    MLB Offseason Thread

    I am looking for only one real name. Barry Bonds. This could be the spark that gets Bonds discredited for what has achieved in the past few years.
  2. he did much more than just fund this operation. He played a major role in it.

    2008 NFL Draft Thread

    If it is enough to draft Jake Long, I would do it.

    Ken and Mick

    I grew up on Strader and Redmond covering the Wings and never really thought I would like whomever replaced Strader. I was overwhelmed and after a few years, they grew on me. Great tandum. Just wish Redmond could make more road trips tho. Murph isnt too bad tho.

    2008 NFL Draft Thread

    exactly. This is why around this time when the first mock drafts come out, I just look at the college players and see where they are being ranked at. They NFL team is pointless now because the Lions will improve their draft selection by losing their next 3 games.

    Why dont the Lions go after Derek Anderson? Give up a few draft picks for him. Oh that's right. They wont do it becase they are the Lions.

    2007 College Football Season Talk

    One paper says that, the other paper says this. Does anyone really know what is going on? Miles contacted by Michigan last week I also think that if Miles leaves for Michigan, all the dominoes will fall in the SEC. Spurrier heads to LSU in order to get back at Florida and Saban because he is Saban, leaves for the South Carolina job because he cant coach in one spot too long. And this was before the whole Houston Nutt thing too. around and around they go,.

    they traded with the 49ers last year. Niners got the pats 2007 1st round pick in exchange for the niners 2008 draft pick. Wherever the Niners finish, their pick will belong to New England. If McFadden is on the board tho, wouldn't NE pick him rather than Jake Long. That could be an interesting debate.

    Whats the main difference between Henne and Navarre? of course not. The Lions are picking a WR!!
  13. with the latest loss, the Lions cannot get to 10 wins and more importantly, the Kitna-O-Meter is officially broken.

    Inge wants out! Article
  15. I fell in the reverse trap. I watched some holiday movies (ELF today) and just kept tabs thru the game saying "not gonna get involved, not gonna get involved". Turns out I was on the edge of my seat at the 4th quarter and as soon as the fg went wide, I thought that I just saw this happen last monday when the Ravens could not put the Pats away. I felt sick for even giving this team my somewhat brief attention and total attention in the 4th. I want my time wasted back!!

    Michigan High School Football Playoffs

    Yup. Play calling really was poor from the Country Day side. They gave the ball to Gray everytime despite knowing that Marine City would swarm him. They should have ran a fake or had Gray as a decoy. Gray was still dominate despite being hurt. Scary to think what he could be like when he is healthy.

    If only the same thing could be said about Mr. Ford and the Lions.

    Article Turns out this deal might not have been done without the help of Ilitch. I love this part of the story.

    Best players ever?

    Wow! I actually agree with most of this list. That in itself is a rarity when you look at eva and my history in the college football thread. Instead of making my own list which would be very similar to yours, I will just comment on players I think are overrated and those that deserve to be there. Centers---Yzerman might be a little high at 3 but definately in the top 5. Beliveau and Messier would probably be 3, 4 and then Yzerman in my list. I might put Mike Modano in my list. LW---Luc IMO is the best LW but hard to disagree with Bobby Hull and Ted Lindsay ranked higher. Different era. RW---I might take away Joe Malone and put in Jari Kurri. As far as the rest of the 5, I am ok with it. Jagr is also close to the list but I cant put him in my top 5. D---Why do people love Bourque so much. Is it because he stayed with the Bruins so long. Lidstrom is a better D-man than Bourque IMO, hence I would rank him higher. Also Paul Coffey might make my list over Shore. As far as Orr at #1, I totally agree. If I had a greatest player ever in hockey list, Orr would probably be #1 with Gretzky #2. Goalies---This is the part of your list where i see a glarring hole. Roy. Love him or hate him, I still think he is in the top 5 of goaltenders of all time. Not willing to put him ahead of Sawchuk, but he deserves to be in the top 5. Now that I gave Roy some love, i feel sick so i am gonna go and lay down.

    You don't want Cabera to replace Inge and you don't want Willis replacing Miller, but you WANT Beltran replacing Granderson. I don't get it. Beltran and Granderson are both great centerfielders. You take away some of that outfield abilities if you ask them to play left or right instead. someone obivously doesn't know how many games are in the MLB playoff format. ALDS/NLDS are best of 5 games ALCS/NLCS are best of 7 games WS are best of 7 games Pitching edge probably goes to the Sox but lineup top to bottom clearly goes to the Tigers.

    How is Osgood not a write-in leader??

    ozzie isnt going to get a crack at the all star game based on that he is a write in vote. People are too lazy to ever scribble a players name down in an all star ballot, no matter what sport.
