  1. So Theo Riddick has been running over USC all game, and on 3rd and goal ND runs the fade route that never works. If he misses this kick it's going to bite them in the ass.
  2. Why would Mourinho come back to deal with Abramovich's crazy ass, though? If he comes back to the EPL it has to be Citeh, right? And you're right; he's already burned through most of the guys you'd think that would have the heft to complete the overhaul; Jose, Ancelotti, Scolari...I'm at a loss as to who is left? Also, ironic that their biggest CL successes came under Grant and Di Matteo.
  3. Redknapp + Terry and Cole would be high comedy. But the Rafa thing was being reported by John Brewin of Soccernet and someoneorother from the Guardian.
  4. Abramovich is worse than Steinbrenner ever, ever was. So he got basically 2.5 months with a half-overhauled squad and gets canned the instant they hit a rough patch in form? Stupid. Also, Rafa's like the opposite of the guy you would want managing Hazard and Oscar and Mata.
  5. LOL Chelsea. Di Matteo fired, Benitez hired.
  6. Lets all be grateful Cutler isn't playing tonight, because he might have died with that kind of blocking.
  7. That was a terrible throw.
  8. This is a beating.
  9. It's games like this that make me unbelievably confused as to why the meatball faction don't adore Cutler. This team is hopelessly effed without him.
  10. Damn. That's a hit.
  11. Defoe is horrible. First minute of the second half, looked off a wide open Clint who, if played through, has a 1v1 with the keeper just to dribble into traffic and get dispossessed. They are really an unpleasant team to watch. Fulham looked more fluid in possession.
  12. How does Cabrera have anything to do with Porcello? "Now that I'm sitting on the couch, Israel and Palestine need to stop launching rockets at each other"
  13. If we slightly overpay a few more meh players, we'll have a payroll that will only be an embarrassment to a major market franchise as opposed to one that's an abomination.
  14. He needs to get out of Norway and go to the Dutch league.
  15. Come on now... If you're going to evaluate his 3.5 years in Chicago how would you summarize it using statistics? It's obvious he didn't have much to work with starting out. I would start by looking at the context of what he's had to work with, and realize that he's the best QB in the history of the franchise.
  16. Josh Gatt is really, really fast.
  17. It's not like last year was the first year Soriano graded really well in the outfield. He's not some ridiculous butcher who was turned good by being moved back. And what exactly is so good about LoMo's bat and how is it better than Soriano's (in the short run) (or -in the long run- an alternative LFer)? Well, he's about what, 15 years younger than Soriano? Far cheaper, coming off a down year, for a dead assed team. It's worth looking into.
  18. Ibra's form is out of this world right now.
  19. I don't see how playing LF in Wrigley is some sort of difficult thing, especially if we allow Jackson to play CF. EDIT: Also, if Sveum somehow turned Soriano into a passable LF just by moving him back, I'm sure he can figure something out to get LoMo's bat in LF.
  20. LOLOLOL That franchise is such a mess...
  21. I hope their stadium gets declared unsafe and shut down
  22. Really opening it up here
