"As long as there are no Harry Potter posters on the wall, I will be fine and happy," Watson, 19, told PEOPLE at the Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince press conference in New York Thursday. "Oh God, it's part luck, isn't it. We'll see."
Daniel Radcliffe, however, saw an opportunity to tease his costar. "I really hope they are a really massive Harry Potter fan," joked Radcliffe. "I hope you walk in and the first thing you see is your face on a duvet."
Watson, who plays Hermione Granger, is moving across the pond in late August to attend an Ivy League college and earn a liberal arts degree possibly in English literature or Art. She admits she will be homesick.
"I will miss marmite, baked beans, London taxis and the rain!" Watson told PEOPLE Thursday night at the film's premiere at the Ziegfeld Theatre. "I may have to bring boxes full of marmite and baked beans with me."
When ask what kind of roommate she will be, Watson says she will be a polite and tidy one. "Cleanliness is good. Hopefully I'm reasonably okay to live with," she said.
Will Keep ActingThough she will be focused on her studies, Watson won't turn her back on the craft that made her famous.
"I definitely want to continue. I've managed to juggle and balance studying and working well enough to this point so I can't see why I can't keep doing that," she said. "But I am looking forward to being a normal teenager and want a normal experience for a bit. Just a little bit of normality for a while would be nice."
That's one of the reasons she'll live in the dorm. "If I'm going to do this experience, I'm going to do it properly and going to do it like everyone else," she said.
Watson admits she will need to brush up on her culinary skills now that she will have to cook meals for herself during late night studying breaks.
"I'm terrible at cooking," she said. "I live alone at the moment with a flatmate so I've kind of had an introduction to cooking but I need to improve."
She also confesses to be prone to kitchen mishaps.
"I've had tons of mishaps all the time. I've left the oven on many times where things overcooked and caused smoke and lots of other bad things." But Watson does claim one specialty: "I can make a fantastic bowl of spaghetti bolognese."

I HATE a team game being decided by individuals and I think there should be more incentive to winning the game the way it is suppose to be played... with that said, I think ALL games should be worth 3 pts and I think overtime needs to be tweaked....
If a tie after regulation - 4 on 4 for 5 minutes.
If a tie after the first OT - 3 on 3 for another 5 minutes.If there is STILL a tie... then a SO - FOR REG SEASON ONLY - Playoffs - play until someone wins
Win in regulation or OT - 3pts
Win in SO - 2 pts
Loss in SO - 1 pt
grand total of 3 pts for every game, if you don't win it in reg or OT, you actually lose a pt you could have won in OT - more incentive to win in reg or OT
I agree with the OT like that! Forget the shootout! If it is still tied, then I could live with a tie! The shootout is pointless because a team could make or not make the playoffs based on something that has nothing to do with the playoffs!
I understand why the NHL brought the shootouts to the games because of the strike season. But the really need to reconsider the shootouts. Teams are being left out of the playoffs because they are not a good shootout team!

"Outcasts United: The Story of a Refugee Soccer Team That Changed a Town," adapted for young people by Warren St. John; Delacorte Press, 226 pages ($16.99).
This is the amazing true story of how one person can make a difference. Luma Mufleh was born in Jordan and went to college in the U.S. She always loved soccer. Her decision to stay in the U.S. angered her family in Jordan so much they cut off contact with her and all financial support.
On her own in her adopted country, she was coaching private youth soccer teams in Atlanta when she discovered the community of Clarkston, Ga., a town where the federal government had resettled large numbers of refugees from around the world. Everywhere in town, kids were playing soccer (many couldn't afford shoes and played barefoot).
Mufleh decided to start a youth league in Clarkston for the refugees, battling obstacles including the lack of a decent playing field and town politicians who weren't too happy with the presence of so many refugees. (Her teams were the Fugees, short for refugees.)
The author, a New York Times reporter, adapted his book for young readers and it's a fascinating, exciting story. There's plenty of thrilling soccer action, but the memorable characters are the best thing about it, both the profiles of young refugees, many of whom had seen terrible things in their homelands and lived for years in refugee camps. The most interesting profile of all is of Mufleh herself, a very tough coach with a heart of gold, who is still devoting herself to both athletics and academic success for young refugees.

The Trojan War is one of the greatest events in Greek mythology and is the focus of such epic Greek poems as the Iliad and the Odyssey by Homer. According to legend, the war began following the kidnapping of Helen of Sparta by Paris, the prince of Troy. Sparta was a city-state in ancient Greece. Helen's husband, Menelaus, was the king of Sparta. He went to war with Troy to get his wife back.

Maxime-Billy Fortin, 26, was born in Haiti but was adopted into a Quebec City family and quickly became an avid figure skater. He has dreamed of skating internationally for Haiti ... Read more
Gee, I'd love to see this happen. It would give the skater a chance to compete internationally, and it would give Haiti a moment of good news. I doubt it would spark a skating tradition in Haiti, because they have no facilities, but it might create new fans, and any international success would be good PR for Haiti.
That's some article, by the way. A sobering thought, that diaspora Haitians who send money home represent about 20% of the country's gross national product. But good for them! They don't just leave and turn their backs. This is actually pretty common. I know people from several countries who send money home to the folks. One of the most heartbreaking aspects of crime stories in this country (and I'm sure in Canada, the U.K., and elsewhere) is when an immigrant shopkeeper or taxi driver is killed, and they say that the guy had a family in this country and was also supporting bunches of relatives back home. There are some seriously hardworking people in this world.

