Charlie Weis got up bright and early on his first day at ND, and so did 200 pathetic losers…I mean fans.
The Irish have a plan to play 12 games each year with only four on the road. Nice work if you can get it.
Tyson Chandler has embraced his role. Which is “dear God, don’t shoot!”
Toronto fans love to boo Antonio Davis. Class.
Roger Powell’s a little out of sorts these days. Just get the rebound, Rog, and give it to Dee. How hard is that?
Bo Ryan speaks the truth.
Phil Rogers takes a look at every team in the NL Central but the Cubs. So, what’s the freakin’ point?
Here’s the Cubs broadcast schedule, and I still hate WCIU.
Ed Sherman says even if he’s wrong, Jose Canseco is unlikely to face any libel suits.
Mariotti puts down the doughnut to say that nobody cares about the NHL. If that’s true, Jay, why are you writing about it?
The Wizard of Roz says the same thing, but at least he spells out what the owners are trying to accomplish.
Buster Olney tours the AL. Yeah, Buster looks like he could use a beating.
Gammons with his final pre-Spring Training missive.
Yes! It’s the SI Swimsuit Issue! Or, as Karry Ling likes to say, legalized masturbation day!
Friend of Desipio Jake Luft ranks the NL pitching staffs.
Fred Mitchell says Dan Plesac might get the Comcast baseball analyst job. Why those dopes let Dave Otto go is beyond me. Besides, are they going to have one for the Cubs and one for the Sox, or have one guy do both? And why haven’t I been hired yet? Why am I talking in all questions?
More on the ’60s Cubs. It’s just so sad, and pathetic.
Michael Jackson is in the hospital now.

