What's yours?

Ian Desmond, Starlin Castro, Alcides Escobar, somebody you know that I haven't mentioned?

Who wins the game and by what score and what 2 matchups will be the key to the game

Heres Mine:

Saints, 31-28

Brees vs. Pats secondary

Saints Blitz packages vs. pats o-line

Who is better between the two 8-0 teams?

BQ: Who would win in a game between the '07 Patriots and the '09 Saints

This is to the people that say the Saints are overrated..

Give me 1 good reason (or as many as u want...i dont care)

BQ: prediction for the Pats/Saints game in a few weeks?

Which NFC Teams do you guys think will make the Playoffs?

Mine are: (in no particular order)

Eagles - McNabb, Westbrook, Jackson, McCoy, Maclin, Vick will be too much offense for them not to make the playoffs

Saints - Offense is already there...made defense A LOT better with new D Coordinator, signing Jabari Greer and Darren Sharper and getting Malcolm Jenkins...with healthy sedrick ellis, will smith, and charles grant should be a very solid defense

Falcons - Can only go up from last year with phenom Matt Ryan throwing to Tony Gonzalez and Roddy White and handing the ball off to Michael Turner

Giants - Best Defense in the league in my opinion...Hakeem Nicks should have a breakout year for the Giants at WR and their Running game is a sure thing with jacobs and Bradshaw

Vikings - If brett favre holds up, adrian peterson will lead them to the playoffs along with a solid year for percy harvin.

Cardinals - Larry Fitzgerald has a Career Season and Kurt Warner will have a solid year throwing it to Fitz and Quan and handing off to Beanie and Hightower

(Cardinals just barely beat out the Panthers and the Packers)

Projected Lineup

1. Kosuke Fukudome - CF

2. Ryan Theriot - SS

3. Derrek Lee - 1B

4. Aramis Ramirez - 3B

5. Milton Bradley - RF

6. Alfonso Soriano - LF

7. Geovany Soto - C

8. Mike Fontenot - 2B

9. Pitcher

Bench:

1B/3B/C - Jake Fox

1B/3B - Micah Hoffpauir

C - Koyie Hill

OF Reed Johnson

2B - Jeff Baker

Starting Rotation

1. Carlos Zambrano

2. Rich Harden

3. Ted Lilly

4. Ryan Dempster

5. Randy Wells

Bullpen:

Kevin Gregg (CL)

Carlos Marmol

John Grabow

Angel Guzman

Sean Marshall

Jeff Samardzija

Aaron Heilmann

I think the lineup is OK but they shouldve gotten a better power hitter than Milton Bradley and a significant upgrade at 2nd base

We shouldve traded for Freddy Sanchez and Adam Dunn, they

wouldve made the Cubs a complete World Series contendor

But they didnt so we r stuck with Bradley/Fontenot

I think our strongest point is our bullpen cuz we have a streaky lineup

and Dempster/Lilly have dealth with injuries

Plus the Cubs suck against decent pitching.

What do you guys think?

Will they make it past the 1st round?

Will they make it to the World Series?

Will they even make the playoffs?

No haters please

1st Trade

Cubs Get: Nyger Morgan

Nationals Get: Kosuke Fukudome, Sam Fuld

2nd Trade:

Cubs Get: Brian Roberts, George Sherril

Orioles Get: Mike Fontenot, Jeff Samardzija, Josh Vitters

Cubs Lineup:

1. Brian Roberts

2. Ryan Theriot

3. Derrek Lee

4. Aramis Ramirez

5. Alfonso Soriano

6. Milton Bradley

7. Geovany Soto

8. Carlos Zambrano (or whatever pitcher)

9. Nyger Morgan

- I think the Cubs need a true leadoff hitter and Brian Roberts would be a perfect fit (especially with the Cubs prior trade history with the O's".

- Nyger Morgan is that speedster the Cubs need that can put up a very good average day in and day out and can deliver just as good defense as Kosuke Fukudome did. (Juan Pierre would be a nice addition instead also)

- I really don't think Josh Vitters is going to pan out but other teams still think he has a big future.

- I know Lou is against the whole batting the pitcher 8th thing but i think a lineup like that would have stability and consistency everyday.

What do you guys think, please no haters

What was the bigger event

Barack Obama being the first black American president or a legend passing away.

An American Dream starting or an American Dream ending

What was the poster play/performance for the 2009 Eastern Conference Finals?

A) Lebron James 37 pts. 14 rebs 12 assists (scored/assisted on 31 straight points over 11 mins)

B) Dwight Howard takes down the Shot Clock

C) Lebron James Game 2 Game-Winning 3-Pointer

D) Rashard Lewis: Game-Winning 3 Pointer in Game 1 and Game-Tying 3-Pointer in Game 4 with 4 seconds left in reg.

E) Dwight Howard: 40 pts 14 reb in close out victory of the former favorite Cleveland Cavaliers

Your Favorite?

BQ: Magic v. Lakers Who ya got in how many games?

If they dont win or next year will the chances of Lebron James Leaving the Cavs go from 5% - 75%??

Q1: Yes/no to the Q

Q2: put ur own odds of him leaving if that scenario happens

Q3: Ranks the top 3 teams chances of getting him

Q4: If the Lakers season ends in disaster (for example, win todays gm but end up losing the series) will kobe opt out this year

Q5 If the Heat dont get Bosh will Wade end up goin to chi or elsewhere?

Answer the most u can

no shot at him...just wondering

Did they change voices in the 2nd commercial (ring) from the 1st commercial (chalk) for both kobe and lebron or did they use the same people as they did in the 1st?

Lakers win?

Artest VERY wrongly tossed? (not even a flagrant 1)

Farmars ears?

sound out!

How many point for:

Melo

Dirk

JR

Best answer will be based on accuracy

How many will Kobe go for today?

closest guess gets the 10

Heat:

FA:

Draft:

Philadelphia

FA

Draft

Bulls:

FA

Draft

Blazers:

FA

Draft

Top 3 Pgs:

1) Johnny Flynn

2) Ricky Rubio

3) Eric Maynor

(brandon jennings is too focused on shooting and ricky rubio only avged like 6 points and less than 8 assists in europe i think)

For the Heat, I say they either go out and get Ronnie Price/Flip Murray OR trade up in the draft to get Johnny Flynn cuz i think we need another TRUE pg even tho Chalmers has done a GREAT job it would be nice to have tht USEFUL backup pg w/ mario still starting

I also say they draft alade aminu and sign mehmet okur

What do u guys think about those teams and the best pgs?

If he had never had Phil Jackson as a coach, and never had Shaq, would he just be another vince carter....very very good, but not great?

Right now, he is batting .312 with 4 HRs and 15 RBIs

also, he has a .443 obp

He starting out just the way he did last year if not better

My Question is, do you think he will fade off during the mid/late season or keep it up?

The way he conditioned over the offseason is key
