    Black holes do not suck up everything in its path. A black hole has the same gravitational pull that the collapsing star had it doesn't suck anything really. If you were 91 million miles away from the star before it became a black hole you would still be at 91 million miles away from the black hole and you wouldn't get any closer. The only way something would get sucked into a black hole would be if it got to close to its gravitational pull. I doubt we have anything powerful enough to create a black hole. It takes a lot of energy to create a black hole.

    I like McNeal but I think Dominic James if he is available in the 2nd round would fit in with the Bucks better. Having Sessions as the starting PG and James as the 6th man or the #3 PG on the team. I believe James will be a good defensive PG in the league even with his height. James is a player that I believe would fit perfectly into Skiles coaching style. I believe there are other players in this draft that are like James who could fall to the Bucks in the second round. The top tier talent is really low though Lawson, Griffin, and others are really the only can't miss players in this draft. I'm not even sure that after Lawson and Griffin there really is someone who is a can't miss player. I believe the Bucks are going to trade out of the lottery or draft a foreign player and hope that they stay over seas for a couple of years.

    Maybe Weeks wanted his first home run ball of the season?

    I am praying that Rickie keeps this up throughout the whole year and shows us what we all thought he could be when he was drafted. I am knocking on wood to make sure I don't jinx Weeks. But wow Rickie has been playing good defensively and his hitting so far this year has been great. I'm praying that this isn't just a fluke and Rickie is really going to breakout this year.

    The thing is that if Gamel's bat is canceled out by his defense is it really an improvement over what we already have right now? Hall has been playing great defensively at 3B so far this year. A general question: Do you exchange poor defense and good hitting with good defense and poor hitting? Another question to ask about Gamel is where does he hit in the lineup? If you bat him 7th where Hall is batting that is a waste and you are not going to be getting the production you would want out of Gamel. Do you put Gamel 2nd? Have Prince bat 3rd Braun 4th Gamel 5th? If you put Gamel in the 2nd hole where do you put Hart? If you change up the batting order where do you put Hardy and Cameron? I love Gamel and what he could be but I'm not sure what the correct choice should be. Also if you bring up Gamel who do you send down? Duffy is the 4th OF, Nelson is out of options, McGehee would be your only RH bat off the bench when Hall is in the game you all know Rivera woudln't be used in a PH role unless the game was in the 13th or 14th inning. This is more complicated than just hurting Gamel's development or helping the Brewers win. I don't see Gamel coming up unless there is an injury to either McGehee, Nelson, or Hall.

    The first inning and the third time through the lineup are usually the hardest humps starting pitchers have to get over.

    I was about to post almost exactly what you wrote. Star Wars basically has the whole special effects slot covered for influences in that. Yes other movies have advanced it but the influence came from Star Wars. Toy Story definitely needs to be on there b/c of its influence on current movies like Shrek and any other computer animated movies. This is not really about current or old it is just about where the influence came from and basically that can only come from something in the past. Also the Superman movies is probably the start of the comic book to movie crave came from.

    The sarcasm meter is at level 100 with this thread.

    I wonder if the Yankee fans are having this discussion with Wang. Wang has a worse ERA than Suppan does. So there is a silver lining after all with Suppan.

    Only thing that really needs to happen is for Hardy to wake up at the plate. He has been by far the most disappointing and frustrating to watch at the plate so far.

    I don't know if this will help but a quick search on google came up with these two definitions first and second.

    It was a good game even though it was a loss today I think the Brewers came out ahead with this game. I like the approach at the plate the Brewers have been showing and the defense has improved over last year. A couple of goofs here and there tonight Rickie dropping the ball on the relay and throwing one in the dirt at 1st on the double play and Braun diving for the ball when he should have just had let it fall for a single. It looks like the Cubs are going to go with Marmol as the closer now or at least we can hope that they do this. I bet Lou just put Marmol in because he didn't want to see Gregg pitch to Weeks, Hart, and Braun again. Only negatives I saw was that Hardy still looks lost at the plate for whatever reason. Maybe he needs to be reinstated at the second spot or moved down until he starts to find his swing again. Hall looks good at the plate he looks to have more discipline and he was awesome at 3rd tonight defensively. Another thing Rivera needs to start more.