What a stupid article by Eric Neel. A slick-fielding FIRST-BASEMAN? Yeah, those are essential. Especially one that can’t hit homeruns or bats .250. What sort of pictures does Doug Eyechart have of Eric Kneel?
Wake me when we’re talking about a slick-fielding shortstop or centerfielder.
Everytime I see a Dusty interview he still sounds like La$#%^head Hawkins is still his favorite to be the closer. I hope he checks out the poll on chicagosports today asking who should be the cubs closer. Out of about 1000 votes, so far La$%^$head has a whopping 27!! Sweaty joe has a couple of hundred, Dempster has around 150 and well over 500 votes goes to “they need to make a trade”. Hopefully thats exactly what they do, although im not sold on the possible trade for Dotel that I keep hearing.
What in the hell makes you think Prior can win 21? He’s more likely to lose both arms in a freak car accident.
One good reason not to punch LaRussa in the face? He’s not Dusty Baker.
Prior won 18 games his first full season in the bigs, and missed two weeks that season because he ran into Marcus Giles. With a fully healthy season and his unbelievable talent, how can you say he can’t?
Oh yeah, and defending LaRussa adds a lot of credibilty, asswipe.
One good reason not to punch LaRussa in the face? He’s a lawyer, I guess. Maybe because you know Carlos Zambrano might just do it for you.
And Ivy, Prior missed closer to 4 weeks in ’03, if I remember right.
If Prior can win 21, then Wood can win more than 14. I think Wood finally gets over the hump this season and posts 18 wins.
Prior can get 20.
BigZ will be right around 18.
Maddux punches out with 16.
That’s 72 by my count. I win! Wheeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
One reason not to punch Tony in the face?
Because his lips are so firmly attached to McGwire’s ass you probably won’t get a clean shot at him.
I’m a bigger assclown than the President of the B.C. Fanclub.
Take this steaming pile from today’s outhouse:
“Imagine playing in the Atlantic Coast Conference, going up against North Carolina, Duke and Wake Forest for two straight months, with barely a breather on the schedule. Imagine playing in the ACC, where a team as strong as Maryland is struggling to stay above .500 and even the bottom-feeders could beat most Big Ten teams. In the ACC, every game feels like a tournament game. Not so in the Big Ten. If the ACC is a pressure cooker, the Big Ten is a crock pot.”
Um, just wondering….didn’t U of I destroy Wake Forest this year?
Not just defetaed, but destroyed.
I’m an assclown.
Feed me!
I liked how the headline on the online version of Slezak’s is: “Tough to grade Illini without test a”
Not sure if that’s supposed to be “Tough to grade Illini without a test” or “Tough to grade Illini without testes”
I have testes, DH. Hell, if I don’t I should. I have more testosterone pumping through me than any of Jose Canseco’s buddies.
Neel’s had a hrd-on for good-field no-hit first basemen ever since Wes Parker guested on “The Brady Bunch”…
That strong Maryland team has losses to Clemson, NC State and Miami. Oh, and they also got beat by Wisconsin, who plays in a terribly weak conference.
I’d like to ask everybody this question? If Kerry Wood doesn’t perform well and pusses out yet again this year, how do the Cubs address that situation?
I also see 4 possible candidates for the Cub’s Poster Whipping Boy or Punching Bag for the season:
1)Dusty Baker(obviously for his horrid managing and personal skills)
2)Kerry Wood(DL time and one well pitched game a year isn’t going to get
it to be the Cubs Golden Boy anymore)
3)Korey Patterson(what is this now, his 4th or 5th year in the league-it’s
getting old hearing-“Well he’s still young yet and learning.”)
4)Latroy Hawkins(at least Farns could thrown 100 mph and lose games,
maybe he should move across the border back to Gary
and hangout with Wacko Jacko, oh he’ll be in prison here
soon)
So this is my poll candidates for Cubs Whipping Boy in 2005.
Dolan I propose to you to set up a poll and see who wins this distinguished honor. You know I’m betting on Dusty all the way.
Baker Basher
Sure Bash. Whatever you need.
I’ve been using my Sarah Wood voice (Wheeeeeeee) ever since SamMe passed his physical, one hour late.
The hard-on some of the folks on this site have for Illinois is a little intense.
Do you honestly think Illinois would be undefeated right now if they were playing 2 games each against teams like Wake, Duke, UNC and Maryland?
Or, for that matter, Kansas, Oklahoma, and OSU?
I do.
What the fuck? Why exactly would I be hanging out with Michael Jackson of all people, Basher?
If Pierre Pierce would’ve been able to keep his weapon in his pants and not give his girlfriend a beat-down, the Illini would lose this Saturday in Iowa City.
Just like people predicted the Illini would lose at Wisconsin and MSU?
Iowa can’t hold the Illini’s jock, with or without Pierre Pierce. Credit is due for how tightly they played them in Champaign, but U of I would win 10 out of 10 games vs. the Hawks. Home or Away.
Part of having a good program is not recruiting felons that keep the coaches up at night wondering who they are assaulting, sodomizing or hitting over the head with an iron…God, I miss Shelley Clark.
Alford should have a long talk with Ferentz about recruiting guys with good character…that are not smart enough to get into Illinois. I’m outta line.
If we played ’em ten times, they might win nine.
But not this game!
Wait, no, actually, Steve, they’ll win this one, too. Tough shit, you blew your chance. Should have gone for the win in regulation.
Illinois should know all about having felons on their teams. They weren’t the most angelic athletic program through most of the last half of the 20th century.
Hey, screw you, Dave B.
Umm . . . didn’t I fence some stereos, and then drive on a suspended license? Oh, I guess you meant convicted felons. . . .
I assert that a man has no reason to be ashamed of having an ape for a grandfather. If there were an ancestor whom I should feel shame in recalling, it would rather be a man endowed with great ability and a splendid position who used those gifts to obscure the truth. by poker
The philosophic thesis that all knowledge is ultimately founded in experience has in the end led to a postulate concerning the logical clarification of any statement about nature. Such a postulate may have seemed justified in the period of classical physics, but since quantum theory we have learned that it cannot be fulfilled. by propecia

Religion is but a desperate attempt to find an escape from the truly dreadful situation in which we find ourselves. Here we are in this wholly fantastic universe with scarcely a clue as to whether our existence has any real significance. No wonder then that many people feel the need for some belief that gives them a sense of security, and no wonder that they become very angry with people like me who say that this is illusory. by free texas hold em

online poker Science is much closer to myth than a scientific philosophy is prepared to admit. It is one of the many forms of thought that have been developed by man, and not necessarily the best. It is conspicuous, noisy, and impudent, but it is inherently superior only for those who have already decided in favour of a certain ideology, or who have accepted it without ever having examined its advantages and its limits.
