  1. Michigan's tied with Bama for #1 in the entire country for pass defense (yardage) obviously our schedule's helped that some, but we lost our best cover corner in like the 3rd snap of the season, have a walk-on safety starting, only have one capable pass-rusher (a LB), and play this guy: http://mgoblog.com/sites/mgoblog.com/files/UponFurtherReview2010DefenseVsPennState_AB86/death6.2.jpg i'm going to start a campaign for Greg Mattison to be awarded god status or something
  2. i guess there were passages in Moneyball that were kind of inflammatory toward scouting, and JP Ricciardi firing most of his scouts ruffled a lot of feathers
  3. i love that there are organizations that still strongly feel this way, and don't really get why you guys are so revolted/offended by fans with these dumb opinions but it's hard to argue that SF isn't scouting really, really well of late
  4. he lazily named each team's QB there unless there was a glaringly obvious exception 7 of the 11 full-time QBs with the lowest QB ratings are listed there
  5. Pot brownies + Chicago style pizza will have him looking like CC Sabathia in no time. http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/blog/big_league_stew/post/could-you-down-tim-lincecums-usual-order-at-in-n-out?urn=mlb,wp675
  6. yeah, Tigers/Pistons/Red Wings fans haven't had much at all to celebrate in the last 10 years
  7. the Stafford gif with the grass is hilarious
  8. That is an absurd interpretation of how the announcers were calling the game. Gruden was creaming his pants over the Bears. Yeah, they were just saying it was unusual, and was daring the Lions to run. Which explains why the Bears gave up more running yards than they usually do. I fully expect the Bears to get back to shutting down the run after this. every team we've faced this year has played their two safeties absurdly deep like that, but we can't really exploit it much because Raiola and Backus are woefully poor run blockers and LeShoure can't break tackles/make guys miss i imagine better run blockers will be high on Schwartz's wish list this offseason
  9. come on down, Dee Milliner?
  10. BEST TEARS IN BASEBALL
  11. of below-average to average players? your logic is horribly flawed
  12. http://cheekymonkeyart.com/artwork/wcg/PeppersSmash-500pxWide.gif
  13. for Brett Anderson and Reddick, i'd give Baez a personal piggy-back ride all the way to Oakland
  14. Hollandsworth would be the worst possible choice, and it's not even close
  15. "oh yeah, no, we're not looking to steal away more Anthony Rizzos, in fears it'll make us too good"
  16. that Morgan play is (hilariously) more egregious, but Holliday's slide still seems much more dangerous; i keep expecting Scutaro's ankle to get separated from the rest of his leg every time that gif loops
  17. if anything, they need to fire their OL coach: 4 sacks, 10 QB hits, 7 TFLs and just 12 yards on 20 carries on called rushing plays on Sunday though, taking Asomugha off Calvin in the 4th to play zone was lunacy
  18. our for the year, and it's looking like probably career at this point too
  19. to be fair, we have no idea when that was last updated http://www.scout.com/a.z?s=25&p=8&c=1&nid=5018751 i assume raisin & co probably have something more currently relevant from BA or whomever
  20. well, that guy definitely finished the year on a high note scout.com: he was unanimous Tigers Prospect Report pick for class-A pitcher of the year
  21. i wish i'd known about The Kicker Excuse in '10 when UM kickers were 28% on the year for FGs
  22. I think Victorino and Melky will be cheap. Upton, I tend to think he gets 65+. Likely +. he's coming off a .298 obp season, so it's hard to see teams being really confident in a long-term commitment 4/50 would be pretty sweet if we could swing it
  23. i have a growing suspicion none of Upton/Victorino/Melky are going to get over $40M, and that makes all three really intriguing to me