He does have the moves
It would be awesome if he were the first Haitian winter Olympian.
I hope he can find his birth parents, too, since he would like to find them.
There's nothing like the publicity of something like Olympics for that to happen.

I love Maxim's moves and have previously proclaimed him the most musical skater in the world! He deserves to be seen and enjoyed by the World so it would be great if he could represent Haiti to skate at Worlds and the Olympics. Moreover, I have a soft spot for Haiti. I went for a vacation there many years ago and, in spite of the excruciating experience of biting into a hot chili pepper during a regular black out and the sad views of abject poverty, I was deeply touched and impressed by the polite teenagers hassling for a living along with the sweet and savvy 4 year old children, and the happy, gentle, and artistic nature of the people in this poorest, and at the time the most oppressed, tiny nation in the Western Hemisphere. Haitian immigrants here seem to have maintained their joyous and gentle character.
The 2010 earthquake in Haiti greatly saddened me. The disaster in Japan was recorded by the ubiquitous cameras and its images played around the clock for days and seared into minds globally. In contrast, after the earthquake which collapsed cities and villages, killing over 220,000 and injuring more than 300,000, the US controlled the gateway to Haiti by immediately taking over the Haitian and Dominican Republic's airports and few were let into the disaster zones. The Haitians' suffering got limited press and soon forgotten. Two years later, little has been done to restore either the physical structures or people's lives.
Last year I met a self-made lady from the US who provided and raised funds to build a school in her native Haiti which is now providing free meals and education for 350 children. Our mutual friends have collected and refurbished computers from Montreal schools to be sent to the school in Haiti. I found out that it would cost a ridiculous $3000 to ship the quoted 30 computers so I tried to find a more economical way. All aid organizations I contacted do not ship any goods there, which is simply not an efficient way to help. I finally found how to ship the 43 computers for about $1800 but the slow and at times frustrating responses by people involved to complete the paper work has taken about two months. I figure even without filling a full container, it would still be much more economical to make a larger shipment but my friend is just anxious to ship this load off, which is costing him close to $150/month to store. Hopefully these computers will soon be on their way to the needy children.
I had a thread declaring NHL enforcer turned figure skater Georges Laraque my new hero who is also working to help his parents' homeland of Haiti, among his other admirable endeavours. I wish Georges, Maxime-Billy, and Haiti the best. They deserve it.

It's the inefficiency that's killing the process, SF. We did get a lot of news coverage over here, at least on the east coast, and a lot of people donated money. I gather that a lot of money and supplies made it over there and then just stopped dead. Not that this is an excuse to give up, but Haiti does tend to end up back in a trough.
A lot of people don't realize that Haiti was the second colony in this hemisphere to declare independence, after the United States. The heartbreaking thing is that the U.S. gave it no support, because the American South was too afraid that Haiti's successful slave revolt would inspire one in their own country. We were happy to support Bolivar and others in South America but not Toussaint L'Ouverture in Haiti. Haiti therefore had no allies to help "midwife" it during its difficult birth. In order for France to recognize its independence Haiti had to agree to pay a kind of tribute to France, which it did by taking out loans. It finished repaying its debt in 1947. That's about 150 years later! Then several generations of Duvalier dictators milked it dry.
I keep hoping that finally, Haiti will have a chance to start fresh. I'm heartened by the fact that many expatriates now living in the U.S. and Canada have maintained loyalty to Haiti and continue to try to help.

ROCKFORD — A university computer lab filled up quickly today with people hoping to meet the March 31 deadline to sign up for health insurance, a mandate that's part of the Affordable Care Act.
More than 40 in-person counselors from Boone, Stephenson and Winnebago counties and staff members with Get Covered Illinois hosted a daylong enrollment event at the University of Illinois College of Medicine at Rockford. People seeking help with enrollment were lined up at 9 a.m., an hour before the event officially started.
Most people need to have insurance by March 31 or face a penalty when they file their taxes next year.
State and federal officials released updated enrollment numbers Tuesday. Because of glitches and delays with the federal healthcare.gov website in the fall, numbers are falling short of initial projections.
About 4.2 million people have enrolled in the Health Insurance Marketplace, which are health plans that are run by the federal government, by individual states or through state-federal partnerships. The Illinois marketplace falls into that third category.
As of that same time period, 113,733 people had enrolled in the Illinois Health Insurance Marketplace. About 200,000 people have enrolled in the expanded Medicaid program, which is for low-income residents, seniors and the disabled.
Local officials were pleased with the early turnout for Tuesday's enrollment event. More than a dozen agencies will be doing outreach in the next few weeks to get people signed up for health insurance, said Steve Haight, regional outreach coordinator for Get Covered Illinois.
Today's enrollment event at the college runs until 9 p.m.
Haight's territory covers 28 counties. He said the groups are trying to reach younger residents who have been slow to sign up and remind people that about 75 percent of those who have signed up so far have qualified for tax credits or cost-sharing subsidies that help them pay for their monthly insurance costs.
Meeting with counselors — who are also called navigators — to get help with enrollment is also free.
Eric Quincy of Rockford came to the university to get more information about the signup process. The self-proclaimed procrastinator said he'd been hearing about insurance enrollment for a while but heard about the event Tuesday morning while watching TV.
Quincy applied for Medicaid, but there's a backlog of 30 to 60 days for people to hear back about those applications. So he left a little frustrated about not knowing what type of insurance he might have one day.
"I don't like fines," Quincy said. "I have enough of them. I don't need anymore."
Page 2 of 2 - Haight said people should be able to avoid fines if they start the enrollment process before March 31.
Quincy has been applying for jobs but hasn't had a full-time job in about six years. Legal issues stemming from that time have complicated the job-search process.
"I know by law you're supposed to be covered, but if you don't have a job, what are you supposed to do?" Quincy said. "I'm either approved or I'm not approved.
"I'm on hold until I find out if I was approved, and then I go from there."
Andrea Rasmus of Rockford initially was denied Medicaid but plans to appeal the decision. She works a retail job and sought help Tuesday with the next steps she has to take in finding insurance.
Rockford resident John Vasquez's situation is similar to Quincy's. He applied for Medicaid, but he has to wait to find out whether he'll be approved.
He has a limited income and worries about affording other expenses such as food and rent if he has to pay for insurance.
"I do my best to work," Vasquez said. "What about the people who can't afford it?"

