Is this a serious question? John Danks WAR 2007-2012 = 18.1 Brandon McCarthy WAR 2007-2012 = 6.4

A Jesuit is a member of the Society of Jesus, which is a Catholic religious order founded by Ignatius of Loyola in the 16th Century. They're best known for their work in education. Georgetown, Boston College, Loyola, Marquette, St. Louis, Detroit, Xavier, and Gonzaga (among others) are all Jesuit universities.

White smoke--new pope to be announced shortly.

The 2005 conclave was decided on the second day, the fourth ballot overall.

I think one of the experts said something to that effect in post 55.

If the Brazilian guy gets elected pope, does that mean the Vatican automatically qualifies for the 2014 World Cup?

US beat PR 7-1 last night. Rios was 0-4 for PR. US now needs to win just one of the next two game to qualify for the final round. In the other half of the bracket, Netherlands beat Cuba twice to eliminate them.

No pope today.

After being called Joe Cowley, being called racist is a step in the right direction.

My vote would be: IN: Middle Tennessee Colorado Oklahoma Cincinnati Iowa State Boise State Temple LaSalle Oregon Southern Miss Illinois Mississippi Kentucky OUT: California Villanova Tennessee Denver Alabama Baylor Stanford Virginia BYU Iowa Providence Maryland

The guy from Milan seems to be the overwhelming favorite. If it's decided in the first couple votes it's almost certainly him. If it goes beyond that, may be more likely to be somebody else.

One or two good drafts and they can at least make it to Viscount. Earl is probably 3-5 years away though.

BIG EAST voting this morning to allow ND to move to ACC in 2013-14 instead of 2014-15. Louisville will not be allowed to move early as their football team is needed to fill out the 2013 schedule.

North Carolina missed the tournament the year after their last championship. I think Florida missed it after their second one, and I remember hearing that Kansas was on probation the year after the Danny Manning team.

Or the reporter at USA Today said it three weeks ago and the Score just noticed.

Also, Butler is moving to a conference that includes Georgetown, Marquette and Villanova, so Stevens is going to have a real chance to turn Butler into a perennial Top 25 team.

I would not skip starters, especially in April. Let everybody get extra rest and keep them fresher for September.

So Charlotte is going to be awesome this year!

Since the 9 and 10 seeds now get to skip day 1, there definitely isn't a team winning 5 days in a row. If Syracuse can get back to how they played the first half of the season, they have the potential to win 4.

Hey, look at Michigan playing on the first day with Penn State, Northwestern, and Nebraska!

I didn't take it to mean that he was more likely to be gay because of playing for Montreal. I took at as he is more likely to come out because of playing for Montreal because it would be a more accepting environment.

He said he wants to win one more ring. Do the Yankees have a trade lined up?

If I owned property within a mile Wrigley I'd have to think seriously about unloading it. I think moving is a real threat and the day they announce it, property values are going to drop like a rock. Might as well start calling it South Uptown.

Best seats are in the Dress Circle level, but those are probably expensive. The front half of the mezzanine and the front few rows of the balcony are decent seats.
