  1. The Big Ten is all kinds of terrible this year... I don't think FSU would fall from the Top 25 if they lost to Clemson today. Clemson's not a terrible team, and 3-loss Michigan, who's in the Top 25, is no better than a hypothetical 3-loss Florida State.
  2. Charlie's usual halftime gems: Add "he's not bad" with a grin to describe Brady Quinn to that list. 28-7 ND at the break.
  3. Quinn to Fasano. 28-7 Irish. Under a minute left in the half.
  4. ND takes it right back down the field, Darius Walker finishes it up for the TD. 21-7 Irish.
  5. ND recovers the inevitable Navy triple-option fumble!
  6. And also, on that drive, Brady Quinn broke Jarious Jackson's single-season passing yards record, set in 1999. Congratulatons Brady!
  7. Travis Thomas takes it in for a score! 14-7 Irish with under 6 left in the half.
  8. ND responds by holding Navy on a 4th down right back. Still 7-7.
  9. Ya that is depressing I saw that too It also mentions the Royals being interested in Burnitz, the Cubs having interest in Mench, and Lee possibly signing an extension this offseason. I figured that when Lee exploded this year that JH would try to lock him up this spring. I'd applaud such a move. I've also heard Patterson + pitching prospect for Mench which sounds like a good deal.
  10. ND goes for it on 4th and 3 and Quinn throws it into double coverage, incomplete. Navy gets the ball in ND territory. This is why I hate playing Navy. They're not good enough for me to be pumped about the game but they always worry me.
  11. At this point, Brady Quinn could run to the sideline, grab a chair, run back to the pocket, sit down, read a Harry Potter book, get up and throw passes. He's getting absurd amounts of time to throw.
  12. Touchdown Navy. Longest drive of the season on the ND defense, time-wise. 7-7.
  13. Lamar Owens, the Navy QB, overthrows a wide open receiver in the end zone. 4th and inches for Navy at the ND 15 and they convert on a sneak.
  14. I don't think I've mentioned this lately, but thank the Lord that Urban Meyer turned ND down. Navy gets a break and doesn't get called for a delay of game when the clock said :00, they call timeout. 4th and 2 for the Middies inside the ND 40.
  15. Holy crap, Quinn threw it like 5 yards out of the endzone and Stovall still comes down with it. So much for the dropsies! 7-0 ND.
  16. Since NBA on NBC was retired, ND Football on NBC has become my favorite TV sports theme. :D
  17. Go Michigan... OSU-UM is the only game in which I ever root for Michigan.
  18. Yeah, there's absolutely no metric by which the Sox were better because of "smart ball".
  19. If we get both those guys and Walker starts at 2nd, we've got a contender. I'm not getting my hopes up for Giles though.
  20. Bulls/Jazz tonight at 8:30 ET at the UC. Fans outside Chicagoland can finally watch a Bulls game as this one is on the Superstation WGN. Chris Duhon is not expected to start, and he will be a game time decision with his knee contusion that kept him out on Wednesday. Expected starters for the Bulls: Hinrich Piatkowski Nocioni Songaila Chandler For the Jazz: Keith McLeod Gordon Giricek Andrei Kirilenko Mehmet Okur Greg Ostertag
  21. My plan for the day is thus: 1 pm - ND/Navy 4 pm - BSU basketball exhibition game 6 pm - listen to BSU/EMU on radio 8:30 pm - Bulls/Jazz on WGN Superstation This could be a fantastic day or an utterly depressing one.
  22. Lucky for us he does still walk in the number four spot, .374 OBP batting fourth over the past three years. I think Geech was trying to say that Adam Dunn's high OBP is more likely to produce benefits when he is on base for Lee and Ramirez as opposed to being on base for Ramirez and Barrett, Ramirez and Encarnacion or what have you.
  23. I respect your opinion Cardsfan, would you sign a shortstop for that money, especially if you were in the Cubs situation? Consider that the Cubs are competing with the White Sox and have to please the fans now. The Cubs are probably getting to the point where they need to please the fans regardless of the White Sox. The Cubs have been raising payroll the last few years, had a mega-talented team in 2004, and still have failed to deliver the desired results. IMO the margin for error is decreasing whether or not the Sox win it. Would anyone on this board not be calling for Giles/Dunn/etc. if the Sox had gone 70-92?
  24. Dude, we can't be signing any contracts longer than four years. It's too risky. - JH :roll:
  25. Those are even worse than the version they've been selling with the blue lettering.