A sharply divided state Superior Court on Wednesday vacated the first-degree murder conviction of Paul Aaron Ross and ordered a new trial for the Hollidaysburg-area man.
The court, by a 5-4 decision, said Ross' court-appointed attorney, Thomas M. Dickey, did not have enough time to prepare his defense and that the prosecution was improperly allowed to introduce so-called "prior bad acts" Ross allegedly committed against other women.
Ross, 40, was convicted in 2005 for the 2004 murder of Tina Miller, 26, at Canoe Creek State Park.
"This is really a two-issue case. The court not only saw that we should have had more time to prepare - something that would have caused a new trial on its own - but also that the bad acts testimony alone was enough for a new trial," Dickey said.
"In cases like this, you always defend the Constitution. It's always the big cases like murder where the Constitution gets attacked. We're pleased with the decision, but we don't feel good about this death," he said.
Ross hired Dickey before the trial, after firing the public defender who was representing him. Dickey asked for a continuance, but Blair County President Judge Jolene G. Kopriva refused.
Because of the refusal, Kopriva "manifestly abused" her discretion, the five-judge majority ruled.
Dickey likened it to "flying by the seat of his pants."
"Attorney Dickey had to give his opening statement to the jury without knowing the opinions of his expert witnesses, one of whom (a criminologist) had been retained within days of the start of trial and was still reviewing the bulk of the Commonwealth's physical evidence and formulating opinions as the trial proceeded," Judge Christine L. Donohoe wrote for the majority.
The majority - including Judges Sallie Mundy, Judith F. Olson, Paula Francisco Ott and David N. Wecht - also said Kopriva abused her discretion by allowing the prior bad acts testimony from three of Ross' former girlfriends.
"The law states that when you start using bad acts in a trial, it strips away a person's presumption of innocence," Dickey said.
The other four judges disagreed with their colleagues.
"My careful review of the certified record reveals: 1) that Ross received consistent and appropriate legal representation; 2) that Ross' experts were able to assist Ross' counsel in preparing a defense; 3) that Ross' requests for additional preparation time were properly considered and honored by the trial court; 4) that Ross suffered no prejudice warranting a new trial; and 5) that the evidence of prior bad acts was admissible," Judge Cheryl Lynn Allen wrote.
President Judge Correale F. Stevens and Judges John T. Bender and Jack A. Panella joined in the dissent.
The new ruling came after a panel of three Superior Court judges ordered a new trial in May 2011.
"We asked for an en banc [nine-judge panel] appeal because we thought the original ruling was incorrect," Blair County Deputy District Attorney Wade Kagarise said. "We continue to believe the decision is incorrect but we respect the court's ruling. There were very strong opinions on both sides of the issues; the minority well stated our position."
The ruling may be appealed to the state Supreme Court, something being strongly considered, Kagarise said. District Attorney Richard Consiglio will seek the death penalty against Ross if the new trial order stands, Kagarise said.

