  1. holy [expletive], we're about to get process'd again, even though Burleson took about 17 steps with the ball in his hand
  2. yessss Spievey
  3. damn, Alex Smith actually looks somewhat competent
  4. might be the first time i've ever seen intentional grounding actually called because the pass was short of the LOS
  5. crowd noise a big factor again; SF already with 4 or 5 false starts
  6. GB punted from the 42??
  7. the statue of liberty play to Vanden Bosch, nice
  8. then wouldn't my crusade be against only Cutler?
  9. monday night was his best game of the season my soulless assault on the Bears where i declared Forte as the best receiving RB in football
  10. Cutler has the best receiving RB in football, whom has greatly boosted his passing numbers Freeman's receivers have dropped the 2nd most passes, and he's had the most spikes DVOA, EPA, WPA, success rate all favor Freeman over those two (Sanchez is hideously awful and not comfortably better than any other QB with reasonable job security) no
  11. eight other teams' OLs have allowed more pressure than the Bears, including Tampa
  12. by most objective measures, Freeman's still been better than Cutler and especially Sanchez this season
  13. hahaha, Brandon Weeden just pulled a Dan Orlovsky...
  14. we were outplayed and i won't argue to the contrary, but my god, MSU showed an abhorrent lack of class http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sM18sAZRnIU http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AhbZoU4w-Xo
  15. fat David Wells maintained effectiveness into his 40s i don't know why weight is supposed to be such a big concern for a pitcher, especially when it's easier to have faith in their frame withstanding the strain they'll put on their arm; he'd also provide more value with his bat than most all other NL pitchers i can't really think of many safer bets in pitching for the next 6 years than CC
  16. Wow, that really is an insanely small front office. now look how large Boston's FO is, particularly Baseball Operations http://boston.redsox.mlb.com/team/front_office.jsp?c_id=bos though the Assistant Director/Florida Baseball Operations does have a rather unfortunate name
  17. Aaron Curry traded to Raiders for '12 7th rounder and conditional '13 pick
  18. the Crawford deal was bad mostly because so much of his value is predicated on otherworldly defense, which is heavily negated by playing in Boston's miniscule LF
  19. http://i56.tinypic.com/24od7x4.png
  20. Theo's been fairly lousy in FA, but I have to wonder if he's at times been overruled by Lucchino, like Cashman had so often been by the Steinbrenners the Crawford and Lackey contracts especially come to mind. he was letting Pedro, Lowe walk and preaching fiscal responsibility, it just doesn't make much sense that he'd so radically change his outlook
  21. something else about Pedroia, he was absolutely godawful the first 50+ games to his career and despite the fans' protestations they kept him in there
  22. fwiw 2009: (1) Matthew Stafford, QB - Starter (1) Brandon Pettigrew, TE - Starter (acquired in Roy Williams trade) (2) Louis Delmas, S - Starter (3) DeAndre Levy, LB - Starter (3) Derrick Williams, WR - not on team (acquired in Roy Williams trade) (4) Sammie Hill, DT - backup (5) Aaron Brown, RB - not on team (acquired in Roy Williams trade) (6) Lydon Murtha, T - not on team: claimed by Mia off PS (7) Zach Follett, LB - retired: injuries (7) Dan Gronkowski, TE - traded for Alphonso Smith, CB - backup (7) Shaun Hill, QB - backup (acquired via trade) 4 starters, 3 backups 2010: (1) Ndamukong Suh, DT - starter (1) Jahvid Best, RB - starter (3) Amari Spievey, S - starter (4) Jason Fox, T - backup (5) Rob Sims, G - starter (acquired via trade) (5) Tony Scheffler, TE - backup (acquired via trade) (5) Corey Williams, DT - starter (acquired via trade) (6) Chris Houston, CB - starter (acquired via trade) (7) Willie Young, DE - backup (7) Ko Simpson, S - not on team (acquired via trade) (7) Tim Toone, WR - not on team 6 starters, 3 backups 2 drafts: 10 starters, 6 backups - i'd term all but Spievey as above-average starters (our weak spots are mostly old hold-overs [e.g. Backus, Cherilus, Raiola])
  23. Except ND is that 40-year-old in the club that used to be hot, but hasn't really been that great since 1993. And EJ is the guy that can't take his eyes of her, will have a buddy ask for her number, publicly declare he's too good for her when she shoots him down, and then go home and rub one out fantasizing about her. No, I'm the guy who's taken her home a few times and just tired of seeing her. I'm tired of playing ND every year and tired of hearing speculation of ND coming to the Big Ten. I want them to go to the ACC so we can stop hearing about them. i like our annual ND win
  24. wow, people were actually serious about trading Castro for Votto?
  25. the 49ers run D is very good, but they have terrible cover safeties and a poor OL in pass protection; sounds like the kind of team we should fare well against (and actually just did) i feel pretty good about our chances
