  1. This needs to be reiterated. The lack of depth has really destroyed us this year, not just at QB. Damage all across the OLine is a normal thing to expect on a football team, except last year, when we had almost no injuries at all. Two white safeties on the same field is inexcusable by the way, and should be a fire-able offense for a GM. This has been a problem for years. When the Bears are healthy, they win. When they suffer injuries, they lose. Many other good teams can overcome injuries with their depth, but the Bears certainly aren't one of them.
  2. I'm not seeing what everyone else is seeing when they rip Hanie. The guys on Comcast Post-Game Live continue to criticize him, but he didn't single-handedly lose the game. He certainly wasn't good, but he doesn't have much help either. Out of his 3 interceptions, only 1 of them was his fault and you could argue that Knox should have even made more of a play on it. I would put this loss more on a combination of poor pass-blocking and play calling and I believe that, out of the options that are available, Hanie still gives the Bears the best chance to win going forward.
  3. Yes, but he had nothing on Tebow.
  4. Smoke and mirrors... In the long run, Broncos fans will be thankful that Elway was one of the few intelligent people who didn't buy into it.
  5. The more I read about the new CBA, the more I hate it. I think I should just stop reading about it.
  6. Yep, they need to either add that award to do away with the Cy. I would propose adding a hitters award in each league, then only have 1 MVP for all of baseball chosen from the 4 award winners.
  7. Good for Verlander and I am all for a pitcher being able to win the MVP, but then aren't we missing an award? Why not add another award for the Most Outstanding hitter?
  8. And that is just the playoffs.
  9. I wish him luck, but I am really surprised he is returning to AAA. It seems if he really wants to increase his chances of getting a Major League manager job in the future, he would be looking for a position on an MLB staff... but maybe he can't get one of those either.
  10. The Christmas Day game just became much less interesting, but the remaining games on the schedule are all winnable. That means the Bears just need Hanie to lead them to 3 wins out of 5 games against the Raiders, Chiefs, Broncos, Seahawks, and Vikings. That is certainly do-able.
  11. "Another Tim Tebow night!"
  12. He has 172 freaking total yards and that is a "magical game." He had a good drive... ONE good drive.
  13. I hate life.
  14. The crowd is chanting Tebow and the announcers are talking like he is taking over the game. I am going to puke.
  15. Hey Broncos fans, this is what you asked for. Enjoy!
  16. If the Jets QB was Tom Brady, you can't tell me that wouldn't have been a late hit.
  17. This Quarterback play on both sides makes me want to poke out my eyes with a fork.
  18. I am in this camp, although it is probably closer to 2 AB's that pitchers actually take per game. The strategy is part of the reason I prefer National League rules, but I also like that a team's entire 25-man roster matters in the National League more than it does in the American League because every player on the bench could see action on any given night.
  19. Hell no. Plus I don't think anyone ever said there would be more interleague play. I believe it will just be spread throughout the season.
  20. Luckily being the manager doesn't involve standing down the 3rd base line and waving runners home right? Bullet dodged. Unless your name is Ron Washington.
  21. I was dreading the mispronounciation of Mackanin, so I can live with Sveum.
  22. Ken Rosenthal is reporting the same thing.