9 Works of Comedy Genius Hiding on YouTube
In the spirit of Happiness Week here on Cracked, I decided to put my unhealthy affection for stupid videos to work and bring you some of the best, most underviewed and underrated videos hiding on YouTube. If you have a day that absolutely needs to be wasted, you can check out parts one and two here and here. And if your life is constantly weathering the crushing, icy grip of depression, you can find many more right here on our forums.
#9. Exploding Actresses
I am convinced that Simone Rovellini is the greatest man who has ever picked up an editing hammer. Or whatever it is that people use to modify videos. A few of his YouTube videos have broken a million views, but the "Exploding Actress" series definitely needs to be seen by more people. And by "more people," I mean "everyone who has ever lived or will ever live."
The idea is simple, but the execution is not. He takes clips from famous movies and picks the absolutely perfect moment for the actress's head to explode. And then he makes it explode right off of her goddamn neck. He explodes Jennifer Grey in Dirty Dancing ...
... Meg Ryan in her famous "orgasm" scene from When Harry Met Sally ...
... and even Julia Roberts in that one movie about whores and love.
The exploding heads by themselves are pretty funny, but it's the reactions of the people around them that really push it over the edge for me. In the original dance scene from Dirty Dancing, the father angrily gets out of his chair because there's no way he's going to let that filthy dancing asshole touch his daughter, and he's about to start some street shit. But add in the head explosion ...
... and suddenly, his expression reads, "Nobody makes my daughter's head explode, bucko!"
I could easily watch these until the end of time, and there is no reason why Simone couldn't make all the money in the entire world doing these videos.
#8. Demon-Possessed Trout
This is one of those videos that starts out just kind of chuckleworthy -- funny but nothing special. It's a novelty singing fish that you can find at any random hunting store or Cracker Barrel, and as it sings, the voice periodically slows down under what appears to be failing batteries or a bad audio device.
But watch it all the way through and you will wake up from a devil-induced blackout, holding a pair of fabric scissors and questioning the validity of ears.
It sings the early 1960s hit "Do Wah Diddy Diddy," and while the fish stays flat and stationary, nothing appears to be wrong. Well, besides the fact that it's a plastic mounted trout that's singing a cheesy '60s pop song. But as it sings, it's also programmed to flop around. And that flopping motion is what causes the vocals to slow to a crawl ... and then belt out the longest, darkest, most evil sound ripped directly from the impacted bowels of hell.
And let's face it, if demons do exist, they will come exactly in this form.
But like most of these videos, there's a kicker. It only sings the famous "do wah diddy diddy dum diddy do" part when it goes back to a resting position. So at the 22-second mark, the fish starts vomiting souls and going full-on Linda Blair for 12 full seconds ... then cheerfully returns to the bouncy, bubblegum pop song. The abrupt non-transition plus the contrast of demon versus innocent goody-two-shoes singing is the most jarring thing ever, and if I see this video a hundred times, I will laugh every damn time.
Oh, as long as we're on the subject of fish and music ...
#7. Speed-Rapping Goldfish
It's a goldfish lip syncing to Busta Rhymes' extremely fast rap part in Chris "I'm a Fuckhead Piece of Rotting Cock" Brown's song "Look at Me Now." I honestly wish I was a talented enough writer to say something that would make this video funnier, but alas, I am not. It's exactly what it should be in length, style, and content, and it doesn't try to be anything more. And for that, we thank you, person who looked at a goldfish and immediately thought, "This needs some Busta Rhymes."
#6. Ultimate Crack Smoking Warlock
My biggest love in video games is making the stupidest character possible, and after watching hehu42's video, I realized I still have much room for improvement.
He's playing WWE '12, which gives you a pretty healthy amount of room for character creation, including the ability to assign nicknames that the announcer will call out during your intro. In this case, that name is "Ultimate Crack Smoking Warlock." And that's exactly what comes out of the curtains.
If that was all there was to it, it wouldn't be in this article. Even if you choose to ignore the fact that there's smoke billowing out of his staff (which is obviously a warlock's version of a crack pipe) and more smoke coming out of his face (because Ultimate Crack Smoking Warlock always exhales crack smoke), when you see this thing walk, all the planets align in an astral, ethereal, crack smoking harmony.
Now, I understand that people who smoke crack don't actually walk around like that, but YOU WILL NOT DENY ME THIS PLEASURE! From now on, in my head, that is how all crackheads walk. Especially if they're warlocks.
And as long as we're on the subject of video games, we might as well get this out of the way ...
#5. The Piano Car Mod from GTA IV
A car shaped like a piano would be pretty funny. A guy driving around an actual piano would be even funnier. A guy driving around a piano, ramming into taxis and police cars, while simultaneously shooting a handgun and playing Vanessa Carlton's "A Thousand Miles," is perfect. If this video was 10 hours long, I would watch every goddamn second of it. Work would have to contact me by clairvoyance because I would shut off my phone and all messaging programs until it was done.
And then I'd start it over and find some suitable alternative for sleep.

Deas finished with 25 points and now has 1,014 for her career. Deas scored the 1,000th point of her career in the second quarter on a layup.
"It's a great accomplishment for anybody but for her to get it her junior year is a little extra special," I-Prep coach Chris Gelsomino said.
Jacque Law had 14 points and six rebounds as Pioneer earned a 42-38 ECIC III win over East Aurora.
GI hockey blanks South

Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
How Many Losses?
W - Sonnanstine (8-3), loud domes, cowbells
L - Zambrano (8-3), soreness and discomfort, opposite field singles
S - Percival (17)
Things to Take from This Game
1. Cheap Runs
The Devil Rays scored a run in the first when DeRosa missed a line drive that allowed the runner to come around from first. It was a pretty bad miss by DeRosa. In the third the Devil Rays scored four times on a seemingly endless series of controlled swings producing opposite field singles.
2. Missed Spots, Calls
Zambrano didn't have much command of the fastball, missing up in the zone with some frequency. The home plate ump didn't have much command of his strike zone, either. It made for a bit of a bumpy game. But other than the third, both Z and Sonnanstine worked quickly and effectively. Cotts gave up a leadoff walk, but Wuertz got through the rest of the game without incident.
3. Missed Opportunity
The Cubs had a great chance to score in the fifth, with the bases loaded and no outs for Theriot, Lee and Ramirez. Theriot beat out a potential GIDP to score one run, but Lee and Ramirez couldn't drive the other runners in.
4. Another Wild Ninth
Soto makes up for last night's near-miss, and lines a home run off of Percival in the 9th, to make the game 5-4. DeRosa then walked, but Percival managed to nail things down from there. Another dramatic loss.
5. Uh. Oh.
Z left the game with two outs in the seventh after throwing a pitch to Eric Hinske. Soto saw something, and immediately got up, motioned to the dugout, and all went out to the mound. Z left and as of this posting has "Right Shoulder Discomfort" Edmonds had left the game in the fourth with "Left Foot Soreness." With Reed Johnson hobbled by a strained back, Fukudome had to play center. As per usual, stay tuned for updates.
Your "they're still the Devil Rays, no matter what their marketing department thinks the focus groups want" details, below.
Game Recap
Inning 1 - Top
- Fukudome bounces the first pitch to Iwamura at second, 4-3 putout
- Theriot with a smash to third. Longoria makes the 5-3.
- Sonnanstine is working very quickly. He has an interesting delivery, where he seems to really sling his right, throwing arm way down and around like a windmill. Just as I say it, Brenly points out that he also has a hitch in the windeup as he comes down with the leg.
- And Lee grounds out to Aybar at first, unassisted. Very fast top of the first
Inning 1 - Bottom
- Z also working very briskly. Iwamura walks on a full count. Looks like he's missing with the fastball.
- Crawford laces a slicing liner into left-center. DeRosa partially overruns it, but the ball is still just directly over his head when the ball hits off his glove and rolls to the wall. Error on DeRosa. Iwamura scores, Crawford on second. Pretty unfortunate miss, there.
- Called strike three on an inside fastball to Upton.
- Hinske flies out to Edmonds. Crawford goes to third.
- Longoria gets brushed back a bit. Then taps out to the catcher, 2-3 putout. Inning over, 1-0 Devil Rays
Inning 2 - Top
- Lots of Cowbell and other percussive instruments in effect at the Dome
- Ramirez singles up the middle, left of the shortstop
- Edmonds thinks he has walked (and so did I) but the ump calls it strike 1. Another fastball in for strike two, full count.
- Really have the percusion working. Inside the dome, it reminds me of the few bits of Japanese major league games I've seen on TV
- and Edmonds K's on a fastball
- It really sounds like it could be a playoff game at Tropicana. PRetty neat.
- Soto just barely tips a changeup that would have been strike three. Drops out of Navarro's glove.
- Soto hits a slow bouncer, Longoria comes in on it and turns a 5-4-3. Yesterday and today are the first two games I've had a chance to watch Longoria, but his D seems to be as good as advertised.
Inning 2 - Bottom
- Floyd chops one off the plate. Z waits for it, patiently throws to first, gets Floyd by a step.
- Aybar grounds 6-3 to Theriot.
- Navarro fights off an inside fastball, lining it over Cedeno for a single into right.
- As Brenly observes, Z getting his fastball up
- Bartlet grounds the first pitch into a routine 6-4. Another quick inning
Inning 3 - Top
- DeRosa pops to second
- Hoffpauir lines a single just in front of Upton in center.
- and Cedeno grounds out to Longoria, who makes another really fine play coming in on a ball, reaching across his body one way and then throwing back across his body on the run. Hoffpauir to second
- Fukudome lines a double down the right field line. Nice job pulling the inside fastball. Hoffpauir scores. Crowd still going wild.
- Theriot lines one back through the middle. I didn't think there'd even be a play at the plate, but Upton charges, makes a fantastic throw home. It's only a bit high, and Navarro has to go up for it as Fukudome slides in for the run. 2-1 Cubs. Theriot takes second on the throw.
- Lee K's swinging
Inning 3 - Bottom
- Hmm, this game is also on ESPN. I learn this as Len is pointing out that Carlos has to wait an extra half-minute between innings, due to the national-TV advertising. Between that on not hitting, and Len and Bob speculate he might be antsy.
- Iwamura walks again.
- Crawford lines one to Cedeno's left. He dives for it, deflecting off his glove and rolling slowly away into right field. Iwamura to third and Crawford to second. I didn't know Crawford was having leg troubles, but yeah, he's definitely running with a limp
- Upton lines a fastball up in the zone, outer-half, back to center. Edmonds gets to it before it goes to the wall, Iwamura scores with Crawford holding at third, Upton at first. 2-2 game
- and Hinske goes opposite field to left, scoring another run. Z still lacking command of the fastball.
