Holy crap, Jeff Garcia just got popped.
-
You guys are lucky to have Moose. We miss him in Carolina, but I'm glad he's having great success in Chicago. :D
-
I would have bet my house against Notre Dame's schedule turning into what it did. For all the talk about how the Irish were in danger of starting 0-6, only three teams on ND's entire schedule this year have winning records: Michigan, MSU and USC. I wouldn't be surprised if ND has more trouble with the Vols than people will think. They'll be playing their butts off trying to avoid being 3-5.
-
So much for paring down the field of unbeatens. We nearly had three, but then stubborn Texas and UCLA decided to be great teams again. :wink:
-
Vince Young showed up as well, long TD run. Now 28-19 Cowboys, 11:30 left in the 3rd.
-
Yeah, it wasn't 2 yards, but Breaston definitely got a half-yard or so extra from the refs. Even when they leave Ann Arbor they still catch the breaks. Texas down 28-9 to Oklahoma St...they've got some work to do. Stanford still up 7-3 on UCLA in the 3rd... Two big upset possibilities right now.
-
Darn it. I knew it was too much to hope that we'd get something to cheer us up.
-
Texas falls behind Oklahoma State, 21-6 late in the 1st. hmmm...

Unless the Cubs are moving Murton to SS in a double switch. That would prove the existence of the "Dusty Dice". And be hilarious. While they're at it they should move ARam to CF, Lee to C and Barrett to closer. I think you are really on to something here, USS. Ramirez would give the Cubs their best offensive CF ever! And Lee would easily be the best offensive catcher in the majors. Plus, he is used to blocking throws in the dirt, so he has a leg up on the position defensively! Barrett's got a heck of an arm, too, so he could easily make the switch to closer. The main problem would be to get him to stop throwing the ball to 2nd base all the time. But I think Rothschild can get him pointed in the right direction. With Lee at catcher, the Cubs sign Konerko to play first. They bring up Pie to play 3B and move Dempster to RF. Done. Can Dempster hit? I suppose if he can't we can just bat him leadoff just like we put all our scrubs who can't hit in that spot. :) -
Michigan 7, NW 0. I wouldn't even bet half a penny that this is the last score of the game. Edit: And it wasn't. Tyrell Sutton fumbles, Leon Hall takes it back 83 yards for a score. 14-0 Wolverines. Edit 2: Basanez 62 yard TD pass and it's 14-7. 6:30 into the game and 21 points. No one is surprised.
-
This UM-NW game should be excellent. Btw, Ball State 31, NIU 17 - Final :D Huge upset win for the Cards.
-
Can Joe Tereshinski become a UGA legend? Under 3 mins left, and it's up to the backup QB, down 4 to the Gators. edit: Evidently not. Final, Florida 14 Georgia 10. Meanwhile, under 7 minutes left in De Kalb, IL, and BSU leads NIU 31 to 17. Come on Cards!
-
31-7 Cardinals. So much for the inevitable collapse. :D
-
NIU finally remembered that they're the 9th-ranked offense in the country. 24-7 Ball State lead now. Hopefully they can hold.
-
BSU 24, NIU 0. Where the heck has THIS team been? :D
-
BSU was the school that got crushed with suspensions, right? Do they have those guys back? Yes, the last of the suspensions were served at the Oct. 15 Toledo game. The Cardinals gave Bowling Green the fight of their lives even with the suspensions back in September and beat WMU in 5 overtimes on the road earlier, so the team's had a bit of a surreal season. I think they're on the right track though.
-
For any MAC-o-philes. Ball State - 17 N. Illinois - 0 Halftime The scoring-machine Huskies have amassed a grand total of 39 offensive yards against a Cardinal defense that coming in, had failed to give up fewer than 34 points in seven games this season. Go Cards! This would be a big win for the program. :D
-
Don't look now, but: UNC 16, Miami 7 8:42 left 2nd quarter
-
I don't usually get into the Big Ten, but Tim Brasic is playing pretty well for Illinois against Wisconsin, and the Badgers lead only 13-10 in the 2nd quarter.
-
It's supposed to be some kind of hurricane signal flag deal. Personally I don't get the sudden trend of college throwbacks, most of them look dumb anyway.

Matt Murton...is he good enough to start in LF in 2006??
Andy replied to ronsanto10's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Uh...Post All-Star numbers: Murton --> 316/377/515 Burnitz --> 237/300/387 I think he way outperformed Burnitz. Move that qualifier and you have a true statement. How many ABs did Murton have compared to Burnitz...Yeah sit down and shut the hell up....You can say Murton had a better season but you would be god damn lying he ad like 150 AB's compared tp JB's 400 or whatever he had....So die....Good day.... hahahahahaha wtf?! THAT'S RIGHT SABERMETRICS PEOPLE, NUMBER OF ABS IS NOW THE CORRECT WAY TO DETERMINE A PLAYER'S WORTH That means Neifi Perez and Jose Macias must have been pretty damn good then! :wink: -
I figured I'd post this here rather than giving it its own thread, but it looks like any Weis/NFL speculation is out the door, as ND is extending his contract five more years, taking it up to 2015. Weis' contract extended to 2015
-
LSU's game with N. Texas was supposed to be played on September 3rd, but some b**** named Katrina spoiled that idea.
-
I think Jim Hendry will put together a team capable of making the playoffs in 2006. Then again, he put together quite possibly the most talented Cub team in history in 2004 and Dusty and Co. ensured that we missed the playoffs that year. So you never know.

Furcal & the 4 other teams?
Andy replied to stuy119's topic in MLB Draft, International Signings, Amateur Baseball
I expect the Cards to stick with Mark for another year. He's a solid 2nd baseman and a nice guy to have near the bottom of the order. I can't see Jocketty throwing money at Furcal when he's got a more than satisfactory option in-house.
