FOUR offensive rebounds for Memphis to get a chance at the line.

I'm glad I can get CBS Seattle, which is showing A&M/Memphis. This has been a tremendous game.

And then two goals on three shots in the first two minutes of the third put the Canes up 4-3. What a weird game.

They got a little further away from sucking today, putting Mike Tirico in the guest chair in place of Wilbon on PTI today. Easily the best guest hosting job ever.

OK, it makes more sense if he was a 9th round pick.

I couldn't figure out why he wasn't kept, since he can just be hidden on the DL for the entire year and not even take up a roster spot. Unless he was drafted too high to merit keeping just for keeping's sake.

Good for Tubby. He was going to be forced out in Kentucky within a year anyway, barring a Final Four appearance next year.

Two players in a row that I would have taken next round.

And we think North American sports have crazed fans. This brings back memories of the Colombian soccer player who was executed following the 1994 World Cup after he scored an own-goal to knock Colombia out.

Nope.

Undertaker/Big Bossman HIAC does it for me.

Not really. He was quite average last year. He looks like a big part because the rest of their rotation aside from Doc and A.J. was somewhat below average. He won 15 games..Id think a 15 game winner would be an important part of any rotation. His offence won him 15 games. He averaged nearly 6 runs a game in run support. He could have easily gone 10-15 or something similar last year, and then you'd be saying he wasn't that great, which shows how useless wins are as a statistic.

I don't see how Hamilton is going to be RoY when he probably won't even be in the starting lineup on a regular basis. He'd probably be the Reds' fifth outfielder, and he doesn't have the option to DH.

If the Devils keep going like this, they're going to be playing the Senators.

CM Punk.

I picked the Padres second, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them win the division. I think Randy Johnson is done, to be honest, and I figure the D-Backs to be a couple of years away.

Anyone know why the Stanley Cup showed up on the set of PTI, of all places?

Either that or the fact that he had the same doctor listed as Matthews did.

Small point -- the Cards can't play the Cubs in the Division series, because they're both in the same division.

Yeah, I switched the Cubs and Cards in the division standings and forgot to switch for the playoffs.

I've seen some people ask for it, so here's the thread. If you want to predict other stuff (rookie of the year, home run champ, next guy to be named in the steroid probe, etc.), go ahead.
