NBA #1 picks in the last decade: Derrick Rose, Greg Oden, Andrea Bargnani, Andrew Bogut, Dwight Howard, LeBron James, Yao, Kwame Brown, Kenyon...
I'm a little skeptical that this is PR spin control, i.e. attempting to appease fans by saying "we tried" after the fact, so that they can't be...
That wasn't true in the case of Wolf — I can't find the article that specifically addresses it, but the Astros did not have to wait until May 31...
Right. Come on, you know me — I'm not one of the "Drayton is a cheap b*stard!" nutjobs. Of course he's going to spend some money, and he did. The...
You're not getting it. With the market in the shape it's in, it's fine not to pay Wigginton $7 million +. It's fine to pull the $27 million offer...
Lance's knee is fine. The concerns about Pence are overblown — he was a perfectly capable defensive CF. Not elite, but didn't hurt the team,...
Dunn's OBP was .386, while his career OBP is .381. That means he makes fewer outs than anyone in the Astros' lineup not named Lance Berkman. If...
That would be an absolutely amazing move, but like every other rumor from a non-Houston source this offseason, I expect it to be shot down fairly...
Except, you know, for Fisher having his hand in Allen's side/chest for the entire time.
Fisher rode him the entire way... of course, you only have to ask Brent Barry about how the refs treat Derek Fisher's "defense" in the final...
Um, how in the world was that not a 24-second violation? The Lakers absolutely did not have control of the ball when the buzzer went off.
You're nicer than me, then. :) I agree, I've seen far worse called over the years... I just hate the rule in general. It's another reason I far...
It's every analyst on the planet, dude. Before this thread, I hadn't seen anyone trying to rationalize that as a good call. It was a minimal tap,...
It has nothing to do with the strength of Round Rock and everything to do with how terrible these players are. In the case of Boone, you're...
You nailed it — it's quibbling over a close call, just like the roughing the passer on the same play, which was equally debatable and questionable...
Um, yes, it absolutely does matter. The yardage for the intentional grounding (10-15, depending on where he was) would first be applied, then the...
The problem I had with that play wasn't so much the roughing the passer as it was the lack of intentional grounding. I don't think it was a lot of...
I'm completely at a loss for words. http://www.baltimoresun.com/sports/baseball/bal-orioles203,0,359953.story So $3 million a year is too...
I understand that with kickers/punters, but what makes a holder different from a lineman? (In many situations the holder is a QB or another back.)...
Yup. I understand the argument of "no blood, no foul" in the final quarter of a big game, but the officials had called ticky-tack calls all game,...
