How does Northwestern expect to earn their first ever NCAA bid with this OOC schedule??? Creighton or GT as your biggest win? Toughest true road game is at NIU? If they finish it undefeated, I think they still need to go 11-7 at the minimum in conf. play, with at least 3-4 wins against the top 5 teams. Schedule: Nov. 12 at Northern Illinois Nov. 17 at Texas Pan-American Nov. 19 vs. Arkansas Pine-Bluff Nov. 28 vs. Creighton Nov. 30 vs. Georgia Tech Dec. 13 vs. Long Island Dec. 16 vs. American Dec. 20 vs. St. Francis (Holiday Festival, NYC) Dec. 21 vs. St. John's/Davidson (Holiday Festival) Dec. 23 vs. Mount St. Mary's

If you like a write-in candidate enough to want to vote for them, shouldn't you at least make sure you know how to spell their name correctly before you enter the polls?

There was a Law & Order:SVU episode along the exact same lines. IIRC, the guy had a website with pictures of random kids in everyday situations, but it was used to try to help pedophiles from actually breaking the law, but admitting they have a problem and trying to control it. They tried to shut it down but didn't have an actual legal right to do so until he did something else illegal.

QUOTE (Jenksismyb**** @ Nov 5, 2010 -> 08:25 AM) anyone going to the NU-IL game at Wrigley? Wonder why they decided to go West-East instead of North-South like they used to with the Bears. Just pulled the trigger on two tix, was able to get them face. They are the most expensive ones, but are actually on the 30 yard line along the sideline so they should be worth it.

QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 08:48 PM) Mariners PBP guy Dave Niehaus passed away today. Fly away Dave, fly away. Wife's brother-in-law came into town last night. He grew up in Seattle, felt bad I had to tell him the news. Listened to the call of Edgar's double a few times. RIP.

JFP (only for 150 innings)

QUOTE (JPN366 @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 10:24 PM) So, when will Oakland trade him? Probably gonna hold onto him hoping he has a good enough season to be a type A, or at least type B free agent next year.

QUOTE (chisoxfan09 @ Nov 11, 2010 -> 12:45 AM) How about thinking of the radical and contemplating dangling Beckham for Colby Rasmus in a straight up swap? Maybe a A or AA filler from us? Sox already have a CF for the next few years, then you have to fill the hole at 2B, good luck finding a youngster as talented as Beckham. I'm not against acquiring Rasmus, but not be giving up another everyday player of the future.

These mentals lapses are killing me, cruising along then just giving up two goals in like 30 or 40 seconds and losing. You know its going bad when your Norris Trophy winner has to be benched. They do need to score more than one goal at home against a backup G though. I guess it could be worse, they could have New Jersey's $100 million man pulling this game ending move: Shootout Fail

QUOTE (knightni @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 05:42 PM) Try it again. I think that I fixed it. It works now, thanks! I was actually trying to send you my beer list.

So, I'm probably missing something obvious, but how the heck do I send a PM? I click on the poster's name and click "Send Message" and I get the error "You are not allowed to use the messenger feature on this board" I can't locate any kind of inbox or anything that the help section mentions, so I don't where that would be.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 12:26 PM) This is an awesome idea. http://www.nhl.com/ice/news.htm?id=543059 NHL All-Star captains will "fantasy draft" their roster from pool of All-Stars. What a crazy awesome concept. Meh. It might be cool to watch the captains "draft" the players, but it doesn't change the game all that much. It's still the best players in the league playing an exhibition "pick-up" game.

QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 11:58 AM) Yeah, I just can't imagine a Phil Jackson-led team going for the record and playing their starter's big minutes at 69-9 or anything like that... Jordan was about the same age as Kobe is now, but had only played 17 total games the two seasons combined, so I don't think rest was as big of a deal.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 11:38 AM) In the playoffs...if a team wins the toss, moves down the field and kicks a field goal, the other team gets a possession to match, or to get a touchdown to win. The motivation was...the occasional, but extant, "game that is decided entirely because a team wins the toss". Nothing changed in the Regular season yet. But, it is a good rule and I hope it gets put in there as well. I definitely prefer the current sudden death format, make a play on defense or lose. However, field goal kickers have become so accurate that I don't mind the new playoff rule as much. Teams need only to get to the 30-35 yard line and you have pretty good odds that your kicker nails it. I am fine with a team losing if they give up a TD on the first drive. I don't care if you never got the ball, don't let the other team march the length of the field.

For all the b****ing about overtime rules, the Jets/Lions game was the first time in 11 OT gamesthis season, that the game ended after only one possession.

QUOTE (Balta1701 @ Nov 10, 2010 -> 07:30 AM) Was the right side of the Yankee infield really THAT good on defense? Having a Gold Glover at SS makes the 2B & 1B look that much better.

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 9, 2010 -> 11:02 PM) Makes no difference. If they hadn't learned from last year, I wouldn't even have given them a shot in 2011. You misunderstood me. I agree that it should be deleted. I was referring to April 1st as April Fools Day, not the start of the season.

QUOTE (lostfan @ Nov 9, 2010 -> 09:34 PM) Yeah, 72-10 is pretty safe for the time being On pace for 51 wins. Thanks, ESPN.

QUOTE (SnB @ Nov 9, 2010 -> 02:46 PM) someone broke into my car overnight, shattering my window. All to steal an $80 radio. what a pain That's the worst. It's like, I'll give you the f***ing $80 radio. Just dont make me go through the whole process of getting the window replaced.

QUOTE (Soxbadger @ Nov 9, 2010 -> 09:23 PM) So Wade takes the last shot right? Nope. Eddie House, just like against the Hornets.

Did the announcers not see Wade's hand nail his wrist?

QUOTE (Milkman delivers @ Nov 9, 2010 -> 08:52 PM) I wouldn't have watched a game. Please delete this thread to save people heart attacks. Seriously though. Its not even April 1st

The 5 Jazz on the court were Millsap, Kirilenko, C.J. Miles, Ronnie Price, Kyrylo Fesenko
