  1. There is that technicality and I'm, of course, up North, going to see what I can find...
  2. Unfortunately, playoff Brett Farve showed up...
  3. That's a good question. Normally we try and tie in the cities involved for the menu. Obviously in this case you'd have to go all New Orleans, because Indy offers nothing. I need to get on that menu. i really want to do something different than just the usual steaks and wings. Gumbo sounds good, but I've never made it before. Queso with spicy sausage mixed in. Maybe I'll try some Crawfish Etouffee...
  4. The Illini held a team meeting - http://www.chicagotribune.com/sports/college/ct-spt-0126-illinois-hoops--20100125,0,7691827.story Hopefully, growing some and playing aggressively was a big part of meeting. If Mike Davis and Company come out playing balls to the walls Penn State doesn't stand a chance Wednesday.
  5. Doesn't he have another year on his contract with Minnesota? Yep, for $13 million. I don't think any is guaranteed. Brett had a two-year deal with the Jets too. In many ways his season was nothing short of miraculus, even should he return, I don't think it's a given he'll have another such season.
  6. Nah, it comes down to that 12th man in the huddle. If not for that, it was an automatic run call for the next play and Longwell probably would have come through. Bingo Favre could have tucked it and run, picked up a few yards and gotten them back to where they likely would have been had they not had the penalty. He didn't have to try to force a throw like he did. He could have thrown the ball away if he didn't have it in him to run, to boot. But , but, but, he's the great gunslinger Brett Farve who can make something out of nothing.
  7. Well, Brett, time to start re-hearsing the offseason melodrama!!!
  8. You don't think so? You knew it was going to go from left to right maybe, I being a little unrealistic.
  9. I was thinking about that as well, that last goal was super soft.
  10. Sloppy play all around, the third goal all on Niemi couldn't control the rebound, the second unforced turnover, the first a bounce that went Vancouver way. Basically, they've taken advantage of every Hawk mistake, it more the Hawks lack of good play than anything the Canucks are doing.
  11. Kane just hit the post but, drew a penalty.
  12. atdhe.net always has one. if that's one isn't working, PM me and i'll give you a link to a second place Once again, thank you very much.
  13. Anyone know of a Web feed for tonights game? Thanks in advance.
  14. This is a quote from an article, or is this one of the goofs over there like Ryan Christie? I believe it is a goof, but I think he took the AD thing from an article. Not 100 percent sure. Either way intresting stuff. His seat has to be getting warmer. I agree his seat is getting a little warm. Missing the tournament this year is going to require some serious leaps forward next year. Obviously the tournament is necessary, but I'm not sure he can survive something like an 8 seed and done next year. I'm not sure he should either. Of course I'm a kool-aid swilling homer and think we're making the tourney this year, and have a Final 4 chance next year. I agree, now that the recruiting been fixed, he's running out of excuses, with the addition of Leonard, Richmond and hopefully, a healthy Crandell Head. There's no reason not to expect a elite 8 or more run in 2011-12, the team' going to be loaded with big time talent.
  15. Huet still worries me, the guy faced only 18 shots and still managed to let in 4 goals, was it not the same story in Minnesota? Faced a low number of shots but, found a way to give up 6 goals - you can't ask more of the Hawks defense. They limit the number of opprotunities for the opponent, at some point Huet' gotta start coming up big.
  16. Eventually, we'll see some consistent play from the Illini maybe, it'll result in some NIT wins.
  17. LOL, they're going to run this whole thing by committe. Who needs a coordinator? You've seen the player huddle on the sidelines. Now the Bears are going to invent the assistant huddle to vote on plays & defenses. Supah Bowl. College of Coaches anyone? That sure worked out well for the Cubs. I don't understand what the Bears are doing either, Lovie wants to run, run, run the ball. If that's the case why trade for Cutler and has Lovie been watching the playoffs at all?
  18. Agreed after the first period. I'll take a win in Detroit any day though. Detroit never lead in the game. It was a road game against a divisional rival. That's hardly "stealing one.". It's winning a tough road game in hostile territory. Good point, the Blackhawks are better plain and simple, the Red Wings blew they're wad today and still couldn't win.
  19. The Saints are going score a lot of points next week, guys are still open all over the place and I believe the Saints will keep the Vikings off Brees. Will the Saints be able to make a few stops?
  20. Nice win, had my doubts going into the shootout, is it me or was there something cheesy about Bertuzzi' distracting Nemi with an ice shower?
  21. No way in the world were the Illini going to win but, the shoving and pushing of Tisdale was a bit over the top, MSU should have been called on it once or twice.
  22. Lovie perceived lame-duck status notwithstanding, what's the point of hiring a DC? As Lovie has emphatically informed us the defensive scheme is not going change hence, a DC with fresh ideas or some autonomy is an impossibility. Basically Lovie' looking for a yes man, he'll still run the defense just not officially.
  23. How many names and seasons from the last seven years or so could you plug into that sentence to describe Cardinal players, though? Ryan Ludwick, Rick Ankiel, Kyle Lohse, and Aaron Miles are the most recent that come to mind, and I suspect that Franklin and Joel Piniero will be right behind them. Tony Womack, Ray King, it goes on and on...
  24. Makes sense, don't believe Franklin' going to pull another season out of his ass such as 2009.
  25. Go for it, I know it's pathetic but, even should he never throw a pitch as a Cub, sign him. Anything to keep him from the Cards, I can see it now - they sign Sheets, he misses another season, then steps right in for Carpenter in 2011.
