  1. I'm extremely against the idea of basing the opinions of entire divisions/conferences on bowl record/playoff record. Sample size is way too small. Atlanta lost because they ran into an awesome QB having the day of his life and New Orleans lost because they played a [expletive] game at the worst possible time. Who said the NFC South was all that anyway?
  2. The great Tom Brady still hasn't won a Super Bowl in six years and has now lost 3 straight playoff starts, all against teams seeded 5 or worse. Maybe the Bill Simmons-led Brady love parade can take a pause for a little while.
  3. I'm tired of the same old thing with the Colts, Pats or Steelers. Give me something new and entertaining. The Jets are fun as hell. I hope they win.
  4. Let's hope so because Boozer is now questionable for tomorrows game with a leg injury. Left the arena last night in a protective boot. Swirsky just tweeted that Boozer is now out tomorrow.
  5. The best Notre Dame can do is 9-9 in the Big East. I don't know what it is, but this team just turns into a giant [expletive] show when they're on the road.
  6. Other than Chalmers, the Heat shot 10/14 from 3.
  7. He's listed in the probable starting lineup, not that that's binding.
  8. Well this is from his press conference today, so there ya go... Haha. I kind of wish he had finished that sentence the way he wanted to - with "the one I just came from".
  9. Polar opposite of the McDaniels hire, not sure if this will be more successful, though. Should be interesting to see if he goes with Tebow or Orton. Fox coached my team for nine seasons, and I'd say Option C is probably the most likely for him.
  10. And the 4th time during the same period that they beat a #1 team (I'm not sure who the other #1 team they beat was). Probably a UNC team. My gut said Maryland actually, not sure though.
  11. Hoke will do well at Michigan. Probably not well enough to satisfy the psycho portion of the fan base, but well.
  12. Hoke hired according to the official UM site. That was quick.
  13. The coaches are supposed to vote for the BCS title game winner, but this isn't the first time there's been a defection or two. I believe Boise State got a couple of rebel votes after the 06 season as well.
  14. Take FWIW, but John Walters says he has a reliable source saying that Floyd will declare today.
  15. And yet they'll still somehow finish ahead of us this year.
  16. Rivera's the guy I wanted during our coaching hire when we ultimately ended up hiring McCarthy. That was the year before the Bears reached the Super Bowl. Since then, he's really beefed up his resume. I'm not really sure who's a better candidate out there than Rivera, if you're going to go the coordinator route. You could certainly do a lot worse than him. I like Rivera, he's clearly the sensible hire, especially considering the organization is such a train wreck right now that a surefire #1 pick basically decided he'd rather be in college than play for us. I just won't really believe things will improve much until we get some smart front office people.
  17. I couldn't decide who to root for because I was annoyed that both these schools stumbled into good coaches. Chizik won 5 games in 2 years at his last stop and Chip Kelly had never done anything noteworthy in his life prior to getting the Oregon job. Seems like just dumb luck to me. And was I the only person that noticed a blatant delay of game before Newton's QB draw run on 3rd and 12 on the final drive??
  18. I got my hopes up. Well, that and we were 3/16 from 3 and Marquette was 12/17. Best of luck to them having that happen again ever in life. ND really needs to be able to win on the road consistently. I understand it's very hard to do in college hoops, but we in particular seem to have major issues with it.
  19. It's looking like Ron Rivera will be the new hire for the Panthers. Meh.
  20. Green or Bowers probably going to be the two options for Carolina at the top of the draft. The owner likes having choirboys on his team so Green's jersey-selling flap may or may not be enough to lock in Bowers.
  21. Deion said on NFLN that it was the best playoff run he'd ever seen.
  22. He jumped straight to the Super Bowl congratulations, actually.
  23. Notre Dame creams 3-0 St. John's without Carleton Scott. I'm not sure what this team's ceiling is but I'm enjoying the [expletive] out of it.
  24. Hoke would be a nice hire for Stanford, IMO. And he'd also allow Michigan fans to not be scared out of their minds that he'd be on the verge of coaching there.
  25. I've said repeatedly he's the single worst sports play by play announcer on national television (network or cable). It really isn't even remotely close. Luckily for NFL fans, they only have to put up with him for 1 game a year.
