Fantasy American Football: Apologies if there is already one posted, couldn't find it in the search. Is someone going to start a football league? After taking a couple of years off, fantasy sports are calling me back. I wasn't ready to commit to baseball this year, but football seems to be a good idea. Anyone want to start it? How about trying fleaflicker.com?

It was a big mistake, but it didn't determine the outcome of the game. The three shouldn't have even counted since the clock started, and there shouldn't have been that much time put on the clock. Take off you tin foil hats.

Yeah, I never see what the big deal is. They've won two world series in the past decade. Say all you want about fire sales, franchise killing, etc, but I don't think Loria is the ass that a lot of people make him out to be.

I went to my first White Sox game this year. I know people are all happy they won the world series, and they don't want anyone to forget that. In fact, they say it about 3743242390489023 times before the game starts. Yes, we know, get on with the game. Also, the seats in the upper deck were so steep, I had vertigo the whole game. I'm not a fan, so I doubt I go back. However tonight, I'm going to go sit in the drizzling rain to watch the cubs lose to the dodgers. Now that's fan appeal.

Lose offense production from their previous center/pf? There wasn't much there to begin with.

I'm with Bill Simmons in that coaches hoarding these timeouts merely to advance the ball up the court is stupid. Just because you saved a timeout you don't have to bring the ball up? The other team should have a chance to force the issue. A timeout should merely be a TIMEOUT, a stoppage of play. There should be no advantage gain from it.

It's all sissyfied.I dont expect anything less from a team that's touted as winners all the time, with loser fans and bad management to pull what they did. Uh yeah, I take offense to this. Really classy to assume that all cub's fans are losers. We have our own share of losers, but no more than any other team. I do see the cubs touted as winners either, except for the brief anamoly in 2003, which ultimately ended up as a great act of losing.

I like it, it's like a sacrafice bunt in baseball. Adds an extra level of strategy.

The panthers need a running back. They can't rely on Foster again all season.

He should have been fired last year.

Oh my, for the first time in my lifetime of watching Duke/Carolina games, I think I'm finally sick of the hype that espn is giving it this year.

Technical foul called on referee
Who was it? Crawford? Bavetta?