- Longoria fists one inside-out, rolling it past Cedeno's left and into right field. Runner on second comes in to score, runners still at 1 and 2, still no outs, 4-2 game. Devil Rays finding all the holes.
- Floyd with a big swing, pops out to Cedeno. Floyd makes a big windup to slam his bat into the ground, but then thinks better of it.
- Yet another oppo-field hit, this one by Aybar. Run scores, still 1st and 2nd. 5-2.
- When did the Devil Rays put in an aquarium tank behind right field, full of Devil Rays?
- Navarro walks, loading the bases.
- Lieber warming up.
- Bartlett rolls one to Cedeno, who turns a nice 4-6-3 with Theriot. Inning over, 5-2.
Inning 4 - Top
- Ramirez strikes out looking at a pitch he thinks is high and inside.
- and now the first pitch to Edmonds is a called high strike, and he's not too fond of it.
- Kirwan Danly (sp?), your home-plate ump. Now Navarro isn't happy with the second pitch.
- Edmonds pops out to the pitchers' mound in the left field foul territory
- Soto lines the first pitch he sees off of the very top of the wall in left-center for a double.
- DeRosa grounds to Bartlett, inning over
Inning 4 - Bottom
- Edmonds has some sort of injury. Murton goes in to left, moving DeRosa over to right, with Fukudome over to center. Reed Johnson is unavailable due to a strained back that he aggrevated running out of the box on his game-ending bunt attempt last night.
- Iwamura promptly flies to Murton in left.
- Crawford rolls out to Theriot.
- and another grounder to Theriot, Upton out. Nice rebound from last inning
Inning 5 - Top
- Hoffpauir lines one just to Aybar's left at first. Into the corner, double.
- Cedeno walks.
- 3-0 on Fukudome. And now walks him. 2 walks in a row from one of the best strike-throwers in baseball.
- Bases loaded for Theriot.
- Curve for strike one to Theriot.
- Theriot chops a pretty routine-looking double-play ball to Iwamura. Theriot runs like hell and beats out the relay at first. Run scores, runners 1 and 3, 5-3 game. Extra helping of scrap served on that play.
- Lee looks bad swinging at a low breaking pitch for strike three.
- Ramirez flies to Hinske in right. Only one scores with bases loaded, no outs, and the 2-3-4 guys due up.
Inning 5 - Bottom
- Cute footage of the Devil Rays mascot miming Theriot's stretching routine before the game.
- Hinske grounds to Cedeno.
- And now, footage of Raymond gyrating at Theriot. Oh my.
- Edmonds leaves due to "left foot soreness."
- Longoria K's looking, inside fastball
- Floyd pops to Theriot. Another easy inning for Z
Inning 6 - Top
- Murton christens his appearance in this game by hitting a grounder. Gets past Bartlett for a single.
- Sonnanstine departs.
- J.P. Howell in.
- Soto linesone back up the middle on a hit and run, but Iwamura is covering the bag and the ball winds up being hit right to him for a 4-3 double play. Ouch.
- DeRosa grounds to Bartlett, inning over.
Inning 6 - Bottom
- Aybar hits a high drive to the warning track. DeRosa makes a very small hop to catch it at the wall.
- Navarro squibs one to Ramirez, out.
- Bartlett with a soft liner into shallow center. First runner for the Devil Rays since that awful third inning
- Iwamura with an easy 4-3 to end the inning
Inning 7 - Top
- Hoffpauir with the easy ground-out to first
- Cedeno fouls one right off the top of the toes on the left foot. Owwie.
- Cedeno then hits a chopper behind the mound, beats Iwamura's throw to first.
- Cedeno runs on a full count, and Fukudome pulls one to second. Cedeno hops over it, Iwamura has to go to first base.
- Theriot hits a soft liner to Iwamura, inning over.
Inning 7 - Bottom
- Z walks Crawford to start the inning. Umpire is consistent in his inconsistent strike zone, at least.
- Upton hits a hot shot to Cedeno's left. He goes down to one leg on a slide to get it, throws to second from that position, and Theriot makes the return throw for an easy DP
- After his first pitch to Hinske, Soto calls to the bench to alert them to some physical concern with Z. The trainer comes out to chat with Z.
- Len and Bob trying to figure out if Lou had waived to the pen or not as he came out to the mound. Replay shows he definitely gestured towards the bullpen, but they think he might have then tried to back out of it. In any case, Z winds up coming out, somewhat reluctantly. Soto definitely noticed something wrong, he got up very quickly after the last pitch, walked to the mound while waving into the dugout.
- Cotts in.
- And he throws three balls to walk Hinske
- WGN shows a replay of Carlos in the dugout, talking to the trainer and Lou. As he does, he moves his left arm up to touch his front right shoulder, sort of above the pectoral. Len and Bob are not thrilled to see this...
- Wuertz in.
- Hinske runs on a 3-1 pitch. Strike, safe at second.
- Longoria K's swinging at a low and inside pitch
Inning 8 - Top
- Gabe Gross in right for Hinske, Wheeler in to pitch
- Lee with a lazy fly to Upton. Doesn't look too happy with himself
- Wheeler really saws off Ramirez, easy roller to second.
- Murton grounds to Longoria
Inning 8 - Bottom
- Long battle, 3-2 count on Floyd. Finally walks.
- Gomes runs for Floyd at first.
- Aybar chops a grounder to Ramirez, 5-4-3 DP.
- Initial report on Z: "Right Shoulder Discomfort."
- Navarro K's swinging
Inning 9 - Top
- Percival in.
- Soto smacks a fastball down the middle for a big home run to left. No doubt about it. 5-4 game.
- DeRosa walks.
- Hoffpauir flies out to Upton
- Fontenot hits for Cedeno
- Like last night, Percival really looks like he's laboring with each pitch.
- Crowd on its feet, making a ton of noise. Lots of Cowbell.
- Full count on Fontenot.
- Flies out to Upton in left center. Two outs. Nuts.
- 2-2 count to Fukudome, and Percival picks now of all moments to break out a big slow curveball. Fools everyone, called strike three, game over.

Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Cardinals lose, Cardinals lose 3-2. Somehow it still doesn't help that much tonight.
Even if we do not have Z for a couple of months
I still like our chances. Our starting staff minus Z is still better than St. Louis or Houston and is probably the equal of Milwaukee. This team can still win the NL Central and in the Playoffs anything can happen like Jeff Weaver becoming Don Drysdale.
Levine update on Z
He is flying out of St. Pete tommorrow morning to Chicago for a MRI. The training staff does not exactly what it is but they doubt its serious.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
I liked it better when Daryle Ward was Daryle Ward instead of Mike Fontenot being Daryle Ward.
Needs more Daryle Ward.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
heard that.
Sidney Ponson will not be coming to our rescue
as he signed a deal with the Yanks. It should be fun to watch if he can beat Hank in their quest to have the most druken rants to the NY media.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Dear Cubs,
Please beat the f***ing Devil Rays at least once.
Thank you,
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
morning papers not adding much on Z, probably will be news by gametime tonight though.
from the sun-times:
''There was a funny pitch that I felt something in my arm, and then the last pitch that I threw in the game, I dropped my arm a lot because I couldn't go back over the top with my arm,'' said Zambrano (8-3), who was charged with the 5-4 loss to the Rays.
He's scheduled to fly this morning to Chicago to meet with team doctors and undergo an MRI.
When asked whether this injury was related to the stiff neck a month ago that the Sun-Times reported radiated into his shoulder, Zambrano said, ''Probably, yeah. But at this point, I don't know anything. Let's see what happens [today], and hopefully it's nothing bad.''
''It was something out of the blue,'' said Soto, who immediately waved for Piniella after Zambrano's first pitch to Eric Hinske with two out in the seventh. ''It was a [split-finger pitch], and he made a funny face, so I went out there. He never told me [anything was wrong]. But I knew something was up.''
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Depending on the results of the MRI, we'd have to think that this could accelerate Hendry's acquisition of another bonafide starting pitcher.
Who is actually obtainable for less than four Cubs players that would make a difference?
And, at what point does Marquis revert back to his suckage?
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
T-minus 5, 4, 3, 2, 1....
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
A win tonight will mean a .500 road trip. As Ryno states - we GOTTA win ONE!
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Ken "Kenny" Williams can blow me:
Asked Wednesday about the different environments that surround the teams, Williams pulled no punches.
''It is so different,'' Williams said. ''You might as well build a border, a Great Wall of China on Madison, because we are so different. We might as well be in two different cities.
''The unfortunate thing for me is it's a shame that a certain segment of Chicago refused to enjoy a baseball championship being brought to their city. The only thing I can say is, 'Happy anniversary.'''
Redheaded Step Child
The Sox continue to push "the woe is us syndrom" and its becomes self fulfilling.
I'm happy they won so they would stop their bitching and whining about weather being bad when they are in town, umpire conspiracies and the number of words that are printed about them in the newspaper. But I guess it didn't.
It's not Cub fans fault that the Sox were in the lowest viewed WS in recent history, that their fans don't come out to games, and they have a nut for a manager.
Poor Kenny, maybe his owner can figure out away to lead ownership to lock out all the players the rest of the year or maybe have another white flag trade.
When the Cubs win the WS the Sox will be more an afterthought than the Chicago Sky in this town.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
What an unbelievably low-class organization that is. Can you ever imagine Jim Hendry saying something like that about the White Sox? Not in a million years.
And if the Cubs win the World Series are Sox fans going to rejoice? Hell no. Just because we're in the same city doesn't mean we have to cheer them on in the playoffs. Because we're 90 miles away from them, should we celebrate the Brewers if they win?
Here's a thought - if you want to be a popular team, don't build your stadium in the middle of the ghetto, where people have literally found bullet holes in the seats.
Go to hell, Kenny. Enjoy your world series no one gave a shit about, you no-class scumbag.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
But, can you tell us how you REALLY feel?
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
The only thing I can say is...
Headline: Blind Squirrel, Nut Found
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
"The Sox continue to push "the whoa is us syndrom"
Did you mean, "Woe is us...?"
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Cubs haven't lost 3 in-a-row all year. Why start tonight? Cubs 7 Rays 3
Nothing to the Crisp rumors according to Wittenmeyer
other tidbits from the article:
* Reed is expected to be ready for Friday.
* Edmonds had a case of Planter Facuitius last night, he might be able to play today (although I'd give him the day-off)
* If both injuries are lingering it is likely one of them to go on the DL so they are not playing two down.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Did anyone read or hear from DeRosa? WTF?! It looked like he just took his eye off the ball.
It pissed me off that Brenley gave him a pass> "He had a long run..."
He was pretty much jogging at the end and had easily caught up to the ball.
Also, when he slumps he is a ground-out machine. Which he is in currently.
Perhaps Lou will "rest" him for a couple days?
Re: "He had a long run..."
Hell, he ran past the ball.
Nearly took his head off.
Re: "He had a long run..."
From my view (literally out if left field) it looked to me like Derosa saw that the ball was hit hard and maybe didn't think he was going to get it. He quickly realized that it was gonna be a catchable ball, relaxed and as stated ran past it.
I went to the last two games and the crowd was easily 80-90% Chicago blue. Unfortunately the Cubs played so f****** badly that the 3,457 pure Devil Ray fans that were there were louder than the 30,000+ Cub fans most of the time.
Oh yeah, there were some idiots ("Rays" fans obviously) running around in some kind of pajama/fairy-type outfits with bullhorns and $hit. Pretty funny.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Perhaps Lou will "rest" him for a couple days?
Kinda' hard when both Edmonds and Johnson are possibly out tonight.
Fukudome will have to be in CF, meaning you have Hoffpauir, Murton, and DeRosa to cover the corners.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
You'd think after winning the whole enchilada the WS would start acting like a winning organization, but they still display the old insecurities of their previous selves. They should take a page from the 1970's - circa Oakland A's, who were always treated as second - class citizens compared to the SF Giants, but kept their yaps shut and just kept on winning championships, year after year. Eventually, you can't ignore the elephant in the room.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
but they still display the old insecurities of their previous selves...
rightly so...after all, aren't they coming off a well earned 72-90 season.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
Couple of items since I haven't been around much the last week:
Heard last night on the DEVIL Rays' radio broadcast after Soto's double: "This is a real major league park. You have to hit it far to hit it out...not like that so-called major league field the Cubs play at with that short distance and 'goofy' basket. This is a real park..." Good Lord.
I realize Lou liked Hoff batting up there in the 9th, but after his AB the night before against Percival, why not bunt to move DeRosa to scoring position in the 9th?
This schedule is crap. First we go from Toronto to NY to Tampa within 36 hours, and now we have a night game on "getaway day" followed by an afternoon game the next day? What's up with that?
Re: This is a real major league park
real major league parks have real grass
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
looks like the Mariners are really cashing it in now. McLaren out, Jim Riggleman in. Yep that Jim Riggleman of the sub .450 career WP as a manager.
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
and of course cue Bedard trade rumors
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
and McLaren is Lou's longtime bench coach...
wonder if the Cubs will try to find a spot for him now
Re: Game 72 Recap: Cubs 4, Devil Rays 5
I always felt Lou was going to do his 3 years and then Cubs turn it over to Trammel.
We NEED to win this game tonight because...
I actually miss the 'Go Cubs Go' song in the upper right corner...
Corey Patterson
I'm glad my "It's all Corey's fault" made the parachat recap...

