  1. He is also allowing a lot of catches like he always has. He either gets the big INT or he gives up the catch because he always goes for the INT even when he has no chance. See his only 7 PD's and 44 solo tackles as evidence. He is having a good year but he isn't close to Allen or Sharper in the DPOY race at this point. Jonathan Joseph I would say is above him as well. He has 5 INT's (same as Woodson coming into week) and league leading 15 PD's for the surprise team of the year. epic fail
  2. i'd give up just about our entire farm minus Castro to get Cabrera, even coupled with his contract
  3. that was the PR game both sides played, but i'd be quite surprised if it played out like that. Filatov was saying things to the effect of "the coach has his opinion of me as a player", i don't know what will be changed after a year in the KHL. Cls told him to gain muscle over the summer, and he did- coming into camp 20 lbs heavier, i think it was. is he going to really improve a whole lot on his defense playing in Russia? it has to be a Hitchcock thing, can you tell me that Filatov's less NHL ready than other rookies like Anisimov or Kulikov, who are consistently getting 15 mins/g of TOI?
  4. Kane's spin-around goal vs. Minnesota was better too, imo i'm surprised nobody's brought up Cls loaning Filatov to the KHL yet. this is probably the best prospect in the game, and they're going to be forced to trade him in a couple months (or be stuck in some sort of Radulov limbo/purgatory, or lose him to Russia outright) because Hitchcock can't fit him into his system, for some reason. you couple that with Voracek and Brassard having their offensive ability somewhat squandered, it's really hard to think Hitch is the best coach for that team at this point. if they don't make a serious playoff run, i think they have to bring in a better fit to suit their young talent.
  5. people here would hate mariucci, he runs the most god awful vanilla conservative west coast scheme and once called shawn bryson "worth his weight in gold" [expletive] him
  6. i think Cutler's biggest problem is his habit of just locking into his receivers. last year whenever i watched Denver play, he'd get into a groove with Marshall or Royal for a stretch and just look to them every drop back. that's more acceptable when your receivers are great at gaining separation and making catches in traffic.
  7. how long until Sanchize lands on the bench, for good?
  8. i guess we didn't want the #1 pick, after all
  9. oh, lions just too bad that this one's blacked out for me
  10. yeah, he is. the Cardinals moustache thing the Oilers have going on makes me like them a whole lot less
  11. touchdown!
  12. well [expletive]
  13. ugh, i really hate millen
  14. Pick one: B. Scott v. Oak B. Wells v. Stl Forsett v. Min Charles v. Pit
  15. yeah, ian white had one of the hits of the year on eric cole too yesterday
  16. yeah, ian white had one of the hits of the year on eric cole too yesterday
  17. http://www.usingenglish.com/forum/english-idioms-sayings/90541-mine-well.html http://eggcorns.lascribe.net/english/212/mine/ http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20060922140435AAL3M8S Like I said it's not widely used but it is in fact used. I picked it up from somewhere (always said it that way so I don't know where it came from). Is it wrong. Yes. Are there many phrases commonly misspoken in this country, hell yes. This one isn't very common but I'm guessing it has to do with the "Hoosier" accent since I most likely picked it up from my dad. He mispronounces many things and when I correct him he always says he was speaking "Hoosier." it sounds like you're bag paddling on the issue
  18. i'm disappointed the bum didn't use the watching football excuse again
  19. in other news, i just noticed James Neal has outscored Crosby thus far, in three fewer games how does that happen? Rene Bourque's been huge too, to my surprise
  20. i would have been so pissed about it i would have taken a [expletive] right on my living room floor
  21. Ben Badler of BA called him a "plus-plus runner"
  22. Garon could very well be the best shootout goalie in the league it also turns out Mason's been playing through back spasms, so i'm absolved of my he'll be fine comment
  23. i don't really get the idea that Vitters' upside is better than Castro's he's not going to walk or field well at third and his power potential isn't that of a guy like Stanton or Snider
