  1. He's incredibly ugly.
  2. Of course they do. Teams that win impressively are often moved ahead of teams that don't win impressively. This in turn effects the BCS. The same goes for losses. If someone beleives that Michigan didn't play as well as the score indicated, then sure, it does matter.
  3. The Bears can't lose HFA can they? Their schedule the rest of the way is bad, with @StL the only somewhat difficult game. HFA is real cool, but as an Eagles fan I can tell you that it is no assurance to making the Super Bowl. I guess you could ask the three teams the Steelers beat on the road last year, too. You could also ask the Bears, since they haven't won a home playoff game in years.
  4. Seatle has allowed more points then they have scored.
  5. I don't think they're the prohibitive favorite, but they've got an easy schedule the rest of the way: @Denver (against a QB making his first NFL start) @Arizona SF SD @TB I think they go 4-1 with that schedule and win their division going away. Dallas has three fairly tough games (@NYG this weekend - don't underestimate the difficulty of a big divisional game; vs NO, @Atl) and two cupcakes (vs Philly, vs Detroit). NO should beat SF and Washington at home, but has to play @Dallas, @NYG and vs Carolina. So, it's certainly possible that Seattle could get the bye and only have to play one game at most on the road. Hmmm...I don't view that schedule as being easy. I think Seattle will lose to Denver and SD. On the other hand, I feel Dallas has a good shot at winning out. I don't see any way Seattle goes to Dallas or Chicago and wins. But hey---I've been wrong before. I guess I can see them winning in Denver if Cutler plays scared. Denver doesn't have the running attack that it used to - Cutler is going to have to be able to pass the ball for them to win. Both of SD's losses were on the road, and Seattle is really, really good at home - only four losses there in the past four years. And, Dallas will not win out. I would bet my house on that. I'm not quite sure this is the case. They haven't had much success passing so far this year and have won a lot of games in a tough division. Cutler was a stud in the preaseason but who knows what that means? I don't think there is any way Seatle beats San Diego. San Diego's D is going to be a lot better now the Merriman is back. I don't see Seatle being able to stop Tomlinson and company. The Seahawks don't have a tough schedule, but it's no cake walk either. I think they'll lose 2 of those games.
  6. I lucked into a free ticket in the 19th row last night. The game was awesome. Curry played well but looked really really really fat. A couple of times he didn't even run down the court to play defense because he was so winded. He would be a huge liability against any team that can run. Tyrus Thomas needs to take it easy. He came in for about 2 mins and was out of his mind. Turnovers, goaltending, horrible shots. He's obviously talented he just needs to calm down a little bit. There was a huge picture of Big Ben on our tickets. Complete with headband.
  7. Manny to the White Sox is possible? Or did that refer to Drew? When talking about Manny, he referred to Boston getting Drew done soon (or first maybe), then referred to the White Sox as possible destination for Manny. He talked about SF, but said he didn't think they'd have what it takes. Yeah... it seemed like he was of the opinion that the Red Sox are determined to deal Ramirez. The two teams most rumored to be interested are the Giants, who are interested, but don't have that much to offer. Then there's the Dodgers, who would also be interested, but he doesn't think they'd deal three good prospects (although if I were them, I would). So he was throwing out other options, and the one he put out there was the White Sox. Sounds like speculation based on what the W. Sox could offer? Thanks for the clarification.
  8. Bruce says this isn't true. Then again, Gammons is on the 20 dollar bill so it's hard to believe he's not right. I'm perplexed here.
  9. Manny to the White Sox is possible? Or did that refer to Drew?
  10. Ronny looks like he's been a complete disaster.
  11. I should eat crow on him. He's steped it up.
  12. I think the Bears are going to win very big.
  13. Pete Rose certianly played for a long time. Lifetime OPS+ of 118 isn't very stellar though. In conclusion, put him in or don't. I don't really care at all.
  14. Mike and Mike were savaging Grossman again this morning. Peter King was on and guess what, he likes the fighting Tony Romo's in the NFC. Never would have guessed it.
  15. Agreed. I'm with you two.
  16. Peter King is obsessed with Tony Romo. Seriously. Every MMQB is a man-love ode to Romo. It's bizarre. King is unreadable at this point. I think the loss may be a good thing for the Bears. It should certainly keep them hungry coming into playoff time. The yells for a QB change are premature but I think we can all agree that Rex was very bad last night. <50% completions, 4 turnovers. Simply unacceptable. My guess is that the staff has him on about a 2 game leash before they'll consider going to Griese. I think that's about right. Rex has to play better and has to get better. I'm starting to become concerned. I'd also like to add that the officiating was awful last night. Two brutal PI's weren't called on the second drive, one in the endzone. There were also COUNTLESS holds by the Patriot offensive line that were not called. Joe Buck kept harping on the last 2 PI calls like the Bears were getting all the breaks or some garbage. I hate Joe Buck. He sucks.
  17. Hey, I wasn't the only one to say Addai. Good to hear it worked out for you.
  18. They needed two scores anyway? The field goal Im talking about was in the 4th quarter with 3 mins left in the game. They were down 17-10 and on the 20 or so. If they go for the 4th and 7(i think) and they get it, then they more than likely score a TD to tie the game. If they miss it they essentially do what they did by kicking a field goal and put NE pushed back. So what really was the point of the field goal? Did Lovie actually think they could stop them and then get the ball with around 2 mins left or so and drive the field? If so hes an idiot, cause all day long the Bears needed long 10 plus play drives to move the ball to the other end. So if you are already in the red zone then just go for it plain and simple. I didn't get this either.
  19. On the third down conversion there was a blatant hold that was not called. I'm beside myself here.
  20. Good to know we're playing against the refs too. Give me a [expletive] break.
  21. Someone's going to blow up DeAngelo Hall one day. That guy is a dirty dirty player. What a jerkoff.