    If you could use a movie that would be easier at least to me it is. Starship Troopers would be a perfect example of this. A TV show that was canceled a couple of years ago would also be a good one to use. The TV show I'm thinking about is Jericho or something like that. There are a lot of political situations in that show. If you use Jericho I would choose something from the first season. The second one was rushed and it never really ran with the story. Jericho on Hulu.

    Very bad defense and some bad pitching will not win you many games.
  18. nate82
    Hardy and Hart look lost at the plate. J.J. more so than Corey.
  19. nate82
    And they got very little for him. They also got rid of Ceda I believe it is who also could have been in the mix. The Padres sure do love relief pitchers.

    Those trades are very rare. It would take VItters plus some pitching prospects that the Cubs do not have. The Cubs would need a third party to come in and have to give them something. It wouldn't be just what the Cubs have plus what they could get for Vitters from another team. The Padres would probably want Vitters also along with the pitching prospects. Look at the proposed Atlanta deal and look at the Cubs deal. The reported deal was Escobar, Gorkys Hernandez or Jordan Schafer, and one or two pitching prospects. This was reported in November. By using this basis it would take Vitters (About equal to Schafer), Fotenot, plus some pitching prospects the Cubs do not have. Do you know see why I am saying they do not have the prospects to trade for Peavy? I'm not ignoring Vitters at all I am including him in the deal and weighing his value into the trade and comparing it to one that was rumored to be on the table. Escobar was known to be on the table for Peavy Schafer, Reyes, and Morton were also known to be available to the Padres. Hanson at all times was not available. The Cubs need to bring in a third team to get the trade done and I don't see who they are going to trade to get the players needed to bring in Peavy. I doubt the Padres are going to just trade Peavy for nothing they will probably just sit on it until they get a trade they like.

    I don't see how the Cubs have the prospects to even get Peavy. Even with Vitters and Marshall. Heilman was never on their list of players they wanted he would have been just a filler piece in the trade. The Cubs DO NOT have enough pitching prospects to get a deal done. Marshall won't be traded for Peavy the Cubs will hold onto him untill his value is zero (does Felix Pie ring a bell?). Their was a reason why the Cubs had to get a third team involved in the trade talks for Peavy. The reason is obvious it is staring everyone in the face. The Cubs DO NOT have the pitching prospects the Padres are looking for. I doubt a deal was ever even close to being done for Peavy to the Cubs.
  22. nate82
    The Cubs don't have the pitching prospects to get a deal done and that is a fact. There is a reason why the Cubs were searching for a third or even a fourth team for the trade to even become viable for the Cubs. Money is not a factor for trading Peavy it is more along the lines of having Peavy on the payroll while the team is rebuilding. It just doesn't make sense to have Peavy when you are rebuilding. The Padres are losing value with Peavy on the roster as they are rebuilding. Peavy will be traded this year but it won't be to the Cubs unless the Cubs can find a third or fourth team to get involved with them. I don't see where the Cubs are going to get these young pitching prospects that will be needed to get Peavy.

    I thought it was the top 5 slots are picked and then slotted by record. Well hopefully the Bucks can lose more games and the other teams ahead of them win more games. Looks like the Bucks can only finish with the 7th worst record at best for the draft. Not very promising especially with the talent in this draft.
  24. nate82
    No it doesn't. Just look back a couple years ago the Bucks lost 1 or 2 spots in where they would have been picking. They also lost 1 spot last year in where they would have been picking. Record has nothing to do with the lotto other than how many ping pong balls you get.

    Bradley nearly injured himself in the game today against the Astros after rounding 1st base.
