    Schedule is out: http://www.nba.com/bulls/bulls-announce-2011-12-regular-season-schedule-christmas-day-opener.html Those 3 games in a row, 5 games in 6 nights, type stretches will be fun.

    Cubs/Magic is odd. Cubs/Packers is abhorrent.

    My fear is that the Hornets and Magic will both have to take low ball trade offers because Howard and Paul won't sign extensions with more than a handful of big market teams. Did the Nuggets get a low ball trade offer for Melo? Did the Jazz get a low ball offer for Deron Williams? They didn't get near the value in return for the respective players, but they got decent packages of young players, picks, and cap space. The Lakers can't offer this. It's just not going to happen. Ok, maybe it will, considering the NBA owns the Hornets and I could see that snake David Stern steering Paul to LA for nothing and then LA uses Gasol and Bynum for Howard. If so I'm giving up the NBA Bynum/Odom for Howard and Gasol for Paul. The Bulls, and others, can beat that package for Howard but if he won't sign an extension then those teams won't offer.

    Kobe's blood doping now. He'll be fine.

    Ugh, I have this horrible feeling that the Lakers are gonna pull that off.

    Yep. If the Bears aren't making the playoffs, I want the NFL to explode. If Tebow wins this one, I'm hoping he wins about 7 more in a row. Tebow winning the superbowl while ruining a perfect 19-0 season for GB is the most entertaining outcome to the NFL season i can imagine, short of the Bears winning of course. Hell yeah

    OK. Don't know who would replace Deng, but wouldn't really care at that point. Someone at the full MLE.

    Worst bowl season ever. Thank god for the NBA.

    I think the biggest problem in losing Forte is that we lose the screen and under neath passing game. Now Martz will continue to call 5-7 step drops with impunity.
  12. SpongeWorthy
    The Big 10 is crap.
  13. SpongeWorthy
    lol, that was easy
  14. SpongeWorthy
    No, I'm pretty sure only over-sensitive Cutler fans are going to say a word about Forte and his knee.
  15. SpongeWorthy
    Right, all the hysterical teeth gnashing over Tebow, Sancez, et. al. is just a dry, sober analysis of their abilities as of today.
  16. SpongeWorthy
    Nice flop Jones
  17. SpongeWorthy
    Evaluating the cornerstone position in the entire sport based on a vacuum sealed snap shot is useless.

    Ok, so we're back to our original point about how it's dumb to declare X a terrible quarterback in their first couple seasons when they're winning games and improving (which Sanchez did and Tebow appears to be doing).
  19. SpongeWorthy
    The Jets running game has been largely terrible this year.
  20. SpongeWorthy
    Because it's so rare for young QB's to have good seasons in their first couple years in the league. Matt Ryan has been better all four years than Sanchez is this year. Flacco's first three years were all better and they're pretty even this year. Josh Freeman put up a 95.8 QB rating last year, though he's dropped off this year. Stafford has a 90.7 QB rating this year (his third in the league). Dalton and Newton are about equal with Sanchez but are both rookies. Obviously not every quarterback is going to step right into the league and be successful but that holds true for every position. Sanchez has a career 55% completion percentage and 44 TDs to 44 INTs. This year he's at 56.3 and 18:11. He's not good either. No one says Sanchez is better than Ryan or Flacco. Those other QBs you mentioned are fine and are having their ups and downs. They also played a LOT more college ball than Sanchez did.

    It's always a knee sprain until they do the MRI.
  22. SpongeWorthy
    What did you think of Mark Sanchez the last two years? On a largely successful developmental path for a young quarterback. Kind of like Tebow. That 56.3% completion percentage (28th in the league) sure is largely successful. Same thing for that 80.9 QB rating (19th). The problem with this new passing era of the NFL is that expectations have gotten out of wack. It's absurd to think these guys coming into the league should be completed products in the first few seasons.

    What about Bradford's crappiness

    ATL loses. GB and NO should win.
