  1. Real nice return for the Sox. This trade gives me hope the Sox are all in on a total rebuild. Already deep in talks with Nats again for Quintana and Colorado for Abreu. Maybe the Yanks will take Robertson back.
  2. They tried like hell to get Benintendi, but Boston wouldn't budge. Almost didn't get Moncada, rumors are the supposed deal with the Nats was a bluff to get the Bosox to cover Moncada's money. I doubt it tho, our front office is not near that smart. Which leads me to the whole rebuild question. Sox can get a haul for Quintana and Abreu. I'll wait patiently to see if this all works out, the "rent a retread" method was getting us no where.
  3. Not tonight ;)
  4. Nice to see them playing well, but the Jets are hot garbage right now.
  5. I'm biased, as my brother is a WMU alum, but I think it's gotta be WMU. Undefeated is undefeated. They scheduled two B1G games, can't fault them for the Illini sucking. Navy will have some sentimental pull I'm sure, and they have a pretty solid resume as well. 50,000+ showing up in Detroit last night didn't hurt WMUs chances.
  6. I've said this before, I've known the Drew family for 40+ years. The classiest, most genuine people you'll ever meet. I think Scott had to have been switched at birth.
  7. Very happy Tom Allen is succeeding Wilson, on many levels. Continuity, recruiting, coaching chops, and unbridled enthusiasm. Win,win,win,win. As for the rest of this mess, I'll just tip my hat to CKW in appreciation. He took a job people weren't exactly lining up for and made us a respectable program. This is the first time in 70 years the keys have been passed on and the program wasn't trending down (excluding Hep-to-Lynch). Thanks coach. Now let's go win that bowl! Go Hoosiers!
  8. Fifth. Corso, Mallory, Cameron, and Lynch all won it on their way out.
  9. This is the piece of garbage that beat the snot out of a guy with Mellencamp's kid and got kicked off the team. Might want to take whatever he spews with a grain of salt.
  10. It's always something with this program. Get that boulder rolled to the top of the hill, and right back down she rolls. #sisyphuslives
  11. As much as that pains me, it made me chuckle :)
  12. Tip of the cap to the fans today. They showed up, they stayed, and they made noise. Good weather helped, but it was a great atmosphere. Congrats to the team for battling back and getting the win. 4 straight buckets, 4 conf. wins, and back to back bowls. Win the bowl game and put the cherry on top. Go Hoosiers!
  13. They'll probably win the appeal. But the "student"- trainer was doing a lot more than writing papers. I like Bilas, but he should probably shut up if he doesn't know the entire situation, and judging from that tweet, he doesn't.
  14. Just gonna drop this here http://sports.yahoo.com/news/notre-dame-forced-to-vacate-wins-from-2012-and-2013-due-to-ineligible-players-174729997.html
  15. Luck in concussion protocol. Thursday looking iffy. hlttp://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000744054/article/colts-andrew-luck-in-concussion-protocol
  16. Frustrating. Frustrating as all hell. And it's only magnified by the fact that we come so close against not just decent teams, but teams that are good to very good. As someone who follows Oklahoma as closely as IU, the conservative play calling knock isn't new for Wilson. When we hired him there was a sizable group that were happy to see him go for that very reason. And a couple years later they were hoping we fired him so they could bring him back. That being said, I think it is a very fair criticism and hopefully an area CKW and staff reevaluate this winter. Future still looks bright. Defense should be even better next year and Lagow, Ramsey, wildcat package et al, will all have an off season to gel. We'll have plenty of viable options on O next year. Win our 4th straight bucket and get to our second consecutive bowl game. It's progress. POTFB Go Hoosiers!
