Apparently the Bulls are still in on Mayo. Thats nice.

QUOTE (hi8is @ Feb 22, 2011 -> 01:04 AM) thanks for all the tips guys - keep em comin! =) Manny's Deli on the Southside. Close to the Cell. Great place to eat. Can get a little pricey though.

QUOTE (DBAHO @ Feb 22, 2011 -> 12:59 AM) It's damn confusing to keep up with who went where, here's as I understand it where everyone went; NY got - Melo, Billups, Shelden Williams, Anthony Carter, Renaldo Balkman. DEN got - Chandler, Felton, Galllinari, Mozgov, Knick 2014 1st rounder, GSW 2012 and 2013 2nd round picks, $3M. Then NY did this; NY got - Corey Brewer MIN got - Anthony Randolph, Eddy Curry, $3M. So right now the Knick rotation looks like this; PG: Billups / Douglas / Carter SG: Brewer / Douglas SF: Melo / Bill Walker / Balkman PF: Amare C: ? (Earl Barron will be signed I presume). On top of all that, looks like none of Felton, Gallinari or Mozgov are getting dealt to New Jersey at this stage. The Nets really want to move Devin Harris, the Mavs, Trail Blazers and Hawks are all really into him. The Rockets really want Nene, and I believe his contract is up at the end of the season, so Denver may not want to pay him long - term, so something could definitely get done there. You forgot Fields in the NYK rotation. Though I could see D'Antoni running out Billups-Brewer-Fields-Melo-Amare. God that team will get roasted alive defensively.

QUOTE (Chi Town Sox @ Feb 21, 2011 -> 11:27 PM) Knicks in the long run will be better because this will attract either CP3 or DWill IMO but I read an article on Gallinari vs. Melo and if you pretty much double Danilo's shots per game, he would score just as much if not more than Melo They won't have cap for DWill or CP3 unless they take huge paycuts.

Knicks are doomed. Apparently Gallo and Felton are gonna be swung to NJ. I'd assume they'd get Harris back and something else. Minnesota wins. Denver wins. New Jersey wins. Chicago can swipe a SG from Denver and win. New York...

QUOTE (danman31 @ Feb 21, 2011 -> 09:54 PM) Chauncey, Melo, Amare. Worth fearing despite no supporting cast? Not at all. The Knicks now have four good players Chauncey Fields Melo Amare Then nothing. Of those players, Fields seems like he has decent defense. Teams with strong defensive presence (Bulls, Celtics, Heat, Magic) will be able to shut down one of Melo and Amare and let the other get his. Two of their big 3pt threats are now gone. Just like the Magic trade, this makes them slightly better overall, but a much nicer matchup for the Bulls.

So apparently Melo deal is imminent to Knicks. Here's hoping they gut that team for him.

But can we really beat this epitome of studlieness?

Wait, I thought it was team specific. Then it's awesome. Watching every single MLB game though, nah. That's pretty damn horrifying.

+ = ?

If only I weren't going to college, this is right up my alley with Journalism. Damn you need for college degree, damn you.

QUOTE (Rowand44 @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 10:55 PM) One of the sportscenter anchors said it best when he said that it appears that Wade almost gets hurt in every game. That asshole is always limping around. Surprised they didn't have to roll him out of the arena on a wheelchair. Oh well. If he's not healthy Thursday, I won't shed a tear.

QUOTE (witesoxfan @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 09:49 PM) For schnitz and griddles Buehrle's FIRST start of the year (so not technically opening day, but I'm pretty sure his only non-opening day start was 2006) 2002 - 6 IP, 2 H, 1 R, 2 BB, 5 K (W) 2003 - 7 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 1 K (L) 2004 - 6.2 IP, 8 H, 3 R (2 ER), 1 BB, 1 K (ND, Sox lost) 2005 - 8 IP, 2 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 5 K (W) 2006 - 4 IP, 4 H, 3 R, 1 BB, 1 K (rain-delay halfway through, hence the lack of innings...Sox won) 2007 - 1.1 IP, 3 H, 1 R, 1 BB, 1 K (ND, Sox won) 2008 - 1.2 IP, 7 H, 7 R, 1 BB, 1 K (ND, Sox lost) 2009 - 5 IP, 6 H, 2 R, 3 BB, 3 K (ND, Sox won) 2010 - 7 IP, 3 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 3 K (W) Totals - 46.2 IP, 41 H, 19 R (18 ER), 14 BB, 21 K Average - 5.1 IP, 4.5 H, 2 R, 1.6 BB, 2.3 K Peripherals - 3.47 ERA, 1.18 WHIP, 2.7 BB/9, 4 K/9 I would say that the notion that Buehrle has been a bad opening day starter is way overblown. In fact, I would argue that, outside of 2 starts, he's been exceptional on Opening Day. And of those two, he was hurt in one of them.

Wade could be hurt. Rondo passes with .8 seconds left.

QUOTE (JoeCoolMan24 @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 06:50 PM) Not sure where the thread I previously made for this went, but it's not on the 3 pages in SLAM, and I can't find an archive of it. Anyway..... Rumor has it the demo will be released this week. I can't remember if they update the store on Tuesdays or Thursdays, but either way, I'm pumped. Thursdays. I also, am pumped.

QUOTE (flavum @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 04:55 PM) Word is Viciedo dropped more weight. Hopefully this will bode well for him in the outfield. Like.

QUOTE (Swingandalongonetoleft @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 04:29 PM) I remember reading that Nancy Faust would be getting replaced. Any word on if this happened? I kinda have this feeling it won't, and it'll just be sound effects and loud noises going forward. I know Boyer was looking for a new one. Sad if he can't find someone.

Crede was awesome.

QUOTE (kjshoe04 @ Feb 20, 2011 -> 03:01 PM) I'm not sure he'd be all that good. His problem would be that he can't palm the ball. Plus, his "Ball behind my head, elbows bent, while the teams other five plays stare" wouldn't work in a dunk contest. Thank God Jennings wasn't there.
