  1. they have the 2nd best point differential in all of football, despite a tough schedule (like the rest of the NFCN) Oh. Then the losses don't count. you're being purposefully dense. nowhere did i suggest that. why do we all freely accept pythagorean record for baseball as a much better indicator of the quality of a team's performance, but you're seemingly shrugging off point differential like it's [expletive]?

  3. don't toy with my emotions
  4. umm... umm what? I don't see anything wrong with that, in all honesty. There are guys with more upside ... namely, Lee. But Darwin's more consistent, and as I've always said (mostly elsewhere), his athleticism is a bit underrated. He's not a top shelf athlete ... but some folks made him out to be a lot worse. Lee's what, "Omar Vizquel with a better arm" or whatever, but not even our best infielder?
  5. huh. Harris had just expressed about a week ago he was going back, great to have another good CB option for our pick
  6. starting a nationwide coaching search on January 5th, this was precisely the worst-case scenario
  7. Schefter's just the worst.
  8. ugh, i'd really rather just retain Rich Rod for another year than bother with Hoke (i know, obviously that ship has sailed)
  9. prediction: heeding the Ndaminator's constant lobbying, we move up in the draft to take Amukamara my dream draft last year 1-3 was Suh, Iupati, McCluster the latter two didn't make it to our picks, so i'll try to be a little more realistic this time around 1) Janoris Jenkins, CB 2) Greg Jones, OLB 3) Orlando Franklin, G
  10. not too much, but like all season, i wish we hadn't had to play such a grueling schedule on another note, Belichick & co. have absolutely no conscience. ended up with the 33rd, 95th picks for Armanti Edwards and a couple games of Randy Moss and effectively traded Maroney for Deion Branch
  11. quite a freefall due to yesterday's win, 7 spots
  12. I expected it. Last week they were well rested, playing a national tv night game vs. a playoff team in front of a good crowd and knowing they had a good shot at getting Leslie the job. Compared to playing on a short week against a last place team in a dead stadium, hours away from vacation and being fairly sure that Frazier already had the job. huh, we were also pretty sure our coach would keep his job and hours away from vacation And for the Lions, playing in a game with the chance to not finish in last place is like one of the organization's 5 most important games of the century. you sound like a moron here we still did finish in last place, and held out Calvin, who was active, as a precaution

  14. first 4-game win streak since '99 yeah, that's right, we didn't win 4 straight for the entire decade
  15. we're awesome now, i guess
  16. http://espn.go.com/sportsnation/chicago/chat/_/id/36264 http://www.baseballprospectus.com/card/card.php?id=GARZA19831111A What am I missing? BA had him as a top-20 prospect and scouts gave him Smoltz comparisons, so you can argue elite-level talent is there
  17. [expletive]. another week of this [expletive]?
  18. "...I would have bitten his arm off." -Dick Butkus
  19. I'm not gonna lie, I'd be willing to try, just to see how much more worked up you can get. I honestly envision you repeatedly pounding your fist on your desk as you post these comments. coincidentally, i honestly envision you repeatedly pounding your underbite teeth against a can of chili as you try to open it
  20. Shiancoe usually plays like that anyway
  21. man, that was horrific
