    MLB: Cubs close to trading Lee to Braves

    Ehhh, still reading that as specific to the Angels deal. What's he going to say? "I'm not going to uproot my family to go from one 'out of it team' to another"?

    MLB: Cubs close to trading Lee to Braves

    Never heard that. He just has the right to reject any trade... don't recall that he said he would.

    MLB: Cubs close to trading Lee to Braves

    I don't think may Cub fans have anything but respect for Lee. But he wasn't going to be back next year - and it's nice to see him go to a contender and have a shot instead of languishing the last 40 games in Chicago.

    MLB: Cubs close to trading Lee to Braves

    His rejecting that Angels trade doesn't seem like such a bad move now.... Edit: I should say, not a bad move for Derrick. It would appear that the Cubs might have got a prospect from the Angels, and won't from the Braves- although likely not much

    Stolen netbook

    The last couple Dell's I've bought had LoJack (or something like that) preloaded and free for a year. Of course, you have to set it up....

    Juilliard didn't have any schollies left.... :wink: You're right - the kid is here to get some time and exposure and punch his ticket to the next level. But it's nice to see he is choosing something with an interest (ie, will take it seriously) and not just something to fill his time and...

    Int - "(Coach Hoiberg) ... what have you heard about him... your relationship with him so far?" RW - "Everything I've heard is golden ... I love him, he's a good dude" :biglaugh: - Don't know why, but I love that quote.

    ISU ranked #9 in first AVCA poll

    Worth noting. Opening weekend opponents Florida (13) and Kentucky (14), as well as a week and half later UNI (24) No other Big XII teams.... (4 of our first 9 matches are against top 25 teams...)

    Second this. Particularly if you're just going to lay it on concrete anyway.

    Hilton...

    I'm 99.9% sure the answer to this is no... But if push came to shove.. any chance that either the floors in Sukup are removable?

    Hilton...

    I always felt the floods of '93 were God's punishment for having the Billy Ray Cyrus concert.... Did we schedule Miley for this fall, or something? (wouldn't that define irony?)

    Exactly. Only real issue I see is immediately east of Hilton and the loading area. That's a pretty narrow spot. But I'm sure some sort of barrier could be put up along the lines of what DSM/WDM did around 63rd and Grand. To be honest, with all the green space that exists, I'm not certain...

    I'm not engineer, but it just doesn't seem like it would be all that hard to levy around Hilton. Down the south side of Lincoln way, along the west side of University and along the north side of the road that runs between the main lots and Hilton/C.Y's. There's already an incline to the west...

    Agreed. I'd like to save on the commute, but it'll be pretty hollow in Wells for a week night match.

    Hilton...

    But seats down in the circle are different type, IIRC. And they did have a full house for the NU match last year. Won't matter - other thread says volleyball won't be in there anyway.

    That'll be interesting.... Volleyball overlaps basketball by several weeks. Including NCAAs, it goes into December.

    Hilton - Status??

    Chris tweeted this article earlier. No pics, but some good info. With Hilton dry, a difficult clean up begins | GazetteOnline.com I hope that isn't as ominous as it sounds

    Probably more likely locker rooms, electrical, etc. Floor is probably the least of their concerns.
