 motivation. 1 year 10, maybe. If you want him back, the contract needs to be mostly incentive based.

I'll take it!

QUOTE (beckham15 @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 08:25 PM) i swear is CQ reaches AJ better not hit into a DP This is my exact fear right now.

Stealing here?

QUOTE (KipWellsFan @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 08:11 PM) Ummm, yah he already did piss people off today. And I just think it's the wrong move to pinch hit long time hard working Sock in Quentin, with goof off that no one respects. Hah, I love this. Who cares that he's not hitting, he's more respected! Respect doesn't win you ballgames...

QUOTE (bucket-of-suck @ Aug 31, 2010 -> 06:09 PM) Yeah. Cowley the lead Drama Queen looking for a "scoop". Like he's breaking some story. Whatever. If you want informed, impartial reports watch the MLB Network. Not ONE mention as to Manny not playing as anything other than a baseball decision by the manager. The Chicago media just can't wait to create some crap to generate interest and call the gulliable fanbase into controversy. This is Ozzie imposing his authority. Nothing more nothing less. I agree. If I'm not mistaken, manny doesn't play day games after a night game, so he'd only play in one of the next two anyways.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Aug 30, 2010 -> 10:21 PM) lol poor lilli He shouldn't get any credit. If it wasn't for his horrible throw there may not have been a need for extras.

QUOTE (greg775 @ Aug 27, 2010 -> 03:26 PM) Please be true. Or at least don't give up any player in our system who has a chance to be a MLB standout. I'd much rather cheer on Manny in Oct. than watch the Twins get swept by the Yankees. (I realize having him won't guarantee anything, but it's a hell of a lot better of a chance with him) Manny is 100x better than Kotsay. I'm tired of seeing Kotsay choke with RISP. I'm actually just tired of seeing him suck at baseball in general, and it will be great to see someone as good as Manny in those positions instead.

QUOTE (Big Hurtin @ Jun 24, 2010 -> 05:06 PM) The one thing that's making me hesitate buying an Iphone is AT&Ts 2GB/month limit. For those of you already using smartphones, is this a reasonable concern? Just my input, but I had an iPhone 3G up until about 3 months ago, and I checked my usage. I was using about 2.5gb per month. I was streaming pandora or another radio station all day at work, and while I was running. I also read websites or checked facebook on the train to work every day. So it depends on how much you'll use it.

For those of you that have the EVO, how is your battery life? I'm trying to decide between the EVO and iPhone 4. I'd like the EVO, but I am hearing horrible stories about the battery only lasting 6-8hours, 12 at max. I usually go atleast a day if not 2 without charging my phone, so I am worried about this.

I would like to throw something out there that I have been thinking about, but no one really has mentioned... How come no one is bringing up the possibility that this is just a game being played by LeBron in an attempt to better his and Cleveland's chances at getting back to the finals? Let's assume that he has already decided to stay with Cleveland. What would be a better way to help out your own situation than to give false hope to Chicago and New York. If Chicago does trade Deng and/or Hinrich, they are a shell of a team with just Rose and Noah. New York is a pretty empty team as well. Chicago is hoping to get LeBron, and so is New York. They sit this out and keep hoping to sign him, as other teams suck up the top free agents. Now say Miami gets Bosh, Amare goes to the Knicks, and Wade stays in Miami. LeBron's only competition is now Miami, Boston, and Orlando. I think that would be the best case scenario for him if he planned on staying in Cleveland. Chicago now has one of the lesser free agents, and lost Deng. They don't pose as much of a threat as if they were to keep Deng and sign amare or bosh. New York doesn't get the top flight free agents they were hoping to get, and with the rumors of Amare and Bosh wanting to go to the Heat, they would have been this good anyways... Maybe this makes no sense, but it's something I've started to think about these past few days. What better way to help your chances than to have teams think they have a chance for you and destroy their chances of getting better by waiting you out. Hopefully you guys can explain why this makes ZERO sense, but to me right now it does, and is ruining my excitement for July 1st.

QUOTE (CanOfCorn @ Jun 11, 2010 -> 12:46 PM) This is why I love hockey. It isn't about money or fame or endorsements it's about a 38 pound oversized cup with your name engraved on it. Can you expand on this? How is it not about any of those things?

QUOTE (NorthSideSox72 @ Jun 9, 2010 -> 12:44 PM) I don't see anything on whitesox.com - where is this contest? I was just coming on to post this... http://chicago.whitesox.mlb.com/mlb/sweeps...654682-55436272

I'm a Bears fan, but I couldn't be more pissed the Colts lost...

So Dicky V isn't happy ruining college basketball, he's got to get his hands on the NBA too? And yea, I realize they did this last year too, I just hate Dicky V...
