R.I.P. Curt. You will be missed.

Not surprised.

Never did. He took the better offer in another place. It's not a game of loyalty, it's a business.

Applaud. No questions asked.

Hahahaha lmao no...

Welcome

Oh man, I was absolutely freaking out in the World Series Game 4 gamethread. Holy hell.

Well, I'm not ashamed to say I'm one of the ones who voted for Chicago..

Both of you are talking about two different things. jsinger, you're talking about his current status, and MGB is talking about opening day a month and a half from now. By that time, I wouldn't be surprised to see him 100% after all this rehab time.

Well, they actually made the World Series 2 years ago...

Nice post.

Well, at least we're winning the gold.

Hahaha, I remember in the BC game, Duke made more FTs than BC attempted.

Hahahahaha. The famous "WAAAAAAAAH."

Any team can give any other team "significant problems." Especially when you pick teams like UCONN and 'Nova in your argument.

So they're not allowed to have bad games? Duke is one of the most dominant powers in the NCAA. When you have a coach like Mike Kcvybvkcvbgsfbajbk and great leadership in players like JJ Redick and Sheldon Williams (both of who happen to own face, just in case you've never heard of them ), your team is good. BC is not a pushover team, but Duke is better. Besides, who cares? The fact remains that they won. A win is a win, no matter how ugly it is. Also, just because you "hate" Duke, doesn't mean they're not the best team in the country.

Yeah. Definitely, I agree. Just, once again, trying to show jsinger why his reasoning sucks.

Question: Who cares about the olympics? EDIT: EXCEPT for hockey. Hockey =

The ACC is very weak? They've been considered arguable the best conference, even though the Big East is, IMO, better. They are not "very weak."

Well, I vote Chicago. I know White Sox fans, for the most part, are pretty knowledgable. They have some great stuff over at http://www.soxtalk.com if you take some time to read it. The Chicago Bears have had some pretty good s*** goin on over there, and I bet the fans are able to take the game of football into perspective pretty well (through the eyes of Mike Ditka and Lovie Smith). The Bulls had a pretty good thing goin for them. And the Blackhawks are a pretty solid hockey team, at times. I think Chicago is actually underrated, and if you look at the work thats been done over there, you can probably appreciate it a lot. Now, I don't know if the fans are smart enough to actually take all of this into their brains ("this" refers to the strategies displayed in front of their faces), but if they are, they could be some pretty smart people. Obviously, me voting in this assumes they do. Then again, Boston is right up there too, but there are so many Boston bandwagon fans that a lot of them drown out the knowledgable ones. If I'm going on displayed knowledge from true informative fans, I'm going with Chicago. Even though Boston has a large share of knowledgable fans. Also for the sake of bias, I'm going with Chicago. This is in no way meant to start an argument over who's smarter, just an alternative vision that hopes to open up some minds.

Well, previews and reviews of the game would still attract people.

This made me hysterically crack up for some reason.

Hahah, well, Zimmer's an old fart. It was good to see him get put in his place. He's like a 90 year old man going after Pedro. What did he think was going to happen?

I'm all for having a designated chatroom starter on AIM or something, and then inviting as many people as possible into it for live discussion. That way all the "MANNYYY!!!!111!!!" or "PAPIIIIII!!!!!111 ASJDKFABGHBB" outbursts wouldn't take up so much room in the threads, and it would be awesome to be able to live talk during the game. I could start the chatrooms if need be, and then people can just be invited into it. If you can't start a thread for the night, ask someone else to cover for you. I tihnk it would work well.

I second that.
