  1. Thanks so much, Tim!!
  2. Holy cow Aaron Rodgers
  3. The 4th and 25. One of the worst moments I've ever had as a sports fan, but damn this is a good gif http://i.imgur.com/lA5W6Kz.gifv
  4. Just heard someone make an interesting comment. He made an argument that one of the most influential decisions of the past decade in football occurred in 2006 when Nick Saban, then with the Dolphins, chose to go with Dante Culpepper in free agency over Drew Brees after Brees and Culpepper came in and worked out. If he chose Brees, Saban might still be in Miami, the Bama resurgence and their 4 National Titles never happens, and the Saints are probably in San Antonio.
  5. This all day, and yes, he works for ESPN.
  6. Saban is tremendous on TV. If he rides off into the sunset after tonight, that'll be where he goes.
  7. Griffey should have a backwards cap.
  8. In fairness, Walsh did go to Georgia, so he's not used to succeeding with something of consequence on the line.
  9. This. They are the worst.
  10. Football players are so stupid
  11. Well, whatever, as it currently stands, surely we can all agree that the semi's need to be played on New Years Day.
  12. Who gives a [expletive] about attendance when there are 30 million people watching at home? Oh crap, the stadium is 70 percent full, I don't think I'm gonna watch this playoff game.
  13. I only think 8 teams will happen if the first round is played at home stadiums Why? You think fan bases won't travel? Enough will. You have six access bowls currently. 4 of them will be quarters and the other two will be semi's. Rotate them every year. The national title game will be its own thing. The amount of revenue from boner pill commercials and other ads that would come about from 4 New Years Day playoff games would be staggering. Money is king. Any issues that pop up regarding fan bases traveling or compensating players for the extra game can be worked out. I think it's a lot to ask fans to travel three times in three weeks. It'll work itself out. You'll have plenty of people that would go to all three if their teams made it that far. You'd have people who might not go to the quarters who would then go "holy crap we won, we gotta go to the semi" and so on. It's not like any of these games would ever be half-full or anything. Besides, money is king, and the revenue produced by selling tickets is minuscule compared to ad revenue that would be generated.

  15. 8 team playoff, all 4 quarters played on New Years Day = greatest sports day of the year. It's gonna happen one day. There is so, so much money to be made from it.
  16. He would be the first with a Mariner cap unless I'm forgetting someone.
  17. He gonna go in as a Mariner or Red? I'm guessing he goes the Maddux route.
  18. Junior with most ever, 99.3%. 437 out of 440. Those 3 wankers need to be put up against a wall.
  19. Fun fact: Barry Bonds had more career WAR by the time of his second All-Star appearance than Jim Rice had throughout his entire career.
  20. I'm guessing Junior and Piazza get in. Junior better damn well be above 95%. Others on the ballot this year: Raines Hoffman Schilling Bagwell Bonds Clemens Edgar Martinez Mussina Lee Smith Trammell McGriff Kent Wagner Edmonds Nomar Sheffield McGwire Sosa Larry Walker Garret Anderson Ausmus Grudzielanek Mike Hampton Jason Kendall Luis Castillo Eckstein Glaus Mike Lowell Mike Sweeney Randy Winn
  21. Eli getting a bit emotional http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:14509701
  22. Mickey bat-flipped when he was pissed, so that's probably an out, but awesome nonetheless.
  23. So Laremy Tunsil just caught a TD pass.
