good win!

Rob Parker may be the dumbest person I've ever seen on TV
-
Hollinger is leaving ESPN to take a job with the Grizzlies
-
If you guys have the temerity to suggest that the Bulls should kick the tires on acquiring good players SSR will go blind with rage
-
So Harden is out with an injury and Lin suddenly gets 38 after looking like a D-Leaguer all season. Also OJ Mayo is ridiculously good this year.
-
Jay's range on those intermediate throws over the middle has been really bad
-
hooray we're not terrible!
-
wtf Tuberville to Cincy
-
Considering the suicide inducing rapist is still on th team I'm sure they could've bent a rule to get Te'o the award
-
The McCaskey's are not going to allow Lovie to be fired in a playoff year no matter what the exit looks like.
-
This was the most talented team in the NFC in 2006 and they aren't even close now. It's not a matter of adding people. It's adding them in comparison to the rest of the league. The Bears have not done that and Lovie has played a major part. Most talented except at the position that really matters.
-
What talent drain? There was definitely some of that after the Super Bowl year but we've added impact talent on all units besides OL (and TE I guess) since then.
-
If there's one thing being an SC fan has taught me it's that holding a recruiting class together during a transition is inconsequential if the man at the helm is an incompetent boob. I'll trade our recruiting class and Lane for Malzahn and yours.
-
Tuberville would be a good target no?
-
Prospects are like porn. Only weirdos consider Japanese performers the same.

MR has moved into the "dance puppets dance!" portion of the thread

Ingram won the closest Heisman vote in history that should tell you it was a pretty fragmented field. And yes, I think you transported him to ND '12 Teo is still getting a good deal of support considering Ingram had the most pedestrian numbers of basically any winner in a long time. And the McClain thing was to illustrate a point. We're not talking about just a difference in vote totals. We're talking about two guys who played the same position on similarly successful defenses. One guy didn't receive a single vote and the other is going to finish 2nd in the Heisman. That's partly a function of ND hype. How about illustrating the point that McClain was probably his own team's 5th-best player and ballots only contain spots for 3 people? McClain was a unanimous All American and won the Butkus. Cody and Ingram were similarly productive/lauded as McClain. To say that Jones and Richardson were is completely disingenuous. BS. Offensive players will get more Heisman love than defensive players. If Floyd were still at ND and the offense was scoring 35 ppg, Te'o would not be a finalist. Why woudn't character issues have sunk Floyd's Heisman campaign like it apparently did for McClain? More ND bias in action.

http://www.suntimes.com/sports/basketball/bulls/16792256-579/source-bulls-star-derrick-rose-just-weeks-from-practicing.html Pretty exciting if true even if it means we're still looking at February return if there are no setbacks.

You've made it abundantly clear that you can make baseless and biased claims. He's right in this case. Rolando McClain didn't even get a vote in 09 with credentials that are just as good as Teo's. Unanimous All American, Butkus Award, undefeated season. Any of the 4 finalists that year would have won this season. Teo is a finalist because he's the best defender on the #1 team in the country that has put up mediocre offensive #s AND there aren't any standout offensive players on the best teams in the country. Really, because that is probably the weakest Heisman final group of recent years which is why Suh got as many votes as he did in the first place.

Isn't McClain the guy that just got benched by the Raiders for character issues. The Raiders. That has nothing to do with anything.

no doubt we'd love to have some elite talent. but really the only way to compete with the kentuckys and kansas's of the world is to get and develop 4-star players. illinois is the most experienced team in the conference, and i have to think that will pay off throughout the year. they've also been to the pit of despair and had a taste of the [expletive]. that that builds character. Kansas gets elite talent? They've put nothing but bad role players in the NBA since Pierce.