Mighty sporting of the Cardinals to drop two in a row to KC the same time we were losing. Cards are about to lose today, too... 4-1 KC in the 9th.
Cards Lsoe!
Woof -- Cards score 4 runs in 3 games, at home, against the Royals.
Brewers win a wild one -- lead 8-1 in the 9th, win 8-7 with the tying run on base.

Meh, I messed that up. Mets are in.
Cards and Giants can still tie though.
Kershaw gets hurt by his defense and gave up 2 more runs. Blach has 8 shutout innings.
Mets already won as did Cards.
tomorrow is gonna be helluva fun if Giants hold on. We're all rooting for a 3-way tie I presume.
good news is now 5 K's for Lester through 4 (in a quest for 200 for season). Bad news is he's already at 86 pitches.
be curious how long Maddon sticks with Lester to try and let offense get back into it and get him the win (4-2 as I type, was 4-0)
Fwiw, he needed 2.1 IP to cross 200 for season so he got that at least. He also needs 9 K's for 200K's on season and he has 4 through 3.
cubs score 2 runs thanks to predictable reds pitching and horrible CIN defense...cubs only down by 1 now. heyward even got a gift 2rbi double out of an easy popout. neat.
something named Ty Blach has outpitched Clayton Kershaw through 6 innings (1-0 Giants).
not that finishing 2nd place will matter much nor did this game, but have to think if Hendricks pitches well tomorrow, he could leapfrog Lester in Cy Young voting. Don't see anyway Scherzer doesn't win it regardless and it doesnt' look like Lester has any incentive clauses that matter. Also might give Cueto some votes.
Rather remarkable how many teams have really good 1-2 options this year.
Nats: Scherzer and Roark (and Strasburg was great before injuries)
Cubs: Lester and Hendricks (and Arrietta is still damn good just not as consistently lately)
pretty much what I'm gathering from this thread is that it doesn't matter who you play in 5-game series, but no one wants to have to deal with Cardinal fans if we end up losing.
I can respect that.
first game for lester giving up more than 2 runs since july 24th. hell of a run.
doh, yes...dunno what happened there. jake arrieta is all "bro wut?"
lester going for #20...cubs haven't had a LH (thanks jpep for the correction) 20 game winner since d.ellsworth in 1963.
fwiw, all the games are free on mlb.tv
Short rest for MadBum would be 2 days. WC game is Wed., Games 1 & 2 are Friday/Saturday.
A left-handed one...
J-Hey not finishing with an offensive onslaught.
If Geoff Blum could be a Playoff hero, there is hope still...
Giants scare me. I think you're wrong about Bumgarner, he would pitch on short rest for Game 2 and then full rest for Game 5. Cueto would go Game 1, then short rest in game 4. Add in some really tough outs in that lineup and I want nothing to do with them. With that rotation they can easily steal a series.
Cards are a tough matchup. The rivalry evens out their comparable lack of talent. And like someone said, they love HRs, which is how to beat the Cubs. The upside is that I would feel really good about Lester twice against STL.

DAVID BERGELAND/Durango Herald
U.S. Highway 550 at Farmington Hill was closed for more than an hour Monday evening after a van rolled over and landed on its roof just up the hill from the intersection with U.S. Highway 160.
The white 1997 Ford van, which was adapted for wheelchair use, flipped over about 5:20 p.m.
�They had a hard time extricating the driver,� Colorado State Patrol Trooper Nate Reid said.
He could not release the driver�s name pending notification of the family, but said he was a 58-year-old Durango resident.
The driver�s condition was not available as of Monday evening.
�I have no idea what caused it at this point,� Reid said.
It was a single-vehicle accident, and only the driver was in the vehicle.
Traffic was detoured to Colorado State Highway 172 and County Road 220 until about 6:30 p.m.
Several agencies responded to the accident, including the Durango Police Department, the La Plata County Sheriff�s Office and Durango Fire & Rescue Authority.

Scandal hits two lawyers who worked in Securities and Exchange Commission's Fort Worth office
Was the Securities and Exchange Commission's Fort Worth office a breeding ground for corruption? Or is this just a coincidence?
Phillip W. Offill Jr. (right) spent 15 years in the SEC's Fort Worth office prosecuting financial fraudsters. Now the lawyer has been sentenced to eight years in prison for doing what he once denounced.
Spencer Barasch (lower right) headed enforcement efforts at the same SEC office. Now a federal investigation accuses him of repeatedly turning a blind eye to alleged mega-Ponzi schemer R. Allen Stanford.
After going into private practice as a lawyer in Dallas, the investigation concludes, Barasch did some legal work for Stanford. The SEC has asked the State Bar of Texas to investigate that matter.
More recently, Barasch sought to represent billionaire Mark Cuban after the SEC accused him of insider trading, my Dallas Morning News colleagues Dave Michaels and Eric Torbenson discovered. They obtained an e-mail in which Barasch trashed Paul Coggins, the former U.S. attorney whom Cuban had hired as his lawyer.
The e-mail also touted Barasch's insider ties. "I am friends with and helped promote two of the guys who signed the Complaint against Mark," he wrote.
A judge has since dismissed the case against Cuban.
Barasch and Offill deny wrongdoing.
